The current work analyses the energy performance of a building at early design and planning stage for sustainability. A multistory facility has been simulated in virtual (3D) environment using Building Information Modelling process. Energy analysis was performed Autodesk Insight360 terms kWh/m2 /yr. Sixteen (16) story building, assessed its proposed location, 8° clockwise w.r.t true North. stud...

The Philippines is in a tropical location where rainwater abundant for the frequent rain year. Rainwater becomes waste flowing down drains causing flood, especially urban areas. This problem initiates local governments some cities to adapt and implement Green programs that require installation utilization of catchment system. Though this program addresses control flood caused by rain, generatio...

The use of hyperbolic paraboloid roofing (HPRs) is increasingly common in contemporary architecture, especially for buildings with large spans, making tensile structures or light shells. These are very sensitive to wind loads because their weight. In particular, they tend oscillate under action, generating complex pressure distributions and cable instability. Therefore, this shape structure, th...
