Natural ventilation in skillion roof!

Hamish Austin

Hey all, I need help deciding how to create a natural cross flow ventilation in a storage shed set in a coastal environment, I am planning on having the skillion sloping down towards the back of the shed, I need to keep a constant temperature within the shed, and was thinking a gap between my foundation walls made from concrete blocks and the zincalume roof at the top and bottom parts of the slope, the only problem is that I need it to be fairly weather proof seeing as it's right near a beach and that harsh coastal environment...any suggestions...il attach a rough drawing to clear some things up, hope it makes sense! Thanks!

The image attached is a very quick, rough drawing of the basic concept, I am wanting to capture the on shore coastal breeze through the structure naturally, is this possible with still keeping the building weather sealed ?

    So the beach (and beach breezes) is to the right of the building is that correct? Maybe dont rule out ventilation that is lower down than ceiling height - like louver windows allow

    The front of the roof, so the top part of the sloped roof is directly facing the beach, hence I thought it would be useful to catch it front on.

    Hi Hamish, which section is N and which is S, if you are talking even temps, what you should be considering is venting on the N or in this case highest point, but drawing in form the S -coolest. How does this fit with your layout.

    my understanding of how a skillion roof works is that it will actually move air the other way and vent on the high side. So you can build level walls and put a row of louvres above the wall on the high side for ventilation. You will need windows or vents on the low side too to bring the air in.

    Hamish. Is your goal natural ventilation or a stable temperature? The solutions could be wildly different. Also, where are you; FNQ or southern NSW or somewhere in between?
