Introduction

Daylight should be a significant source of illumination for all spaces with daylight opening(s). Daylight

is strongly favoured by building occupants as a way to adequately illuminate the indoor surfaces, and to

save energy for electrical lighting.

Daylight can provide significant quantities of light indoors, with high colour rendering and variability,

changing through the day and the seasons. Daylight openings provide views and connection to the

outside and contribute to the psychological well-being of occupants. A daylight opening can also

provide exposure to sunlight indoors, which is important, for example, in dwellings, hospital wards and

nurseries. In a space, where activities comparable to reading, writing or using display devices are

carried out, a shading device should be provided to reduce visual discomfort. The standard addresses

daylighting performance over the year. Daylight should illuminate spaces during a significant fraction of

the annual daylight hours over the year. Daylight provision depends firstly on the availability of daylight

outside (i.e. the prevailing climate at the site) and, thereafter, the environment surrounding the

building, the components immediate around the daylight opening and the configuration of the interior

spaces.

This standard encourages building designers to assess and ensure successfully daylit spaces. It also

allows building designers and developers to target ambitions with respect to daylighting, as well as

addressing other issues related to daylight design, such as view out, protection against glare, and

exposure to sunlight.

1 Scope

This document specifies elements for achieving, by means of natural light, an adequate subjective

impression of lightness indoors, and for providing an adequate view out. In addition, recommendations

for the duration of sunshine exposure within occupied rooms are given.

This document gives information on how to use daylighting to provide lighting within interiors, and

how to limit glare. This document defines metrics used for the evaluation of daylighting conditions and

gives principles of calculation and verification. These principles allow to address the issue of variability

of daylight over the days and the year.

This document applies to all spaces that may be regularly occupied by people for extended periods

except where daylighting is contrary to the nature and role of the actual work done.

The specification of lighting requirements for humans in indoor work places including visual tasks are

given in EN 12464-1 and are not part of this document.

5 Assessment of daylight in interior spaces
5.1 Daylight Provision
5.1.1 General

Daylight can contribute significantly to the lighting needs of any type of building. This means that

daylight openings should have appropriate areas to provide sufficient daylight throughout the year.

Thus, the evaluation of daylight provision should make account of the availability of daylight at the site

in addition to accounting for the properties of the space (e.g. external obstruction, glazing

transmittance, thickness of walls and roofs, internal partition and surface reflectance, funitures).

5.1.2 Criteria for daylight provision

A space is considered to provide adequate daylight if a target illuminance level is achieved across a

fraction of the reference plane within a space for at least half of the daylight hours.

In addition, for spaces with vertical or inclined daylight openings, a minimum target illuminance level is

also to be achieved across the reference plane.

The reference plane of the space is located 0,85 m above the floor, unless otherwise specified. A small

fraction of the reference plane may be disregarded to account for singularities.

Values for target illuminances, minimum target illuminances and fractions of reference plane are given

in Table A.1.
5.1.3 Daylight Provision Calculation Methods

The following methods to assess daylight provision to the interior, using validated software, are

possible:
---------------------- Page: 14 ----------------------
SIST EN 17037:2019
EN 17037:2018 (E)

Method 1) Calculation method using daylight factors on the reference plane. Annex A gives values for

target daylight factors (D ) and minimum target daylight factors (D ) to be achieved depending on

T TM
the given site.

Method 2) Calculation method of illuminance levels on the reference plane using climatic data for the

given site and an adequate time step. Annex A gives values for target illuminances and minimum target

illuminances to be achieve.

Annex B describes recommendations for the daylight calculations using the two methods.

5.1.4 Verification of daylight provision

Verification of daylight provision can be determined using either an adequate software or on site

measurements.

The procedure by software requires a representative model of the space together with the key

parameters (such as any significant nearby obstructions, the assigned surface reflectance values and

glazing transmissivity) that are a reasonable representation of those for the actual, completed building.

This can be determined using either Method 1 or Method 2 described in 5.1.3.

