Vertical Greening Wall as Sustainable Approach

To overcome the excessive heat in tropical climate countries during the day, the types of skin or facade play a vital role in regulating the temperature and the amount of heat transmission in a building. This research was carried out to evaluate the percentage of temperature reduction of two building samples, one with “vertical greening” and one without. The result proved that the temperature reduction of the building with the green facade system is higher than the building without the green facade system. Therefore, it justifies that Vertical Greening Wall does act as an acceptable passive approach for sustainable design. 2398-4279
