Heat Index: Bamboo House
![Page 20: Community Research on Thermal Comfort, Lighting Conditions ...](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022011723/61d2d953e6ef7c44e55d33b3/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Interpretation of Data:Lighting and Cross Ventilation
• Air exchange rate and light inside houses depends on the design and the surrounding environment, not the building material.
• Openings positioned at effective locations (cross ventilation below the roof, windows, ventilation blocks) were measured in many test houses.
• In bamboo, soil cement blocks and selected home lots, the cross ventilation rates were high but still comfortable
• In most concrete houses and the steel frame, designs were not sufficient.
![Page 21: Community Research on Thermal Comfort, Lighting Conditions ...](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022011723/61d2d953e6ef7c44e55d33b3/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Interpretation of Data:Heat Storage of Walls
• For small houses in tropical countries thermal mass has no positive effect, as it has in temperate climates. Fast night time cooling is wanted, while temperature drop will never reach uncomfortable degrees. Heavy construction delays this cool-down. During day time, mass is soon heated up again, as it did not reduce much in the night time.
• More comfortable concept: lighter construction with good cross ventilation

Initial Observations
• Temperature
• Concrete and steel frame houses – temperature was between 32°C - 40°C during daytime
• Only the ground floor of two-story houses stayed below 32°C
• Measurement in bamboo and soil cement houses sustained temperature of less than 32°C
• Heat radiation coming from walls and roof accounts for 40% of indoor temperature
• Radiation of roof sheets is a key factor in discomfort

Initial Observations
• Ventilation accounts for 60% of indoor temperature
• Heat Index
• Natural lighting – 5 houses of the 12 failed in this test
