• Orientation for exposure to cooling breezes• Increase natural ventilation by reducing barriers to air paths through the
building • Provision of fans to provide ventilation and air movement in the absence
of breezes• Floor plan zoning to maximize comfort for daytime activities and sleeping
comfort• Appropriate windows and glazing to minimize unwanted heat gains and
maximize ventilation• Effective shading(including planting)• Adequate levels of appropriate insulation• High thermal mass construction in regions with significant diurnal ranges• Low thermal mass construction in regions with low diurnal range
Passive Design Elements

Swimming pool and Koi Pond as Evaporative Cooling
• Provide evaporative cooling for house
• Acts as a heat sink and helps to provided whilst keeping the evaporative process outside
• Avoid elevating indoor humidity level

• Clear orientation for all is openings and window
• Adjustable windows and openings are used to promote controllable cross ventilation
• Full Sliding glass walls
Passive Ventilation by Space Planning

Wire Netting Screen Wall
• Used to receive heat from the sun
• It helps to reduce heat gain from other solid wall (East and West walls)
![Page 7: Asian Architecture Presentation Slides](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102811/58f2d3661a28abf92a8b4609/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Earth Coupling Method
• Thermal masses will be protect from outside for example the floor and slabs
• Can be substantially cooler by absorbing most of the heat when entering the building
• Deep earth temperatures are lower, it assumes enclosing subfloor areas to allow earth coupling to lower down the temperature and heat gain occurs

PROBLEMS OF BUILDING IN A TROPICAL ENVIRONMENT
By Pablo Idris
![Page 9: Asian Architecture Presentation Slides](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102811/58f2d3661a28abf92a8b4609/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Humidity• As Malaysia is a tropical country, high humidity throughout the year is assured.
• The average relative humidity lies around 80% per month
• Extreme humidity can cause discomfort to occupants in a building
![Page 10: Asian Architecture Presentation Slides](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102811/58f2d3661a28abf92a8b4609/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Rainfall• The tropical country of Malaysia receive an average of 225 mm of rainfall per month.
• So a common issue met here will be the constant downpour hence roof shelters are a must in design.
![Page 11: Asian Architecture Presentation Slides](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102811/58f2d3661a28abf92a8b4609/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Water content• Due to the rainfall constantly face, water content in the soil is expected to be high
• This in turn will cause soil erosion to occur which will cause difficulties in support for the foundation of the building
![Page 12: Asian Architecture Presentation Slides](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102811/58f2d3661a28abf92a8b4609/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Heat
• Malaysia being at the equator receives a constant sunlight throughout the year which will in turn cause sun glare to occur during the most intense sunlight of the day.
• The issue here is the same as rainfall where roof shelters are to be designed in the building
![Page 13: Asian Architecture Presentation Slides](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102811/58f2d3661a28abf92a8b4609/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Haze
• Haze is the main factor that contributes the extent solar radiation, large shading devices are to be put in such case
• Cause health problems such as: eye inflammation, nasal irritation, throat irritation and lung tissue inflammation

BUILDING ORIENTATION AS A SIGNIFICANT PART OF THE S11
HOUSE
By Koh Sung Jie
![Page 15: Asian Architecture Presentation Slides](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102811/58f2d3661a28abf92a8b4609/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
• Orient its long directional axis towards north-south
• Minimize surface area exposure to east-west
• East-west heat rejection walls are erected responding to sun path
Heat Rejection

Ventilation
• More wind directed from the south
• Long axis captures more wind
• Cross ventilation allows constant cooling within the house
• Hot air does not linger in the house

HOW DOES THE BUILDING ORIENTATION INFLUENCES OTHER
PASSIVE DESIGNS?
By Liew Jin
![Page 19: Asian Architecture Presentation Slides](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102811/58f2d3661a28abf92a8b4609/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Ventilation
• Improve and circulate air ventilation indoors and outdoors
• Implement use of cross ventilation throughout the building
![Page 20: Asian Architecture Presentation Slides](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102811/58f2d3661a28abf92a8b4609/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Thermal-Massed Materials
• Reduce intake of heat energy• Slanted from sun-rise and sun-set
East-West Walls
1.Low in heat capacity and high in thermal insulation. • Lowers heat absorption• Reduce heat transfer
2. Has great direct reflection or screening solar radiation• reduce direct heat gain.
Also, lightweight materials were implemented into the design. • low thermal mass are usually more suitable for buildings in the tropical climates,
especially the walls exposed to the sun.

