Abstract:
In a building having a plurality of walls angularly related to one another and windows in said walls having at least in part a solar exposure, a shading system, comprising:a plurality of elongated, generally linearly extending elements spaced from one another forming a group of shading elements for each of said windows and having non-opaque areas between said elements for transmitting light, said elements for each window having length, width and thickness dimensions with their length dimensions in excess of their width dimensions, said elements having a slope and tilt extending in the direction of the length and width dimensions of said elements, respectively, and extending generally parallel to one another at predetermined slope and tilt angles,the slope and tilt angles of said elements being such that said elements for each window lie generally parallel to a common plane with the slope of said elements in one of said windows defining an acute angle with a horizontal plane extending through the one window, said common and horizontal planes being angularly related to one another.
