Daylit space
According to the Non-domestic building services compliance guide, 2013 edition, published by HM Government, the term ‘daylit space’ refers to:
Any space:
The normal light transmittance of the glazing should be at least 70%; if the light transmittance is below 70%, the glazing area should be increased proportionately for the space to be defined as daylit. |
