Abstract
By means of the openings in the buildings, direct solar radiation control is highly important in our latitudes so as avoid overheating problems in summer. However, such control has to be selective, restrictive in summer and of maxim efficiency in winter. This paper deals with a calculation method on fixed solar Controls for walls facing any azimuthal orientation, according to their size. The results are shown in handy charts which allow the optimization of the sizing.

Summary
By means ofthe openings in the buildings, direct solar radiation control is highly important in our latitudes so as avoid overheating problems in summer. Such control has to be selective, restrictive in summer and ofmaxim ejficiency in winter. Habitualmente se utilizan métodos gráficos, con la ayuda de cartas solares (cilindricas o estereográficas) y van dirigidos al conocimiento de las sombras proyectadas por otros edificios, obstáculos geográficos o vegetación más que al control de la aportación de radiación (Referencias 1 y 2). El método aquí presentado permite determinar las dimensiones geométricas del control solar (tipo alero, toldo o persiana) en función de la radiación directa que penetra al interior del edificio a través de la ventana, tanto en invierno como en verano y para cualquier orientación de la pared. ¡as distintas paredes, para el mes de Julio a 41°23' de latitud
