Aushim,
 
I would direct you to this website: http://www.hothumidsymposium.org/
 
Per my knowledge, you can access a lot of the past symposium proceedings
by visiting the following Texas A&M ESL web-link:

Maybe you will come across something that helps with your specific
project,
Best of luck!

Subject: [Bldg-sim] insulation hot humid climates


Dear all,
 
for a student project, we are studying the options for improving the
thermal comfort in a hospital located in Bangladesh. The aim is to use
as much cheap and local materials as possible.  
They currently use simple metal non-insulated constructions. We will go
there and build a extension to an existing hospital. The idea is to use
bricks for the walls, wooden doors and single glazing. However the roof
remains in metal. We have a small budget for improving the indoor
climate, however have no experience in insulation in these climates.
 
We would appreciate anyones help; references to reports, publications or
some usefull advice.
 
Kind regards,
 
Aushim
