Query

For SHGC calculation in criterion 13 (GRIHA Version 3), the northern facade is at an angle so how shall we determine the direction of the fenestration.

Solution

ECBC only provides factors for North, South, East and West. Therefore, if the window inclination is between 45 degrees NW and 45 degree NE, then it will be considered North and likewise for all other angles.
