Assignment 2: Rolling with the Ecotect

I moved forward with Ecotect analysis by creating a simple sectional scheme that relied on a bounce wall. With the exterior facade oriented towards the south and the roof ripped off and replaced by a transparent hoop house I set out to 3 dimensionally map the quantitative qualities of light available to the interior.

Above is the basic section of the building with plans below.




Here are a few renderings via Ecotect to help clarify the basic scheme:



The vast majority of my time was spent rendering very dense 3 dimensional images and converting them into a usable format; in this case animation.

The animation below shows average daily sunlight hours and ave. daily sun intensity in ft.Cand.



This animation shows ave. daily PAR and ave total radiation.
