Planning and Design of Net Zero Energy Residential Building: Project Report

This document provides an overview of a project to plan and design a net zero energy residential building. The objectives are to design a building with net zero energy consumption and to compare it to a conventional building. The project will involve functional planning of a residential building, designing the load-bearing structure and solar panels, and comparing the energy consumption and room temperatures of the net zero and conventional buildings. The methodology will include selecting a site suitable for renewable energy, designing the building layout and solar system to maximize renewable resource use, and evaluating the design.

PLANNING AND DESIGN OF NET ZERO ENERGY


RESIDENTIAL BUILDING
OVERVIEW

1. OBJECTIVE

i. Design a building with Net zero energy concept.


ii. To eliminate the necessity of active energy loads on the building.
iii. Comparing the net zero energy building with conventional building.

2. NECESSITY

The basic necessities of such a building are:


i. As the country is developing day by day the consumption of power is also
very high.
ii. Now if we are going for NZERB building we can save energy locally which
mean to save energy in global level.
iii. The use of this technology used in residential buildings has shown huge
amount savings in the electricity bill.
iv. The proper design and alignment of the building can make the building
cheaper than that of the conventional type of buildings.
v. Usage of hollow bricks and avoidance of columns and beams will result in
lowering of temperature inside the building
vi. To achieve sustainability.

3. SCOPE

i. Functional planning of G+1 Residential building


ii. Design of load bearing structure using hollow bricks
iii. Design of solar panels
iv. Comparison of room temperature between NZERB and conventional building
v. Comparison of energy consumption between NZERB and conventional
building.
4. METHODOLOGY

This entire project is a planning and design in nature and the methodology followed in
this project is listed as below.
i. Selection of site where renewable energy is available
ii. Study the climate conditions of area
iii. Aligning the building to utilize maximum amount of renewable resources
iv. Planning and design of proposed NZERB building
v. Comparison of the NZERB building with other conventional building

5. MAJOR DESIGN EXPERIENCE

Design experience in the following areas has been gained during the course of the
project
i. Design of slabs

ii. Design of footings

iii. Design of wall using Hollow bricks

iv. Design of solar panels

6. REALISTIC DESIGN CONSTRAINTS

i. Economic: Building shall be designed such that the entire energy requirements are
met by solar energy only due to shortage of conventional energy.
ii. Sustainability Constraints: The design shall be such that the requirement of
cooling do not fluctuate throughout the year.
iii. Economic Constraint: The materials adopted for construction are economical
compared to conventional materials.
