Part L2A 2006 (April)
What needs to be calculated, when and how?
There are two types of calculation required:
targeted CO2 emissions
avoidance of summer overheating in naturally ventilated spaces
These calculations need to be done when:
design specifications are submitted to building control
the building has been completed
How will the target CO2 emissions rate (TER) be generated?
CO2 emissions will be calculated for a notional building and systems.
This notional model will reflect Part L2 2002 standards and CIBSE TM32
TER is defined by reducing the notional emission by an improvement factor
and LZC benchmark.
For air conditioned or mechanically vented buildings the reduction is 28%.
For naturally vented buildings the reduction is 23.5%
Use either accredited simulation software or SBEM for this calculation
How will the avoidance of summer overheating be demonstrated?
Comfort criteria for avoidance of summer overheating are specified for
various types of naturally ventilated buildings. Usually expressed as
acceptable number of hours which threshold temperatures may be
exceeded. Offices not to exceed 28C for more than 20 hours per year for
example.
Accredited simulation software may be used for this calculation
or average heat gains should not exceed 35W/m2 over a design day.
SBEM or Admittance procedure not applicable.
What will the compliance checking software do?
This is the procedure by which the building design is checked against all the criteria
for compliance. A report is generated for submission to Building Control.
The CO2 emissions must meet the TER and minimum standards for
U values, air tightness, occupation schedules and system efficiencies checked.
High system efficiencies would be flagged for inspection by the BCO.
Use either accredited simulation software or SBEM for this check
Supporting documentation would be submitted on avoidance of summer overheating.
Also O&M manuals and log book etc for completed building.
The stages of model building and analysis
Create 3D geometry model and analysis zones.
Export 3D model for daylight simulation.
Add building construction details, occupation schedules, control set points and climate data to create a building model. This model is
copied to create a notional equivalent.
Simulate thermal performance of building hourly over a year to generate room loads and internal temperatures and humidity.
Add plant type and controls detail with air supply specification to create a systems model. This model has a notional equivalent
created to run with the notional building,
Simulate the systems performance hourly over a year to generate energy use, CO2 emissions and plant equipment sizing.
Use notional CO2 emissions to generate the target emissions for the design.
Process the results and model input data through the Part L2 compliance checking software to prepare a report for Building Control.
If there are naturally ventilated spaces generate temperature frequencies to demonstrate avoidance of summer overheating.
An example project evaluated for Part L2 compliance
This is design undertaken by Foreman Roberts Partnership.
It is a new Bio-Chemistry building at the University of Oxford.

Calculating energy use and CO2 emissions
A copy is made of the design building model to create the notional model
The notional building model is a copy of the design model retaining the
shape, zones and occupancy.
All U-values are replaced with elementally compliant values and glazing
ratios changed to be elementally compliant.
This process is automated.
The notional system,
that is used with the
notional building, is
specified in
CIBSE TM32.
It is a standard good
practice fan coil system
with gas boiler and air
cooled chiller.
The allocation of this
notional system is
automated.
