Microclimate Analysis and Site Design
It is essential from an energy conscious standpoint to understand that the climate of a region can be modified on a small scale within each site. If buildings are to relate properly to their environment they must be designed for the site and climate in which they exist.
|
Investigative Strategy |
Site should be carefully analyzed and characterized before specific design decisions are made on building orientation, shape and location.
