Courtyard Commons Retail Addition. Phase I. Final Design Documentation
The project consists of a retail addition to an existing cluster of buildings located on the main commercial street in Santa Cruz, California. The existing complex is formed by two wings of one-story buildings enclosing an open courtyard now used for circulation, a coffee shop seating area, a flower stand, and access to four retail stores. The program calls for an addition of new retail space above the existing buildings constructed of eight inch concrete blocks. In order to provide for the year around use of the courtyard, the program also calls for a flexible glass cover which could be removed during the sunny warm summer days. The main requirements of the program finally, are to develop an energy efficient and cost effective design which uses natural light at its full potential for both the courtyard and interior spaces. This report includes sections of the following: overview of final design; unavailable solar design information; incremental passive design cost, energy performance analysis and results; economic analysis and results; architectural compatibility; NBSGLD output and documentation; and design development drawings.
