    MAKING A RETURN ON INVESTMENT IN PASSIVE ARCHITECTURE TERRACED HOUSES DEVELOPMENT Wan Rahmah Mohd Zaki Universiti Teknologi Malaysia(UiTM) Malaysia E-mail: [email protected] Abdul Hadi Nawawi Universiti Teknologi MalaysiaQJiTM) Malaysia E-mail: [email protected] Sabarinah Sh Ahmad Universiti Teknologi MalaysiaQJiTM) Malaysia E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT The main feature of a conventional terraced housing development is rows of rectangular shaped houses with the narrow facade as the frontage. Consequently, this limits natural cross ventilation and daylight penetration into the middle of the houses; and cause for unnecessary energy consumption on mechanical cooling and artijicial lighting to make the living spaces comfortable for occupants. Such inconsideration is mainly attributed to the optimum configuration of houses which offers the most economic return desired by the developer. Passive Architecture (PA) design strategies can make terraced houses more conducive for occupants as well as gives reasonable returns to the developer. The idea is demonstrated on a hypothetical double storeys terraced scheme in a 2.5 acre site whereby it is transformed intofour types of PA terraced houses development. The Return on Invesfment of the PA terraced houses is ascertained for two situations, ie., (i) fwed sales price for all types of house; and (ii) added premium to PA terraced houses due to the positive unintended effects such as low density housing, etc. If critical criteria for demand and supply in housing remain constant, it is found that PA terraced housing development offers competitive returns to the developer relative to the returns for conventional terraced housing scheme. Keyworh: Orientation, Indoor Comfort and Operational Energy 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Housing and Energy The recent public awareness on sustainability calls for housing to not only serves as a basic shelter but also to be energy efficient, i.e., designed to make occupants need low operational energy.

  • Five Keys to Safer Food Manual
    FIVE KEYS TO SAFER FOOD MANUAL DEPARTMENT OF FOOD SAFETY, ZOONOSES AND FOODBORNE DISEASES FIVE KEYS TO SAFER FOOD MANUAL DEPARTMENT OF FOOD SAFETY, ZOONOSES AND FOODBORNE DISEASES INTRODUCTION Food safety is a significant public health issue nsafe food has been a human health problem since history was first recorded, and many food safety Uproblems encountered today are not new. Although governments all over the world are doing their best to improve the safety of the food supply, the occurrence of foodborne disease remains a significant health issue in both developed and developing countries. It has been estimated that each year 1.8 million people die as a result of diarrhoeal diseases and most of these cases can be attributed to contaminated food or water. Proper food preparation can prevent most foodborne diseases. More than 200 known diseases are transmitted through food.1 The World Health Organization (WHO) has long been aware of the need to educate food handlers about their responsibilities for food safety. In the early 1990s, WHO developed the Ten Golden Rules for Safe Food Preparation, which were widely translated and reproduced. However, it became obvious that something simpler and more generally applicable was needed. After nearly a year of consultation with food safety expertsandriskcommunicators, WHOintroducedtheFive KeystoSaferFoodposterin2001.TheFive Keys toSaferFoodposterincorporatesallthemessagesoftheTen Golden Rules for Safe Food Preparation under simpler headings that are more easily remembered and also provides more details on the reasoning behind the suggested measures. The Five Keys to Safer Food Poster The core messages of the Five Keys to Safer Food are: (1) keep clean; (2) separate raw and cooked; (3) cook thoroughly; (4) keep food at safe temperatures; and (5) use safe water and raw materials.

  • Iii. Housing Constraints
    III. HOUSING CONSTRAINTS The provision of adequate and affordable housing can be constrained by a number of factors. This section assesses the various governmental, market, infrastructure and environmental factors that may serve as a potential constraint to housing development and improvement in Cypress. A. GOVERNMENTAL CONSTRAINTS 1. Land Use Controls The Cypress General Plan and Zoning and Subdivision Ordinance provide for a range of residential land use designations/zones in the City: Low Density Residential (RS-15000; RS-6000) - Provides for development of low density detached single-family dwellings. Maximum density is 5 dwelling units per acre. Medium Density Residential (RS-5000; RM-15) - Provides for development of medium density duplexes, townhomes, condominiums, and apartments. Single- family homes may also be appropriate. Maximum density is 15 dwelling units per acre. High Density Residential (RM-20) - Provides opportunities for development of apartments, condominiums, townhouses, and other group dwellings in addition to single-family development. Maximum density is 20 dwelling units per acre. Mobile Home Park (MHP-20A) - Provides for the development of mobile home parks subject to certain zoning restrictions. Maximum density is 12 spaces per gross acre. Cypress’ residential development standards are summarized in Table III-1. The City’s standards are not excessive, are fairly comparable to other Orange County communities, and do not serve as a constraint to development. 2008-2014 HOUSING ELEMENT III-1 HOUSING CONSTRAINTS TECHNICAL

  • Booklet 2 Housing Code Checklist (March 2021)
    Representing Yourself in an Eviction Case Housing Code Checklist with Key Provisions of the State Sanitary Code In Massachusetts, the state Sanitary Code is the main law that gives tenants a right to decent housing. All rental housing must at least meet the state Sanitary Code. The Housing Code Checklist will help you protect your right to safe and decent housing. You can also use the state Sanitary Code to defend against an eviction because a tenant’s duty to pay rent is based on the landlord’s duty to keep the apartment in good condition. The Sanitary Code defines what is good condition. If you are facing an eviction for nonpayment of rent or a no-fault eviction, the checklist can help you prepare your case. A no-fault eviction is where a landlord is evicting a tenant who has done nothing wrong. If you can prove to a judge the landlord knew about the bad conditions before you stopped paying rent, the judge may not order you to move. A judge might order you to pay only some of the rent the landlord claims you owe. Or, the judge may order the landlord to pay you money because you lived with such bad conditions. The landlord may have to pay you even if the problems were fixed. The judge may also order the landlord to make repairs. The right column of the Housing Code Checklist refers to the law. In most cases, it is the Sanitary Code in the Code of Massachusetts Regulations (C.M.R.). See the Sanitary Code online: www.mass.gov/eohhs/docs/dph/regs/105cmr410.pdf.

  • Housing Market Pressures
    Missing Middle Housing Study Housing Market Pressures Bulletin 2 July 2020 BULLETIN 2 HOUSING MARKET PRESSURES Housing market pressures This bulletin provides an introduction to the Arlington housing market. This document examines the regional shortfall in housing supply and takes a look at Arlington's existing housing inventory, the housing that has been produced in the last decade, recent home sales data, teardown and substantial rehabilitation data, and demographics data related to Arlington's housing market. Introduction The Joint Center for Housing Studies at Harvard University’s assessment of the current state of housing for the nation provides a succinct description of the challenges we face in Arlington today. With the economy on sound footing and incomes ticking up, household growth has finally returned to a more normal pace. Housing production, however, has not. The shortfall in new homes is keeping the pressure on house prices and rents, eroding affordability—particularly for modest-income households in high-cost markets. While demographic trends should support a vibrant housing market over the coming decade, realizing this potential depends heavily on whether the market can provide a broader and more affordable range of housing options for tomorrow’s households.1 There are many factors that affect housing production including capital markets, federal monetary policy, federal regulations related to lending, the financial sector's underwriting standards, the availability of labor, and local land use regulations and processes. While there is little that Arlington can do to influence the macro-economic factors at play in the housing market, local government can make significant contributions by establishing land use regulations that support the types of housing that will meet the community's growing needs.
