1. Architecture Design Narrative
(35.1) ARCHITECTURAL CONCEPTS
The concept CEM searched for answers to the everyday life of the twenty-rst century wi-thin the potential of the sun, as source of light and heat, and within the management and mutation of
the spaces in the house.
There is a prototype to be built in Portugal which will reect the entire concept. The house merges with the surrounding environment and with light variations throughout the
day. Every moment there is a new interior and exterior space, which adapts to ones daily life. The
perspective one has changes as the day goes by.
The movements of the house throughout the day allow for the mutation of spaces.
According to the time of day and the needs of the family, the house adapts itself to the
familys routine, managing the areas according to what is required at breakfast and all day long until
dinner time.
With the help of domotics and hi-technology systems, the house adapts to its owner and not the
other way round.
Also, the modular structure has been designed to adapt to its residents needs, evolving ac-
cording to the family living there. It can grow and become smaller depending on the lifestyle and
the demands of the family at different stages in their lives.
The house feeds itself from the sun, following it as it rises and sets, just like a sunower. Thissunower effect, combined with the movements of the solar panels maximizes solar gains. Because the house reacts to sunlight, and the solar panels can have two different move-
ments, it can adapt to summer and winter needs.
The natural texture of the solar panels, used as a covering, has been designed to createdifferent scenarios as the sunlight shines upon them.
The model in the competition represents only part of the whole concept. Some of the SDE
exhibition constraints have lead us to explore different possibilities. Showing the projects versatility
is our main challenge.
I mean, you can purchase the mechanical system after you have acquired this basic structure and
to do so in parts, according to your nancial possibilities, without the need to get a high loan.There is, therefore, the possibility for the house to evolve throughout its owners life and adapt to the
growth of the family. Moreover, it can become more ecological and productive every time you acquirea new system. It is difcult to highlight only one aspect in the project, because the project is innovative, due
to the gathering of concepts.The model we are developing for SDE, the prototype CEM/SDE, shows that: 1-the house is
sustainable; 2-the house maximizes solar gains; 3-the positions of the house needed for the sustai-
nability create new spaces; 4-the concept is evolutionary; 5-the house is modular; and 6-the interior
spaces are easily transformed.
1 - The way the concept of sustainability was developed is one of the key elements of the
Project CEM. What makes this project innovative is the fact that the elements that allow the sustai-
nability are part of the house, just like a skin. They are not just extras or complements that allow for
its sustainability.

2 - The different positions of the covering allow for maximum solar gains. In this specicmodel, the covering can have two different positions. One in the Summer, which casts some shade
upon the window and protects it from the sunlight. This position provides a shelter. It also creates a
covered living space.In Winter, the other position allows the sun to shine on the entire window.
3 - Another key element is the simplicity of the positions needed for the sustainability. They
can be regarded as generators of new spaces.
4 - As mentioned, the house grows with the family and with their lives.
5 - The modular structure can be adapted to the family during their lifetime and to the everyday
needs of the family.
6 - The interior space also possesses a wall, which can be moved, according to the familys
needs, in order to create two bedrooms and change the size of the living room.
To conclude, the different positions of the solar panels make the house more comforta-
ble, more efficient and a lot more sustainable.

(35.3) LIGHTING DESIGN NARRATIVE
Several models taken in study evoke innumerous ideas about both natural and articial lightdesign.
Relatively to natural light, the model proposes a set of vertical and rotative grid that allowscontrolling the penetration of light, directly or indirectly inside the habitation. This system can also
be racked up in order to clear all the window range and let, consequently, the involving atmosphere
enter in the dwelling.
The moving cover of the house has been explored to have small openings between photo-
voltaic panels, permitting the entrance of little dots of light that spread through the shadow in the
habitations interior, designing therefore a shredded shadow.
In team we discussed about articial light, if it should be assumed in the interior design, or ifwe should hide the source of light, always realizing that both solutions bring different space experien-
ces. We believe that hiding the source of light turns the space more natural, although we think that
the presence of lamps and spotlights will be a sensitization factor towards energy saving, becomingvery important in the house design.
The teams expectation about this theme is that we implement a personal electronic device,
like a cell phone, that controls the lighting in the house.

