What is green building model?

The Green Building Model Green building is generally defined as the planning, design, construction, and operation of buildings that prioritize environmental outcomes by increasing consideration of energy and water use, indoor environmental quality, and materials and building site selection.

What is meant by daylight analysis?

Daylight analysis is normally performed in the later stages of building design. These analyses are generally carried out by specialized engineers who focus on the performance of individual rooms. Daylight factor is the most common metric for this purpose and many national codes are based on this type of assessment.

How is daylight factor calculated?

Daylight Factor is typically calculated by dividing the horizontal work plane illumination indoors by the horizontal illumination on the roof of the building being tested and then multiplying by 100.

What do we need to analyze when making daylight simulations?

Daylighting simulation tools make it possible to evaluate the quantity and distribution of daylight in a room, while taking into account key influential parameters such as window placement, building geometry, external obstruction, interior divisions and material properties.
