What will I learn?
This course demonstrates how to integrate climate analysis, building orientation, and structural systems to minimise cooling loads and boost comfort. Participants will learn to create slabs, roofs, columns, beams, and façades that promote daylighting, cross-ventilation, night cooling, and minimised thermal bridges, through straightforward rules of thumb, practical details, and real-world examples ready for immediate use.
