case study: proposing passive building design strategies
In a group of 6, students are required to choose a building and study the basic building design for thermal comfort. Record and analyse the existing condition in terms of thermal comfort of the interior and propose a passive design to enhance the thermal comfort of the space. Elaborate the passive design principles and prove it by calculating the OTTV (Overall Thermal Transfer Value).
Our group decided to study a 3 storeys bungalow located in Gita Bayu, Seri Kembangan.
Below are the 2 A3 research boards that we did:-