INTRODUCTION
The following text describes a structural solution for a building that in itself is ecologically
sustainable.In this text, not only the structural solution found is described, but also the main reasons that led to
this projects solution. The list of criteria that presided the elaboration of this project tries to guaran-
tee safety, durability, functionality, as well as being reasonably within budgets as the sustainability
of this solution.
(36.1) STRUCTURAL DESIGN
During the development of the structural solution to be used in this project it was taken into ac-
count the concept of a sustainable building, dened in the Architecture project, as well as the workingand surrounding variables, although always having in mind possible new solutions in the building.
The project mainly consists in the construction of an auto supporting structure that
is to be lodged in another metallic structure, which is going to work as support to the rst andwill allow the placing on any given local, plus allowing the building to rotate on a vertical axis,
as well as a partial rotating movement of the external metallic cover. Therefore the solution
found to the problem with the interior of the building, such as empty spaces, doors and windo-
ws recurs to the usage of light material, such as wood in the pavement, beams and walls.
Top walls composed by a mounting system and locking beams, as well as the cover, with a sys-
tem that connects main beams by plywood, they are the main bracing structural elements of the building.
Also worth mentioning is that this is a practical and light solution that re-
curs to ecological material and by its attributes will be fast and easy to mount/
dismount the various elements because all connections will use screws.
As for the wooden structures, we considered the usage of certied wooden lamella-te with a resistance level of GL28 or above. In the concrete composed parts it was con-
sidered the usage of class C25/30 concrete, as for an environmental exposure XC3 and
XA1, dened by NP EN 206-1 standards, and class A400 NR ribbed steel. As for the ba-sis to be used in the making of the metallic elements, class S275 steel would be our option.
METHODS OF ANALYSIS AND DIMENSIONING
In the making of our project we will comply with every Portuguese laws and regula-tions, namely, regulations NP EN 206-1: 2005 - Beto Parte 1: Especicao, desempe-nho, produo e conformidade and NP ENV 13670-1: 2005 - Execuo de estruturas em be-to Parte 1: Regras gerais, as well as Normas e Especicaes do Laboratrio Nacional deEngenharia Civil applicable. In the special case of verifying the safety of the structure itll betaken into account Regulamento de Segurana e Aces para Estruturas de Edifcios e Pon -tes (RSA), Regulamento de Estruturas de Beto Armado e Pr-esforado (REBAP) and Re-gulamento de Estruturas de Ao para Edifcios (REAE). All previously quoted regulationswill be complemented, in justied cases, by the adoption of dimensioning rules that are moreup to date (EUROCODE 2 - Design of Concrete Structures, EUROCODE 3 - Design of Steel
Structures, EUROCODE 5 - Design of Timber Structures e EUROCODE 8 - Design of structu-res for earthquake resistance - Part 1: General rules, seismic actions and rules for buildings). Besides the pre-dimensioning of the various structural elements by fast and reliable me-thods, a tridimensional calculation model of nite models and bars was made with the purpose ofverifying the global stability of the building.

THERMAL CARACTERISTICS
This study intends to perform verication of Regulamento das Caractersticas de Comporta-mento Trmico dos Edifcios - RCCTE, Decreto-Lei N. 80/2006 of April 4th and includes a descrip-tion of the thermal characteristics of the surrounding elements, quantication of the different thermalparameters, determining the nominal heating needs (Nic) and cooling (Nvc), quantication of needsrated to produce hot water(Nac), and the calculation of nominal global needs of primary energy (Ntc).
This project aims to ensure that the requirements of thermal comfort, whether for heating,
cooling, ventilation (for ensuring air quality inside the building) as well as the needs of hot water, may
be met without spending excessive energy.
It also aims to minimize the pathological conditions in the building components caused bythe occurrence of internal or supercial condensation, with potential negative impact on durability ofbuilding components and indoor air quality.

