Description:
The Harim office building has been designed with two purposes: a branding image for the company and a revenue producing property.
The Harim Group is the largest producer of meat products in South Korea. While real estate property in Seoul is very expensive, the company saw the visibility of a signature building as very important to their brand. Even with a small footprint, the ability to build more space needed by the company guaranteed a revenue stream for the future.
To enhance the brand of the company as a provider of healthy and nutritional products, the idea of a sustainable building design was very important. To establish and meet goals for building performance, different tools have been used in the design process. While initial models were created in Form-Z, performance goals were established in D-Profiler, with more specific analyses produced utilizing Vasari, Eco-Tect and ComFen. These tools will be used to evaluate HVAC options, including natural ventilation and under-floor air distribution, as well as lighting options.
During this program participants will:
· Discover how the Beck Group designed the Hiram Office Building project to reflect the brand of a company through a sustainable design process.
· Explore how technology was used to analyze the design in order to determine its performance in relation to its sustainable design.
· Determine how to integrate a 3D model with energy analysis tools such as Ecotect and Vasari.
· Identify tools to evaluate a 3D model for HVAC options, including natural ventilation and under-floor air distribution, as well as lighting options.
