What Microclimate Analysis Services Does Syntegra Consulting Offer?

Syntegra Consulting have detailed expertise in relation to microclimate concerns (wind/stack effect/sun/share) that impact building performance that fundamentally effect overall operational cost.

We use complex dynamic modelling software and tools, that are aligned to industry best practice for the principles of microclimate design.

Planning applications for large developments frequently are required to submit wind microclimate assessment. Our early stage involvement in a scheme when building massing designs are still live, can help to engineer out problem flow-dynamics and avoid expensive last minute delays in the planning process.

With our analysis and measurable design KPI criteria, we can develop passive design strategies to mitigate microclimate issues by amending façade design, orientation, landscape design.

Frequently Asked Questions

1 What is micro-climate analysis and what factors does it assess?

Micro-climate analysis evaluates localized atmospheric conditions around a building or development. It specifically assesses factors such as wind patterns, solar exposure (sun effects), and stack effects to understand their impact on the built environment.

2 How can micro-climate analysis benefit my building design or development project?

Micro-climate analysis helps optimize building design by identifying potential issues related to wind comfort, solar glare, and natural ventilation. This can lead to more efficient and comfortable spaces, potential cost reductions, and ensures projects meet planning compliance requirements.

3 When is micro-climate analysis typically required for a project?

Micro-climate analysis is often required during the early design and planning stages of new developments or significant refurbishments. It helps inform design decisions, mitigate potential environmental impacts, and demonstrate compliance with local planning regulations and environmental standards.

4 What specific outputs or deliverables can I expect from a micro-climate analysis?

A micro-climate analysis typically provides detailed reports, visualisations, and recommendations based on the assessment of wind, sun, and stack effects. These outputs help inform design adjustments to improve comfort, energy efficiency, and overall environmental performance of the development.
