Forum Bauinformatik, fbi 2024: 473-480https://hdl.handle.net/11420/49593Future weather predictions indicate more frequent and intense heatwaves, demanding that buildings ensure adequate comfort during those events. Current research focuses on climate adaptation and estimating thermal comfort with rising temperatures. This study investigates heatwaveresilient architecture, particularly where air conditioning is unavailable and cooling relies on passive strategies. Numerous simulations were conducted on a simplified building model using future-updated weather data and a parametric approach. This method enabled a detailed exploration of the effects of specific parameters (One-at-a-time Sensitivity Analysis) on thermal comfort during early design stages. The results suggest that buildings without mechanical air conditioning will struggle to maintain thermal comfort. The most influential parameters were window shading style, solar heat gain coefficient, and window-to-wall ratio. The main contribution of this study is developing a highly applicable model for a medium-sized residential building and a sensitivity analysis of thermal comfort during heatwaves, considering key geometric and physical parameters.enhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/design in early stagesheatwave resiliencesensitivity analysisthermal comfortTechnology::690: Building, ConstructionArts::720: ArchitectureTechnology::620: EngineeringConference Paper10.15480/882.1350110.15480/882.13501Conference Paper
