How could a redesigned and or renovated Napier Campus Building function as a demonstration laboratory to support curriculum initiatatives?
For example:
Incorporate a student-managed wind turbine that generates electricity for interior lighting. Have students maintain the turbine and track kilowatts generated against weather data and windspeed.
Install 5 different types of roofs in an area of the building: black EPDM, white EPDM, ballasted, and 2 types of vegetated roofs and have students keep track of surface temperature, stormwater run-off, and life-cycle performance of each type of roof.
What ideas like these should be implemented / considered?