On site, it can also be verified using illuminance meters, to measure the distribution of the daylight

factor in the actual, completed building. It needs to be conducted at grid points of the reference plane

(see B.2) Methods for verification are described in Annex B.
5.2 Assessment for view out
5.2.1 General

View to the outside provides visual connection with the surroundings to supply information about the

local environment, weather changes and the time of day. This information can relieve the fatigue

associated with long periods of being indoors. All occupants of a space should have the opportunity for

the refreshment and relaxation afforded by a change of scene and focus. View to the outside should be

assessed from selected reference points corresponding to where people are located within the u

Introduction

Daylight should be a significant source of illumination for all spaces with daylight opening(s). Daylight

is strongly favoured by building occupants as a way to adequately illuminate the indoor surfaces, and to

save energy for electrical lighting.

Daylight can provide significant quantities of light indoors, with high colour rendering and variability,

changing through the day and the seasons. Daylight openings provide views and connection to the

outside and contribute to the psychological well-being of occupants. A daylight opening can also

provide exposure to sunlight indoors, which is important, for example, in dwellings, hospital wards and

nurseries. In a space, where activities comparable to reading, writing or using display devices are

carried out, a shading device should be provided to reduce visual discomfort. The standard addresses

daylighting performance over the year. Daylight should illuminate spaces during a significant fraction of

the annual daylight hours over the year. Daylight provision depends firstly on the availability of daylight

outside (i.e. the prevailing climate at the site) and, thereafter, the environment surrounding the

building, the components immediate around the daylight opening and the configuration of the interior

spaces.

This standard encourages building designers to assess and ensure successfully daylit spaces. It also

allows building designers and developers to target ambitions with respect to daylighting, as well as

addressing other issues related to daylight design, such as view out, protection against glare, and

exposure to sunlight.

1 Scope

This document specifies elements for achieving, by means of natural light, an adequate subjective

impression of lightness indoors, and for providing an adequate view out. In addition, recommendations

for the duration of sunshine exposure within occupied rooms are given.

This document gives information on how to use daylighting to provide lighting within interiors, and

how to limit glare. This document defines metrics used for the evaluation of daylighting conditions and

gives principles of calculation and verification. These principles allow to address the issue of variability

of daylight over the days and the year.

This document applies to all spaces that may be regularly occupied by people for extended periods

except where daylighting is contrary to the nature and role of the actual work done.

The specification of lighting requirements for humans in indoor work places including visual tasks are

given in EN 12464-1 and are not part of this document.

5 Assessment of daylight in interior spaces
5.1 Daylight Provision
5.1.1 General

Daylight can contribute significantly to the lighting needs of any type of building. This means that

daylight openings should have appropriate areas to provide sufficient daylight throughout the year.

Thus, the evaluation of daylight provision should make account of the availability of daylight at the site

in addition to accounting for the properties of the space (e.g. external obstruction, glazing

transmittance, thickness of walls and roofs, internal partition and surface reflectance, funitures).

5.1.2 Criteria for daylight provision

A space is considered to provide adequate daylight if a target illuminance level is achieved across a

fraction of the reference plane within a space for at least half of the daylight hours.

In addition, for spaces with vertical or inclined daylight openings, a minimum target illuminance level is

also to be achieved across the reference plane.

The reference plane of the space is located 0,85 m above the floor, unless otherwise specified. A small

fraction of the reference plane may be disregarded to account for singularities.

Values for target illuminances, minimum target illuminances and fractions of reference plane are given

in Table A.1.
5.1.3 Daylight Provision Calculation Methods

The following methods to assess daylight provision to the interior, using validated software, are

possible:
---------------------- Page: 14 ----------------------
SIST EN 17037:2019
EN 17037:2018 (E)

Method 1) Calculation method using daylight factors on the reference plane. Annex A gives values for

target daylight factors (D ) and minimum target daylight factors (D ) to be achieved depending on

T TM
the given site.

