Energy-intensive building

This is the combination of a unique program consisting of the reception and accommodation of heirless people, aiming for a return to autonomy, and a green building project. Nine studio type units , in an environment with road constraints, are organized around a strong community life. This project includes, in interior spaces, a reception desk, a multipurpose meeting room, a local care, and a laundry room, linen room, and outdoor spaces, an organic garden and henhouse self-production with dedicated equipment.

The ambition and the means for a green building have been made effective by achieving a passive building with hot water by solar energy, setting up a natural protective shield noise from the track and rainwater harvesting to use irrigation of cultivated areas.

Sustainable development approach of the project owner

The high-quality social housing project towards populations in large marginality called "Les Prytanes II" was born from a neighboring operation more successful small scale in a neighboring residential hamlet, Luynes, next to Aix en- Provence: in 2009, PACT Rhône Bouches-du-placed at disposal of the association Alternative Social Habitat, which aims to “defend the right to housing and the right to health, the dignity of the most vulnerable”, a restored villa became “Prytanes” operation.
In the Athenian democracy Prytanes, from the five hundred elected the ball (the Council), have a central political role, but their power is limited. They assume the institutions of organizational and operational missions. The Prytanes reside day and night, accommodated, housed and fed by the city, in an adjoining building ... They are thus able to enter the session at any time.
From the success of this operation for users is born the operation “Prytanes II” consisting in the idea of allowing these people to recover in a place where they decide for themselves, what they want to do, a shared place with high tolerance and where the collective and the individual make participation an insertion tool into the city.
The partnership PACT 13 / HAS - Habitat Alternative Social / Team Work of Master with architect Anne VADON the heating engineer BIO CONCEPT Frédéric MICHEL was developed in this context of equitable and sustainable development. The program was organized from existing homes in 9 housing units, community living spaces of reintegration assistance: reception hall, multi-purpose social living room space nursing, laundry - common laundry - sanitary, technical room receiving all common equipment and energy metering. It has also been sought in this project, a saving in energy implemented and autonomy in terms of public facilities. Thus was born a place upgraded compared to its constraints, and low energy consumption, thus also bioclimatic as possible, yet easy to use every day: A program of providing a passive building has established itself with a seal to perfect air, the quality control of indoor air and an energy metering for dwellings. The operation is thus part of the process BDM - Mediterranean Sustainable Buildings and requires ongoing support that can be envisaged that is perpetuated in other places and in other forms, no doubt…

Architectural description

The treatment by the project management team, building structure, its wrapping and outdoor facilities was a reflection of the passive construction and bioclimatic approach stems from the will of the Client and the operator, in a summer goal of comfort as winter to the attention of a reinsertionable population in an ordinary life.

After identifying the site resources, and constraints, (website suburban near a road with heavy traffic and a railway track, but still natural area - forest land and agricultural- to upgrade, zone low seismicity, land subject to the risk of shrinkage and swelling clays).

Building realization of the concepts are born of simple ideas:
- Use direct solar heat to produce hot water and, conversely, occultations systems berries and solar shields summer maneuver by curtains manual
- Using the natural inertia of certain materials (paving)
- natural cross ventilation enabling the operation of passive character
- structure is wood and insulation in natural wood wool surface coatings to local sands and lime applied manually
- cover in traditional curved tiles with Genoese protection against rain
- Circulations horizontal slats of wood galvanized steel substrates without coating or additional maintenance.

However, implementations were highly technical:
- High isolation of the envelope and pushed treatment of thermal bridges,
- efficient solar panels - Machineries and counting calories in a dedicated technical room
- external joinery in aluminium profiles and wood reinforced insulation triple glazing
- colourful coated Canvas high weather resistance,
- autonomous Sanitation with compact filter massive zeolite ...

Like these processes, the outdoor areas are doomed to remain in its natural state:
- traffic vehicles and pedestrians on stabilized earth
- very slight fence dotted with vegetation forming natural screen against the nuisances of the road,
- vegetable garden to residents as part of integration activities and passive protection against fires the nearby forest.

In addition to the strong environmental provisions, a “green site Charter” was established, requiring compliance with a number of site organization criteria by the intervening companies.

    The auroTHERM classic sensors can be ind installed on, or be integrated with all types of roofing slate, tile or metal roof, terrace or building facade. The various pre-assemblestallation accessories are a quick and easy implementation in 4 movements only. This sensor is dedicated to operations with more modules auroFLOW When the sensor fields consist of two or three sensors, fields can be connected on the same side. A battery, or sensor field has a maximum of 6 sensors connected to both sides, also called diagonally. The lengths to / sensor fields must be identical on the principle of the loop Tickelmann, and have the same number of bends. For the installation of a number of sensors greater than 6, the hydraulic connection should be divided into parallel branches, each branch must have the same number of sensors.

    This mixed timber-concrete system is formed of a concrete slab with a minimum thickness of 6cm, rigidly connected to a wooden joist. Wooden beams and show traction while the concrete slab is stressed in compression. Compared to a simple wooden joists, the deformation of the floor is smaller and considerably increased bearing capacity. It is thus possible to cross large spans (up to 8.50 m!) Safely and economically. Key element, the connector provides the connection between wood and concrete. He is the guarantor of the benefits you offer the system, namely low distortion and low stress in the wood and concrete.

    The benefits of sunscreen: Check the solar heat and natural light has a considerable effect on the energy needs of a building. In order to make sure that sun protection can control effectively to the reduction of energy consumption, the choice of the best solution has to be done very early in the project. The outdoor sun protection: thermal comfort. It effectively fights against overheating by preventing heat radiation from reaching the window and therefore inside the room. It also protects against glare and promotes the visual comfort of the user. Placed outside the screens soltis 92-2045 halt 95% of thermal radiation. A real benefit in terms of user comfort and energy savings.

Comfort

    The occupation of the day building generates internal substantial gains that accumulate the hours we typically as part of an ERP or tertiary use, which means face to buildings that can harshly dispense with cooling. To prevent “air conditioning”, We worked on the flow rate of 20 natural ventilations and considered less conventional refresh solutions (and ceiling fan fogger enslaved probe temperature sensor). Furthermore, it has been defined with the project owner behavioural rules to reduce the energy dissipated during the day in the building: observe the occultation level fixed, avoid indoor activities and the kitchen during warm periods do not leave doors or windows open during the day, limit the ventilation flow as needed induced occupation (variable flow / CO2 sensor).

Reasons for participating in the competition(s)

​The location of the project in the heart of the town of Aix en Provence, between the towns of Luynes and Gardanne, allows us to affirm that we are in the "temperate climate" category. Although the Mediterranean climate characterizes us a little more.
During the project design phase and during its implementation, the energy conservation and economy have been our leitmotiv. Indeed, there is no independent heating system, because the Prytanes 2 building is a passive building. Moreover, there is no need for air conditioning as a natural ventilation through-process (performed overnight) allows to refresh the housing units. Then we set up a solar control system pushed, wich allows, through horizontal, vertical blinds and independant fabrics to regulate sunshine living rooms. Importantly, domestic hot water, which is mostly produced by solar. And finally, all light bulbs are low consumption and LEDs, and appliances quantity is reduced to the bare needs of users.
