    This presentation discusses good and bad design techniques for commercial buildings in Al Khobar with regards to climate. Some good techniques highlighted include creating passages for airflow, using overhangs to block sun rays, and orienting buildings to block sun all year round. One bad technique discussed is missing elements in high-rise buildings that could reduce air resistance and turbulence, such as tapering, cross-cutting, or hollow elements. The presentation concludes by emphasizing the importance of interesting and functional design features in all commercial buildings.

    INTRODUCTION
    In this presentation I will be
    highlighting and showcasing some of
    the good and bad design techniques and
    considerations in commercial building

    This building, I believe is


    missing an essential
    element that would’ve
    reduced cost of
    construction while adding
    a better design feature.
    That is by using one of 3
    ways to reduce air
    resistance and turbulence
    in high rise buildings
    which include : 1-
    tapering 2- cross cutting
    3- hollow element
    GREAT DESIGN TECHNIQUES
    13

    In this building I have noticed a


    strong glare of sun rays directly at
    the window. Therefore, the
    restaurant owners installed curtains
    which block it, but the
    unfortunately the customers are
    missing the beautiful view due to
    that slight imperfection. I suggest
    adding a vertical element that is
    porous which doesn’t choke the
    buildings yet still allows for valid
    natural light to enter.

    SUMMARY
    I believe there are many beautiful designs in the city, but I would like to
    see more interesting and functional design features implemented on all
    commercial buildings.
