Towards the Climate Adaptive Residential Buildings Design
Climate adaptability of residential buildings is critical for their energy efficiency. This paper investigates the operable design methods dealing with residential climate adaptability on the basis of the general design principle and the conceptual design theory. Particularly, the impacts of wind forces on the ventilation environment and sunshine on the lighting environment for residential buildings are explored by combining qualitative analysis and numerical simulation under the perspectives of master plan and individual design, respectively. The corresponding alternative operable design schemes are presented through case examples to make buildings more adaptive to local climate.
