Abstract

A new Handbook was developed, addressed to builders and designers who have little or no information about the concepts involved in environmentally conscious design and low energy consumption building strategies. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to present the structure of this Handbook, which was written in an easy language, in order to be well understood by these professionals, and is devoted fundamentally to helping avoid misunderstandings and the consequent mistakes they usually make. The context of the Handbook is the tropical climate and the architectural framework for commercial and residential middle class buildings. The Handbook structure follows the steps of the architectural design processes in the designer’s mind, making insertions where a bioclimatic choice is required, all aimed at helping decision making and strategies for actions. Also, it gives information about procedures, technical tables and figures, architectural elements and examples of building solutions with good thermal and visual comfort performance. The Handbook closes with suggestions for the integration of the subjects discussed which certainly will produce a better quality environmentally conscious architectural design.
