Determining the Suitability of Computer-Aided Daylight Simulation Method in the Design Process |

International Journal of Architectural Computing vol. 2 - no. 2 |
summary |
The successful use of daylight in a building requiresthat the associated forms and devices be conceived asan integral part of the architectural design. Thepopular methods of simulation for daylighting design:manual methods, physical scale model and computergraphics based rendering do not provide a robustmodel for daylighting decision-making during thedesign process due to their individual limitations. Therecent advances in computer-aided design andrendering compel another look at visually simulatingdaylight. This paper discusses a project undertaken totest a computer-aided daylight simulation program’saccuracy and ability to allow quick iterative daylightexplorations, essential to any design decision-makingprocess. Real buildings with their existing complexitiesare selected as case studies. The outcomes arediscussed and recommendations for future daylightsimulation software programs to be suitable in thedesign process are suggested. |
