Building Science 1
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.
We decided to study a 2 storey Semi-D which is located in Clover Garden Residence, Cyberjaya.

Learning outcome
Through this project and module, I have learnt to identify environment conditions related to the site, climate, etc. Besides, I have also learnt alot about reducing heat gain in and out the building, ventilations and more. From the project, I have also learnt to think critically when it comes to the problem solving in achieving thermal comfort in a particular space with design strategies.
