INTEGRATED DESIGN…..
Energy saving
Efforts / Costs
potential
7
In order to design a high energy-performance thermally
comfortable building, all the factors must be considered; and
all the stakeholders must be on-board.
is a tool to implement an
integrated design process,
wherein all stakeholders
work together in an intense
manner over a limited time-
period.

BEEP Charrette methodology
Conducting a
charrette
10
Stages of Integrated Design Process
Charette preparation
• Create a few conceptual architectural designs & collect other relevant information
• Carry out climate and other preliminary analysis to understand what strategies may work
11
Stages of Integrated Design Process
Conducting a charrette
DAY 1:
• Set the energy / comfort goal
DAY 2:
• Identify energy efficiency strategies
DAY 3:
• Test out the effectiveness of the strategies
o Energy savings and comfort (through simulation tools)
o Capital and operational cost (cost database tool)
DAY 4:
• Decide on final strategies / design
• Decide on next steps & assign responsibilities to track progress
12
Stages of Integrated Design Process
Charrette Follow-up
Make sure the lines of communication are open between all charrette participants
Prepare a final assessment after the completion of the project and after occupation.

Energy and comfort outputs analysed
For commercial buildings For residential buildings
o Estimated Energy Performance Index o Internal operative temperature
(EPI) of the building
o Degree Discomfort Hours
o Breakdown of energy end-use
