Project 1

ASSESSING DAYLIGHT & THERMAL COMFORT AT MODERN HOUSES​

​

In this project, we were required to choose either a corner lot terrace house or a semi detached house to analyse on shading and lighting. We have to analyse 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 space. Using apps on our smartphones for measuring and collecting data, we have to identify issues if there is and propose a passive solution.

​Through this project I have acquired the basic understanding of passive building design strategies used to achieve comfort level. This is important as it uses little to no energy and less cost to counter climate change. I have also learned how to use a few application on my smartphone to measure and collect data about a space through analysing the chosen space.
