Hypothesis:
The shading devices on south-facing dorm room windows of the Living Learning Center do not meet the required shading performance throughout the year.
Inquiry Questions:
What are appropriate shading requirements for the LLC?
How does the actual shade from the devices compare to these requirements at given times throughout the year?
Do residents have a positive experience of the shading devices?
Do they have lighting, heating or cooling problems?
What is the actual thermal gain from the sun at times of inadequate shading?
