title = "Characterization of summer thermal behaviour of {"}class a{"} office buildings in santiago, chile.",
abstract = "This paper is part of an ongoing research related with the study of energy performance of {"}class A{"} office buildings constructed in Santiago in the last decade. The work presented is the selection of cases to be studied, considering shape and fa{\c c}ade parameters, and the characterization of the thermal behaviour registered in summer season. Summer is the most critical season in Santiago because of solar radiation, that is why is critical to have real data to evaluate the situation. The characterization presented show that there are no design criteria applied to ensure an adequate energy performance of {"}class A{"} buildings in Santiago.",
