A Guide for Building Daylight Scale Models
Scale models are used frequently to evaluate the daylighting performance of buildings. In order to get accurate results, there are several rules to respect when building these scale models. Some of these rules are universal, while others depend on the measurement and observation devices, the type of sky under which the study is carried out, and the objectives of the study. This paper, based on the author's experience and on a literature review, presents rules to respect when building a mock-up for daylighting studies. These rules are illustrated by project examples that were tested under the Belgian artificial skies (single-patch sky and sun simulator, mirror box and mechanical sun).