ACOUSTIC PERFORMANCE OF THE ADAPTED SOLUTIONS
2_Regulations:
As a reference for this study was taken into account only the Portuguese law and thereforethe provisions of the document shown below: -Decreto-Lei n 96/2008 regulation establishing the acoustic requirements of the Buildings; -Decreto-Lei n 9/2007 establishing the general regulations of noise;
3_Construtive solution:
The analyzed elements are consistent with the architectural design , so it is simply shown thedescription of constitution the elements. The drawings will be part of the architectural design. It was considered that housing will be stimulated mainly by the noise from the adjoining ou-tdoor space, caused by trafc of adjacent streets. The noise inuence is felt at the intelligibility levelof speech, noise and reverberation, essential aspects to dene the acoustic comfort criteria and,consequently, in the users sense of fatigue.
The terms of speech intelligibility and hearing comfort and quality are conditioned by severalfactors, of which it is possible to highlight how much the control of reverberation time is determinant. In the surroundings the following design principles were taken into consideration:
3.1_Exterior walls
40mm burnt cork from the outside, rubber canvas,18mm OSB, 100mm rock wool, anti steamplastic, 10mm waterproof agglomerate, 30mm Wallmate and 10mm viroc, from the inside.

- In this study, the house was included in the description of residential and mixed buildings,
and hotel units, contained in Article 5 of Decreto-Lei No. 96/2008 (Regulation Acoustic Requirements
of Buildings);
- The house was considered located in a sensitive area, covered by subparagraphs c), d) ande) of paragraph 1 of article 11 of the General Regulation of Noise;
However, in order to comply with some parameters of the SDE, it was necessary to analyze
the reverberation time inside the house that corresponds to the arithmetic mean of the values obtai-
ned for the octave bands centered at frequencies of 500Hz, 1000Hz and 2000Hz .
Taking into account that in the SDE, this house will be for the period of exposure, an area fre-
quented by the public, the analysis of the reverberation time was performed as a place for services.
In the attached calculation memory, it is shown the sound absorption coefcients for eachbuilding element according to their area.
4.2 Criteria
In order to obey the law the following criteria were considered:

Sound insulation to air sound
It is called airborne noise the sounds transmitted thru the air. For the case of buildings, the
original sound source of excitation, can be the noise from road trafc, rail, air, operation of collectiveand / or individual facilities, the conversation itself, daily activities, etc.
The origin of these sound sources can be both inside and outside the building. Therefore,
the regulation sets limits for sound insulation, according to the location of each element of division,
differentiating the exterior of the building from the different elements of internal division.
There are several methods for the characterization of the air sound insulation. They are divi-ded into measurement in situ methods and estimation methods.
To calculate the air conduction sound insulation, of a certain element of division, it is used the Law
of Mass.
The law of mass is an estimation method that requires the reduction of acoustic intensity
over a given element, it is a function of the square of the product of unit mass m by the frequency
considered f. The result of this equation is expressed in decibels (dB).
a ~10 x log( f . m)2
The calculation of sound reduction index of the air conduction sounds in simple walls, is ob-
tained by the sum of all the supercial masses of the elements that make up the element of division.
To calculate the sound reduction index of the air conduction sounds in double walls, it is ne-
cessary to apply corrections to the insulation value obtained with the Law of Mass.
For a double wall to be treated as it, it must comply with certain conditions:
-The resonant frequency of a double wall panels must be less than 63 Hz.
A double wall (wall of panels separated by an air-box) accounts for the low frequencies, as a
mass-spring-mass, where the masses correspond to the two panels of the wall and the spring-box
to the air that separates between panels.
Such a system is able to vibrate and has a self resonant frequency dened by:
5 CONTEST SUPPORT DOCUMENTS
8/12/2019 FAUP_PM_7
23/18223CEM+NEM- _ Project Manual
Being:
c: propagation speed of sound in air (340 m/s);
mi: surfasse mass of elemet i; : density of air (1.18 kg/m); d: thickness of the air layer (m).
This frequency is somewhat lower, for larger masses and / or the greater the distance betwe-
en them.
-The thickness of the wall air-box must be less than the value obtained by the following ex-
pression:
d > 0.9(1/m1 + 1/m2)
-The air-box should be lled with semi-absorbing element with a minimum of 4 inches thick.
Fullling these three conditions, the index obtained from the graph will be increased from 3to 5 dB, depending on the case. Otherwise, the wall follows the concept of Law of the experimental
mass and frequency, without any gain due to the presence of air-box with insulation.
To calculate the air conduction sound reduction index in glazing walls and or with doors,
should be taken into account: The sound insulation provided by the glazing is determined by the following equation:
Rv =13.3 x log10(e)+14.5
Being:
Rv: the glazing aerial sound insulation (dB);
e: thickness of the glass if it is simple or the average thickness for glass double (air box below
15 mm).
The global value of the air conduction sound reduction index, will be obtained from the respective
value of the opaque part, glazed part and door part, using the following formula:
RT =10 log ( Si / (Si / 10^(Ri/10) ))
Being:
Si: surface area i;
Ri: sound insulation of i;
RT: total isolation resulting.
To calculate the air conduction sound reduction index in slabs, the same method of plain
walls is used.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
On this project, tow of the main concepts and concerns always were the optimized solar en-
ergy collection for conversion into electrical and thermal energy, acquiring a positive energy balance;
and the panels building integration, coupling Architecture and Engineering as one.
As this project has a simple external shape it was easy to dene the best integration of the
photovoltaic panels having in account the all year solar behaviour. The roof was the place chosen
to install the panels for several reasons, such as, the solar irradiance incidence is higher in the roof
than in other part of the house, so energy production will be more efcient with rooftop integration;
in the original project with the combined movements of the house the solar panels have a second
task, they create a solar protection, shadowing the interior it is possible to control light and heat thatexceeds comfortable values; as an architectural model the solar panels are seen as a skin that ceils
the house protecting it from the external environment.
DESIGN AND SPECIFICATIONS
After several tests and ideas for the optimum solution, a conclusion was made that the opti-
mum in Solar Decathlon scope it is to full the all rooftop with photovoltaic panels.
There are no batteries in this project; it would be unfeasible for Solar Decathlon contest.
However the team is considering it for further isolated systems.

