  • The methodology for modeling building energy consumption is well established for energy saving calculation in the temperate zone both for performance-based energy retrofitting contracts and measurement and verification (M&V) projects. Mostly, statistical regression models based on utility bills and outdoor dry-bulb temperature have been applied to baseline monthly and annual whole building energy use. This paper presents the application of neural networks (NN) to model landlord energy consumption of commercial buildings in Singapore. Firstly, a brief background information on NN and its application on the building energy research is provided. Secondly, five commercial buildings with various characteristics were selected for case studies. Monthly mean outdoor dry-bulb temperature ($T_0$), Relative Humidity (RH) and Global Solar Radiation (GSR) are used as network inputs and the landlord monthly energy consumption of the same period is the output. Up to three years monthly data are taken as training data. A forecast has been made for another year for all the five buildings. The performance of the NN analysis was evaluated using coefficient of variance (CV). The results show that NNs is powerful at predicting annual landlord energy consumption with high accuracy.

  • The increasingly high prices for oil, the exhaustion of fossil fuels as well as concern about global warming are driving rapid growth of alternative sources of energy in the world. The active solution for global environment and exhaustion of energy sources is to develop and popularize the technologies to use natural energy such as sunlight, wind, and water. PV(Photovoltaic) modules are efficient devices that has been considered a logical material for use in buildings. Recent advanced BIPV(Building Integrated PV) technology have rapidly made PVs suitable for direct integration into construction in the world. Recently, building has been higher and higher. Tall buildings have many advantages for BIPV such as wide facade area and no shading effect by the surrounding buildings. However. BIPV has not been applied for tall building facade yet. Therefore, the purpose of the research is to develop suitable BIPV for tall buildings and to put these technologies to practical use. Therefore, the purpose of the study is to investigate unification of BIPV to curtain wall to apply BIPV on tall building through research into advanced application of overseas BIPV cases.

  • When faced with new projects, such as high-rise, complex, free-formed, and sustainable buildings, numerous participants in the building Industry use Building Information Modeling (BIM) technology. In 2009, the use of BIM spread to more contractors than eyer before. This paper aims to study the definition and characteristics of BIM, and to analyze Korean BIM application problems. Solutions for the application of BIM to the Korean Construction Industry suggested, by studying cases from developed counties and from Korea.

  • Buildings, energy and the environment are key issues that the building professions and energy policy makers have to address, especially in the context of sustainable development. With more tall buildings constructed in China, the impact on energy consumption and carbon emission would be great from buildings (2% increase of carbon dioxide annually between 1971 and 2004). The imperative was to investigate the building energy performance of high-rise in different climate zones and identify the key design parameters that impose significantly influence on energy performance in sustainable building design. Design implications on glazing performance, sizing of the ventilation fans, renewable energy application on high-rise building design are addressed. Combination of effective sustainable building design strategies (e.g., building envelope improvement, daylight harvesting, advanced lighting design, displacement ventilation, chilled ceiling etc.) could contribute more than 25% of the total building energy consumption compared to the international building energy code.

  • Many government in the world have conducted building energy performance certification program to reduce building energy consumption. In this study, a reference building and its HVAC system was modeled, and the energy load and consumption were estimated by the ECO2 program. The software is a simple building energy simulation program based on monthly calculated method. The building energy efficiency rating the the reference building was 1+ under baseline condition. The simulation results showed that the insulation performance slightly affected building energy load and consumption, but light density had a significant effect on them. The application of geothermal heat pumps gave improvement of building energy efficiency rating but it could not make it possible to get zero energy building(ZEB) certification. The ZEB 5 certification could be achieved by using photovoltaics, however getting better grade was difficult. The simulation results showed that the ZEB 4 certification, one grade higher than ZEB 5, could be attained by using more than one renewable energy source such as geothermal and solar energy in this study.

  • Recently, the application of BIM has been continuously expanded according to various government policies, and the application performance is being analyzed in BIM projects such as roads and railways. In line with this trend, the government is making additional efforts to introduce full-scale design BIM. The BIM design in the public sector is directly related to the estimated price. However, looking at the current status of BIM introduction, there is no support system in place for calculating the estimated price. Therefore, this study intends to analyze the priority activity that is easy to develop BIM unit price among the construction standard unit Price of construction work. In this study, in order to derive the BIM-based priority activity, BIM application statements and application guidelines were analyzed. As a result of the analysis, cast-in-place concrete construction (civil engineering) and reinforced concrete construction (architecture) were deduced as suitable construction activities for the preferential application of BIM. Since the results presented in this study are a rough analysis, it is judged that additional detailed analysis is necessary for the future.

  • The rapid development of Kuala Lumpur has seen numerous new and high-rise buildings introducing Building Automation System (BAS). Whilst effective application of Knowledge Management (KM) within BAS is the pre-requisite for the achievement of optimum BAS performance, there has been little research undertaken to investigate if have been the case. This paper presents a research undertaken to get a view of how KM applies in BAS in six (6) selected case-study buildings in Kuala Lumpur, all operating with the 'one-system' M&E workstation control BAS. The emergent findings positively suggest that adequate KM approaches were employed within their BAS management processes, but further studies would be necessary to determine the extent of their application and effectiveness.
