BSD is a pioneer in the adoption, promotion, and use of building performance simulations to assist in optimizing building designs.
These design tools should be used as early as possible during the design planning stages.
Natural ventilation modelling can assist in site massing, building orientation, detailed building design, internal layout, and space planning. Its benefits include removal of heat build-up from dense urban area, improving thermal comfort, and indoor air quality, and reducing the need for mechanical ventilation. BSD has conducted airflow modelling for more than 50 building projects.
BSD specialises in using accredited energy modelling software such as Visual DOE, IES, and STAR-CCM+ to model the energy consumption, and savings of large office, and retail mall developments as well as airports, laboratories, and conservation.
Projects seeking BCA Green Mark, Malaysia Green Building Index (GBI), and USBC LEED wards may be required to conduct energy modelling to demonstrate the energy saving achieved with the proposed building design.
Good daylighting harvesting enhances indoor environmental quality, and reduces the need for electrical lighting. Conducting daylighting simulations allows us to select glass, size façade opening, skylights, and plan internal spaces.
Shadow Analysis, Solar Irradiance, and Glare Simulations are useful designs against solar heat gain, optimize solar photovoltaic (PV) design, and prevent discomfort glare in our built environment.
