Aims
To develop the student's skills to conduct design and in-use building performance evaluation, and use data and model to identify performance issues related to building operation in practice.
Learning Outcomes
1.
Evaluate the performance gap among compliance model, building design, operation, and in-use baseline
2.
Identify performance issues in practice, including technical issues relating to construction, commissioning, operations and controls or malfunction in systems and equipment.
3.
Interpret and analyse data though analysing design documents and operation and maintenance manuals, spot-measurements, longitudinal metering and monitoring, and stakeholder interviews.
4.
Develop a dynamic thermal simulation model, calibrate to actual energy use and create in-use baseline model, and interpret and analyse data from dynamic energy model.
5.
Work effectively as part of a collaborative professional team.
