Pre-Design Study of Balai Warga Kelurahan Taman Sari's Building for Optimization Building Performance and Design Efficiency Strategies on Material Specification

Abstract

Building performance simulation is being increasingly deployed beyond the building design phase, pre-design phase to support building operation. Specifically, the predictive feature of the simulation-assisted building systems control strategy provides distinct advantages in view how the design on building works. Strategies can be done in the pre-design phase by optimizing the energy efficiency by using the building performance simulation with several criteria such as construction materials, indoor materials, sizes of openings, air conditioning system, water management system, number of equipments used, the lighting systems, and many more. Optimization building performance and energy efficiency strategies that are evaluated through thermal performance simulating of a design are the preparatory stages that need to be carried out before the design realized. This phase is required in this project because the priority is optimization and efficiency energy though this paper using software in the pre-design design stage. The container for an activity needs to be specifically cleared and material specifications need to be detailed from roofs to floor until shading and the pre-design get the right strategy on pre-design study phase. "In this paper, we use the Sefaira plugin in the sketch-up modeling application. This application can calculate the total energy used by buildings in a year. Items that affect the total calculation (of energy) simulation are the (criteria mentioned above) material, window area, and the climate of the environment (By changing the material, window area, we are trying to improve the optimization of the energy used in this building within one year.
