The impact of the outdoor design and architectural dimension of Masjid Shas towards microclimate

Physical development has significant effect on the microclimate. Understanding this relationship may contribute towards design improvement. For the context of hot-humid regions, not much research is being done on the impact of outdoor design and its microclimate on the indoor microclimate of a masji...
