Building Envelope
The building employs cavity wall construction for enhanced thermal insulation. The building also incorporates underdeck roof insulation for better thermal performance.

Daylight
The building is designed to maximize natural daylight, reducing the need for artificial lighting and enhancing occupant well-being. A solar tube system has been integrated on its roof to harness natural daylight. Further, double-glazed windows have been installed to reduce heat gain from facades.

Materials
Fly ash brick has been used as a primary construction material. The roof has been coated with high SRI (Solar Reflective Index) paints, which offers protection against heat, water, and dust.

Rainwater Harvesting
The facility harvests 6,100 KL of rainwater annually. It has a storage capacity of 500 KL for rainwater, which undergoes treatment and testing to produce drinking water. When the water tank reaches its capacity, the overflow is directed to ground recharge pits.

This allows for precise control of the system’s operation, adjusting the motor’s speed and power consumption as needed to maintain optimal conditions while conserving energy. The building has also incorporated heat recovery wheels (HRW).

Energy-Efficient Lighting
All lighting fixtures installed in the building are LED.

Energy System
The building has installed energy meters for each operation, enabling the monitoring of energy wastage loops.

Water Management
