Computational environmental design using Ladybug Tools_part1

The parametric and generative designing tools changed the view of the pro-environmental dimension of today’s architecture. When adopting CAD/CAM technological solutions the architects re-solve the relation between the form of buildings, materials used, energy management systems, and pro-environmental properties. The synergy of the latest technologies with natural, traditional, and environment-friendly solutions has gained unprecedented recognition. Environmental objectives are effectively implemented at an increasing scale. Environmental construction supported by the latest digital technologies may soon constitute a bridge between huge urban structures and the natural environment, satisfying the needs of both sides. Parametric design methods allow you to very quickly generate dozens of variations on a project problem, keeping imposed by the investor environmental standards."

The course will discuss the Environmental site analysis  using Ladybug tools with Rhinoceros 3D and Grasshopper 3D, it will cover :

o How to get Climate Data & analyze it

o Micro-climate study

Course Content:

** Introduction to Rhinoceros 3d and Grasshopper 3d

** Ladybug 

- Climate Data Analysis

*Temperature

*Humidity

*Wind rose/ wind profile
* Radiation rose

*Outdoor comfort study

*Bioclimatic chart

* Solar radiation Study

Course outcome:

- Students will learn how to obtain climate data of the site and analyze it.

- Think about the building concept

- Decide the building form & orientation

- Have some thoughts about building materials & passive techniques that will be used in the building design

Note :

This part of the course includes  Rhino + Grasshopper 3d basics and Environmental site analysis using ladybug,  but the Energy simulation part ( part 03) is not included and it will be added soon

  يحتوي هذا الكورس على  مقدمة عن أساسيات الراينو و الجراسهوبر 3دي  بالاضافة الى جزء التحليل البيئي للموقع فقط , ولا يحتوي على محاكاة آداء الطاقة في المباني باستخدام الهني بي على ان يتم اضافته قريبا ككورس منفصل ان شاء الله
