Free tool to help you deliver climate-friendly designs!
Designing for optimum energy performance means taking account of current weather and predicted climate data as early as possible in the design process.
Known as the 'Design Compass' this simple-to-use online tool helps building design professionals make sure that they take account of weather and climate-change-related information at the optimum stage in the design process.
The system is based on both the building services design stages and the RIBA Plan of Work.
All the user needs to do is decide where they are in the process, then within a few clicks they have access to a wealth of useful information and guidance.
The really great thing about the system is not just its simplicity, but the fact that this online resource can be easily updated as new data or requirements are introduced. CIBSE is also encouraging user feedback. A really 'intelligent' design tool.
The Design Compass can be accessed through www.cibsedesigncompass.org.uk.
