Description
Summary:碩士 === 中華大學 === 營建管理學系碩士班 === 102 === Lanyu (Orchid Island) lies off the southeast coast of Taiwan. The island has possessed abundant ecological resources and unique precious aboriginal culture. The Tao tribe is the native resident in the island and the below-ground house is one of its traditional cultures. This research tries to explore the traditional architectural languages and uses the principles of green architecture to modernize and design the new below-ground houses. This research first, through literature reviews and Delphi expert questionnaires, determines the criteria to be used in the below-ground house design and use those criteria to design an initial exemplary below-ground house. Then, the environmental simulation software, Autodesk Ecotect Analysis, is used to modify the house design. Finally, the house design is put on the ground and simulated again using Ecotect Analysis to understand the differences of the environmental performance between the below-ground and on-ground houses. It is hoped that the design concepts proposed in this research can be applied to future coastal architectural design to facilitate the development of green architecture.
