What will I learn?
This course teaches how to integrate climate analysis, building orientation, and structural systems to reduce cooling loads and enhance comfort. You will learn to design slabs, roofs, columns, beams, and façades that promote daylight, cross ventilation, night cooling, and minimise thermal bridges, using simple rules of thumb, practical details, and real-world examples for immediate application.
