Synopsis

Designed to fill the need of architects and students for a text on the heating, cooling and lighting of buildings which does not assume a great deal of technical knowledge, this text is written with the designer's decision-making needs in mind. Aimed both at the architect, interior designer and student market, the book covers such topics as thermal comfort, mechanical heating and cooling systems, climate, solar heating and cooling, shading, site planning, daylight and artificial lighting and conservation, using generous graphs, photographs and sketches. The author makes liberal use of case studies, and includes a discussion on techniques of energy-conscious design. Appendices provide sun path diagrams and solar site evaluation tools, and a listing of appropriate microcomputer software.
