FACADE: an online tool to evaluate solar and daylight access on an unobstructed facade


Adjust model's parameters:

azi: Facade's azimuth °
H: Facade's height
W: Street's width
S: Height of facade's area of interest
B: Gap below facade's area of interest
Add an overhang
L: Overhang's length
T: Position above facade's area
Also consider interreflections
ρf: Facades' reflectance
ρs: Street's reflectance

Remarks:
The calculations will be performed only for the facade's area of interest (coloured in red on the section view) and, optionally, at street level. The sum B+S+T should always remain ≤H. All dimensions can be specified with any unit at any scale. Azimuth is defined clockwise from North: North=0° East=90° South=180° West=270°

Also make computations at street level

Select a geographic location either by specifying:

a latitude or a specific site
