The predicted effect of preservation scenarios on indoor overheating for the renovation of heritage-listed apartment-style lilong houses in Shanghai under climate change

open access: yesBuilt Heritage
An increase in ambient air temperature due to climate change can adversely affect indoor thermal conditions, particularly in heritage-listed dwellings, as renovation efforts may be limited by preservation constraints, potentially leading to indoor ...
