Heliodons are used primarily by architects and students of architecture. By placing a model building on the heliodon’s flat surface and making adjustments to the light/surface angle, the investigator can see how the building would look in the three-dimensional solar beam at various dates and times of day.
Tubular daylighting devices harvest sunlight and transmit it through a highly reflective tube into an interior space at the ceiling level Diagram of a light tube. Another type of device used is the light tube, also called a tubular daylighting device (TDD), which is placed into a roof and admits light to a focused area of the interior.

model-based definition: Definition of the part via a 3D CAD model rather than via a 2D engineering drawing. Drawings may be printed (plotted) from the model for reference use, but the model remains the governing legal instrument. MBP: measurement between pins: threads, splines, gears (internal, female) (synonymous with MBW) (see also MOP, MOW) MBW

The predominantly daylit auditorium of the Viipuri Municipal Library in the 1930s. The purpose of architectural lighting design is to balance the characteristics of light within a space to optimize the technical, the visual and, most recently, the non-visual components [6] of ergonomics with respect to illumination of buildings or spaces.
A schematic, or schematic diagram, is a designed representation of the elements of a system using abstract, graphic symbols rather than realistic pictures. A schematic usually omits all details that are not relevant to the key information the schematic is intended to convey, and may include oversimplified elements in order to make this essential meaning easier to grasp, as well as additional ...
Define lighting instrument information such as focus, position, color and circuiting. Have a title block and legend containing show information and information on how to identify the symbols on the plot. Show the relationship of the lighting instruments to the architecture of the space, scenic elements, and the lighting positions. [1]
