Abstract
Technology plays an important role in building sustainability development,
such that it is being used to extract natural resources, modify them for human
purposes, and adapt them to man main requirements. This research presents the
methods to deal with the limited resources in an efficient approach. Creating
comfort indoor spaces is considered to be the main target that architects is
trying to achieve. In summer times, the internal space overheating is the main
problem which should be avoided. Conventional cooling systems have been
widely used for providing comfort indoor spaces, but they have many health
side effects besides they need huge construction costs as well as their high
running costs. Alternative passive cooling techniques have proved their
effectiveness for supplying healthy and comfort indoor spaces. They have also
the potential to reduce construction and running costs. This research provides
the guidance and criteria for designing sustainable buildings to be totally or
partially naturally cooled. Moreover, various innovative natural cooling
techniques, their principles, and applications in modem buildings are reviewed
in this research. Since it is important for man to live and work in a healthy
environment, then this research will study the effectiveness of applying various
passive cooling systems in sustainable office buildings with considering their
potential advantages.
