If I have two different glass types with different Tvis Values in the same room, do I run the calcs on the specific areas of glass using the same floor area and then add the two result together?
Thanks,

One approach would be to calculate a new Tvis value based on the "weighted average" of the two different types of glass (i.e. A.Tvis represents 20% of the glass square footage, B.Tvis represents 80% of the glass square footage); this new average Tvis value can then be multiplied by the overall square footage of the glass and regularly occupied floor area.
