Most Important Goals Pilot a building with 4 apartments duplex industrial structure, low-floor area. Achieving a high level in a building bioclimatic based compound semi-detached houses. 2. Architectural Solution The building has a simple structure as a set of rock crystals twinned, and the houses are attached, without more, above and next to each other. The houses are self-regulating heat input by controlling solar and geothermal underground system architecture. 3. Sustainable Analysis 1. Resource Optimization 1.1. Natural Resources. They take full advantage of resources such as the sun (to generate hot water and provide natural lighting to all households), the breeze, the land (to cool the housing), rain water (reserve water tanks for watering the garden), Heather for shading of the roof gardens ... .. On the other hand, has installed water saving devices on taps, showers and tanks of the complex. 1.2. Resources made. The materials used are maximized, reducing potential waste through proper project and effective management (concrete, precast concrete blocks lighter, ceramic tile, woodwork, painting, ...). 1.3. Resources recovered, reused and recycled. The vast majority of building materials can be recovered (flooring, woodwork, glass, wood beams, girders, deck, walkways, cabinets, wood coatings, sunscreens, health ...). Even some of the supporting structure-based lightweight concrete precast panels can be recovered and reused in the construction of a new building. On the other hand, has promoted the use of recycled and recyclable materials such as polypropylene water pipes, drain pipes of polyethylene, OSB plywood boards for interior doors, plywood panels for coatings, recycled glass countertop kitchen and windows, etc ... 2. Decreased energy consumption 2.1. Construction. The building has been constructed with minimal energy consumption. The materials used were manufactured with a minimum amount of energy. 2.2. Use Due to its characteristics bioclimatic homes have a very low energy consumption standard. The houses are heated by electric storage greenhouse night rate. The hot water is generated by solar heating of the sensors built into the south facade of the whole. The homes are cooled by geothermal architectural systems, mechanical systems and do not require conditioning, so no energy consumption. 2.3. Dismantling The vast majority of materials used can be easily recovered for reuse in the construction of another building (flooring, woodwork, glass, wood beams, girders, deck, walkways, cabinets, wood coatings, sunscreens, pergolas heather, health ...). 3. Using alternative energy sources The energy used is of two types: solar thermal (solar captors to produce the ACS), and geothermal energy (architectural system to cool the air, taking advantage of existing low temperatures underground in the tunnels beneath the garage). 4. Reduced waste and emissions The houses do not generate any emissions and do not generate any waste, except organic. 5. Improving health and wellbeing All materials used are environmentally friendly and healthy and have no emissions that can affect human health. Similarly, the dwellings are naturally ventilated, and maximize natural lighting, which creates a healthy environment and provides the best possible quality of life for building occupants. 6. Reduced price of the building and maintenance The homes have been designed rationally, eliminating redundant items, unnecessary or gratuitous, allowing construction to a conventional price, despite the ecological equipment 4. Highlights Innovations - System architecture soda, using a set of ducts that extend through the building. Some fresh air ducts lead generated architectural underground galleries, and other means "soak up" the air inside the building, "chimney effect".
