Comparison of Conventional Materials with Advance Materials to Operational Costs and Energy Efficiency Based on Sefaira

Abstract

In the design process, consideration of energy efficiency is one of the crucial aspects of a design. Energy efficiency will affect the amount of carbon dioxide emissions released. In addition, energy efficiency also affects operational costs that will be maintained by the manager. During the construction process, conventional lightweight brick wall often takes longer to study than panel-shaped materials or modules. Currently there is an assumption that conventional lightweight brick wall has little influence on energy consumption and operational costs, so it is necessary to review the exploration of the use and composition of materials that can respond to the energy context in the surrounding area. This paper describes comparison of conventional materials with advance materials to operational costs and energy efficiency which in this case is apartment design from 3 rd year architecture studio. The research uses Sefaira simulation methods and values need to be reviewed such as energy use, operational costs, and other factors that can affect. Reference research assessment using ASHRAE-based standards 90.1 -2013 by following the 2030 energy challenge system. The results showed that brick pairs can result in much more significant energy expenditure and anticipational costs. It is necessary to review the material to reduce energy use and operational costs to obtain an ideal comparison of cooling and natural lighting loads in existing areas.
