ENERGY ASPECT IN SUSTAINABLE DESIGN USING THE EXAMPLE OF MULTI-CRITERIA METHODS OF BUILDING EVALUATION
Journal Title: Structure and Environment - Year 2017, Vol 0, Issue 2
Abstract
The article defines the concept of sustainable development. It shows the characteristics of sustainable buildings and sustainable development goals achieved in the design of new buildings. The article refers to the “passive house” standard and points to the aspect of energy efficiency as a key factor in the assessment of buildings in multi-criteria methods of LEED, BREEAM, Green Building and the method developed by the author of the article. The paper also emphasizes the need for applying multi-criteria evaluation of design solutions using specialized computer programs in the process of sustainable design. A group of industry experts, including professionals in the field of building energy assessment, should be involved in the process of assessment and verification of the applied solutions. Examples of buildings designed and erected in Poland, characterized by high quality design solutions in the field of energy efficiency have been provided. These developments have been awarded the Passivhaus, Green Building, LEED, BREEAM certificates
