Suitability of neighborhood-scale massing models for daylight performance evaluation

Marilyne Andersen, Luisa Pastore, Minu Agarwal

Access to daylight in buildings is the combined effect of a building’s own physical attributes along with its surrounding physical context. There is thus growing interest among researchers to extend the use of building performance simulation (BPS) tools fo ...
