Abstract:
Sun orientation plays a significant role in architectural design. Concerning this, the sun-path diagram is a tool for developing more knowledge to improve the quality of building design. For achieving good and thermally comfortable building design, the sun shading device is essential to work. Therefore, this study performs an evaluation of the shading device in tropics utilising the sun-path diagram. This study evaluates the horizontal, vertical and louvre shadings on eight wind directions in Banda Aceh as a case study in tropics by adopting shadow angle protractor for superimposing the vertical (VSA) and horizontal shading angle (HSA) on the stereographic sun-path diagram to indicate the shadow and daylighting time. The result of this study proposes the suitable type of shading and the acceptable depth of horizontal shading dimensions for all of the orientations of the wind directions.

Abstract:
European Cities are strongly affected by the Urban Heat Island effect and Climate change impacts in recent and future summer periods. As such, the integration of passive cooling strategies is of increasing importance for the overall AEC (Architecture-Engineering-Construction) domain. Amongst other strategies, one of the most prominent strategies is the timely deployment of shading devices. While the shading device constructions connected to the inside, interstitial position or exterior of transparent building envelope components is thus an important part of the building, little change can be observed in the principal design and technology of such shading elements. Moreover, target conflicts between shading device deployment and architectural appearance can be observed in European Cities. For instance, the ensemble protection of the Vienna City morphology was - for a long time - considered to be more important than potent shading devices.The present contribution presents the approach of an effort toward highly-esthetical, functional shading devices that provide - despite their architectural-design approach - a high degree of shading performance. Together with the window-building industry, four different shading device designs have been designed, developed and virtually tested. The design process was guided by critical reviews by domain experts and performance simulation efforts. We present the genesis of the four designs and their performance implications as a proof of concept that effective shading systems can be understood as part of the esthetics of a building and practical passive cooling device at the same time.

Abstract:
Due to global warming caused by carbon dioxide emissions, for the last decade or longer, there has been a strong focus on reducing energy consumption. Among the many technologies, old and new, available for this purpose, one is a shading device, which is required in a hot and humid climates to protect building interiors from solar radiation that can penetrate the building, increasing the energy demand for the cooling load. Such shades are well-known and have been used widely since the dawn of the modern architectural era. In Phnom Penh, there are different kinds of shading devices in modernist architecture that demonstrate creativity in the shading of façades. To maximize their effectiveness in contributing to the fight against global warming, it is necessary to study their fundamental shadowing behaviors so that new technology can be developed and applied to today’s buildings. 
 This study aims to explore the shading types in modern architecture in Phnom Penh, and evaluate different aspects of these shading devices in terms of shadow performance by using an extension tool in Sketch-UP, Shadow Projector V.7 by TIG. 
 The results show that shading devices on modern buildings in Phnom Penh are defined by a deep overhang, and horizontal louvers hung from the overhang. Vertical fins, slanted fins, and egg-crate patterns are also used on the façades. According to the evaluation results, egg-crate provided the best shading performance among all shading cases and orientations studied. It was also found that a horizontal louver hung from the overhang can increase shading performance by 20% in all directions, and that it is more efficient than vertical fins for East, West, SE, and SW orientations. Moreover, the overhang is the most efficient in north-facing façades. Vertical fin types, on the other hand, are unreliable for East, West, SE, and SW orientations. The vertical slanted fin type is also unreliable in any orientation or season due to the slanted position and the sun's travel path. 
 The results of this study will help designers optimize the shadowing behavior of shading devices, particularly with respect to building orientation. The research findings highlight the fundamentals, which can be enhanced future studies that focus on compatibility assessment of shading devices used in new-era buildings.

Abstract:
The article presents the analysis of the basic principles of work of traditional and innovative solar protecting devices which besides their primary function contribute to reducing energy consumption. The examples of modern worldwide experience of use of solar protective elements for building’s façades are given. In the first part of this article, it was looked at the modern architectural structures described in literature. The second part is dedicated to a historical research about traditional solar protective elements known to mankind from the old times of its existence. In conclusion the possible methods of simultaneous minimization of heat losses and expenses are specified. Variants of further of scientific and practical research and projects in this field are presented. The danger of excessive ultraviolet radiation towards people is already considered by the architects while implementing all the necessary means of protection in the project and is reflected in solar protected façades design. These shadowing devices directly influence external building look and are an important part of façade design. Apart from that, more than one third of world energy consumption comes from the building sector. Since modern architecture has a huge area of glazing a decent amount of sun radiation goes through the windows of tall buildings. This solar energy might be used for energy generating and consumption in the buildings. One of the most crucial problems of historical cities is the possible adaptation of architectural monuments to new realities, conditioning, laying of engineering networks or alternative energetic resources usage. Any intervention to historical buildings is to be made after a careful examination. New technical developments might either be damaging or beneficial. Learning about potential symbiosis creates a huge capability for engineering or architectural scientific research. The future of historical cities stands behind a so-called cyberantiquity. The issue of energy efficiency in architecture regardless its unequal distribution is worldwide. The natural resources and rational nature management problem undoubtedly found a response in architectural solutions and requires continuous technological development of building materials, structures, and their use in practice. The mentioned means and methods of protection against direct solar radiation are quite possible to implement in our country and especially in our city, Odessa. So, what can be done today? It is quite possible to integrate photovoltaic panels even in historical buildings, for example, together with façade marquises. A project like this requires detailed calculation, but it can become a promising direction in the renovation and restoration of urban heritage. Combining modern innovations with traditional sun protection products proven over the years can be especially effective. The main task of modern architecture in this direction is the search and development of techniques and methods of façade protection of buildings and apartments from the harmful effects of ultraviolet light and their further application in real life.

