Abstract
Hostels project is one of the important ,& vital project in education community due to the increasment of the high demand of higher education ,which encourages young student to go abroad&follow their passion of reaching the highest level of education .
As a result of that , hostels design should meet the student comfort fromeducational aspects, environmental aspects , social aspects , & even entertainment aspects to have the best performance .
As a building engineering students , the major objective of any project is to have an integrated design from architectural , structural ,environmental , &electromechanical view . In this hostel project ,designing a smart building with the best economical technologies will be one of our goals . Moreover, environmental teqnieqes well be used to reduce the total energy consumption, which well reduces the costs of electricity , water supply .. & other traditional costs .
To achieve these objects, the methodology that will be used in this design processis divided into two stages along with the two semesters . the first stage will begin with a case study research &analysis . It will include architectural, structural ,& environmental analysis with compare to the standards . Then a fully architectural & green design of the hostel well be done at the end of this semester .At The second stage , an structural , environmental , electromechanical design will be the major topics , using programs such that DIAlUX evo for illumination design needs , Design builder for thermal comfort , SAP for structural analysis , & others .
Although ,this project has been done before worldwide , the projects that exists in our country doesn’t meet the common architectural , & environmental standard .SO , our hope is to reach the optimum design according to the standards .
