Daylighting Evaluation of Perforated Screen Façade with Light Shelf in the Tropics
Dimensi: Journal of Architecture and Built EnvironmentThe use of large glass facades in buildings without external shading devices leads to a high daylight level, uneven daylight distribution, and glare. A perforated screen facade (PSF) is one of the shading systems that can provide daylight and view and ...

Performance and Aesthetic Effects of Daylight [PDF]
Proceedings of the Human Factors Society Annual Meeting, 1980 An experimental booth was constructed wherein north daylight or cool white fluorescent from either the side or top could be provided with the artificial horizontal illuminance matched to the daylight illuminance (at 320 to 860 lx). Thirty college student subjects performed needle threading, proofreading and graphreading tasks without awareness of the ...
