Sustainability, Thermal Comfort, CLTAbstract
Cross-laminated timber (CLT) Nusantara is a building model constructed to achieve the vision of a sustainable house for Indonesia. The integrated evaluation strategy of sustainable habitat systems suggests that the sustainability value can be increased through increased welfare in comfort aspect. Thermal comfort has not been measured in this building, but can be potentially improved. Therefore, this research aims to evaluate the sustainability value of CLT Nusantara building from the perspective of thermal comfort and the potential for enhancing the sustainability value of building design aspects. The adopted method used field measurements and simulation through an adaptive thermal comfort model. The results showed that the percentage of hours experiencing 'hot' conditions was more prevalent during operational hours. The design method exerted a significant influence on the augmentation of 'comfortable' hours. The addition of windows provided opportunities for air entry to increase 'comfortable' hours among the several designs applied in simulation. The shape and orientation of building had the potential to enhance 'comfortable' hours. CLT served as a building material based on the comparison applied in simulation.
