Question

Bedrooms located under a sloping roof must necessarily be low and hot.

(a) True

(b) False

This question was posed to me in an international level competition.

This key question is from Arrangements of Rooms, Position and Purposes topic in section Planning of Building and Colony of Civil Engineering Drawing

Answer 1

Correct answer is (b) False

Easiest explanation: Some bedrooms so located have been stuffy does not argue that all bedrooms need to be so; it implies rather that there has been no cross-ventilation or that the windows were placed so low as to leave a pocket of hot air confined near the ceiling.
