Making the building energy efficient and improving thermal comfort inside the buildingis drawing attention of the researchers due to the limited stock of conventionalresources. About 40-60% of energy in the form of electricity is consumed by thebuilding itself. About 43-45% energy can be saved by implementing the normssuggested by Energy Conservation Building Code (ECBC) during the construction of thebuilding. Present study investigate the effect of improving the building material on thesolar

It is shown that about 82% heat gain through the roof, 57%solar heat gain through window can be reduced by using energy efficient measures (EEM) and 25% fanger PMV can be improved. After comparison radiant floor cooling isfound to be best suited for the solar lab.
