DESIGN CONDITIONS JUSTIFICATIONS

FOR INTERIOR

Design weather parameter: the value of summer dry-bulb temp. used is for DBT Prioritization/
frequency 1% (Table 4.1 in MEW/R-6/2014 page 12), while the value of summer wet-bulb temp. is
related to WBT Prioritization/ frequency 2.5%.

Daily Range is taken as 13.3 °C (24 °F) (Table 4.3 in MEW/R-6/2014 page 12),

This project is located in the interior zone so selecting WBT Prioritization/ frequency 1% may add
unnecessary capacities and selecting Prioritization/ frequency 5 %, vice versa. Therefore, we have
selected the medium range 2.5 %. This is also recommended practice as per previous MEW codes.

FOR COSTAL

Design weather parameter: the value of summer dry-bulb temp. used is for DBT Prioritization/
frequency 1% (Table 4.2 in MEW/R-6/2014 page 12), while the value of summer wet-bulb temp. is
related to WBT Prioritization/ frequency 2.5%.

Daily Range is taken as 13.3 °C (24 °F) (Table 4.3 in MEW/R-6/2014 page 12),

Therefore, we have selected 1% for DBT to keep higher range while the medium range 2.5 % for
WBT. This is also recommended practice as per previous MEW codes.

This project is located in the Coastal zone so selecting WBT Prioritization/ frequency 1% may add
unnecessary capacities and selecting Prioritization/ frequency 5 %, vice versa.
