With a clear mandate to show tightly integrated design, simulation, optimization and building science, the team produced a highly modern, performance-based design of a zero energy home.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u201cCongratulations to team gt.5 for this accomplishment,\u201d said Augenbroe. \u201c\u003Cem\u003EPrototype 5\u003C\/em\u003E demonstrates Georgia Tech\u0027s leadership in guiding advanced design solutions through building science and computation.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ETwenty-eight university teams from the U.S. and Canada competed in this first annual competition to develop cost-effective zero energy ready homes for mainstream builders. In late April the teams presented their innovative designs aimed to transform housing in America to a panel of national experts and researchers in high performance building. These innovations will be incorporated into the Department of Energy and National Renewable Energy Lab\u2019s effort to fight climate change.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EFor more information on the competition and to see a complete list of winners, visit \u003Ca href=\u0022http:\/\/www.homeinnovation.com\/DOEChallengeHomeStudentDesignCompetition\u0022 title=\u0022www.homeinnovation.com\/DOEChallengeHomeStudentDesignCompetition\u0022\u003Ewww.homeinnovation.com\/DOEChallengeHomeStudentDesignCompetition\u003C\/a\u003E.\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":"","field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Team of master\u0027s students wins in two categories at student design competition"}],"uid":"27814","created_gmt":"2014-05-09 09:22:31","changed_gmt":"2016-10-08 03:16:22","author":"Lisa Herrmann","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","dateline":{"date":"2014-05-09T00:00:00-04:00","iso_date":"2014-05-09T00:00:00-04:00","tz":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"hg_media":{"296091":{"id":"296091","type":"image","title":"DOE competition","body":null,"created":"1449244514","gmt_created":"2015-12-04 15:55:14","changed":"1475894995","gmt_changed":"2016-10-08 02:49:55","alt":"DOE competition","file":{"fid":"199404","name":"doe_competition.jpg","image_path":"\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/doe_competition_0.jpg","image_full_path":"http:\/\/tlwarc.hg.gatech.edu\/\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/doe_competition_0.jpg","mime":"image\/jpeg","size":305628,"path_740":"http:\/\/tlwarc.hg.gatech.edu\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/740xx_scale\/public\/images\/doe_competition_0.jpg?itok=95fUvt1M"}}},"media_ids":["296091"],"groups":[{"id":"1221","name":"College of Design"}],"categories":[{"id":"129","name":"Institute and Campus"},{"id":"137","name":"Architecture"},{"id":"135","name":"Research"}],"keywords":[{"id":"167177","name":"School of Architecture"},{"id":"170926","name":"Student Design competition"}],"core_research_areas":[{"id":"39501","name":"People and Technology"}],"news_room_topics":[{"id":"71911","name":"Earth and Environment"}],"event_categories":[],"invited_audience":[],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003ELisa Herrmann\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EDirector of Communications\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ECollege of Architecture\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E404-385-0693\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"email":["lisa.herrmann@coa.gatech.edu"],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
