The project has an exterior canopy that wraps the building and projects 5\'-0" from the exterior glazing. The daylight responsive controls for our project will be installed within 10\' of the window glazing. In order to achieve this credit, do we need to install the controls 15\' from the edge of the exterior canopy or 15\' from the window glazing?
The project team is requesting clarification on the location of daylight responsive lighting controls to meet Credit EAc1.2 requirements. The credit requires that the controls be located within 15\' of the window glazing in all regularly occupied spaces. The exterior canopy provides shading for the glazing but is not considered as part of this dimension. Installing daylight control sensors within 10\' of the window glazing will meet this portion of credit requirements. Applicable Internationally.
