Building Features and Objectives
Objective Feature Notes
Building ControlBuilding   Management   System (BMS)The brains of the smart building; connected to thermal, occupancy, and other sensors and actively controls windows, lighting, and shading
Direct Solar GainSouth-facing windowsGlazed area in office, research prep room, and entryway facing South
  Clerestory windowsVertical south-facing windows of large area in clerestory atop roof
  Sun spaceRoom with closed doors & interior window absorbs heat during day; open at night to distribute heat
Indirect Solar GainTrombe wallSelective surface absorbs visible solar radiation but does not emit infrared; stores heat in thermal mass
Solar Gain ControlLight shelvesControlled by BMS, reflect daylight into office space or permit shading
  Venetian blindsControlled by BMS, exterior shading devices in front of clerestory windows open and close as necessary to maintain appropriate temperature and daylighting
  Operable awningAdditional shading on south windows with seasonal control
  Deciduous vinesTrellises above windows for growing vines that provide shade in summer and lose their leaves in winter
Active HeatingRadiant slab floorWarm water heated by natural gas circulates within concrete floor slab, heating the building by radiation
Heat ConservationInsulationVarious walls insulated with foam panels or cellulose fiber
  Low-e glazingLow emissivity in the infrared range prevents radiative heat loss from window surface
  Low-e paintPaint on interior walls prevents radiant heat transfer
  Airlock entryDouble-door airlock foyer prevents excessive air changes as people enter and exit
  Window & door sealingReduce air infiltration to a maximum of 0.5 air changes per hour
Thermal MassConcrete floor & wallsInsulated 4" concrete slab floor, 8" concrete masonry and 2" masonry veneer in internal walls store warmth in daytime and release in evening; store coolth during summer nights
  Rammed earth wallThermal mass wall by entryway to store warmth & coolth; uses local earth material
Passive CoolingHigh clerestory with north-facing openingsNatural convection draws warm air upward; clerestory windows and skylights operated by BMS
DaylightingClerestory, south windows and skylightsLarge glazed area allows sufficient sunlight to penetrate even in winter to require minimal interior lighting
  Light shelvesAdjustable light shelves reflect incoming sunlight as necessary for optimal angle
High-Efficiency   LightingT-5 fluorescentsHigh-efficiency fixtures
Lighting ControlOccupancy sensorsBMS turns off unneeded lights
Renewable Energy   GenerationPhotovoltaic systemRoof-integrated 3.3 kW thin-film PV with grid-interconnect inverter typically meets at least building load

Material Characteristics
ConcreteUltra-low content of (energy- and COÉ-intensive) Portland cement; replaces with rice hull ash and fly ash (organic, recycled materials). Innovative mix that requires a longer curing process but results in superior structural stability and durability than conventional mixes.
Cellulose fiber   insulationOrganic, non-hazardous material with high R-value.
Structural wall panelsIntegrated panels with expanded CFC-free polystyrene foam core; offer low weight, high R-value, low infiltration.
Rammed earth wallThermal mass wall made from local earth, rammed into form.
LumberWood posts, beam and trusses from reused or locally salvaged lumber wherever possible, else from sustainably harvested trees; also recycled plastic lumber.
TileBathroom tile made from recycled glass.
Paints and varnishesLow or zero content of volatile organic compounds (VOC).
RoofGalvalume standing seam metal roof is recyclable; provides substrate for PV laminate; clerestory roof from recycled copper.
Photovoltaic systemThin-film amorphous silicon laminate minimizes embodied energy in PV manufacture; grid-intertie design avoids need for toxic lead-acid batteries.
