Conceptual design metrics for daylighting

Lighting Research & Technology, 2011
Daylight is a key component of green building; however, no prevailing metric has emerged to help identify buildings that are well-daylit buildings. This paper proposes a ‘daylighting dashboard’; a visual representation of a design’s potential to meet eight design goals: average illuminance, coverage, diffuse daylight, daylight autonomy, circadian ...

Analysis of daylight metrics of side-lit room in Canton, south China: A comparison between daylight autonomy and daylight factor

Energy and Buildings, 2017
Abstract To ensure sufficient daylight in rooms, daylight performance metrics are the basic references to guide building design or to benchmark a building against another in terms of daylighting in a room. Daylight factor (DF) is the most commonly accepted daylight performance metric, but it has limitations in evaluating the daylighting of a room ...

Scoping Study for Daylight Metrics from Luminance Maps

LEUKOS, 2007
AbstractMetrics of the quantity and quality of daylight are essential for assessing whether buildings provide good (or even adequate) daylighting for the purposes of human health and wellbeing, visual comfort, and energy saving.At present there are only a few metrics of daylight that are used by designers and researchers. Most of these are very simple,

The study of effective factors in daylight performance of light-wells with dynamic daylight metrics in residential buildings

Solar Energy, 2017
Abstract Increasing housing demand and the precious value of city land have caused to the construction of multi-storey, deep-plan and compact buildings. Architectural design needs to provide the appropriate penetration of daylight and ventilation into the deep-plan buildings. Therefore further researches are necessary in the field of natural lighting

A critical review of daylighting metrics for residential architecture and a new metric for cold and temperate climates

Lighting Research & Technology, 2018
Residential architecture constitutes one of the largest market segments in the construction sector. However, the attention that it is given in the field of daylight performance simulation is surprisingly low. This poses the question of whether existing daylighting metrics are well suited for residential design.

Daylight and health: exploring the relationship between established daylighting metrics for green building compliance and new metrics for human health

2019
Climate-based daylight modeling (CBDM) workflows are currently being used by professionals to generate dynamic daylighting metrics such as spatial daylight autonomy (sDA) for the purpose of examining lighting performance. However, existing daylighting metrics evaluate daylight illuminance on a horizontal workplane, which does not reflect the vertical ...

A novel circadian daylight metric for building design and evaluation

Building and Environment, 2017
Abstract This paper extends the applicability of emerging frameworks for evaluating the non-visual effects of light through the development of a novel area-based daylighting metric addressing goals of human circadian stimulus and entrainment in buildings.