Method 2) Calculation method of illuminance levels on the reference plane using climatic data for the

given site and an adequate time step. Annex A gives values for target illuminances and minimum target

illuminances to be achieve.

Annex B describes recommendations for the daylight calculations using the two methods.

5.1.4 Verification of daylight provision

Verification of daylight provision can be determined using either an adequate software or on site

measurements.

The procedure by software requires a representative model of the space together with the key

parameters (such as any significant nearby obstructions, the assigned surface reflectance values and

glazing transmissivity) that are a reasonable representation of those for the actual, completed building.

This can be determined using either Method 1 or Method 2 described in 5.1.3.

On site, it can also be verified using illuminance meters, to measure the distribution of the daylight

factor in the actual, completed building. It needs to be conducted at grid points of the reference plane

(see B.2) Methods for verification are described in Annex B.
5.2 Assessment for view out
5.2.1 General

View to the outside provides visual connection with the surroundings to supply information about the

local environment, weather changes and the time of day. This information can relieve the fatigue

associated with long periods of being indoors. All occupants of a space should have the opportunity for

the refreshment and relaxation afforded by a change of scene and focus. View to the outside should be

assessed from selected reference points corresponding to where peop

SIST EN 17037 : 2019
Uvod

Dnevna svetloba je pomemben vir osvetlitve v vseh prostorih s svetlobnimi odprtinami. Uporabniki stavb

so naklonjeni dnevni svetlobi kot viru, ki ustrezno osvetljuje notranje površine in zmanjšuje porabo

električne energije za razsvetljavo.

Dnevna svetloba lahko v prostoru zagotovi znatno količino svetlobe, ki ima kakovostno barvno

reprodukcijo in se spreminja v teku dneva in letnih časov. Svetlobne odprtine zagotavljajo pogled

navzven in povezavo z zunanjostjo ter prispevajo k psihološkemu dobremu počutju uporabnikov.

Svetlobna odprtina lahko zagotovi tudi trajanje osončenosti notranjih prostorov, kar je pomembno na

primer v stanovanjih, bolnišničnih oddelkih in vrtcih. V prostorih, kjer se izvajajo dejavnosti, kot je pisanje

ali uporaba naprav za prikazovanje, je za zmanjšanje vidnega neugodja treba zagotoviti senčila.

Standard obravnava dnevno osvetljevanje med letom. Prostori naj bodo osvetljeni z dnevno svetlobo v

velikem deležu letnih svetlih ur. Osvetljevanje z dnevno svetlobo je odvisno predvsem od razpoložljivosti

dnevne svetlobe zunaj (tj. od prevladujočih podnebnih razmer na kraju), okolice stavbe, elementov

neposredno ob svetlobni odprtini in zasnove notranjih prostorov.

Standard spodbuja projektante, da izračunajo in zagotovijo uspešno dnevno osvetljevanje prostorov.

Prav tako omogoča projektantom in investitorjem, da si zastavijo cilje na področju dnevnega

osvetljevanja in drugih vprašanj, povezanih z dnevno svetlobo, kot so pogled navzven, zaščita pred

bleščanjem in trajanje osončenosti.

SIST EN 17037 : 2019
1 Področje uporabe

Ta standard opredeljuje dejavnike za doseganje ustreznega subjektivnega vtisa dnevne osvetljenosti

notranjih prostorov z naravno svetlobo in za zagotavljanje primernega pogleda navzven. Poleg tega

podaja tudi priporočila za trajanje osončenosti v bivalnih prostorih.

Standard podaja informacije, kako uporabiti dnevno svetlobo za razsvetljavo notranjih prostorov in kako

omejiti bleščanje. Standard tudi opredeljuje merske enote, ki se uporabljajo za vrednotenje pogojev

dnevnega osvetljevanja, ter določa postopke za izračun in preverjanje. Ti postopki omogočajo

obravnavanje spremenljivosti dnevne svetlobe preko dneva in leta.

