EA4312 Environmental Design Studio- III Syllabus:

EA4312 Environmental Design Studio- III Syllabus – Anna University PG Syllabus Regulation 2021

OBJECTIVES:

 To develop creative skills, abilities, judgment and control in the design of built environment.
 The student should be able to have a whole building design approach for energy efficiency.

The detailed scope of the design project is not limited to the following

 Designing eco house, green roofs and walls, building with environmentally friendly technologies, sustainable landscape design, green cities. Conserving traditional buildings for sustainability.
 Designing to mitigate climate change. Building design through simulation.
 Design through biological and ecological principles.
 Design/Retrofitting of buildings/campuses for energy efficiency.
 Focus should be on buildings/campuses which are conventionally energy guzzlers.
 The project submission should be in the form of drawings, models and reports

TOTAL: 150 PERIODS

COURSE OUTCOMES:

CO1 Design buildings which are ecologically sensitive considering all traditional and contemporary principles and practices of sustainability.
CO2 To balance human needs with environmental concerns in architectural design.
CO3 Ability to use energy simulation tools and its result analysis
CO4 Ability to Understand the process of building retrofitting for energy efficiency
