NC-2009 IEQc8.1:Daylight and Views—Daylight

Looking for an example

In the course of the 30+ LEED projects I have participated in, I have never successfully achieved this credit. Recently, an internal group has been working together to figure out what we can change about our strategy to make this more obtainable. Does anyone have an example of what would fulfill this credit? A PDF of an accepted template would be excellent. My email is EGeary[at]MBakerCorp.com Thank you very much

Eamon, you need to be more specific. What option of the credit have you attempted and what option of the credit are looking for? My other question is this, are the projects that you have worked truly attempted to daylight the spaces? What i mean by this is that daylight was in the DNA of the design, not an after thought during CD. To be successful with daylight, it has to be designed into the spaces.

I agree with Todd. Daylight design shall be incorporated into early design to get this credit. Building massing and interior layout strategy will be important to achieve this credit.
