PROJECT 1 GROUP TASK Case Study: Identifying innovative passive design strategies Choose a building that best features a passive design strategy for tropical climate. We had to select one building in Kuala Lumpur and one building in Singapore. The report was based on the following, Have a thorough research on the passive design strategies, the principles and details needed for these passive design strategies to perform best in tropical climate and to achieve thermal comfort in this building/space. Identify two (2) passive design strategies used for each building. Identify an instrument /equipment or software/interview/survey to aid in proving that the passive design strategy is effective in this building. Analyze the monitored temperatures, looking at the effects of solar radiation, thermal mass, insulation, and ventilation. Explanation on how the thermal environment of your case study is affected from natural and man-made factors. Paper format : a. Building In...
