× The Usage Of The Double Glazed Facade Is A Promising Approach Capitalizing Renewable Energy Sources From Sunlight In The Context Of Depleting Non-Renewable Energy Resources. However, The Characterization Of Daylight Is An Important Parameter For The Enhancement Of Double Glazed Facade Applicability. Therefore, The Purpose Of This Research Was To Analyze And Optimize Light Intensity Inside The Office At Different Cavity Depths And Sensor Heights. The Research Was Practiced On 10 Window Sizes At Four Different Cavity Depths (0.5 M, 1.0 M, 1.5 M, 2.0 M) And Three Different Sensor Heights Specifically At (0.7 M, 1.4 M, 2.1 M) Applying Two Software (Ecotect And Dialux) Where The Maximum Allowable Interior Lighting Level Was Considered 500 Lux. The Obtained Outcome Uncovered The Most Optimum Wwr Is 50% That Found At 1 M Cavity Depth And 0.7 M Sensor Grid Height For Acquiring The Maximum Daylight Influx, Which Refers To 469 Lux (Dl), 4.69% (Df) And 482 Lux (Dl), 4.82% (Df) Within A Recommended Daylight Level Of Influx For An Office Building. The Conclusion Made Most Answered The Hypothesis On Daylight On Reducing The Use Of Artificial Light.
