Question 1 (a) Write four examples each for nonrenewable and renewable energy sources. (b)Name three primary greenhouse gases. Question 2: Pi Wind-borne debris during a hurricane resulted in window breach of a low rise building causing increase in internal pressure (see sketches above). Describe the impact of this on the building envelope windward wall, leeward wall, and roof. Draw sketches to illustrate. Question 3: (a) Find the altitude and azimuth of the sun in Memphis, Tennessee (assume 36° N latitude), on July 21 at 11 A.M. (b) Draw the sunbeams representing the sun at this time on a plan and section. Sample plan (with windows) is shown below. Draw section along sunbeam. (c) What is the required size of overhang to provide complete shade for south-facing window (vertical height from glazing sill to bottom of overhang is h=1.5 m).
