RESUMO:

Architectural features of buildings, such as the indoor environmental quality, interfere in health, well-being and productivity of their users. In addition, these characteristics also interfere in energy consumption of buildings, and the use of active systems, such as air conditioning, heater and lighting are some of the main responsible for this consumption. One aspect that contributes to this high consumption is the architecture design not integrated to the local climate. This negative impact could be reduced with the use of bioclimatic design strategies to promote users’ thermal and lighting comfort. The contributions of these strategies can be evaluated during the design stage (by computational simulations) and in the use phase of buildings. Evaluating these contributions during the use phase allows identifying the positive and negative aspects of the architectural solutions applied and learning from the correct answers and avoid repetition of errors. Therefore, the objective of this research is to investigate the impacts of bioclimatic design strategies on the thermo-luminous performance and on the satisfaction level of users of an office building during its use phase. As a case study, a building in operation located in a low latitude coastal area with a hot humid weather, was selected. The bioclimatic design strategies of this building were simulated and evaluated during the design stage. The proceedings to achieve the objective defined was a post-occupancy evaluation realized by: direct observations; collection of quantitative data, through environmental measurements in loco; and collection of qualitative data, through satisfaction survey with users. The data collected were compared with reference parameters defined on the literature review and those used in the design stage. As a result, it was verified that the bioclimatic design strategies used provided a high thermal performance to the building, from the technical and from the users’ point of view. However, the same did not occur with the daylight performance, which was compromised by changes in the proposed solutions during the construction and use phase. Among the conclusions, it is emphasized that the intended and simulated performance in the design stage can be impacted by the way the architectural solutions are constructed and used.
