Research Questions:

1. What and How the factors that will affect the thermal comfort in Glass Shed?

2. What kind of ventilation type that glass shed using and how it works?

3. What are the design elements used in glass shed to maximize the visitors' comfort level?

4. How effective are the design elements in acheiving thermal comfort level?

5. What and How the materials used in the design to enhance the ventilation in the glass shed?

(Malaysia Climate) Tropical Climate

•Equatorial and Tropical Belt•Hot and Humid•Average 28 degree celsius•Average Rainfall = 250cm a year•Southwest & Nourtheast Monsoon•Sun Direction = East & West


Thermal Comfort

Thermal Comfort ChartReference: http://auworkshop.autodesk.com/library/building-science/human-thermal-comfort

•Condition of mind that expresses statisfaction with the thermal environment (ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 55)•Hard to measure•Air temperature, humidity, radiant temperature, air velocity, metabolic rates, and clothing levels


Design Consideration

•Building Orientation •Building Context•Location

•Building Design •Openings

•Materials

Passive Design

•Takes advantage of the climate •Comfortable temperature range•Utilises natural sources of heating and cooling(sun & cooling breezes)•Minimize unwanted heat and loss.•Achieve / Enhance thermal comfort level.•Lifetime thermal comfort, low energy bills & low greenhouse gas emmisions.


Cross Ventilation

•Wind entering through window or door•Through the house and out through on the other side•Natural breezes pathway through the structure

Cross Vetilation showed in this Glass Shed's section.


Stack Ventilation

Stack Vetilation showed in this Glass Shed's section.

•Movement of air into and out•Use temperature to move air out.•Hot air rises because lower pressure•Cold air comes in, hot air goes out•(Reverse in cool season)

Chimney


Malay Vernacular Architecture

References: http://nalenda14.blogspot.my/2010/11/malay-vernacular-architecture.html

•Simple and Minimalistic•Timber, Bamboo, Rattan, Tree Roots and Leaves. •High ceilings•Openings / Fenestrations

•Good to climate•Carving (aesthetic)•Elevated•Light Weight•Large Overhang•Open Interior Spaces

Design Features


Malay Vernacular ArchitectureSpaces: Serambi

•Smallest space •Floor level lower than rumah ibu (core)•First greeting space

Malay Vernacular ArchitectureSpaces: Rumah Ibu (Core Space)

•Middle of the house•Largest space•Highest roof and floor level•Lighting reduce to produce coolness•Family gather offical events / gathering Ivy Voo Vui Yee 0319534



Design Elements used in Glass ShedLevelling

•Elevated from ground•Improve air flow movement•Retartdant from direct heat from the ground•Moist ground requires more sunlight to dry



Design Elements used in Glass ShedWall Partition

•Open interior space•Provide a larger ventilation effect without obstruction•Effectively and smooth

Design Elements used in Glass ShedOpenings

•Louvre windows•Control wind angle and volume•Casement window•Gaps between roof and ceiling

Design Elements used in Glass Shed

•Roofs' openings on both sides•Roof spaces cooled the space•Created stack ventilation•'attap roof' , low thermal capacity

Roof Structure


Materials used in Glass Shed

•Steel furniture=Alow air to flow through=Reduce visual obstruction•Steel column=Provide views without any obstruction=Framing purpose=No boundaries between outside and inside




•Steel facade (Roof zinc)=Shading purpose=Release heat (fast)•Glass Panel=Allow maximum natural light=Provide view=Mix with the context




•Brick Wall & Concrete (Toilet, Washroom)=Sound proof=Water resistant=Heat insulator=Durable =Avoid termite and rust =Protection=Easy to get=Cheap



Conclusion

•Did well in ventilation•Derived from Malay Vernacular Architecture•Traditional Vernacular Architecture•Modern materials and design•Combination of past and now•Outlook looks different•Perfer: Fenestrations•Useful and elegant•Steel column works well with the glass•Remain the context surrond•Simplicity•Less is more
