Thesis Midterm Presentation
This document summarizes Cynthia Kwan's MDesS thesis midterm project on evaluating daylighting metrics for gymnasiums. It outlines current daylight factor and climate-based daylight autonomy methods. Kwan analyzed 30 gymnasium models across the US and Europe using Daysim simulations to calculate daylight autonomy, uniformity ratio, and other metrics. Preliminary results showed a wide range of performance and identified designs with high and low scores. Next steps include further analyzing outliers, developing a scoring system, and guidelines for achieving good daylighting in gymnasia.
