Thermal Insulation of Residential Construction through the Study of Temperature Difference of Bricks
This study seeks to measure the temperature difference of 3 types of interlocking bricks and 2 types of conventional bricks, all which are available in Malaysian market. The study aims to assist Malaysia’s residential construction dilemma in masonry. This is done by constructing 5 models using diffe...
