3 Analytical Tools Day-Lighting Notes The NRB facility (highlighted in red) will be generally unobstructed by adjacent site buildings in regard to solar exposure. The link partially obscures the west wing in the morning and the east wing in the afternoon. 3
4 Analytical Tools Day-Lighting and Glare Notes While a large, un-shaded area of glazing provides ample illumination of the interior, the brightest (red) interior surfaces are in stark contrast to the darkest areas. The result is glare. Occupants at the perimeter will tend to close the shades, thereby reducing available light throughout. 4
