Additional significant sustainability benefits of the development include: • The development builds upon an existing heritage building, this provides many benefits:

o Retaining the heritage building in Stage 1 had environmental sustainability benefits. Conserving heritage buildings reduces energy usage associated with demolition, waste disposal and new construction, and promotes sustainable development by conserving the embodied energy in the existing buildings.

o The heritage of the local area is retained while increasing density on an existing site with excellent transportation acess and walkability.

• Innovative approach to consider that the existing building could be retained and the inherent structural capacity utilised in increase the site yield.

• Energy reduction from the minimum regulatory requirements through various strategies such as glazing thermal performance, efficient lighting, efficient hot water heating and efficient airconditioning systems.

• Water efficient showers and a high efficiency instantaneous gas hot water system are proposed. • Best practice water sensitive urban design (WSUD) evidenced by a 100 STORM rating. • Water efficient fixtures and fittings generally plus rain water collection and re-use for toilet flushing

for Levels 3 to 7. • Cyclist provisions for the employees and visitors that are 100% in excess of planning scheme

requirements. • Provisions to properly manage recyclables and waste from the site. • Low VOC paints, adhesives, sealants and floor coatings/coverings to improve indoor air quality. • Building Users Guide.

2. Introduction

2.1 Description of the site and building

The proposed development is located on an approximately 2.730m2 site at 423-425 Smith Street Fitzroy and comprises the addition of office floors above the existing heritage building. This SMP relates to Stage 2 of the development, that is: Level 3 and above only. Stage 2 of the development comprises approximately 7,350sqm of base building office space (excluding circulation and amenities) with an assumed base building population of 735 people (based on AS1668.2-2012 Table Al tabulated rates for office areas).

This SMP relates to Stage 2 of the development, that is: Level 3 and above only. Notwithstanding, there were some elements of Stage 1 of the development that were provided to service Stage 2, namely: bicycle parking, rain water tank and associated rain water reticulation; these items are included in this report where they are applicable to Stage 2.

2.2 Assessment tools

The appropriate ESD assessment tool for this development is defined in the Yarra Planning Scheme Clause 22.17 Environmentally Sustainable Development.

BESS (Built Environment Sustainability Scorecard)

BESS assesses water and energy efficiency, stormwater quality, indoor environment quality and overall environmental sustainability performance of new buildings and alterations. It was created to assist builders and developers to demonstrate that they meet sustainability information requirements as part of a planning permit applications. BESS supports the 'Sustainable Design Assessment in the Planning Process' framework.

The BESS tool assesses projects against a benchmark in nine environmental categories (refer to Appendix A for the list of categories). Within each category, points are available for various design strategies relevant to that category. There are four mandatory categories with minimum pass rates: • Indoor Environment Quality (IEQ). • Energy. • Water. • Stormwater.

The overall BESS score is shown as a percentage figure. This figure represents a percentage improvement over a benchmark project.

• A score of 50% and higher equates to 'best practice' and is an effective pass of the BESS tool.

• A score of 70% and higher equates to BESS 'excellence' and exists as a higher benchmark in the tool.

Daylight A minimum of 30% of the area of Stage 2 base building office spaces to have natural daylight.'

The design for levels 3 to 7 has been assessed using a cumputerised simulation model as submitted as part of the VCAT evidence; the related Daylight Assessment Report is provided in Appendix B. The Daylight Report was prepared on a previous scheme and shows 40% of the L3 to L7 floor area achieving a daylight factor (DF) of 2% so long as the visible light transmission (VLT) for all primary glazing is not less than 32%. The proposed (revised) design is similar to that modelled but increases the window to floor area ratio; this means that the percentage of floor area achieving a DF of 2% will be increased (improved) in the proposed (revised) design. Revised modelling on the proposed (revised) design therefore has not been performed and a (conservative) daylighting achievement of 40% of the floor area achieving a DF of 2% is used in this SMP for Levels 3 to 7.

Enable glare control by the provision for internal blinds that have a visual light transmittance of less than 10% and which are controllable by all affected occupants.

1 BESS does not include appropriate coverage of IEQ for this building type. There is only one question for IEQ and, despite the BESS tool notes stating that 30% of the nominated area achieving a 2% daylight factor (DE) is adequate to score credits, BESS requires 60% floor coverage at 2% DF in order to achieve the required 50% IEQ category score. 30% was noted as acceptable for best practice in the VCAT evidence (Appendix C page 3) and the additional improvement to 40% coverage to 2% DF for Levels 3 to 7 was agreed in the VCAT decision. 2 Refer to footnote 1 regarding the inadequacy of BESS scoring for this building type. It is noted that I EQ is improved through the outdoor air and low VOC provisions as noted in this SMP, but this is not scored in BESS. It is considered that the overall IEQ response as noted in this section of the project achieves best practice.

