Abstract

Thermal comfort is a major factor for a building's design, and is associated to room temperature conditions. Thermal comfort depends on climatic variables and several individual / subjective factors such as clothing, acclimatization, age, gender, level of health, and others. Measurements of thermal comfort made via Meteoblue and SunHour software at the Rifain Digital Printing location provide data including temperature, humidity, sun exposure and wind speed. The data is then synthesized using CBE Thermal Comfort, a software that detects conformity to thermal comfort standards in a room. The results of measurement and data synthesis indicated that the building requires a cooling temperature of 5.2 ° C. From these results, it can be said that the thermal comfort of Rifain Digital Printing is not optimal. Improvements are needed to the existing thermal conditions. One of the efforts to optimize thermal comfort is the use of vegetation and water (Talarosha, 2005). Based on synthesis result obtained through research and data processing through literature studies, we came up with a solution, namely a vertical garden with a water wall system design as an effort to overcome the problem of thermal comfort in the Rifain Digital Printing building. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
