Energy and Environment in Architecture

Overview :
This technical guides deals with environmental issues facing every architect at the concept stage of designing a building. Used during the initial design stage, the unique manual design tool, LT Method (2.1), helps the
architect determine the energy efficiency of alternative design
schemes. It predicts the energy use for lighting, heating, cooling and
ventilating.
Explaining the principles behind the LT Method, this
book will give designers the confidence to develop their own response
to energy efficient design. In addition, the book deals with other
environmental issues such as noise, thermal comfort and natural
ventilation design. A variety of case studies provide a critique of
real buildings and highlight good practice.
