Abstract
The use of effective daylighting systems is one of the main factors that inflounces energy consumption in buildings especially in deep office spaces. Therefore, the need for innovative daylighting systems with optimum overall daylighting performance - especially in term of saving energy performance - is an essential design element for such spaces. Light shelf systems are the most major potential lighting systems that can be used to provide such innovative daylighting systems.The parametric approach was implemented where all possible combinations of the various design parameters for the main two design elements of the light shelf system (light shelf and room specifications) were computed through Diva-for-Rhino (Grasshopper). The study of optimized light shelf systems in deep office spaces has been carried out in case of an external obstacle (neighbor) and without it – according to the Egyptian building codes - in order to identify the impact of such design elements on the performance of the optimized light shelf system in the main four directions in hot arid zone climate.
