Σύνοψη

This Project deals with the passive systems used in Traditional and Modern Cypriot architecture. For this purpose a study of the human thermal comfort and the weather conditions in Cyprus was made.
Then a general study of passive systems that can be used in building to achieve the required conditions for human thermal comfort was made.
Analysis of passive systems used in Cypriot Traditional
architecture was then carried out. In order to facilitate
this analysis cypriot traditional houses are classified in
three main categories:
The houses built on plains
The houses built on hills, and
The houses built on mountains.
At last the analysis of passive systems used in modern Cypriot architecture was carried out.
