Synopsis

In the latest Singapore Green Building Masterplan (SGBMP), the government has set an ambitious target of greening 80% of Singapore’s buildings by 2030, reflecting Singapore’s strong commitment to pushing the sustainability agenda in our built environment industry.

To achieve these targets, optimizing the building facade or envelope plays a key role – especially as it accounts for almost 50% of the thermal loads in buildings in tropical regions according to the Solar Energy Research Institute of Singapore (SERIS). As such, it is important that we design for high-performance façade systems, which can significantly enhance building energy efficiency and improve carbon footprint of buildings.

In this learning journey, we will be discussing about:

  • Building envelope heat gain in the tropics and how this contributes to building energy inefficiency
  • Thermal performance of a fenestration system
  • Proven façade technologies used in the design of a high-performance fenestration system
  • Design and construction of durable high-performance façade

Two-way chartered bus provided from Maxwell MRT to the venue at 32 Pioneer Crescent West Park, Bizcentral. Bus leaves at 1.15pm, please arrive 10 minutes early to catch the bus. Please let us know if you will be taking the bus by emailing to circulars@sia.org.sg.
