7 1. Site Shading Masks Plotting a picture of the sun s path, and the landforms, buildings, trees and objects that block the sun. Sun Path Diagrams provide a very handy frame of reference for accessing horizon obstructions ARCH 3/431 Spring

8 Obstructions from the previous diagram as seen on a Sun path Diagram (polar, stereographic) Method A: Horizon Survey Find the Altitude and Azimuth of points along the horizon formed by trees, buildings and landforms and plot these on a Sun Path Diagram to make accurate predictions of solar access. ARCH 3/431 Spring

9 Azimuth = 30 o E Solar Transit Altitude = 8 o Method B: Fisheye Photography Fisheye images can see the entire sky vault and document the horizon in a single image. Overlaid on a Sun Path Diagram, accurate predictions of solar access can be made. ARCH 3/431 Spring

10 Vertical site elements span from the horizon toward the zenith ARCH 3/431 Spring

11 horizontal site elements follow profile angle contours ARCH 3/431 Spring

12 Take a fisheye photograph ARCH 3/431 Spring

13 then superimpose a sun path diagram 2. Window Shading Masks Plotting a picture of a window shading device and the sun s path to predict sun and shade on a window ARCH 3/431 Spring

14 Profile Angle J I H = Altitude Angle C B A = Profile Angle ARCH 3/431 Spring

15 Profile Angle Dec. 21 Note: if this is a section through a south-facing window, at noon: Profile Angle = Alt. Angle = 90 o - Lat. + Declination June 21 Sept./Mar. 21 Addressing Seasonal Shading: Movable Shading Devices Deciduous Plants ARCH 3/431 Spring
