ARCH 655 Project 2 1. Project Objective This project aims to find the optimal window to wall ratio and the number of facade shadings that meets LEED version 4 daylighting criteria. The target model is Lotte World Tower created in Project 1. 2. Geometry Decision for Daylighting Analysis I decided to analyze daylighting for a single floor to reduce the computational cost for the simulation. The indoor area of the 10th floor was chosen for daylighting analysis. Windows are (as shown below figure) curtain panel styles and built on the surface of the outside wall. These are the outside walls and facade shadings for daylighting analysis. 3. Parametric Modeling The first step is to create floors. Once the floors, walls, and shadings are ready, I linked them to the Honeybee zone identifier. And add windows to walls and set transmittance factor to windows. I used 60% transmittance for windows. Then, I created grids on the 10th floor f