Utilisation of inherent structural capacity

An innovative approach of the development is to consider that the existing building could be retained and the inherent structural capacity utilised (built over) to increase the site yield.

This process will have a positive impact on the maintainability of the building

Bicycle parking 100% more than Planning Scheme

The bicycle parking allowance is over 100% more than the planning scheme requirement.

BESS credits 3 points overall for a 50% improvement, therefore 2 points are claimed for the extension to a 100% improvement.

Whilst this is not an "innovation" as such, the innovation point(s) are claimed in BESS because the project response extends well beyond the BESS benchmarks.

Maintenance Responsibility standard

The project aims to be environmentally responsible in the selection of materials. Particular items of note include: • Insitu concrete will have a minimum of

20% replacement cementitious material such as fly ash or blast furnace slag. These replacement materials are waste products and reduce the embodied energy and CO2 emissions of conventional concrete that uses only Portland cement. This commitment is subject to availability of the replacement material, structural requirements and project management constraints.

• All timber to be certified through an accredited certification scheme such as the Forrest Stewardship Council (FSC) or the Australian Forest Certification Scheme (AFCS).

• Low VOC paints, adhesives, sealants, floor coverings and engineered timbers to improve indoor air quality.

What % of the nominated floor area has at least 2% daylight factor?

BESS does not include appropriate coverage of IEQ for this building type. There is only one question for IEQ and, despite the BESS tool notes stating that 30% of the nominated area achieving a 2% daylight factor (DF) is adequate to score credits, BESS requires 60% floor coverage at 2% DF in order to achieve the required 50% IEQ category score. 30% was noted as acceptable for best practice in the VCAT evidence (refer to SMP Appendix C page 3) and the additional improvement to 40% coverage to 2% DF for Levels 3-7 was agreed in the VCAT decision. It is noted that 1E0 is improved through the outdoor air and low VOC provisions as noted in this SMP, but this is not scored in BESS. It is therefore considered that the overall 1E0 response of the project achieves best practice.

Note: • The Daylight Report was prepared on a previous scheme and shows 40% of the L3 to L7 floor

423-425 Smith Street, Fitzroy

Summary

This report provides a daylight assessment for the 423-425 Smith Street project in Fitzroy and is based on planning documentation (refer to Table 3 in Appendix A) and includes significant external influences such as nearby future developments and build-ing features such as facade fins. The purpose of this assessment is to benchmark the proposed building against available daylight performance standards used in Australia, including the Built Environment Sustainability Scorecard (BESS) and Green Star. The scope of this assessment is limited to the office space of the new tower development and excludes the refurbishment of the existing building and all retail spaces.

The best practice standard set by CASBE (Council Alliance for the Sustainable Built Environment) through the BESS tool is 30% of the floor area to achieve a daylight factor of 2%, The Green Building Council of Australia (GBCA) sets a higher benchmark of 40% of the floor area to achieve a daylight factor of 2%.

The assessment indicates that the proposed building meets the relevant BESS and Green Star daylight benchmarks. This is achieved so long as the visible light transmission (VLT) for all primary glazing is no less than 32%. The daylighting aspects of the design achieve best practice when compared to the relevant industry benchmarks, the proposal is therefore consistent with the objectives of the Yarra Planning Scheme, for exam-ple:

• 22.10 Built Form and Design Policy: minimise the need for artificial lighting during daylight hours.

• 22.17 Environmentally Sustainable Development: achieve best practice in envi-ronmentally sustainable development and achieve a healthy indoor environment quality including the provision of natural daylight.

1 Introduction

The proposed building at 423-425 Smith Street is an 8-storey, mixed-use development comprising office, retail space and car-parking. Level G and Level 1 include office and retail space and will be developed as a refurbishment of the existing building. Level 2 is car-parking only and the next 5 floors, from Level 3 to Level 7, are all new office space to be developed as the new tower. Figure 1 shows a perspective view of the building from the south-east corner, indicating the general form of the new tower and the facade recesses that extend from Level 3 to Level 6. The floor-plates are set-back above Level 3, which can be seen in the floor plans and model images provided in Appendix A. The image also shows the massing of surrounding buildings that have been assumed in the model with further details provided in Figure 4.

Figure 1: Perspective view of model

The proposed office tower has full-height vision glazing to all facade orientations. Ex-ternal shading comprises vertical fin elements with irregular spacing; fin spacing is on average 1000mm and reducing to approximately 500mm on the north-west corner of the building where the floor-plates are set-back. There proposal includes two types of facade glazing; primary glazing making up most of the vision glass with secondary glaz-ing filling in the facade recesses and also being used for all glazing on Level 7.

