Passive design, powerful results

The PNC Tower establishes two important milestones that will influence future commercial development across America – it is the only building in the country to have a fully automated double-skin facade, and one of the first high-rise structures to incorporate a solar chimney. The double-skin facade ensures 92% of the interior spaces are illuminated by daylight year round, and works in tandem with the solar chimney to enable the building to rely solely on natural ventilation for almost half the year. As well as creating an exceptional environment for occupants, these features dramatically reduce the tower’s operating costs, and by doing so champion the economic and social value of passive design to the commercial sector.

ACTIVE SUPPORT SYSTEMS

The PNC Tower is able to operate passively for much of the year, but during both the height of summer and the depths of winter, active systems are required to maintain a comfortable environment for occupants. We integrated active chilled beams within the floor space to provide additional cooling to interiors on hot summer days. During the winter months, a dual-wheel energy recovery system uses the warm exhaust air leaving the building to heat cold air as it enters, while radiant panels in the facade provide highly efficient heating and mitigate unwanted heat loss to the outside.

A BUILDING THAT BREATHES

Home to several renowned higher education institutions, Shimoga is an academic hotspot that has no trouble attracting undergraduate students. With the economic hubs of Bangalore and Delhi offering more exciting career prospects, however, the city has struggled to retain its graduate talent. Our client, Xchanging Plc, aimed to change this by creating a contemporary office complex that provides an inspiring and dynamic work environment.

Cool solutions With energy consumption a primary aim for our client, the BuroHappold team analysed the climate of Shimoga and then worked alongside the architect to devise integrated, low energy solutions that made use of the area’s natural resources. Our engineers used bespoke computational analysis and parametric modelling tools to assess large numbers of potential design options and develop strategies that would not only create excellent interior conditions, but also support modern interactive working practices.

Tangible results By replacing traditional mechanical air conditioning with passive ventilation strategies, we provided Shimoga Processing Centre with a cost effective and resilient system that proves low energy design can be achieved even in extreme climatic conditions.

Issues relating to roof lights when positioned flush to the office roof surface

Atrium roof

The atrium roof acts as a giant wind catcher, and the atrium itself as lungs for the two wings of the building. As with all other glazed elements, the atrium skylight is only exposed to diffused light to reduce solar gain without compromising daylight harvesting. By incorporating a further opening in the atrium skylight, we were able to cross ventilate all interior spaces.

Brise soleil As well as giving the centre a striking visual identity, these elements deflect direct sunlight to limit the unwanted effects of solar glare and heat gain. They also help channel the prevailing wind through the building.
