L’objectiu principal del projecte és la realització d’un estudi per poder observar la importància que pot tenir la modificació de la façana i la coberta en un edifici públic per el seu consum energètic . El treball consistirà en agafar la residència pública del meu poble (Sant Joan de Vilatorrada) i introduir aquest edifici en el programa “Ecotect Analysis”. Un cop tenim l’edifici introduït al programa s'analitzarà el consum energètic que té l’edifici, contrastant-lo amb les factures que m’han proporcionat l’ajuntament. Finalment es modificarà la façana per baixar aquests consum. Les dades que s’han d’introduir al programa són dades meteorològiques del meu municipi, tots els sistemes constructius, (façanes, coberta, paviments, particions,etc) i altres dades. El que s’intentarà amb la façana es canviar les seves característiques, el color, els materials, entre altres canvis. Amb aquests canvis es pretenen fer baixar el consum tèrmic que produeix l’edifici, ja que , és un edifici on hi han gran consums energètics. Al finalitzar el treball es vol veure un canvi en la façana i una baixada de consum. Al mateix temps també haurem de veure una baixada econòmica sobre l’edifici. Gran part del treball té incidència amb temes mediambientals, ja que, la seva finalitat és la de poder reduir el consum energètic d’un edifici, cosa que ens donarà un estalvi econòmic i una disminució d’impacte ambiental. També s’intentarà utilitzar materials de baix consum energètic o altres aspectes relacionats amb el medi ambient.

The first idea that came to my mind to do the final project was to do a multi family building or a single family home. However, I recognized that nowadays this is not the best way in this profession and I started to think about other alternatives. Finally, I did the DAC of sustainability and I realize a different opportunity to make an interesting project. After I took the DAC, I was thinking about what to do until I thought about the nursing house of my village. It is a building in which I have worked, so I know it perfectly and I was aware of its huge energy consumption and its very high economic cost. For that reason, I started to think about how to improve the efficiency and how to drop the consumption. The idea was to see which effects the fronting and the roof of the building had over the building in relation to the energy consumption. That was the main idea of the project. Once I had started the project, I realized that I needed to know in a perfect way the building system, which materials were used, all the facilities and other aspects in order to do an exact comparison. Therefore, my project is based on the capture of the building in a program called Ecotect Analysis and modify it to reduce the consumption. With this project we can learn things as the different aspects of a building, how a public building is made, how the facilities work, the use of energy calculation programs such as Ecotect, which aspects of the fronting and roof affect in the building, the importance to connect the way to build a building and environmental aspects, etc. For all that, I think this project is an interesting method to end my degree in a successful way.
