Abstract
Seri Iskandar is known to have extremely hot weather throughout the year. On a hot day in Seri Iskandar, the brick walls absorb and hold more heat, increasing the temperature inside. To identify the issues related to brick wall to overcome the heat issues, the concept of auto-cooling system for the wall is proposed for implementation on campus. The concept of Hydroceramic Wall Insulation comes from the combination of hydrogel, ceramic, and stretching fabric. The term "hydrogel" refers to a crosslinked three-dimensional polymeric network structure that can absorb and hold large volumes of water. Since hydrogel has the potential to cool an area, it is used as an insulation for wall panels. The versatility of Hydroceramic Wall Insulation is wonderful as it could deal with all the stated issues and problems. The wall could cool itself when it is affected by heat by evaporating the hydrogels that has absorbed water from the pump system. High heat and humidity can cause heat-related sickness, such as heat cramps, heat exhaustion, and heat stroke. Heat illness can arise when the body''s ability to cool itself is compromised, or when there are insufficient quantities of fluid or salt in the body because of sweating or dehydration. Heat-related illnesses become more common as the combination of temperature and relative humidity rises.
