One of the LEED v4 Quality View Requirements

#1

Hello,

I have a question regarding “Multiple lines of sight to vision glazing in different directions at least 90 apart” which is one of the LEED v4 Quality View requirements.

I don’t quite understand why the results are different when I change my building orientations. I think that orientation does not matter in this situation.

I used the same python script from Hydra (given by @chris), so I assume that my post-processing part is not quite there yet. Can anyone help this? Also, does anyone have an idea to get the same result using native grasshopper components instead of a python script? Quality View Question.gh (406.0 KB)

Much appreciate it.

Hi @seung,

Could you test this? I have tried to replicate test you need using VPL, but I leave to you to study it.
Basically this component generate N vectors for each test point:
