Natural Ventilation in High-Rise Office Buildings

An output of the CTBUH Sustainability Working Group, this guide sets out recommendations for every phase of planning, construction, and operation of natural ventilation systems in these buildings, including local climatic factors that need to be taken into account, how to plan for seasonal variations in weather, and the risks in adopting different implementation strategies. All of the recommendations are based on analysis of the research findings from richly illustrated international case studies.