Abstract:
Abstract This essay is concerned with how architecture was imagined to mediate tropical climate in the interest of forming productive postcolonial national subjects. It charts a transition in approach from late colonial to postcolonial modernist architecture as it was exemplified in the design of the University of Ife campus in Nigeria in the 1960s by an Israeli team led by Arieh Sharon in collaboration with the Department of Landscape Architecture at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. Sharon's team formed an alternative to the postwar predominance of sun-shading devices, specifically as the British colonial architects Maxwell Fry and Jane Drew employed them in their design of the neighboring University College Ibadan campus. The essay considers the midcentury discourse on sun-shading devices in relation to the contemporaneous theory of “human capital” and demonstrates how this discourse drew from the eighteenth-century notion of architectural “character,” which links the productive capacities of different races with architectural representation.

<strong>Abstract:</strong> As the global climate continues to warm, cities face the challenge of higher energy consumption for cooling purposes. One of the most effective and sustainable strategies to reduce this energy use is shading building roofs. This research paper explores different techniques used for shading roofs, including cool roofs, green roofs, and architectural shading. These techniques not only reduce the amount of energy needed to cool buildings but also mitigate the urban heat island (UHI) effect, lower air conditioning costs, and improve thermal comfort. The findings indicate that roof shading is a cost-effective strategy with numerous environmental and economic benefits. <strong>Keywords:</strong> shading building roofs, architectural shading, global climate, economic benefits. <strong>Title:</strong> The Effect of Shading Building Roofs on Energy Use in Cooling Buildings <strong>Author:</strong> Mohammad F.

Abstract:
Building external sun-shading is an important building energy efficiency measure in hot-humid areas. Integrated photovoltaic sun shading, which is of energy saving as well as power production, is one method with great potential for sustainable development of building. This paper extends the external sun-shading modules design and explores the BIPV design possibilities in the area by discussing the combined building skin strategy in hot-humid areas, photovoltaic external sun-shading modules layout and the micro-structure technical analysis. The model is optimized and the specific application in construction is determined through the software simulation of solar radiation shading, indoor illumination effects and photovoltaic shading .The reasonable combination of photovoltaic sun-shading modules and the battery arrangement with different light transmission rate enrich the possibility of the building skin space in architectural heat shielding and aesthetic design.

Abstract:
The dilemma of keeping the daylight quality and view to the outside or protecting our eyes from disturbing glare by covering the window is a moment that probably everyone has experienced in their life. Having access to daylight and enjoying the view to the outside when there is not visual comfort has been a problematic issue related to the window in space. Shading devices are designed in different shapes and forms to control glare and also energy consumption inside the space. Using shading covers part of the window and it affects the light quality and view to the outside and can change our perception from architectural space.In this thesis, the main question is how can we protect the indoor space from discomfort glare without covering the whole part of the window by curtain, blinds or shading devices in order to keep daylight quality and view to the outside.Glare is a phenomenon that is related to the viewpoint of observers and in order to study the glare metrics, the data from 140 viewpoints of the observer in 20 different locations in one simulated room were analyzed based on three main factors:1- Glare Metrics2- Light Quality3- ViewThe 20 selected patterns were simulated in [Rhino /Grasshopper/ Diva] software to analyze the glare and daylight metrics in Solstices and Equinoxes. Also, in order to define a parameter for view, one questionnaire was used and the responses from 40 participants were collected and all of the data were evaluated by mathematics and statistics methods.The final aim of the study is to introduce some simple principles for patterns of shadings to provide better-daylit environment and view to the outside with most visual comfort conditions for the user inside the space.

