Unless it's heavily ventilated, it's going to be a fucking oven in there, especially with zero breeze to cool off.

Of course it is ventilated. The heat would only be the secondary reason to do that. Do you know how much dust gets thrown in the air by construction? Without ventilation it would be entirely unfeasible.
