Daylight factor values on the workplane

DIAL+ allows you to calculate Daylight Factor values on virtual plans (horizontal planes or vertical walls). Simulations are made with Radiance (http://www.radiance-online.org) under CIE overcast sky (Commission International de l'Eclairage).

This calculation module has been validated according to the CIE 171-2006 protocol: (Download the validation document)

This calculation is consistent with the requirements of the main labels dealing with daylighting (CERTIVEA  BREEAM, LEED, etc).
