Hello! I am working with the new Supplemental Daylight and Views Calculation Spreadsheet, prescriptive option. There is a column "Glare Control Type for spaces with VLT X WFR > 0.18". Does it mean that we don't need any glare control devices if VLT X WFR

You must provide glare control devices for all spaces that are compliant. Only if you have incorporated automated shades are you allowed to meet the requirement with the 0.150 value. It doesn't make any sense as to why that header is labeled that way because the requirement has always been that you must provide some type of glare control device. I never noticed that before. all the erratas and addendas state that you must provide glare control devices. I'm going to go through some channels and see whats up with that header. I can see how someone filling it out could provide the wrong information causing for review issues.
