| Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to analyze the understanding of the building designers and construction engineers about stack effect. Even though lots of studies about the problems caused by stack effect have been reported, the stack effect problems are still reported. The countermeasures for stack effect are determined by the building designer and construction engineer in the planning phase and construction phase. However, there are still differences over the selection of the countermeasures between the design team and construction team, which can result in an incomplete countermeasures for stack effect. In this study, the recognitions of the designer and construction engineer for stack effect were analyzed by the questionnaire survey. The differences of recognition for stack effect between the two were analyzed in this paper. This result can be used for determining the countermeasures for stack effect in effect. |