The protective conductors will be connecting the metallic mass of the PV modules
and inverter and, after that, will connect to the house grounding that is located in the general
connection box. The house grounding is independent from the grid grounding in order to be
compatible with TT systems as seen below,
Maintenance Plan
Photovoltaic Modules
The photovoltaic modules are very reliable and require little maintenance. The main-
tenance consists in a periodic cleaning of the modules. The periodicity of the cleaning de-
pends on the accumulation of dirt on the modules, for example, a zone with high density ofbirds requires a superior periodicity of cleaning because of the faeces of birds accumulated
on the modules.

(36.6) ELECTRICAL BALANCE SIMULATION
INTRODUCTION
For estimate the photovoltaic production it was needed to know details about the system lo-
cation, the nal purpose of the system and the equipments used such as inverters and PV modules
available.
The local were the photovoltaic system will be installed will determine its production, inde-
pendently of its constitution. Different locals have different climate data that will inuence directly the
production of energy for the same system. In this case the system location will be Madrid and the
weather data les used in the simulation were from Photovoltaic Geographical Information System
(PVGIS - http://re.jrc.ec.europa.eu/pvgis/apps4/pvest.php), a system developed by the Institute of
Energy and Transport from the European Commission. The data was from the year of 2011, the mostactual data at the moment.
After collect the local information we made several studies about the best way to use the sys-
tem. First of all we analysed the users needs and the best way to get external energy, so it was pos-
sible to determine the kind of electrical grid and the use of it. After concluding that being connected
to the grid and receive energy from it when needed is the best solution it was time to determine the
system layout.
The choice of the equipments was made carefully. Trying to get the best technical-economic
relation that reached the wanted purpose for this project, the equipments chosen were the Martifer
Solar MTS 220P modules, a Portuguese brand, and the SMA Sunny Mini Central 9000TLRP-10
inverter.
To maximize production of green energy, it was decided to cover the entire roof with PV
modules. After determine the number of PV modules and using the PVsyst 5.56 simulation software,
it was runned the nal production simulation for a whole year divided per months and for the competi-
tion week, since 14thto 30thSeptember.
