Along with the previously mentioned recommendations, utilising both double glazed window finishes, internal shading, and outdoor shading will positively
impact the overall peak cooling load of . Further implications of this project involve the cost to secure mechanical awnings, the
quality of the indoor blinds. On a larger scale, an alternative is to use other building materials within the fabrication of the building as the heat gain through this
element is so high, although that is not realistic.
