Dear Leed Support,
I was doing daylight calculation using glazing factor formulae. I would like to know how to get Window Geometry Factor and window height factor.
While trying to understand this calculation, I come across daylight factor. So, is daylight factor similar to glazing factor?
It will be a great help if you can reply at the earliest.

Do I actually need to submit the USGBC Daylight and Quality Views calculator?
Can electrochromic glazing qualify as a glare control device?

Matouleibi, daylight factor and glazing factor are different kinds of measurements. Daylight factor has to do with light levels, while glazing factor has to do with the physical properties of the building.
