Ecoperfil - Sustainable Urban Systems
Energy performance of buildings:
- Evaluation and definition of construction details to enhance the passive performance of buildings;
- Design of heating/cooling systems which use renewable energy sources and/or are energy efficient;
- Calculation and design of natural lighting options and artificial lighting optimization;
- Modelling, calibration and dynamic thermal analysis of buildings;
- Verification of the most recent national building thermal/energy standards (RCCTE and RSECE);
- Building Energy Certification, following the national Energy Certification Scheme for buildings (RCCTE).
Water consumption performance in buildings:
- Analysis of water consumption and design of efficient water supply, recycling and capturing of rainwater.
Economical performance of buildings:
- Economical and technical viability analysis, in the long term, of energy efficiency, renewable energy sources and water reduction measures;
Global sustainability analysis for buildings:
- Ecological analysis of building sites;
- Global sustainability analysis of buildings, isolated or in groups;
- Bioclimatic architecture.
Materials, reuse and recycling:
- Within existent constraints, design buildings for future deconstruction;
- Use, in either new or renovated buildings, as long as technical and economical viable, recycled materials or components;
- Environmental impact calculation for construction materials;
- Management of Construction and Demolition Waste.
Engineering disciplines:
- Design for municipal approval of different engineering disciplines - structural, electrical, mechanical, wastewater and water supply, thermal, acoustical and renewable energy equipment;
- Design for construction (detail) of the referred engineering disciplines;
- Construction work supervision.
