CI-2009 IEQc8.2: Daylight and Views—Views for Seated Spaces
Herman Miller has given me a diagram showing that 46" high partitions are ok for achieving this credit as long as there is a direct line of sight (not on the horizontal) at 42". Has anyone else seen this diagram? The Reference Guide somewhat contradicts itself with Figure 1 on page 408 saying 'Horizontal View at 42 inches" but has an arrow at an angle.
Anyone have insight on this issue?

For Exemplary Performance, what is a View Factor?
Does furniture need to be included in floor plan when completing views calculations?
What is considered a regularly occupied space?

I have no problem getting thru' with systems furniture having panels greater than 42" so long as it is lined up perpendicular to the source of daylight. Thus in application, am talking about the centre spine only, not the side panels. Of course we always specify reasonable height just sufficient to screen out visual distraction, never installed high panel.
