First you need to set up the POSITION of the building in the right way.
Therefore Manage> Location and insert the necessary data including the address and the closer Weather Station. This is the nearest station that provided the data needed for the climate analysis.
As second step is necessary to define the TRUE NORTH, the building orientation (in this case at 22 ° to the North Project). The Project North instead regards the orientation of the views.
First I use a Structural Plan (i.e. Level 10) and in the Properties Panel, at Orientation, I select True North.
Then, from the Manage tab, in the Position section, I select Rotate True North.
The SUN SETTINGS . From a 3D view, I activate Shadows and I select Sun Settings from the bottom bar.
I decided to do a Single Day analysis because I want to understand in which times of year the sun could give more discomfort on the south facade. It gives the trend of the sun during the day by dividing it into several frames. That is why I imposed an “average” day (different from the Summer solstice) using an interval of 30 minutes between one frame and another.
To proceed with the analysis I modelled on the south side two walls, one nearly flush with the facade, the other one backward. To simulate the two positioning solutions of the boxes.
It’s obvious that for the box flush front the only solution to protect it from the sun is to use a system of brise-soleil. In fact I use a Curtain Wall created earlier (for reference on the modeling of the elements you can watch here).
By clicking on Preview SOLAR STUDY you can "navigate" within the analysis frame by frame, checking the Solar Path. Taking several analysis I noticed that most of the worst conditions are in August, as the retreat is not enough to shade the facade in the hottest hours. Even this box is still too exposed to sunlight.
This video has been exported from the model. You can see how the Sun Path can affect the relative solar gains to the walls. One flaw of the video is that the part that interests me is seen too far and little, not understandable. I have not found a way to zoom the video export in the interest part of my study. I also tried to use the Section Box, but everything is cut doesn't generate the shadow on the model, this implies that doing Analysis using Section Box is not reliable.
The analysis, helps me to notice that the radiation of the sun has a maximum limit on a low part of the wall. This means that it is not strictly necessary to use a system of shading. In fact, I decide to use only "classic" windows that is, with a spandrel wall of at least 100/110 cm. By placing a window in the model I know if can suffice than imagined. In fact I'm lucky and the opaque part of the wall is sufficient.

You immediately notice a regularity of the measures in the plan,I tried to find fundamental dimensions that could take me back to a module to apply. On the long side it is often repeated measurement of 273 cm that also divides the space between the supporting partitions. On the short side a module is more difficult to define, except for 520 cm of the supporting partitions. In addition to this, the central part and the ends of the storey are almost in proportion to each other.
The idea is to use a basic module 273 on the long side. For the short side I have instead decided to use 520 as a standard by extending this measure to the outside or towards the center.
The design theme is residential. I imagine spaces for student accommodation (with common spaces for kitchens and study areas) and other ones dedicated to larger apartments.The student accommodation will consist of a single module for the bathroom and the room itself with double closet and desk.The apartments are composed of several modules assembled together to define different cuts of accommodation for singles, couples and families.
It is a very open floor plan, there is the possibility of creating different layouts of the plan. By that the idea of composing multiple floors in a much more dynamic way.
Now I understand much better the space necessary for the passage between the apartments and the need for space for students. Finally I can define the exact module of measures 270 (273) x600 cm.
Looking back on the building’s condition of things, the empty structurea of the towers could literally be "filled" by these modules. The ideal would be a wooden structure, a prefabricated box that can be easily placed and connected to the existing structure and quickly replaced or changed over time, with the need to renovate the areas.

Buongiorno,
Qui sono le mie tavole della consegna finale. Il mio lavoro è fatto nel piano 6 dello pallazo B.

Buonasera!
Vi mando i file aggiornati degli elaborati di progetto che presenterò venerdì all'esame.
In più allego i file delle famiglie che ho costruito.
Una precisazione va fatta sulla famiglia "EA_pannelloPerfored", in cui ho modellato i fori come "voids", dotandoli di parametri che consentissero la gestione delle dimensioni e delle quantità dei fori, anche in relazione alle dimensioni del pannello (a loro volta dipendenti dalle dimensioni della grid del curtain wall nell'ambiente di progetto). Purtroppo però questa famiglia si è rivelata completamente "inutilizzabile" poichè appena inserita come pannello del curtain wall causava il blocco o addirittura il crash del programma. Ho dovuto quindi, nell'ambiente di progetto, sostituirlo con un pannello solido, in cui i fori sono impostati solo attrverso un materiale creato da me. Vi mando comunque la famiglia per esaminarla a parte.
A Venerdì!
