13 Sun angles Opinion poll: Would you rather have your office window facing north, south, east, or west? What about your bedroom? Rules of Thumb
14 Sun angles Opinion poll: Would you rather have your office window facing north, south, east, or west? What about your bedroom? Would you rather have your outdoor swimming pool on the north, south, east, or west of your Boston apartment building? Rules of Thumb

22 External Shading Why is EXTERNAL shading so important? Rules of Thumb
23 Lighting Controls and Interior Design Rules of Thumb
24 Lighting Controls and Interior Design Interior light shelf photosensors zoning of electric lighting reflective colors low/translucent partitions Rules of Thumb
25 Some definitions Luminance Illuminance Rules of Thumb
26 Some definitions Luminance Units: candela/m 2 (SI), candela/ft 2 (IP) (1 candela/ft 2 = about 11 candela/m 2 )* Illuminance Units: lux (SI), footcandles (IP) (1 fc = about 11 lux)* *Use a conversion factor of 10 today, for convenience. Rules of Thumb
27 Falsecolor Luminance Image from Radiance Rules of Thumb
28 Illuminance Image from Ecotect (calculations performed in Radiance) Rules of Thumb
29 What are some typical light levels? Office: Classroom: Parking lot at night: Overcast day outside: Sunny day outside: Rules of Thumb
30 What are some typical light levels? Office: 50 fc, 500 lux Classroom: 30 fc, 300 lux Parking lot at night: 1 fc, 10 lux Overcast day outside: 1500 fc, 15,000 lux Sunny day outside: 8000 fc, 80,000 lux Rules of Thumb
31 Illuminance meter $60 to $500 +/- Rules of Thumb
32 Glare direct glare discomfort glare - physical discomfort disability glare reduced visual performance indirect glare veiling reflections Rules of Thumb
33 Maximum Recommended Brightness Ratios for Indoor Lighting 1 Ratio Areas Example 3:1 Task to immediate surroundings 5:1 Task to general surroundings 10:1 Task to remote surroundings 20:1 Light source to large adjacent area 1 From Heating, Cooling, Lighting, Lechner 2009 Book to desk top Book to nearby partitions Book to remote wall Window to adjacent wall Rules of Thumb

Rules of Thumb
35 A Glare Study Classroom renderings from Radiance Rules of Thumb
36 A Study of Contrast Ratios in a Daylit Space Rules of Thumb
37 A Study of Contrast Ratios in a Daylit Space Rules of Thumb
38 Daylight Penetration X How far can daylight penetrate into a space? Rules of Thumb
39 Daylight Penetration 1 In a sidelit space with a standard window and venetian blinds, the depth of the daylit area usually X lies between 1.5 and 2 time the window-headheight. If a space does not require the use of a shading device the ratio can increase up to X 2 X 2.5 X 1 From Christoph Reinhart, Harvard Graduate School of Design 2009 Rules of Thumb

41 Daylighting Metrics Daylighting Buildings Nexus November 12, 2009
42 Daylight Factor (DF) Ratio of Outside Illuminance to Inside Illuminance DF = 100 * Ein / Eext From: Daylighting Metrics
43 Daylight Factor (DF) Widely used metric Easy to understand 2% or 5% DF are 2 common thresholds for daylighting Limitations: Overcast sky only!!! More is not always better Daylighting Metrics
44 Daylight Factor Image in Ecotect (Calculations Performed in Radiance) Daylighting Metrics
45 Dynamic Climate Responsive Daylight Metrics Consider daylight over a period of time, such as a year Use actual occupied hours Use actual climate conditions TMY weather files Daylighting Metrics
46 Daylight Autonomy (DA) Percentage of working hours when a minimum work plane illuminance (example, 300 lux or 28 fc) is maintained by daylight alone Daylighting Metrics
47 Useful Daylight Illuminance (UDI) Divides working hours into three bins: % < 100 lux (insufficient daylight) % between 100 lux (9.2 fc) and 2000 lux (186 fc) (useful daylight) % > 2000 lux (186 fc) (too much daylight) Daylighting Metrics
48 A Case Study Using Daylighting Metrics Daylighting Buildings Nexus November 12, 2009
49 Case Study Academic Building in Northern Kentucky West-facing Laboratories South-facing Classrooms East-facing Offices Comparing Design Alternatives for Each Case Study Using Daylight Metrics
50 Case Study Variant A: No Shade Same as E but without sun shelf. Variant B: Different Glass 60% visible transmittance rather than 72% Variant C: Horizontal Louvers 6 deep louvers at 6 O.C. for portion of windows above 7 A B C D E Variant D: Interior/Exterior Shelf 24 exterior shelf plus 36 interior shelf at 10 Variant E: As Designed 3 or 7 sill, 12-6 head, 24 deep exterior sun shelf at 10 Case Study Using Daylight Metrics
51 Case Study: Daylight Autonomy (DA) Here all the variants show that there is plenty of daylight in the space. A B C D Case Study Using Daylight Metrics E
52 Case Study: Useful Daylight Index (UDI) The UDI for all 5 variants indicates that glare control near the windows is a concern. Variant B shows that glass with less visible transmittance is actually beneficial from a daylighting perspective. This would allow for a lower solar heat gain coefficient, which would be beneficial from an energy stand-point as well. A B C D Case Study Using Daylight Metrics E
53 Case Study: Direct Shading Studies South-Facing Classroom: June 21, noon South-Facing Classroom: Dec 21, noon The louvers of variant C and the deep lightshelf of variant D help control glare; however, interior blinds will be needed during low sun-angles for each of the current variants. South-Facing Classroom: March 21, noon Case Study Using Daylight Metrics
54 Case Study: Conclusions The classroom receives plenty of daylight. If the window sizes could be reduced it would likely be beneficial from an energy stand-point as well as cost. The lower glazing provides the least lighting benefit but the best view. Use photo-controlled dimmers throughout the space. Zone perimeter space separately if possible. A glass that provides more shade is recommended for this space. Consider 0.6 visible transmittance or higher and 0.35 shading coefficient or lower (instead of 0.7 and 0.43 respectively.) Add an interior sun shelf if possible or consider horizontal louvers. Provide as much depth as feasible for the shading devices. Case Study Using Daylight Metrics

71 Option 1 Simulation To qualify as daylit, space must meet a minimum of 25 fc and max of 500 fc on September 21 at 9am and 3pm under clear skies Automated shades exempt you from the maximum illuminance limitations Daylighting and LEED
72 Option 2 Prescriptive To qualify as daylit, the visible light transmittance (VLT) times the window-to-floor area ratio (WFR) must be between and And the space must meet this ceiling height requirement < VLT X WFR < Daylighting and LEED
73 Option 2 Prescriptive > VLT X WFR < Daylighting and LEED
74 Option 3 Measurement To qualify as daylit, space must meet a minimum of 25 fc measured on a 10 foot grid Daylighting and LEED