Designing architecture is related to producing vast amounts of information based on constraints, experience or common sense, and at the same time, those designs are assisted by specialized software, but, are the results of those processes giving you advantage or are they leading you in the wrong way? For example, should you include shading elements or less glazing? Should you change the shape of the building or improve envelope specifications? This research is a start to understand how to approach to design problems related to solar geometry, recognize which variables are worth modifying, reduce potential of error when iterating, and take truly advantage of the output delivered by modeling tools.<br>Master of Architecture

Abstract:
Glass facades building, especially offices, always need shading devices to guarantee occupant's well-being and comfort. However, shading devices are often composed of shutters or fabric tents which creates dark interiors and do not allow access to view out. Moreover, they ruin the aesthetical appearance of glass facades. The study aims to research and propose an alternative shading system for glass facades building which can prevent from glare in the interior spaces as well as respecting the continuity of a glass facade from an exterior point of view. Research upon materials that can be integrated into glass has been carried and Ceramic ink digital printing has been found as the right technique to ensure both a functional and aesthetical value. The material today has been used mainly for decorative functions. The patterns and the colors of the shading device proposed with ceramic and digital ink printing have been tested in Deloitte Building in Copenhagen with both 3D digital models and an online survey investigating comfort preferences.

Abstract:
The use of vegetation to block shortwave radiation can reduce cooling loads in hot climates. From July 22nd, 1989 to October 7, 1989, this study, using shade cloth to simulate vegetative canopies, compared the electricity used for air conditioning between quarter-scale models. The treatments were: (1) canopies of the same density on east, west, and/or south walls, (2) wall canopies versus roof canopies of the same density, (3) wall canopies of different densities, and (4) roof canopies of different densities. Although the savings in electricity in any treatment was usually less than 11%, the results showed: dense canopies gave better savings than medium canopies, which, in turn, gave better savings than the least dense canopies; wall canopies gave better results than a roof canopy; an east wall canopy gave better results than a west wall canopy; and shading all walls except the north gave better results than shading only the east and west wall.

Abstract:
The University of Arizona Main Campus is located in the city of Tucson, Arizona. A place that confronts high air temperatures and extreme solar radiation almost all year around. Currently, more than 38,000 students are enrolled as full-time facing the extreme climate conditions of heat. Thousands of students walk from one place to another experiencing uncomfortable walks causing them heat stress. Campus infrastructure is not capable to interact with the weather conditions of Tucson. The lack of shaded paths, materials with high emissivity of heat, nonnative vegetation, among other factors, make the walks unpleasant. This challenge affects people's health and consecutively the performance of cooling systems once the people enter to buildings overheated. Outdoor human thermal comfort in arid and desert areas is a relevant topic that carries implications and benefits on people and buildings performance. The amount and intensity of activities within individuals affects the level of comfort.

Abstract:
This study determined winter and summer shading coefficients for six commonly used landscape trees in Tucson using a photographic dot-matrix method. Tree types were developed from this data reflecting canopy density, shape, and foliage periods, then applied to SPS and MICROPAS computer programs to model effects of tree shade on annual energy loads for three residential construction types. Statistical analysis showed pruning to have a significant effect for 5 of the 6 species tested. Significant differences were also found among species and within species due to seasonal effects in foliage density. Shading scenarios manipulated the number and location of tree types were modeled. Greatest net annual savings were from 3 African sumac trees located on the west side of a masonry house typical of the 1950s (121). Shade from tree species found to have significantly different shading coefficients (10%) did not substantially increase energy savings ($5-12).

Abstract:
Extensively illustrated with photographs and drawings, Living Architecture highlights the most exciting green roof and living wall projects in Australia and New Zealand within an international context.&#x0D; Cities around the world are becoming denser, with greater built form resulting in more hard surfaces and less green space, leaving little room for vegetation or habitat. One way of creating more natural environments within cities is to incorporate green roofs and walls in new buildings or to retrofit them in existing structures. This practice has long been established in Europe and elsewhere, and now Australia and New Zealand have begun to embrace it.&#x0D; The installation of green roofs and walls has many benefits, including the management of stormwater and improved water quality by retaining and filtering rainwater through the plants’ soil and root uptake zone; reducing the ‘urban heat island effect’ in cities; increasing real estate values around green roofs and reducing energy consumption within the interior space by shading, insulation and reducing noise level from outside; and providing biodiversity opportunities via a vertical link between the roof and the ground.&#x0D; This book will appeal to a wide range of readers, from students and practitioners of architecture, landscape architecture, urban planning and ecology, through to members of the community interested in how they can more effectively use the rooftops and walls of their homes or workplaces to increase green open space in the urban environment.

Abstract:
AbstractBuilding shading systems play an important role in controlling solar heat gains, which can mitigate the impact of climate change on indoor environment. Effectively reducing cooling demand in summer and heating demand in winter requests further development of seasonally regulated shading systems. The main problem is to find a way that consumes less energy while reaching better comfort, which demonstrates potential for conducting an extensive search to parametrize configuration of shading. This paper aims to investigate the effects of building shading systems on energy and thermal performance in different seasonal conditions through a parametric design method, using Baoshan station in Shanghai, China as a case study to establish a baseline model and test different shading components’ direction, depth, spacing, and tilt angle. The method explores a large solution space at the beginning of design, establishing a variety of approaches that can inform the architectural design team. The results showed that a proper passive shading system can reduce energy consumption by about 13% while thermal comfort meets ASHRAE 55 standards. This finding indicates the possibility of improving the indoor thermal comfort while lessening building energy consumption.

