Reduction in thermal loading of a building by high-albedo roof materials
In most of the developed countries, the temperature of urban area is several degrees higher compared to its surrounding suburban and urban areas, this phenomenon is called the Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect. As Singapore is rapidly developed and urbanized, the UHI effect is expected to be worsening...
