Elegant Sustainable School Design

The document describes the British School building project in New Delhi, which utilized various sustainable design strategies. These included preserving existing trees on site and planting additional native trees, implementing measures to reduce air and water pollution during construction, installing water-efficient fixtures to reduce consumption by 65%, optimizing energy use through daylighting and passive design to reduce energy consumption by 73%, and installing a 40kWp solar PV system to meet 30% of the building's energy needs. Sustainable materials like gypsum, kota stone and terrazzo were also used.

PASSIVE STRATEGY
The following strategies were adopted to reduce the building impact on the natural environment:
Sustainable Site Planning:
• 5 trees existed on site and all were preserved. In addition, the project planted 292 native trees to enhance microclimate
of the area.
• Air pollution control measures such as site barricading, coverage of dusty material, wheel washing and water sprinkling
were implemented during construction.
Water management:
• Reduction of more than 56.05% from the GRIHA base case has been demonstrated in landscape water demand by use
of sprinklers.
• Reduction of 65.3% from the GRIHA base case has been demonstrated in building water use by installing water
efficient flush and flow fixtures.
• Construction water requirement was minimized to large extent by adopting curing through gunny bags.
Energy Optimization:
• EPI reduction of 73% from GRIHA benchmark has been demonstrated.
• 62% of the habitable spaces are day lit and meet the daylight factors prescribed by the National Building Code of India.
• 12.54% is the window to wall ratio of the project.
Renewable Energy Technology installed on site:
• 40 kWp rated capacity solar PV panels have been installed on site.
• Rated capacity of solar PV meets more than 30% of internal lighting and HVAC load of the project.
• Solar water heaters have been installed to meet hot water requirement.
Sustainable Building Materials:
• 92% of ceiling materials used in the project which include Gypsum, Bison Board, and Perforated Gypsum Board are
low-energy materials.
• Kota stone and terrazzo flooring have been used for more than 70% of flooring in the school.