HOW DOES THE ORIENTATION GOVERN THE DESIGN OF THE
BUILDING?
By Kenneth Chang
![Page 24: Asian Architecture Presentation Slides](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102811/58f2d3661a28abf92a8b4609/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Large Overhangs• Climate commonly experiences in a tropical climate is rain and sun
• Large overhangs are able to provide shade to both climate faced
• Large overhangs also enable large vertical openings to be designed
![Page 25: Asian Architecture Presentation Slides](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102811/58f2d3661a28abf92a8b4609/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Double Volume Space• Huge double volume space promotes cross ventilation with openings on both ends
• Bigger volumes can create better and cooler air flow
• Effective way to cool the interior and its occupants
![Page 26: Asian Architecture Presentation Slides](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102811/58f2d3661a28abf92a8b4609/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Open Fenestration
• Openings are placed in the North and South facade of the building to receive minimal sunlight
• Also enables cross ventilation to occur through the openings on both ends which cools the interior
![Page 27: Asian Architecture Presentation Slides](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102811/58f2d3661a28abf92a8b4609/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Facade Devoid of Openings• Facades completely devoid of openings are designed on the East and West façade
• This is to prevent direct sunlight penetrating into the interior
• Which in turn minimizes heat gain from the time where heat is at its most intense
![Page 28: Asian Architecture Presentation Slides](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102811/58f2d3661a28abf92a8b4609/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Pools
• Pools are placed at both ends of the building which has openings
• This allows evaporative cooling to occur
• When the pool evaporates it causes the surrounding atmosphere to cool down
• Wind blowing into the interior of the building will bring the cooled air in and hence cool the inside
![Page 29: Asian Architecture Presentation Slides](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102811/58f2d3661a28abf92a8b4609/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
WHAT ARE THE DRAWBACKS OF PASSIVE DESIGN IN A TROPICAL COUNTRY?
By Ng Ee Shiung
![Page 30: Asian Architecture Presentation Slides](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102811/58f2d3661a28abf92a8b4609/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Problems with Exposed Materials
![Page 31: Asian Architecture Presentation Slides](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102811/58f2d3661a28abf92a8b4609/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Efflorescence • Occurs when concrete or brick walls get in contact with water
• Salt crystals form on wall
• Mostly a cosmetic problem, sometimes indicate internal weakness
![Page 32: Asian Architecture Presentation Slides](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102811/58f2d3661a28abf92a8b4609/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Rust
• Exposed metal such as gates, fences, beams are susceptible to rust• Tropical climate is wet and humid, abundance of oxygen and H2O, key
catalysts for rust
![Page 33: Asian Architecture Presentation Slides](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102811/58f2d3661a28abf92a8b4609/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Insect Infestation• Termites, mosquitos, flies are common sight
• Composite yard in S11 house is perfect for termites
• Damp wood, fallen leaves, tree stumps, are termites' natural habitat
• Open water, stagnant drains, small water ponds, perfect for mosquitos
• Passive designs prioritize using natural energy such as large overhangs can cause unwanted guests
![Page 34: Asian Architecture Presentation Slides](https://reader038.fdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102811/58f2d3661a28abf92a8b4609/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Noise
• Traffic jams are a regular occurrence, causing air and noise pollution
• Passively designed houses that are located near the main suffers, for example: S11 House.
