WITHOUT PREDJUDICE -We had offices in Eastgate for several years and, in my opinion, the passive air cooling system so successful in the termitory did not work successfully in the Eastgate comlex. The main reason being, I think, was the ambient night temperature being stored by the structure was too high and when drawn through the building during the day for cooling(when there was ZESA power!!) didn’t really provide the plesant working environment temperature it was designed for. During the winter months the offices were like ice boxes due to the dense nature of the structure
Just an opinion when implementing nature’s successes into our world
