This course is no longer active. AEC Daily will not report completion information for this course.

Roof glazing products can positively affect building occupants by illuminating the interior of a space, providing views to the outside, and allowing for natural ventilation. There are many factors to be considered during the product selection process to ensure performance goals are realized. Presented in this course are roof window and skylight design and performance criteria, relevant building codes and standards, and types of roof windows and skylights and their features.

Upon completion of this course, the Learner should be able to:

  • List the ways in which building occupant exposure to daylight can positively affect human health.
  • Summarize the benefits of energy-efficient windows in terms of performance and occupant comfort.
  • Specify the appropriate energy-efficient roof glazing products by using the National Fenestration Rating Council (NFRC) label and relevant building codes, standards, and performance programs.
  • Describe common types of roof windows and skylights and their associated features, as well as product selection and placement considerations that have a direct impact on overall performance.
