Abstract

This work was based on earlier research of Pasa and Braghini (2010), which evaluated the energy efficiency of single-family buildings for the capital of southern Brazil. This time we decided to take residence which shows better performance as standard and do the test with four different configurations of building materials. We used the degree-day method to simulate the amount of energy required for cooling and heating in the residence for each of the settings for the city of Curitiba. We can observe that the adopted construction material influenced the final result.
