Abstract
Being located in the subtropical area at 24 degrees with north latitude, the NTCH building's cooling load is tremendous, necessitating extra consideration on energy saving designs. External and internal shading devices were designed followed by sensitivity analysis to select an optimal solution to the building facade where glass block, or curtain walls will be installed. A full-scale experimental investigation was conducted successfully to validate the design effectiveness and is discussed in this paper.
