| Abstract: | Observations increasingly point to global warming and other changes in the climate system. Climate change will entail new conditions for the Nigerian construction industry, and knowledge about potential impacts on the built environment will be of utmost importance in the years to come. The prospect of a very harsh climate in Nigeria means that we must pay more attention to the design, construction and geographical localization of buildings and be more aware of the climatic impact they will have to endure. Hence, there is a clear need to further develop our knowledge, methods, tools and solutions in principal concerning the planning and design of buildings in severe climates, to ensure a reliable building stock in the future |