Abstract:
In the context of various scenarios of global climate change and the imminent threats posed by escalating global temperatures, architects and urban planners must reflect on the lessons to be learned from the established model of vernacular architecture in arid climates. When closely examined and comprehended accurately, vernacular architecture offers a repository of readily applicable strategies that can be expanded upon and implemented in contemporary construction. This paper focuses on the benefits derived from incorporating height-to-width ratio (H/W) in urban settings, window-to-wall ratios and shading mechanisms inferred from vernacular architecture into envelope design for contemporary residential development. It employs the hot-arid climate of Cairo City, Egypt, as a reference context for this research proposed study. The paper elaborates on the methodologies and processes utilized to transform principles of vernacular strategies into quantifiable benchmark. This is accomplished through the integration of environmental performance simulations, including thermal and daylight conditions, which informed the exploration of potential architectural solutions. The outcome is a characterization of design elements inherent in vernacular architecture, leading to design recommendations for contemporary residential buildings in hot and arid climates, with emphasis on window-to-wall ratios and shading mechanisms.

Abstract:
In the book American Building 2, James Marston Fitch recognizes architecture as an instrument capable of modulating energy flows responsible for the meso-environment atmosphere and subsequently requested the discipline of architecture judge buildings through their performance. These assertions published by Fitch in 1947 were not aimed at climate change or energy demands, but instead were concentrated on architectural accountability. The core lecture course Environment | Building | Systems [EBS] acknowledges Fitch’s request and posits the methods and techniques used to shape interior environmental conditions cannot be conceived in isolation, but, instead as a collective of interconnected decisions– a system thinking approach. Through a union of lectures, workshops, hands-on exercises and physical testing, the EBS course introduces students to the looming energy and environmental issues facing the discipline of architecture. Course content is delivered explicitly through the lens of energy, reframing investigations in architectural precedents, proposals and analysis not led by formal interests but through performative measures. Operating as a supporting course to the technical and integrated studios, design ideas are tested, interrogated, and analyzed as students are exposed to the successes and failures of their architectural strategies. The paper Performative Architecture: Outcome of Assumptions, will focus on the evolving curriculum within the EBS course; specifically two exercises employing physical testing and environmental metering– a Climate Walk and a Foam-Box-Model– linking atmospheric conditions with design decisions through quantifiable data of thermal modulation. Through a series of systematic iterations investigating color, shading elements, thermal mass and phase change materials students learn how to manipulate the temperature profile of the meso-environment through form and mate¬rial. The physical testing provides quantifiable empirical data to otherwise assumed outcomes of design decisions. The primary course objective is to provide emerging students methods and techniques to address the imminent pressures of climate change through performative architecture.

Abstract:
This paper presents new methodologies for the design of roof canopies for extreme desert climates based on per-formative aspects of vernacular architecture from the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. The research and design explorations have been undertaken within the context of an undergraduate, architectural design studio at American University of Sharjah. The research methodology for the studio included a survey and case studies of various traditional building types, technologies and materials to uncover design strategies. Lessons for climatic performance such as solar shading, natural ventilation and using thermal mass for cooling were important aspects of the precedent research, as were aspects of structural, material and aesthetic performance. In addition to a series of vernacular buildings, students were also asked to investigate a number of contemporary examples of architectural enclosures and roof systems. Students experimented with computational means of hybridizing concepts, technology and geometry from the two categories (vernacular and contemporary) into a prototypical envelope system. Through multiple, design exercises, the studio encouraged an iterative approach to design. The studio considered how parametric tools and or parametric thinking can be put to work to blend architectural forms to achieve canopies that perform in desirable ways and can adapt to different sites, structural spans and programmatic criteria. With the use of digital design tools and techniques, an experimental approach toward building design aims to create prototypes for a better performing building envelope.

Abstract:
There is a large number of control systems proposed either by lighting manufacturers or motor manufacturers for shading systems. In addition there are many other solutions proposed by specific manufacturers of Building Management Systems (BMS) or manufacturers of components to be installed in luminaires and switches, as well as in the electric lighting architecture (transformers, gateways to the internet, sensors, etc.). For many consumers -i.e.-the installer, the facility manager, or the final user (building occupant) – this forms a complex and dynamic market environment with high frequent changes, every year or even every month or day. In this report we aim to provide some basic strategic information, showing the status of the supply at the time this report was written (2019-2021). Although the market develops very fast, there are principles of controls which are rather independent of the progress of technology.
