2 Daylighting Components SC=Sun + Sky IRC 1 IRC2 ERC S: F p. 598 Daylighting Factor (DF) The quantity of interior illuminance on a horizontal work plane expressed as a percentage of illuminance of an exterior unobstructed horizontal plane DF (%) = (E INT /E EXT ) x 100 Daylighting Factor (DF) If E INT is 20 foot-candles and E EXT is 1000 foot-candles, then what is the daylighting factor? DF(%)= (E INT /E EXT ) x 100 DF (%)=(20/1000) x 100 DF (%)=2.0% 2
