During climatic analysis, methodological developments should be used that contribute to the scientific choice of architectural means of improving the environment.
Among them are the standards of the dwelling microclimate and the meteorological parameters of the environment, climatic zoning, the classification of weather types and operating modes in different weather, data on the effectiveness of architectural equipment during cooling and overheating, architectural and climatic classification of the living environment, experience of scientific justification for designing in different climatic zones.
The main thing in the analysis is the relationship between a person and the architecture of the dwelling. To identify favorable and adverse factors of the climatic environment, it is necessary to conduct a hygiene assessment of the climate, compare the climatic conditions of this item with the conditions optimal for humans, identify the measure of violations of the heat (as well as light or any other) comfort in natural environment. Normative hygiene data serves the methodological basis of such an analysis. Caring for a person in a living environment, the architect should not lose sight and other connections between climate and architecture – issues of strength, durability of structures, materials, etc. p.
Therefore, first of all, the characteristic, typical conditions of the climate, acting with the greatest duration, should be analyzed. Then it is necessary to identify the presence of short -term but sharp climatic effects, which can lead to discomfort or even violation of the safety of the architectural structure. In the first case, we are talking about climatic conditions that have the greatest repeatability (characteristic thermal background, seasons of the year), in the second case – about extreme climatic impacts (period of strong winds, absolute minimum or maximum temperatures, etc.).
