Produktbeschreibung

Thatch Roof Cooling examines the viability of thatch roofs as a sustainable, eco-friendly alternative for heat mitigation in building design. The book challenges the perception of thatch as merely a traditional material, instead positioning it as a practical solution for contemporary energy conservation. It explores the thermal performance of thatch, noting its low thermal conductivity and high thermal mass, which historically provided comfortable indoor environments without reliance on mechanical cooling.

The book systematically builds its argument by first introducing the fundamentals of heat transfer and the properties of thatch. It progresses through case studies of traditional structures, delves into the science behind thatch's insulative capabilities using thermal imaging and heat flux measurements, and explores modern adaptations addressing fire resistance and durability. It highlights the potential benefits of widespread thatch adoption, including reduced carbon footprint and rural economic development, framing thatch as a sustainable material relevant to architectural design and passive cooling.
