Co.Lab Zero Carbon – Carbon Negative Retrofit
Over the course of this module we have learnt the basic principles of zero carbon design and used IES Virtual Environment software, to simulate the retrofitting of a terraced Victorian house model. We successfully achieved a retrofit of -98kg C02

Co.Lab Zero Carbon – Session 3 (MacroFlo)
In the third session we used MacroFlo program to analyse infiltration and natural ventilation in a building and simulate air flow processes over different periods of time, by assigning data for “external glazing”, “internal glazing” and doors, regarding crackage, openable

Co.Lab Zero Carbon – Session 2 (Defining Constructions)
After getting to grips with the basic building tools and user interface of the Virtual Environment software in our first session, we began to explore wall construction types and the setting up of events in the model, such as room

Co.Lab Zero Carbon – Session 1
For our first session of Co.Lab Zero Carbon we were introduced to Virtual Environment (VE) software and learnt the basics of the user interface toolbar. Initially learning how to draw simple prism geometries, from which shapes can be extruded. On

Zero Carbon
The Zero Carbon Co.Lab aim was to modify and manipulate an existing Victorian house into a house that was zero carbon – or better a house with negative carbon figures. I picked this particular project as it fascinated me that buildings

Over the sessions on zero carbon design, i have successfully turned the Victorian house into a zero carbon building, with CO2 being -29KgCO2. This programme has taught me what can you change and what can’t you change when it comes

Keane Yuen | Zero Carbon Design
The formative review in December was very helpful in that it allowed us to explain the process and techniques we have learned about IES in detail. This gave us confidence in our skills for the next stage of the module.

Matthew Evans- What I have learned Zero carbon sessions 1-4
During this colab series in zero carbon design we have been taught the programme IESVE which is a modelling system that allows users to produce buildings which are more environmentally efficient in design as the system tests the building using
