| Abstract | ||||
| Climatic data analysis aims at deciphering the different environmental factors that architects face when designing a building at a certain location. However, these factors can be magnified or diminished by other natural settings such as topography and surrounding landscape. In this work, the different environmental and natural factors affecting the city of Hurghada are analyzed and various design strategies are evaluated, with the aim of obtaining the most efficient design strategies for achieving thermal comfort. The resulting strategies can be used by architects and decision-makers when assessing the different building design options for future development projects in the city of Hurghada. | ||||
