20.500.12556/RUL-128467 Daylight provision requirements according to EN 17037 as a restriction for sustainable urban planning of residential developments The attempt at a more sustainable land use by increasing urban density may have a negative effect on the daylighting of residential buildings. In densely built areas, obstructions generated by the surrounding buildings can substantially reduce the available amount of daylight, causing poorly daylit spaces and a less healthy indoor environment with higher electricity consumption as a consequence of artificial lighting. European standard EN 17037, Daylight in Buildings, was established in 2018 to ensure appropriately daylit spaces. In this paper, a three-step methodology was developed to investigate the relationship between certain urban planning parameters and the daylighting of a typical room defined by specific (Slovenian) legislative restrictions about its geometry and minimum required window to floor area ratio, in order to establish the maximum densities of residential developments still fulfilling the minimum requirements for daylight provision defined by EN 17037. The results show that a relatively low urban density is required to fulfil the stipulations for minimum daylight provision for the deepest permissible room according to the Slovenian legislation. The impact of the development floor area ratio on the daylighting potential of buildings was identified as significant, followed by the site coverage, development layout, and building typology. Furthermore, the developed methodological approach clearly demonstrates a substantial potential for application in urban planning, with indoor daylight environmental conditions being linked to the planning of residential developments in the earliest stages of the project. sustainable urban planning daylighting vertical daylight factor EN 17037 residential developments solar potential urbanizem trajnostni razvoj razsvetljava navpični faktor dnevne svetlobe EN 17037 stanovanjski razvoj sončni potencial true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Članek v reviji 2021-07-14 11:54:07 2021-07-14 11:54:08 2022-09-07 04:15:21 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2020 0 0 22 str. iss. 1, art. 315 Vol. 12 2020 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 711.4:620.92/.98 2071-1050 10.3390/su12010315 22910486 RAZ_Sprah_Natasa_2020.pdf RAZ_Sprah_Natasa_2020.pdf 1 68FD66B3D32627C6D8FD18831B4059CD f5b9d25c4407b63be41afc0478c1f88beb5471e3b48fa866f9ea5fd5ebed3e3a 82ca00ed-e489-11eb-a523-00155dcfd717 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=145217 https://www.mdpi.com/2071-1050/12/1/315 0 72d19b68-e489-11eb-a523-00155dcfd717 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=145216 Fakulteta za gradbeništvo in geodezijo 0 0 0
