This presentation will explore the key principles of passive design, a sustainable approach to architecture that reduces energy consumption and enhances occupant comfort by utilizing natural resources such as sunlight, wind, and thermal mass. We will cover essential techniques including:
Orientation and Layout: Designing buildings to optimize sunlight and airflow.
Natural Ventilation: Utilizing windows, vents, and open spaces to circulate air.
Thermal Mass: Using materials that absorb and store heat to regulate indoor temperatures.
Insulation and Shading: Minimizing heat gain and loss with proper insulation and strategically placed shading devices.
Daylighting: Maximizing natural light to reduce reliance on artificial lighting.

BUILDING MATERIAL FOR WALL Cavity Wall - With insulation -Without insulation Cavity walls give better thermal insulation than solid walls. The space provided between two leaves of cavity reduce heat transmission into the building from outside U Value - Solid brick wall: 2 W/m²K. -Cavity wall with no insulation: 1.5 W/m²K. -Insulated wall: 0.18 W/m²K.

FOR WINDOW Energy Saving Glass Low-Emissivity Glass Double panel Triple panel Hard Coat Soft Coat Bin Saram Designs Delta Design & Engineering Pvt. Ltd. Lahore
LOW-E GLASS This glass varies from normal clear glass in that one side of the glass has a special metal Coating, technically known as a low emissitivity , or Low E. coating. of heat or cold Characteristics of low-e glass : Low-e Glass stop the ultraviolet rays. It enhance the visible Light to get in the space. Infrared light or heat energy, is transmitted as heat into a building, Low-e Glass stop the heat and keep the space comfortable.

REFLECTIVE ROOF A reflective roof coating is applied to roofs to help reflect more sunlight from the surface, thus reducing the amount of heat absorbed by the structure. Bin Saram Designs Delta Design & Engineering Pvt. Ltd. Lahore

INSULATED ROOF Roof insulation material is made from the two different layers of aluminum foils sandwiched with the inner layer of foam, plastic bubble sheet or fiber glass . It reflects around 97% of radiant heat from the roof surface and prevent energy and higher temperature penetrating inside.

SHADING DEVICES NORTH SIDE To control sun penetration to the interior of buildings it is important to provide exterior shading as a part of the architectural envelope design. The north elevation essentially does not require occurs. At this time of day the sun angle is so low that horizontal projections would be useless as shading devices. • It is best to provide fenestration on the north elevation as there will be very little solar heat gain Bin Saram Designs Delta Design & Engineering Pvt. Ltd. Lahore
SOUTH SIDE The south elevation allows for the easiest control of solar energy. Shading devices are normally designed as horizontal projections above the windows, Such shading devices can be designed to completely eliminate sun Rays in the summer Allow for complete sun penetration during the winter when such is desired for passive heat gain. EAST AND WEST SIDE The east and west elevations are both difficult to shade “architecturally”. The sun angles in the morning and afternoon are low enough to stop using overhangs. The morning sun is normally cooler and less offensive than the heat and glare of the late afternoon sun . Bin Saram Designs Delta Design & Engineering Pvt. Ltd. Lahore

ORIENTATION Take advantage of climate features such as sun and cooling breezes. Orientation means locating living areas like the lounge, room on the north side of the house, with windows having clear access to sunlight even in mid-winter. Effective Good orientation reduces the need for extra heating and cooling. The orientation of kitchen should be towards the east to allow the UV rays to destroy the germs that tend to multiply in the presence of moisture & food. Orientation provides a minimum of about five hours of useful solar heating a day. Bin Saram Designs Delta Design & Engineering Pvt. Ltd. Lahore

EARTH BERMING Earth berming reduces outside air infiltration, keeps temperatures cool in summer and warm in winter as the earth’s temperature at a depth of a Few meters remains almost stable yearly Berms may cover a part of the ground floor, sometimes entire buildings, provided daylight and ventilation requirements are taken care of. Needs adequate water-proofing measures. Basements are similarly cool and preferred spaces . Bin Saram Designs Delta Design & Engineering Pvt. Ltd. Lahore
