Phased redevelopment of former bus depot into high quality residential accommodation and 2,699 sqm of commercial floorspace. Other associated works include landscaping, car parking and cycle storage.
SRE completed a Microclimate Analysis for the proposed development to ascertain the impact on pedestrian comfort in respect to wind velocity. As part of this, a transient Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) wind study was performed analysing wind directions for different seasons throughout the year to provide a robust study against the Lawson Comfort Criteria (LCC).
Working closely with the client, SRE’s building physics specialists suggested amendments to proposed designs and solutions to mitigate any potential climate concerns.