The method of assessment for this project includes a detailed analysis of the proposed building using computer simulation. The analysis is used to predict the depth of daylight penetration into the office spaces, which is then compared to the relevant benchmarks. The benchmarks used in this assessment are based on the calculation of Daylight Factor (DF), which is defined as the ratio of indoor to outdoor illuminance and expressed as a percentage. It is calculated in the absence of direct sunlight and consequently captures information relating to the quantity of diffuse daylight.

2 Performance metrics

This assessment is based on two relevant benchmarks currently used for the assessment of office daylight in Victoria. The first of these frameworks, BESS, incorporates a daylight metric by CASBE (Council Alliance for a Sustainable Built Environment; an association of Victorian councils, of which the City of Yarra are a member). The second framework, Green Star, is a sustainability rating tool commonly used by design-ers to demonstrate the achievement of a high level of environmental performance. In both of these tools, points are awarded for designs that improve beyond normal prac-tice.

2.1 BESS

Daylight performance in BESS comes under the sub-category of Indoor Environment Quality (IEQ). Credits are awarded in BESS when it is demonstrated that more than 30% of the nominated area achieves a daylight factor of at least 2% under uniform sky conditions. Achieving this level of daylight performance would be consistent with a development that achieved the overall best-practice benchmark.

The BESS benchmark is achieved when it is demonstrated that more than 30% of the nominated area achieves a daylight factor of at least 2%.

2.2 Green Star

Daylight performance in Green Star comes under the sub-category of Visual Comfort. Daylight performance can be demonstrated using a number of different approaches, all of which require demonstration of a minimum level of glare control in addition to ad-equate daylight reaching the working plane. The approach to glare control chosen for this assessment is the provision of internal blinds that have a visual light transmittance of less than 10% and which are controllable by all affected occupants. The approach to meeting the daylight criterion is to use the Daylight Factor calculation and to demon-strate that more than 40% of the nominated area achieves a daylight factor of at least 2%. Green Star allows the use of either a uniform or overcast sky condition for the calculation; the uniform sky condition has been selected for consistency with the BESS assessment.

The Green Star benchmark is achieved when it is demonstrated that an effective glare control strategy has been implemented and more than 40% of the nominated area achieves a daylight factor of at least 2%.


3 Simulation model

The simulation model has been constructed using Sketch-Up modelling software and simulations completed using the Radiance synthetic imaging system, which is the in-dustry standard simulation engine for this type of work. Complete details relating to the model configuration are provided in Appendix A including a list of design documents used to construct the model in Table 3.

Material properties

A key input to the daylight assessment includes the proposed material properties, includ-ing surface reflectance for opaque elements and visible light transmittance for glazing elements. Table 1 provides a summary of the material properties that have been used in the assessment. Wherever possible, material properties are based on information pro-vided by the architectural team, however, some assumptions have been made where this information is not available.

The visible light transmittance of the primary glazing is assumed to be 32% which sets the lower limit and minimum value to be specified in order for the assessment benchmarks to be achieved.

4 Results

4.1 Glare

The glare requirements for Green Star will be met via the specification of an appropriate internal blind system. This project will commit to glare control that meets the Green Star criteria such as specifying internal blinds with a maximum visible light transmission of 10% in addition to a manual control mechanism that enables the office occupants to raise an lower the blinds as required.

Surrounding buildings

Figure 4 shows the development site (pink dotted line) within the context of Smith Street and the surrounding buildings. All modeling is based on the assumption that the surrounding sites could be developed as indicated by the blue and green mark-up.

Interior configuration

The proposed design includes exposed services beneath the soffit and structural beams. The impact of mechanical services on daylight penetration has been simulated using an equivalent ceiling located at the height of the underside of the proposed services. The effective ceiling height for Levels 3 to 6 is at 2400mm above finished floor level (FFL) throughout the core area and increasing to 2950mm within 1.3m of the perimeter. Level 7 does not have exposed services and the proposed ceiling is located at 3500mm above FFL.

Simulation parameters

The analysis has been completed using the Radiance synthetic imaging system. The model has been configured to calculate diffuse daylight penetration into the building.

Project Experience

Daylight

17-23 Wills The design of this high-profile residential development in Melbourne was strongly

Street, influenced by planning considerations concerning the impact of the tower on daylight

Melbourne amenity to the residents on the adjacent site. Jon undertook a detailed assessment

of sunlight and daylight to review the impact of different building setbacks and this

information was presented as part of an expert witness statement at VCAT. This

work led to an on-going engagement with the City of Melbourne and discussions

relating to the impact of high-rise development on daylight amenity in residential

buildings.


61 429 357 751 • [-] [email protected] • 8 www.visergvcom au 2 4

600 Glenferrie The proposed 6-storey residential apartment block in Melbourne aimed to maximise

Road, the development potential of the site whilst still achieving good ESD outcomes.

