Natural ventilation: good practice in the United Kingdom.

Summary

To convince client decision makers (facilities managers, property directors, etc.) and their professional advisers (architects and engineers), that natural ventilation can deliver both low energy performance and high occupant satisfaction, a document has been written that draws together the most compelling evidence: the example of successful precedents. The paper elaborates the technical basis for a pre-design check list provided in the document as a preliminary means to quantify summertime overheating risk, and so to try to steer designs for natural ventilation in the right direction.
