SUN ORIENTATION
o Rear facade of the market facing the sunset sun. o unwanted glare and heat directly facing the building. o Solution planting more tree to protect the building from glare and heat of sun.
MARKET
o Front facade of the market facing the rising sun. o The morning sun is good for humans.
Overall, the wind direction of Seberang Jaya area mostly from the Southwest(SW) side and it is depending on the condition of air either cool air or hot air.

Example:
Date: 26th Feb Time: 5.00 PM Direction: South West (SW) Air condition: Blowing cooler air
The table below shows the direction of wind that flow through Seberang Jaya area and this information is valid for the wind direction for the purposed site
The arrows show the wind direction on the site Date: 26th February Time: 5 pm Direction: SW(Southwest) to NE(Northeast) Air condition: Blowing hot air
WIND SPEED
WIND SPEED (SEBERANG JAYA AREA)
o Average wind speed in February = 9kph@5mph@5knots
o For the recent year, the maximum wind speed reach up till 39kph@24mph@21knots
o The chart below plots the average daily wind speed you can expect for any month. It also shows the maximum recorded sustained wind speed for each month.
DESIGN FACTOR
Wind Speed
In general, the average wind speed that flow at the Seberang Jaya Area is 24 mph/ 10.72 mps/ 21knots. It reach the comfor t zone where the most acceptable wind speed is 1 .5 mps and above. Considerati on on humidity level is a par t of factor in reaching a better comfor t level which must be between 30% to 65%. Yet, the humidity level on site is 74%. Table below shows the Beaufor ts Scales on wind speed.
Based on the Beaufor ts Scale table, it shows that the wind speed flowing through the Seberang Jaya Market site is fresh breeze where the wind are able to sway a tree.
This can be conclude where the wind speed flowed onto the site is at moderate speed where the wind is able to per form good ventilation in the market design. Besides, the wind speed can overcome the hot temperature during the af ternoon period by adding more trees as shading devices and create a relevant opening into the market design in order to gain better ventilation. Below are few concepts and suggestions on the market design by considering the factor of wind speed.
Allow day lighting enters the building partially Ventilation through open wall to open roof
no privacy issues with neighbours lightweight roofs is balanced with the appropriate overhang moveable roof(can be open and close) by a small motor rain and wind sensor triggers automatic closure in inclement weather
Courtyard
Bayan Baru Market Roof Foodcourt
DESIGN EXAMPLE
Wet and dry market Wind can flow through the opening(no enclosed wall)
TEMPERATURE
Temperature is a physical property of matter that quantitatively expresses the common notions of hot and cold.
In recent times the highest recorded temperature in February has been 36C that's 97F, with the lowest recorded temperature 21C, about 70F.
THE CHART BELOW PLOTS THE AVERAGE HIGH AND LOW TEMPERATURE FOR EACH MONTH OF THE YEAR. IT ALSO SHOWS THE MAXIMUM AND MINIMUM RECORDED TEMPERATURES .
HUMIDITY
Humidity is a term for the amount of water vapour in the air, and can refer to any one of several measurements of humidity.
HUMIDITY
Relative Humidity The average daily relative humidity for February is around 74%. Heat Index The Heat Index is a measure of how hot it feels when relative humidity is added to actual air temperature. From this a comfort level is calculated providing categories on how heat conditions might adversely af fect someone.
DESIGN SOLUTION
Base on the analysis we have provided a few solution to make sure the comfort level can be achieved. The temperature of the area is quite high, so here are a few suggestions. - Stack Ef fect - Cross Ventilation - Shading Device
DESIGN SOLUTION
DATA HUJAN
Proposed site
Seperti yang diketahui, kuantiti hujan pada sepanjang tahun adlah di antra 0-100 mm pada bacaan skala. Dengan itu, keluasan dan kedalaman longkang di kawasan tapak tidak perlu terlalu besar dan dalam. Longkang ini lebih banyak digunakan untuk menampung air yang digunakan oleh para pengguna di tapak tersebut seperti pembeli dan peniaga.
Keadaan tapak adalah panas dan lembab. Secara keseluruhanya, kawasan tapak sangat panas pada siang hari dan mendapat cahaya matahari sepenuhnya. Penggunaan skylight amat berfungsi skan tetapi, masalah kepanasan akan berlaku. Dengan itu, beberapa cadangan shading device dan skyligt disediakan.
Mengikut kajian yang dilakukan, konklusi yang dapat di buat adalah, penggunaan gutter adalah penting di kawasan ini. Namun begitu, material yang digunakan tidak perlu daripada bahan yang menampung beban yang kuat. Saiz juga tidak perlu terlalu besar.
