Course Details
• Introduction to Daylighting Metrics – Understanding the basics of daylighting metrics, their importance, and how they contribute to sustainable building design.
• Daylight Factor (DF) – Learning the calculation and application of Daylight Factor, a widely used metric for assessing daylight availability in buildings.
• Climate-Based Daylight Metrics (CBDM) – Exploring the concepts and methods of CBDM, which consider climate data and building orientation to evaluate daylight performance.
• Solar Radiation and Shading – Examining the impact of solar radiation on building daylighting and the role of shading devices in optimizing daylighting metrics.
• Luminous Efficacy and Luminance – Understanding the concepts of luminous efficacy and luminance, and their relevance to daylighting design and metrics.
• Daylight Autonomy (DA) – Delving into the calculation and interpretation of Daylight Autonomy, a metric that assesses the percentage of time a space meets recommended daylight illuminance levels.
• Useful Daylight Illuminance (UDI) – Investigating the concept of Useful Daylight Illuminance and its utility in evaluating the quality of daylighting and occupant comfort.
• Continuous Daylight Autonomy (CDA) – Learning about Continuous Daylight Autonomy, a metric that considers both illuminance and duration to evaluate daylighting performance.
• Integration of Metrics in Incubator Design – Applying the acquired knowledge of daylighting metrics to design and optimize incubator spaces for improved daylight performance.
