Negeri Sembilan Malay House Thermal Performance Evaluation towards Sustainable Practice
Traditional Malay House has practices climatic design strategies and getting extinct due to urban development. Consequently, generated urban heat island, causing increased energy consumption for cooling purposes. Therefore, a modern house has an inefficient passive thermal design. Aim: To assess the thermal performance of Negeri Sembilan traditional Malay house towards sustainable practice in the tropical environment. Findings: house openings allow cross-ventilation, less strategic house orientation towards the environmental condition and roofing materials contributes discomfort indoor environment, reaching 35ºC during peak hour. This research focuses on improving construction technology for modern architecture to provide a functional indoor environment in a tropical climate.
