REQUIREMENTS Achieve a direct line of sight to the outdoors via vision glazing! for 75% of all regularly occupied floor area. View glazing in the contributing area must provide a clear image of the exterior, not obstructed by frits, fibers, patterned glazing, or added tints that distort color balance. Additionally, 75% of all regularly occupied floor area must have at least two of the following four kinds of views! + multiple lines of sight to vision glazing in different directions at least 90 degrees apart; * views that include at least two of the following: (1) flora, fauna, or sky: (2) movement: and (3) objects at least 25 feet from the exterior of the glazing + unobstructed views located within the distance of three times the head height of the vision glazing: and * views with a view factor of 3 or greater, as defined in “Windows and Offices; A Study of Office Worker Performance and the Indoor Environment.” Include in the calculations any permanent interior obsiructions?. Movable furniture and Partitions may be excluded. Views into interior atria may be used to meet up to 30% of the required area, Definitions vision glazing - the glass portion of an exterior window that permits views fo the exterior or inferior. Vision glazing must allow a clear image of the exterior and must not be obstructed by tris, fibers, patlerned glazing, or added tints that distort color balance. 2 permanent interior obstruction - a structure that cannot be moved by the user without fools or assistance from special trades and facies management. Examples include lab hoods, fixed parifions, demountable opaque full oF partial-height partitions, some displays, and equipment. lan c EDUCATION AQ === Of 7@ 2S Ona’ = exe Mos 531000 Beograd SEH 381) 88427 Ve Volar 2019 tan TALIA +3 024738121 Cliente {Cusiomer DIRECT CAPITAL Sd0.0. cee ENERGO eeseto ecie uses on i BEENERGO Stoners dage Implant / Plant al dof: Dislgn"ConsulingEdvecion “Anayss Commessa [ob LEED consuitancy ° Documento/ Document LEED Design guiatines 3. APPROACH AND IMPLEMENTATION #1 Evaluate project site - review the project's surroundings to identify the presence of elements that meet the view quality requirements of this credit, such as parks, green roofs and walls, nearby buildings, and pedestrian and vehicle movement. #2 Design for transparency and quality views - consider how to best allocate interior space to maximize access to views, design enclosures and select fumiture to minimize visual obstructions to perimeter glazing © Develop a feasible tenant layout based on default occupancy (or other justifiable occupancy count} for use in analysis of quality views. Layouts should reflect the anticipated use of the unfinished spaces. © Consider using transparent partitions or providing interior glazing at eye level to ensure views for enclosed spaces. © In openplan offices, select low partitions or incorporate glazed panels to provide views in multiple directions. © Consider using glare control devices that preserve the view to the exterior. Movable glare control devices do not need to be included in the calculations. #3 Identify and list all regularly occupied spaces - Highlight regularly occupied spaces on the floor plan or furiture plan and list all regulary occupied spaces and their respective floor areas. #4 Identify sight lines to exterior views - On floor plans or fumiture plans, identify the locations of perimeter and interior glazing and all permanent interior obstructions. © Determine whether the perimeter and interior glazing qualifies as vision glazing © Identify permanent interior obstructions. Movable fumiture and partitions as well as movable glare control devices may be included in the calculations, but this is not required, #5 Assess view quality - For each regularly occupied space or area of the floor plan, select and mark two view types and add the selection to the tracking table. Eligible view types are as follows: © Multiple lines of sight to vision glazing in different directions al least 90 degrees apart © Views that include at least two of the following: (1) flora, fauna, or sky; (2) movement: and (3) objects at least 25 feet (7.5 meters) from the exterior of the glazing © Unobstructed views located within the distance of three times the head height of the vision glazing © Views with a view factor of 3 or greater, as defined in Windows and Offices: A Study of Office Worker Performance and the Indoor Environment The view types may be mixed and matched, but documentation will be simpler if the same view types are used consistently across spaces. fe ( 6 C gS EDUCATION A\Y 22 Of %@28 Oka’ = exe Mos 531000 Beograd SEH 381) 88427 Ve Volar 2019 tan TALIA +3 024738121 Cliente {Cusiomer DIRECT CAPITAL Sd0.0. cee BEENERGO veri testo : Implant / Plant al dof: Dislgn"ConsulingEdvecion “Anayss Commessa [ob LEED consuitancy ° Documento/ Document LEED Design guiatines If the entire regularly occupied space or area does not meet the requirements of the selected view type, include only the regularly occupied floor area that complies.

ENERGO revere Senos : View factor is a measure of the amount and quality of views within a 90- degree cone of vision from an individual workstation. View factor is rated from 0 (poor quality) to § (high quality} To achieve this credit, teams may determine the view factor for either primary view, what an occupant would see while working on the phone or computer, or break view, what occupants would see while taking a short break by turing their heads or moving their chairs while remaining seated. View factor is determined for each workstation by assessing the vertical and lateral viewing angle for either the primary or the break view (Figure 6). To determine view factor, first find the smaller of the vertical or lateral view angle. Use the angle to identify the preliminary view factor (Table 4). If the view angle falls within the gray zone, assess the content of the view. View angles in the gray zone are rated up one level when the view has very high vegetation content, and down one level if the view has no vegetation content. Figure 6.
