The document discusses research into passive design strategies for thermal comfort at PJ Trade Centre. It examines the effectiveness of shading devices, concrete vent blocks, and building orientation. Regarding shading devices, trees and vent blocks provide effective shading while allowing ventilation. Vent blocks improve indoor comfort and air flow. The building's orientation and materials also contribute to cooling and comfort through shading and heat absorption. Passive strategies like these provide natural ventilation and achieve thermal comfort similar to traditional Malay houses.
