Description

Passive housing in the desert

Desert regions occupy over one-fifth of earth's land and represents five percent of world population, of which 94% lives in developing countries. It is these regions which lack sufficient economy and resources, which combined with harsh climatic conditions and aridity creates inhabitable conditions. Thar desert in Rajasthan, India has still seen a tremendous increase in migration of unprivileged class, as it offers expansion in already overcrowded country. It is imperative that attention be paid for housing these economically weaker sections of society.

Jaisalmer, Rajasthan, India Site 27,500 m² Feb 2014-May2013

Acknowledging this proposed housing project draws inspiration from traditional architecture of 'Jaisalmer'. The scheme combines passive environmental strategies and social integration to link live, work and shelter at the same place. The site and clustering derives character from social cohesion, skill & income generation, water harvesting, agriculture and climate responsiveness. Extensive field studies have been performed to form the background of inhabiting people needs, comfort and lifestyle.

JAISALMER CITY

During the field study a variation of 2°c has been observed between courtyard and wind pavilions air temperature in summer afternoon.

The recorded daylighting level were very comfortable, as smaller and distributed windows helped in maintaining visual comfort.

The combined effect of ducts and cross ventilation through smaller openings facilitates efficient indoor air movement through the building. The wind speed in most spaces remained at a comfortable level of 0.4-0.6 m/s which had an highly favorable thermal benefit and were found much more comfortable than to the spaces which had lesser or zero air current.

The field studies depicts that traditional buildings ‘haveli's’ of jaisamer exhibits responsive relationship between built form, design elements and construction materials with its climate . Uneven built form for shading and radiative exchange, enclosing courtyard & designing vertical circulation as wind shafts for efficient ventilation, use of adaptable shutters, incorporating heavy mass in roof & wall construction for thermal control and proposing shading devices, screens and finned surfaces for solar control possesses valuable stabilizing influence on the internal environment .

The data loggers study was conducted on 9th July,2013, three dataloggers were installed in rooms on different floor which have been categorized into living and bedroom following their original use. The average high temperature for the day was found to be between 35-36ºc for all three space and the maximum difference from external average high temperature was of 4ºc. The night purge effect brought the indoor temperature to 28ºc at morning providing a reduction of 6ºc.

The landscape of the region is flat and barren with scarce vegetation. The site has an access from north and is affected by strong dry wind from S-SW. At site level, landscape features are the first defense against the harsh climate. A combination of man-made landscape strategies has been employed, keeping in line with the historic wind architecture of the Jaisalmer City. The first defense strategy is man-made Earth Dyke; it serves the purpose of protection from sandstorm. Also, using the self made contours of the site water harvesting during the rainy season is proposed.

The control of the microclimate has been achieved in the design through; clustering and the ability of the cluster to organize daily activities in spaces and time in accordance to the comfort level of the areas which are most acceptable at a given time. It also prevents heat gain and ensures movement of cooler air through building and open courtyards, the Stepped Well is the central focus to this for evaporative cooling to the mass.

In terms of construction, a 350 mm stone wall construction with 100 mm AAC block and 50 mm insulation has been used for unit walls which offer a combined U value of 0.37w/m²k and thermal lag of 10 hours and brick wall has been used for internal partitions(U=2.07w/m²k). Since, the roof gets significant amount of radiation an additional layer of 200mm earth has been used over a concrete slab with AAC block and insulation.

THERMAL STUDIES

unit type -1 CASE-1 BASE CASE

SECTION 2

The thermal studies are shown for Unit type 1 and loads due to lighting, equipments and occupancy were considered according to the field studies.

The model was initially analysed without compartmentalization of unit to observe the internal loads as a whole . The constructions assigned to the model were based on the locally used construction techniques. Traditionally, the floor slabs are composed of wooden structural frame, covered with reed and earth layers, for the model, this was replaced with 150 mm concrete slabs, having the same thermal mass and thermal lag and the walls have a high thermal mass and thermal lag of 7.3 hours.

The windows were modeled to follow the existing night time ventilation pattern, i.e from 23.00 hours to 8.00 hours the window aperture is completely open. After defining the internal conditions and analyzing the base case, simulations were performed to analyze the effect of various passive strategies on the units, which were applied at the massing level.

