Abstract

Rapid urbanization in humid tropical climates has led to an increase in the construction of contemporary tall buildings due to population growth and land shortages, leading to an increasing number of tall building constructions in urban areas. However, these buildings face several challenges, such as climate, environmental impact, and excessive energy consumption. Integrating Yeang’s principles into tall buildings can overcome these challenges. This research explores the application of Yeang's principles to contemporary tall buildings in humid tropical climates, specifically considering sun path and wind rose projections. There are eight iconic contemporary tall buildings that were selected in humid tropical climates based on their public significance as case studies to analyze their building design and compare their implementation with Yeang's principles. Despite some buildings adhering to Yeang’s principles, there are several factors that influence the building’s design, leading to certain modifications. These adjustments impact the building’s form and structures. By looking at how design implementation compares to Yeang's principles, this study shows the challenges and opportunities of creating sustainable and adaptable tall buildings in humid tropical environments.
