Your Recommendation for the “Best” Design Option
Enter a brief paragraph (5 to 7 sentences) outlining a brief explanation of why you chose this design option as the “best” after comparing your analyses of the proposals…
Based on the results from the analysis, 3 results have similar sun hours during the solstice, which means that have similar exposure to solar exposure during the longest and shortest day of the year. Given the project location is in Phoenix, AZ, this building will receive a promising amount of solar energy, which can be taken advantage of with the implementation of solar pv units. Out of the 3 design alternatives, option 3 has slightly better sun hours over the 2 other designs. For daylight potentials, option 3 also provides better daylight potential indexes, which I think will be crucial towards the well-being of the workers at Twitbook as having more daylight potential will increase the productivity of the workers. Therefore, option 3 would be the best out of the 3 considering the benefits to energy efficiency and employee wellness.