The upper and lower floor unit type were simulated for a typical summer week to observe the range of internal resultant temperatures. The result showed a variation of about 20C between the maximum and minimum case during the day-time. Further, unit type were compartmentalized to analyse how the different spaces within the unit behaved thermally.

As a result of compartmentalization the resultant temperature in the bedroom and living room start to fall in the thermal comfort range, despite the high occupancy, equipment load and solar gains.The internal gains in the Kitchen contributed majorly to the higher resultant temperature of the units. To mitigate this effect, the kitchen is being segregated from the rest of the unit with higher thermal mass.

WIND ASSESSMENT

Wind analysis showing results of case-3 from various sections

1 base case

2 base case + sunken ground

Wind studies were conducted to confirm the effect of earthen dykes in controlling wind from SSW quadrant. Three cases were formed, In case-1 the massing was tested on a flat ground. For case-2, the sunken lower ground was analyzed and finally, in case-3 the combined proposal of earthen dyke and lower ground was tested. The input parameter of wind speed was taken as 6m/s which is also the average high velocity during typical summer months. case-3 showed exceptional stable wind flow and wind speed were found to be less than 0.8m/s.

The combined effect of earthen dyke, lower ground and massing was able to generate a enhanced microclimate for the site. Further, analysis of case3 was performed from various parts of the building to confirm the efficiency of the strategy for overall site. Series of modifications were being done in earthen ground and massing layout to get the results which provide an uniform solution.

The proposal has been successful in protecting north side from strong dry winds, It is extremely important to protect these areas from wind as it serves the purpose of entrance and caters to most of the outdoor activities in the site.

Entrance and Approach The entrance to the site is through the North between two shaped earthen dykes. The cluster can be reached through shaded social gathering spaces which are also pathways leading to the main mass. Shading has been achieved by canopies, and trees in the spaces. The canopy derives its concept from the ancient pavilion architecture which had cupola-like structures popularly known as 'Chattris'. Canopies can be arranged in clusters to achieve larger spaces which bring about natural flow and dimensional limits to a particular space.

STEP WELL

open north facade

The deeply carved latticework/ jaaliâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s is a vital component to minimize heat gain on surface, as they increase convective transfer of heat due to increased surface areas. Screens with tessellations serves three purposes in this design; ventilation, diffused lighting, and privacy.

Inspiring from famous ancient stepwells, the proposed shaded step-well utilizes a combination of evaporative cooling and ground coupling to keep the lower ground public floor cool during the hottest months of the year. In contrast, to traditional step well which were very deep so as to keep water shaded. The proposed step well is 8m deep with shaded roof which has a dual advantage of less evaporation and greater air cooling potential.

Description

Heygate Estate

The project is a proposal for revitalization of a low-income social housing estate built during post world war in the 1970's which had over time became the ‘most stark example of post war urban decay’. The scheme intends for reuse of existing block and proposes spatial configuration which are environmentally conscientiousness alongwith providing better living quality for the present and the future. The final design proposes to regenerate the entire site within the structural constraints of the existing building as well as integrate it with the rest of the proposed future master plan.

WIND & SOLAR ANALYSIS Wind Exposure

The overlaying of sunlight hours and wind speed brought to attention the parts of the site that were both shaded as well as windy through most of the year. These spaces were towards Heygate Street to the Northwest of the Kingshill block which due to its giant proportions of 140 meters length and 36 meters height, does not allow penetration of daylight to these parts, also the impenetrable nature of its design further aids the channelling of winds in some parts and forms a blockage for wind creating turbulence.

DESIGN STRATEGY

OPENNESS The existing building due to its non-porosity creates a block between north and south side. This disrupts solar penetration outdoor spaces in north and hence, void spaces have been proposed in massing to allow for solar gains in the north side outdoor spaces. These voids also function as transitional spacess on every floor.

BALCONY The proposed pull out balconies on the south facade allows for a sit-out spaces during sunny hours. movable screens alongwith balconies are being proposed for adaptable use during winter time. These balconies provide a sense of outdoor and nature for every unit.
