WWR OPTIMIZATION FOR VENTILATION AND ENVIRONMENTAL NOISE CONTROL OF TROPICAL DWELLING

open access: yesARSITEKTURA, 2018
<p class="Abstract"><em>In an urban environment, heat and noise are the most important factors affecting the environment in buildings. This study optimizes the WWR (Window to Wall Ratio) as a compromise of the ventilation design and noise control for the Javanese architecture which is the case study of Eco-tropical built environment.
