Daylighting has been a part of built form throughout architectural history. Interest in usingday!ightingasa major design e1e nt has vard with the social and CCO[IO1flj forces of the time. Since 1973, interest in daylighting has increased as a result of oil embargo and the understanding that electric lighting represents a major energy consumer. Energy savings achieved through the use of daylight also translate into energy cost savings from reduced electricity consumption for lighting and cooling as well as from reduced. needs during peak demand periods in many building [ Fikry,2000J.
The objective of this paper is to explain the great importance for daylighting and the role played in design process for the building and the participation in the design from the first step which effects the designer decision for dimensions, position for the opening and the building orientation, etc... Which give the psychological comfort for building user and how to control the heat transfer throw opening by using different materials and using simulation programs which give to the designer a clear image for what will be a situation all the year around? [The Researcher].
This research consists of an introduction, abstract iti both Arabic and English. In addition to four detaile-chaptcrs as follows:
First Chapter:
An introduction show the architect historical background to deal with the daylight. Also
addressingthe problem faces the architect in choosing the openings sizes that filet daylight requirements in the space according to its uses. Then it is followed be the research objective which is achieving the design standards of the openings to achieve the sustainability objectives in the warm atmospheres using the modern techniques by using reliable renewable
resources like daylighting, the study field and boundaries which is analytical and theoretical study of the daylight and experimental study through using the simulations programs.
Research methodology consists of the theoretical and experimental approach. Eventually it shows the study results and recommendations [The Researcher].
Second Chapter:
It contains the most important definitions such as sustainability as the maintaining the present and existing recourses and wealth for the next generations and replace it with the renewable resources like solar and wind energy, the natural delighting as the sun lighting or daylighting, and its effect on the design process. Also this chapter includes the architect historical background of dealing with the daylight as well as its value, importance, the benefits provided by visual, the psychological comfort which is helpful to increase the user productivity and his passions of designing the space to achieve psychological comfort. At the end of this chapter, showing the advanced techniques used in the daylight during five years (2000-2005). These techniques are still used until now with continuous developments during the last short period. Also stating different techniques used in various buildings and helped to achieve the highest rates of daylight inside these buildings [The Researcher).
