CLIMATIC STUDIES

SUN PATH

SUN PATH

Taman Botani Negara Shah Alam is located in Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia.

As Malaysia is located near the equator, it allows for the location to receive more sunshine.

Being close to the equator, the sun path or position does not shift much throughout the year.

On the average, Malaysia receives about 10 hours of sunshine per day. However, seasonal variations may influence the amount of sunshine received.

SUN ORIENTATION

Knowing the sun path and orientation of the site is vital to the design of the pavilion in order to control the direction and amount of sunlight entering the space.

The site receives sunlight at around 7.13 a.m. (annual average).

During the early months of the year, the sun rises above the equator nearer to the southern hemisphere.

During the mid months of the year, the sun rises above the equator nearer to the northern hemisphere.

TEMPERATURE

The chart above shows the annual average temperature recorded for Shah Alam, Selangor.

During the site visit, the temperature recorded was around 34°C.

The entire trail is directly exposed to sunlight as the trees are too short and sparse to provide shade.

Some areas which are sheltered from direct sunlight.

SHADOW CASTING

ShadedRelatively high tree density allowing for efficient shading from direct sunlight.

Semi-ShadedRelatively low tree density giving less shade to the highlighted areas.

ExposedFew to no trees leaving the areas extremely vulnerable to direct sunlight and heat

DIRECTION: Southwest WIND SPEED (APRIL-SEPT): 1-12 km/h

Strong wind can be felt throughout the entire trail as a result of the clear path the trail provides.

SELANGOR, SHAH ALAM SELANGOR, SHAH ALAM SELANGOR, SHAH ALAM SELANGOR, SHAH ALAM

DIRECTION: North-East WIND SPEED (OCT-MAR): 1-12 km/h

The site is not affected by this wind as it is surrounded with trees. Hence, most of the breeze comes from the south-west direction.SELANGOR, SHAH ALAM

SELANGOR, SHAH ALAM SELANGOR, SHAH ALAM SELANGOR, SHAH ALAM

The chart above shows the annual average precipitation and rainfall days recorded for Shah Alam, Selangor.

ANALYSIS

The average annual amount of precipitation has been recorded at around 8.3 inches. The most amount of precipitation occur during the last quarter of the year, with the highest amount of precipitation, 11 inches, in both October and

November respectively. The least amount of precipitation is observed during the middle of the year, with the amount of 5 inches of precipitation in the month of June.

Throughout the year, rain or drizzle falling is expected on average of about 18 days of the month. The most days of rainfall occur during the last quarter of the year, with 25 days of rainfall in the month of November. The least days of

rainfall is recorded in the month of February, with only 14 days.

HUMIDITY

The chart above shows the average Humidity in Shah Alam in the year 2015 and 2016

ANALYSIS

Malaysia has high humidity.The mean monthly relative humidity falls within 70 to 90%, varying from place to place and from month to month. For any specific area, the range of the mean monthly relative humidity varies from a minimum of

3% to a maximum of about 15%.

In Shah Alam, the minimum range of mean relative humidity varies from a low 77% in February to a high of only 87% in November. It is observed that in Shah Alam, the minimum relative humidity is normally found in the months of January

and February.The maximum is however generally found in the month of November.

MICROCLIMATE

12 3

3. Lake Zone

The bodies of water cool the local atmosphere during April-Sept as the wind blows from the direction of South-West

During hot times of still air,the bodies of water add to the humidity and heat in the atmosphere

2. Tropical Fruit Zone

Area is slopedDirection of the slope faces the west -More exposure to the evening sun which is relatively cooler than the morning sun

1. Cactus Zone

The lower density of trees and grassprovide relatively less shade and moistureto the surroundings - hotter atmosphere

Zones 1 & 2

The retaining wall of zone 1, concrete stairs of zone 2, along with the brick pavement and asphalt road found in both - absorb the sun’s heat and reradiate it to the ambient air causing the zones to be relatively hotter compared to zone 3

STRENGTHS:

Natural lighting is abundant as the sun path does not shift position throughout the year.

Some areas are sheltered with small trees to provide shade in the heat of the weather.

Strong wind can be felt throughout the site (from South-West region) as it is naturally ventilated.

Rain showers and drizzle occurs often hence the humidity level maintains above 80%. Water vapour traps heat, the earth’s surface is cooled during evaporation.

WEAKNESSES:

The temperature of the site for most part of the day is high due to the low density of trees

The site experiences high humidity as it is located near water bound and near the equator, therefore the site is warm throughout the day.

Home to countless insects (namely mosquitoes) which causes discomfort.

OPPORTUNITIES:Opportunity-Strengths (OS)

1. Some areas within site boundary are sheltered from the sun by smaller trees - natural shelter as an advantage - allow for nature-integrated pavilion design 2. Area within site boundary receives great amount of wind flow

- gives an opportunity for well ventilated design

Opportunity-Weaknesses (OW) 1. Most area within site boundary are exposed to direct sunlight, thus making the site receive maximum amount of sun

- creates opportunity to provide much needed shelter for users/visitors allow for interesting pavilion design that plays with natural lighting

THREATS:

1. Most of the area receives natural and direct sunlight during the daywithout a great amount of shade provided by the surrounding trees:

- May cause discomfort to the eyes and skin- Pavilion would require appropriate roofing (options in design become more restricted)

2. Mosquitoes are not uncommon in the area:

- Pavilion would require to be sealed off with walls/doors- Pavilion cannot be stayed in for too long if pavilion is open-aired (options in design become more restricted)
