Abstract

The almost total dependence on artificial lighting as an alternative to natural lighting during daytime working hours inside most educational buildings has led to the extremely high rates of electrical energy consumption and to the great negative impact on the psychology of the user by not feeling visual comfort in the spaces of these buildings and not enjoying natural light. And the natural biological difference between daylight hours and night hours.





Where the research aims to improve the quality of natural lighting within the architecture studios through an applied study on one of the existing architecture studios at the Higher Delta Institute of Engineering and Technology by conducting a comparison of standards and conditions that must be met to achieve the quality of natural lighting in three green building evaluation systems " Leadership In Energy And Environmental Design( LEED), Building Research Establishment Environment Assessment Method( BREEAM), The Green Pyramid Rating System( GPRS ) “for the natural lighting that falls under the efficiency of the internal environment, and then a questionnaire on the quality of natural lighting Within the architecture studios based at the Delta Higher Institute of Engineering and Technology in Mansoura, and based on this questionnaire, one of these studios was chosen, which was found to be the least in the quality of natural lighting, and then an applied part was made on this studio using the simulation program "Design Builder" to determine the intensity of natural lighting in the studio Then he made proposals to improve the natural lighting inside this studio, and re-test the lighting after adding the proposals through the three evaluation systems.
