Integrated Design Process for High-Performance Buildings; a Case Study from Dubai

Abstract: Due to the scarcity of water and the harsh desert climate of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), water and energy are two of the main challenges for the design of sustainable buildings in the UAE. Relevant literature calls for the consideration of building systems and materials at the design stage to achieve high-performing buildings and to save on the operational costs of the building. The aim of this research was to design a high-performance building that meets the environmental sustainability requirements for w… Show more

“…An IDP is a design method that collaborates all relating disciplines to consider the whole life cycle at the design phase, including design, construction, operation and occupancy, depending on the joint engineers' backgrounds. It has already been proved that the implementation of an IDP can enhance building performance during operation, especially as regards water and energy consumption (Alajmi, 2021;Shibeika et al, 2021). A coherent interdisciplinary team formed at the initial project stage and a specified management system are necessary for an effective IDP system (Bocheńska-Skałecka and Walter, 2020).…”
