- 3Depends on window size, orientation, obstruction
Worked Examples
Вход
Indoor illumination 100 lux, outdoor 5000 lux
Резултат
Daylight factor = 2% (borderline, likely needs supplementary lighting)
Typical office
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- ✕Over-sizing windows in climate with high cooling loads
- ✕Neglecting glare control in high daylight factor spaces
