Daylighting & Ventilation Strategies for High Performance Schools & Buildings
Sponsored by VELUX Commercial, a division of VELUX America LLC
Learning Objectives:
- Review the principles of light – human physiology, perception and the differences of daylight versus electrical light and impact on health and wellness.
- Review indoor air quality and understand the value of proper ventilation.
- Define the need for an Integrated ‘Whole Building’ Design process and the innovations surrounding high performance glazing technologies.
- Define a ‘High Performance School' and identify the key design considerations for classrooms.
- Explain the value of daylighting and passive air ventilation contributing to a Net Zero school.

In this course we will review the definition of High Performance Schools as defined by the U.S. EPA and the CHPS Criteria. Review principals of light, daylighting, and illustrate multiple skylight systems as tools for an effective lighting design strategy. The impact of daylight support circadian health and learning. The role of Indoor Air Quality, daylighting and passive air contributing Net Zero schools will be addressed.
Last, we will provide an overview of current innovations in high performance glazing that help ensure daylighting designs achieve set performance standards.
