Web Earth Pte Ltd is an environmental and sustainability consultant that delivers holistic solutions for creating eco-friendly buildings and infrastructures.
The company is a wholly owned subsidiary of Web Structures, specialising in sustainable building design, water resources and carbon management.
Web Earths' unique, individual approach to each of their projects means innovative, tailor-made solutions are provided whether it be for a luxury resort hotel, residential skyscraper or a complex commercial and industrial project.
Our current project partners include architects such as Foster & Partners, Aedas, Hamiltons International and SCDA. We also provide specialist design services to other multi-disciplinary engineering companies.
Web Earth's high-quality sustainable design and simulation places the practice and its talented team at the forefront of the engineering world, demonstrating an in-depth knowledge that continues to stretch the boundaries of existing engineering work practices.
Utilising some of the most advanced simulation tools available, Web Earth continue to provide creative solutions to even the most challenging projects.
Our team of environmentalists is made up of Green Mark, GBI and LEED certified individuals who are constantly updating their knowledge-base through research and innovation. Our people at Web Earth never stop learning.
At Web Earth we believe that certification is just the beginning of creating a sustainable project. To truly achieve a sustainable building, we take a life cycle view to look at a building's impact throughout its whole life, from materials manufacturing, construction to eventual demolition and disposal.
Using a systems thinking approach helps us to visualise and solve complex environmental problems. From this we are able to establish the buildings total footprint in terms of energy or carbon emissions.
Passive design strategies
WEB Earth employs passive design strategies to naturally light, heat and ventilate buildings.
This reduces operating costs as well as enhancing occupant comfort levels through improved air quality, and internal acoustics.
Currently, buildings consume between 25-50% of a country's energy use. They use 40% of raw materials produced, while generating 30% of the total waste stream.
By 2030, it is expected that 60% of the world population will live in urban areas. Inefficient buildings constructed to meet these needs will lock in detrimental energy and carbon impacts for years to come.
WEB Earth's integrated approach reduces the impact of development on the environment, creating buildings that can have a positive effect on their surroundings.
Green buildings do not have to cost more. Studies have shown that green buildings cost no more than their orthodox counterparts, attractive premiums for rental and increasing asset value.
Building Simulation - using state of the art building simulation to create effective design concepts that reduce energy, resources and water needs through integrative design.
WEB Earth studies the life-cycle carbon, energy and costs to quantify and assess a multitude of design concepts.
Optimisation of design concepts enables a building to achieve the lowest possible carbon and energy footprint.
Operational CO2, generated through a building's energy and water consumption during its occupation, is often the main focus of creating sustainable buildings.
To create real low carbon buildings, the life-cycle CO2 from all the building's components must be considered.
Life-cycle analysis of
building emissions
Increasing urbanisation leads to increases in stormwater runoff. This is one of the main causes of urban flooding and damage to aquatic ecosystems.
Sustainable drainage practices encourage retention and infiltration of stormwater, restoring groundwater recharge and re-establishing the natural water cycle.
Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems (SUDS) prevent flooding and improve water quality as well as create local amenity, improve landscape aesthetics and enhance biodiversity.
Recreational opportunities from clean water bodies can revitalise communities and transform polluted rivers and lakes.
WEB Earth's hydrological and hydraulic specialists carry out design and detailing of water sensitive urban infrastructure in a range of diverse environments.
