Kingspan Light + Air

This CPD looks at the benefits of good daylight design, including physiological, environmental and financial benefits. Attendees will receive clarification of relevant Building Regulations and standards, examples of how current industry practices can be improved, differences between existing daylighting materials, insight into new daylighting technologies and examples of climate-based daylight modelling in several key sectors. This seminar will help you to understand the following topics:
- What the problem is, how the industry falls short of gaining the most benefit from natural daylight in building design and operation
- The minimum levels of daylighting required for healthy, efficient and productive buildings
- Why good daylighting design is important and what benefits it can bring
- Building Regulation and relevant standards including BREEAM and WELL environmental standards
- The difference between existing daylighting materials
- Some examples of new daylighting technologies
- How to conduct climate-based daylight modelling and how to interpret the results