Melbourne The high density of development presented challenges with respect to solar access

and daylight access. Jon worked with the developer and architect to assess building

massing and the internal layout of apartments to meet SDAPP guidelines and

maximise residential amenity.

452-456 The architectural intent of this residential development was to reflect the surrounding

Bridge Road, buildings and sky so as to blend into the landscape and allow the heritage facade

Melbourne to remain prominent in the streetscape. Jon's role was to assess the scheme with

respect to solar reflections towards road vehicles and pedestrians, preparing an

expert statement for VCAT and advising the architect on material selection and

facade articulation.

AAMI Park, A critical requirement for the design of sporting arenas is to ensure adequate solar

Melbourne radiation to maintain healthy grass growth. Jon completed a detailed analytical

study to predict solar radiation for the new AAMI stadium. He combined local

climatic data with a 3D simulation model to predict hourly radiation levels, taking

into account the effects of overshadowing, cloud cover and the spectrum of radiation

that is essential for plant growth.

Williams A glare analysis was undertaken to assess the potential for disabling solar reflections

Landing to interfere with train driver control and ability to read signalling on approach

Railway to Williams Landing railway station in Melbourne's outer growth suburbs. Jon

Station, completed the analysis, which comprised a range of simulation methods including

Melbourne solar visualisations, reflection maps and luminance calculations using the industry

standard Hassall methodology.

ANZ This Docklands building is the corporate headquarters for ANZ and an exemplar in

Docklands, sustainable building design, achieving 6 stars under the Green Star rating system.

Melbourne The facade design was performance-driven and optimised to reduce peak solar

loads and maximise indoor environment quality. Jon completed an analysis of the

perimeter daylighting performance and glare potential, as well an analysis of the

roof-mounted, sun-control devices for each of the atria spaces.

171 Collins This development proposal for this office building in Melbourne required careful

Street, facade design to avoid any aesthetic conflicts with the adjacent St Paul's Cathedral.

Melbourne Jon undertook advanced lighting simulation to create physically accurate predictions

of the buildings appearance for a range of glass options and various natural lighting

conditions. Robust technical analysis was central to the success of this planning

application.

Let There Be Arup worked with international architecture firm, Woods Bagot, to develop a

Light, daylighting pattern guide to streamline the process of daylight assessment for

Melbourne new buildings. Jon was integral to developing the analysis methodology and

the assessment criterion, which applies the Useful Daylight Illuminance (UDI)

methodology. The pattern guide is used instead of detailed daylight calculations at

the early design stage.

One One One This iconic building on the Brisbane River has a high performance facade with

Eagle Street, daylight redirection achieved through the use of custom-designed, internal sun-

Brisbane louvres. Jon designed a custom louvre profile that was tailored to the building

orientation and local climate and wrote a bespoke analysis tool for this purpose. The

final design maximised the potential for glare-free daylighting and made a significant

contribution to the high quality of the indoor office environment.

Reserve Bank Direct sun glare at the RBA building in Sydney was causing discomfort for building

of Australia, occupants located at the main reception desk and interfering with their ability

Sydney to work. Jon's glare analysis identified low angle sun entering the building on

winter mornings and then analysed this information to identify possible mitigation

strategies. The analysis used complex ray-tracing and a full 3D model of the RBA

and surrounding buildings in the Sydney CBD.

48 Martin The aim of this refurbishment was to improve visual amenity for building occupants

Place, Sydney during winter when no direct sunlight reaches the lower levels of the atrium. Jon

competed detailed daylighting analysis to inform the glass specification for new roof

glazing and to predict the potential benefit of a roof-mounted daylight redirection

system.

Simon Fulcrum Urban Planning Pty Ltd

Dear Simon

Re: Water efficient landscaping, 423-425 Smith St Fitzroy. VCAT Conditions item 5(g)

Further to discussion with Paul Graham, the following points below should address this issue:

• All plants are hardy species and suited to Melbourne's climate.

All plants, except for the Wisteria vine, are local Port Phillip, font line coastal species. They grow in very poor, well drained beach sand soils and are therefore adapted to tough, drought situations. Growing as they do, on the front line of coastal exposure, they can withstand severe winds which is something they will encounter on levels three and four. Wisteria is a proven tough plant in Melbourne and survived the Millennium drought in Melbourne.

• All raised planters are lm deep

Specifying planters this Deep, allows the soils to retain moisture and feed the plants in the event of an irrigation malfunction. As noted above, the plants grow naturally in beach sand so are adapted to dry situations.

• Drip irrigation

All garden beds are fed by drip irrigation.This will only need to be on in the summer months and even then only for an hour twice a week as a maximum. In the cooler months it will be turned off.

Attached with this letter is the amended plan and elevation with the above changes all included. If you require any further information please do not hesitate to call.
