CI-2009 IEQc8.2:Daylight and Views—Views for Seated Spaces

local installation in DC

I have a few open offices where multiple occupants work in the same space, our workstation panels are just above the 42" height so we won't be able to qualify as 100% in these areas. However, the workstation by the perimeter windows qualify for the credit as these people do get views. How shall I calculate the "no view" area? or the entire sq of the room is not account for? thanks.

Are you workstation panels fixed? Moveable partitions can be excluded in you calculations. Use your line of sight plan to determine the areas that have views. Refer to the reference guide for a sample line of sight plan. Any area with a line of sight to the perimeter counts.
