安琪广场拥有328，000平方英尺的优质办公空间，专为最大限度的灵活性而设计。建筑结构及其力学

1 Angel Square contains 328,000 sq ft of high quality office space, specifically designed for maximum flexibilty. The building structure and its mechanical & electrical systems allow occupiers to easily reorganise accommodation and subdivide space, so as needs change, the building stays relevant – without excessive refit costs.It is the highest scoring BREEAM 'Outstanding' building the country, and sets a new national benchmark in sustainable design within the commercial sector.

1安吉尔广场的设计是为了提供50%的能源消耗相比，合作公司目前的曼彻斯特综合体和80%的减少碳。这将使经营成本减少30%。

1 Angel Square has been designed to deliver a 50% reduction in energy consumption compared to The Co-operative’s current Manchester complex and an 80% reduction in carbon. This will lead to a reduction in operating costs of up to 30%.

破土动工的特点包括双层皮肤的外墙，以尽量减少全年的加热和冷却，地下混凝土土管，提供一定量的免费加热和冷却进入新鲜空气。在建筑物内，混凝土的热质量被重新利用，将300，000平方英尺的混凝土暴露在办公室地板上，形成天花板。混凝土起到热海绵的作用，被动地吸收热量，减少冷却建筑所需的能量。最后，利用中庭的自然叠加效应，从阳台边缘提取废气，从而消除了对核心内大量空间需求的提取提升管的需求。在被排放到屋顶的最高点之前，空气会通过一个热交换器将热量加热到下面的办公室。

Ground breaking engineering features include a double-skinned façade to minimise heating and cooling throughout the year and underground concrete earth tubes that provide an amount of free heating and cooling for the incoming fresh air. The thermal mass of concrete is employed again within the building by exposing 300,000sq ft of concrete that forms the ceilings to the office floors.  The concrete acts as a thermal sponge, passively soaking up heat and reducing the amount of energy needed to cool the building.  Waste air is finally extracted over the balcony edge using the natural stack effect of the atrium thus negating the need for large space-hungry extract risers within the cores.   Before being expelled at the highest point of the roof, the air passes through a heat-exchanger that recyles the heat to warm the incoming air in to the offices below.

3 DReid公司设立了一个旧水回收系统和一个雨水收集系统，以保证低耗水量，在使用英国合作农场的油菜种子为该建筑物的CHP发电厂生产燃料时，将实施合作社的当地采购和可持续性原则，剩余的作物壳将被回收为动物饲料。多余的能量可以被提供回电网，并被更广泛的Noma开发利用，废物能量通过一台用于冷却建筑物的吸收式制冷机进行输送。

3DReid incorporated a recycling system for used water and a rainwater harvesting system to guarantee low water consumption.The Co-operative’s local sourcing and sustainability principles are put into practice in using rape seed from British Co-operative farms to produce the fuel for the building’s CHP power plant.  The remaining husks of the crop will be recycled into animal feed. Excess energy can be supplied back to the grid and utilised by the wider NOMA development, with waste energy being sent through an absorption chiller, used to cool the building.

设计师们已经解决了全球变暖的问题，并在2050年的天气预报数据下对这座建筑进行了防御工事。因此，这座建筑可以应对夏季气温上升3-5度，冬季降雨量增加30%。随着平均年气温的上升，建筑物的结构和环境系统变得更加高效。

The designers have addressed the issue of global warming and future-proofed the building against predicted weather data for 2050. So the building can cope with a potential 3-5 degree increase in summer temperature and 30% more rainfall in winter.  The building’s fabric and environmental systems have been designed to become more efficient as average annual temperatures rise.

其他创新领域包括实施电动汽车充电点，这是由低碳CHP提供的，以及开发了一个建筑用户应用程序(App)，该应用程序可以实时传递用户关于建筑物运行情况的信息。

Other areas of innovation are the implementation of electrical pool car charging points, fed from the low carbon CHP and the development of a building user ‘App’ which relays real time user information on how the building is performing.