Standard se uporablja za vse prostore, ki jih ljudje lahko redno in dlje časa uporabljajo, razen kadar je

dnevna svetloba v nasprotju z naravo in načinom opravljanja dejanskega dela.

Zahteve za razsvetljavo notranjih delovnih mest za ljudi, vključno z vidnimi nalogami, so podane v EN

12464-1 in niso del tega standarda.

5 Ocenjevanje dnevne svetlobe v notranjih prostorih
5.1 Osvetljevanje z dnevno svetlobo
5.1.1 Splošno

Dnevna svetloba lahko znatno prispeva k zadovoljevanju potreb po razsvetljavi v katerikoli vrsti stavbe.

To pomeni, da naj imajo svetlobne odprtine primerno velike površine, da je zagotovljena zadostna

dnevna svetloba med letom. Zato naj ovrednotenje osvetljevanja z dnevno svetlobo poleg lastnosti

prostora upošteva razpoložljivost dnevne svetlobe na kraju (npr. zunanje ovire, presevnost zasteklitve,

debelino sten in strehe, notranje delitve prostora, refleksivnost površin, pohištvo).

5.1.2 Merila za osvetljevanje z dnevno svetlobo

Da je prostor primerno dnevno osvetljen, se šteje, če je ciljna raven osvetljenosti na deležu referenčne

ravnine v prostoru dosežena najmanj polovico svetlega dela dneva.

V prostorih z vertikalnimi ali poševnimi svetlobnimi odprtinami mora biti najmanjša ciljna osvetljenost

dosežena na celotni referenčni ravnini.

Če ni določeno drugače, se referenčna ravnina prostora nahaja 0,85 m nad tlemi. Manjši delež

referenčne ravnine (npr. manjša odstopanja in nepravilnosti) se lahko zanemari.
---------------------- Page: 12 ----------------------
SIST EN 17037 : 2019

Vrednosti ciljnih ravni osvetljenosti, najmanjših ciljnih ravni osvetljenosti in deležev referenčne ravnine

so podane v preglednici A.1.
5.1.3 Postopki za izračun osvetljevanja z dnevno svetlobo

Za ocenitev osvetljevanja z dnevno svetlobo v notranjih prostorih z validirano programsko opremo se

uporabljata naslednja postopka:

Postopek 1): Računski postopek z uporabo faktorjev dnevne svetlobe na referenčni ravnini. Dodatek

A podaja vrednosti za ciljne faktorje dnevne svetlobe (D ) in najmanjše ciljne faktorje dnevne svetlobe

(D ), ki jih je treba doseči na določenem kraju.

Postopek 2): Postopek za izračun ravni osvetljenosti na referenčni ravnini z uporabo krajevnih

podnebnih podatkov in primernega časovnega koraka. V dodatku A so podane vrednosti za ciljne ravni

osvetljenosti in najmanjše ciljne ravni osvetljenosti, ki jih je treba doseči.

V dodatku B so podana priporočila za izračune dnevne svetlobe z obema računskima postopkoma.

5.1.4 Preverjanje osvetljevanja z dnevno svetlobo

Preverjanje osvetljevanja z dnevno svetlobo se lahko izvede z ustrezno programsko opremo ali

meritvami na kraju samem.

Pri uporabi programske opreme je treba izdelati reprezentativni model prostora s ključnimi parametri

(bistvene bližnje ovire, opredeljena odsevnost površin in presevnost zasteklitve), ki smiselno prikažejo

stvarno, zgrajeno stavbo. Preverjanje se lahko izvede z uporabo postopkov 1 ali 2, opisanih v 5.1.3.

Na kraju samem se osvetljevanje z dnevno svetlobo lahko preveri tudi z merilniki osvetljenosti, s

pomočjo katerih se izmeri porazdelitev faktorja dnevne svetlobe v stvarni, zgrajeni stavbi. Meritve je

treba izvesti v točkah v mreži na referenčni ravnini (glej B.2)
