Admission of daylighting in hospitals is crucial as it creates a positive healing <br /> <br /> <br /> environment. Healing environments that enjoy natural daylight have a positive <br /> <br /> <br /> impact on the health and well-being of patients and medical staff. Daylight can <br /> <br /> <br /> help in reducing patient stress, fatigue and length of stay, while increasing patient <br /> <br /> <br /> and staff safety and satisfaction. <br /> <br /> <br /> General children practice room of Dental and Oral Hospital of Padjadjaran <br /> <br /> <br /> University is located on the second floor with many natural light openings facing <br /> <br /> <br /> East and West. This condition creates an unequal distribution of daylight. In this <br /> <br /> <br /> study, the practice room is optimized to increase spatial daylight autonomy <br /> <br /> <br /> (sDA300lux,50%) and decrease annual sunlight exposure (ASE). Optimization is <br /> <br /> <br /> done by adding daylight transport system in the form of light shelf and is varied <br /> <br /> <br /> based on parametric modelling concept. Parametric modelling is simulated using <br /> <br /> <br /> DIVA-for-Rhino and Grasshopper software. Optimization will select the best <br /> <br /> <br /> results from light shelf parameter that has been simulated using the genetic <br /> <br /> <br /> algorithm method in Octopus software. The results of optimization show that the <br /> <br /> <br /> value of (sDA&#8722;ASE) is increased by 4.9% compared to the actual condition and <br /> <br /> <br /> there is difference in light shelf’s parameter between West and East building <br /> <br /> <br /> orientation by 10 cm on internal length and 15° on external angle.
