Thermal performance of civil structure has turned out to be a demanding application in civil engineering and architecture. Thermal comfort (heating, ventilation, air cooling, airtightness, fabric performance) in buildings keeps the occupants energetic and positive. The study's objective is to maintain residents' comfort levels in their homes in the elimination of heat and humidity. Therefore, findings indicate that it is necessary to design a structure according to thermal comfort, decrease in carbon emission, air flows, electricity control, fuel, etc. This article provides detailed information about civil engineering structures' excellent and bad thermal performance, including buildings like residential, commercial, and educational institutions. This article provides an incisive assessment of the thermal performance, thermal comfort, thermal resistance, and thermal sensation of residential, commercial, and educational structures. The article contains in-depth information as well as case studies on how to improve indoor air quality and energy efficiency. Additionally, the topic of building energy consumption is discussed. The use of thermal performance of various building in various climatic circumstances has been discussed extensively in the works provided. A building's thermal performance determines how quickly heat enters the building and how quickly it is warmed. Heat travels faster through a poorly performing building, and the interior temperature is ultimately dependent on external temperature and climate changes. The thermal performance of different types of buildings such as residential, commercial, and educational buildings was analyzed in this study.
