31 VOCATIONAL EDUCATION BUILDING DAYLIGHTING STUDIES FOR: CTA Group- Boise, ID 108 N 6TH STREET BOISE, ID PH FX

32 INTEGRATED DESIGN LAB This project includes analysis of two large open spaces for vocational education. The space too the North has an approximately 35 ceiling height allowing for specialty equipment. Dissecting the two spaces is a hallway leading from the classroom portion on the West end with access to the large spaces along its length and terminating at the East entrance. The south space is composed of an open auto shop through the center and a spray shop at the East end. The roof is articulated in a cascading fashion from high in the north to low in the south to allow for clerestory lighting.

79 Physical Model Digital Model INTEGRATED DAYLIGHT FACTOR DESIGN LAB Several key factors are to be considered when comparing these two models. Only half of the physical model was actually constructed with the rest being represented by a mirror placed at midpoint, this mirroring is helpful in keeping the model to a manageable size, but reduced accuracy somewhat. The physical model also has no glass built in and must account for the specific VLT of the glass with a universal reduction factor in Excel after data collection.

87 PHYSICAL MODEL CONSTRUCTION Building a complex physical model may take several days to a week to complete. Modeling construction may need to account for iterative testing and the ability to modify the model for different analysis. This model had adjustable clerestory positions, window sizing and baffle location and type Hr. DATA COLLECTION / ANALYSIS Time in this process is driven by the amount and difficulty of modification being tested. In this project 14 physical iterations were tested during analysis. 48 Hr. DOCUMENATATION/REPORTING Displaying data in a meaningful and simple manner is essential Hr Hr. Total for 14 iterations ~ hours each DIGITAL MODEL CONSTRUCTION A complex digital model may be imported from other software platforms into Ecotect or directly to Radiance, however more this often requires significant remodeling. Extreme detail is possible but increased vertices results in increased processing time Hr. DATA COLLECTION / ANALYSIS This analysis included Daysim and Radiance runs but excludes computer processing time entirely. 18 digital iterations were tested during analysis. 56 Hr. DOCUMENATATION/REPORTING Displaying data in a meaningful and simple manner is essential. 58 Hr Hr. Total for 18 iterations ~ hours each (Plus computer processing time) INTEGRATED MODELING DESIGN LAB Detailed Iterative Depending on the project and level of design resolution a highly detailed model can be created and simulated with both digital and physical tools.

95 PHYSICAL MODEL CONSTRUCTION Simple physical models can be constructed in a single day can be modified on the fly during data collection and analysis phases. These models need only represent a scaled space and the requisite surfaces at a reflectance similar to those planned for the building 38 Hr. DATA COLLECTION / ANALYSIS Time in this process is driven by the amount and difficulty of modification being tested. In this project 4 physical iterations were tested during analysis Hr. DOCUMENATATION/REPORTING Displaying data in a meaningful and simple manner is essential Hr. 74 Hr. Total for 4 iterations ~ 18.5 hours each DIGITAL MODEL CONSTRUCTION Creation of simple digital models from geometry inputs from other software can some times mean re-modeling, However if speed is more concerning than quality and accuracy, ie. at the initial design phase, it is possible to work directly from an imported model or even to work directly out of a modeling program such as SketchUp Hr.
