Ken Bangsar condominium is a highly sustainable residential project,comprising of 76 standard units and four triplex penthouses The development was able to reuse an existing building structure of an office building. In additional, numerous energy efficient features were included in the development including the “CHEEL” system which recovers the cold AHU condensate water to cool its lobby and a heat pump to harvest heat from air- conditioning compressors to heat up water for showering. The project was the first to obtain the highest Green Mark award of Goldplus outside of Singapore as well as the first in Malaysia to obtain the GBI Gold award.

Integral Tower is part of a large mixed development titled the Intermark. The 39 storey office tower is located in KL city center. Integral Tower is a highly sustainable Grade A office tower and is targeting LEED Platinum. Its total GFA is about 110,000 sqm.

HSBC building located in KL is nearing its final stages in achieving LEED Gold status.
The 23 storey office building has a total GFA of about 22,000 sqm.

MK 28 is a residential development located at the exclusive Mont Kiara enclave. It comprises of 2 towers of about 40 storeys having total GFA of about 240,087 sqm. Each unit is installed with energy efficient airconditioning system. Common areas are also installed with energy efficient T5 lightings. The use of heat recovery system, green label building materials, motion sensors, etc are some of the features that allowed this development to be one of the most sustainable in Malaysia.

BSD conducted thermal comfort analysis for the enclosed pedestrian areas to evaluate opportunities for energy efficient design. Thermal dynamic simulations were conducted to determine the heat flux on the studied area. The data is then used as boundary conditions for the airflow simulations. The studies showed that based on the cooling provisions and expected human and solar heat load, cooling provisions could be downsized and still achieve acceptable human comfort levels.

Ken Rimba Commercial Center comprises of 109 units of shophouses. The shop are all designed to have cross ventilation and finished with low VOC paint. Lighting systems at common areas are energy efficient types.

This highly sustainable landed housing development comprises of 328 units. The landed houses were designed with more than 90% of them having N-S orientation and cross ventilation with the spaces. Each house is also provided with rainwater harvesting system. IAQ is ensured with the use of low VOC paint.

SP Setia office has been awarded Gold under the Existing building category. BSD conducted energy consumption evaluation and proposed the upgrading of energy consuming equipment such as lighting and cooling systems. BSD also worked with the clients to implement waster recycling programs, water conservation programs, air quality management strategies, etc.
