Massing Analysis

The massing analysis is delivered in two stages.


  1. A design workshop to review a predetermined number of massing models in order to further optimise building performance through passive design techniques. The review will consider the following: building form factor, building orientation, site topography and ideal location, glazing ratios, position and aspect, site and building shading, and renewable energy generation potential


  2. The massing models are analysed in a building energy modelling programme such as PHPP or Design Builder to provide specific building performance feedback in order to inform decision-making
