44Interior vs. Exterior Shades
45Interior Shading Devices
These do NOT control heat gain -- only issues of
glare.
46Interior Shading Devices
Interior blinds CAN be used to assist in
daylighting and light distribution within the
space.
47Shading Strategies for West and East Elevations
Horizontal overhangs DO NOT WORK.
48Shading Strategies for West and East Elevations
Fins work best. Spacing is an issue, as well as
fin length.

51The sun also hits the façade from the north east
and north west during the summer. Fins can be
used to control this oblique light as well. It is
a function of the latitude, window size and fin
depth/frequency.

59Learning how to plot shadows...
- important to get a quick and dirty
understanding of your building and its shadow
patterns (both INTERIOR and EXTERIOR) - need to
do this BEFORE you commit to extensive designs -
can use computers to simulate - can do sun angle
diagrams - can build a quick massing model and
model it on a HELIODON
60Plotting shadows with these diagrams...
