Overview

Experimental analysis compares thermal comfort in cavity and non-cavity building envelopes, indicating influences on indoor environmental quality.

Key Points

  • This study revealed that cavity and non-cavity building envelopes significantly impact indoor environmental parameters.
  • External factors like temperature and humidity affect the performance of the building envelope in tropical climates.
  • Structural equation modeling and regression techniques were used to analyze the relationship between outdoor and indoor environmental quality.
  • Building codes should adapt to address the effects of external conditions on indoor environmental quality for better health outcomes.
