Introduction
Passive survivability refers to the ability of a building to maintain livable conditions for its occupants in the event of a loss of power, heating, or cooling systems. With the increasing frequency of extreme weather events due to climate change, the concept of passive survivability has become increasingly important in ensuring the safety and well-being of building occupants.
In the context of campus buildings, which often house a large number of students, faculty, and staff, passive survivability is crucial in ensuring the continuity of academic activities and the protection of human life in emergency situations. This project aims to explore the concept of passive survivability in campus buildings, identify the challenges and opportunities in implementing passive survivability measures, and provide recommendations for improving the resilience of campus buildings.
