Query
What effective SHGC should be considered for an auditorium or Theatre block that is fully covered with curtains and is air-conditioned?
Response
Windows of only non-living/service areas such as toilets, storage rooms, refuge area, etc. are exempted from SHGC compliance. All windows in regularly occupied spaces must meet the SHGC/shading requirements and Auditorium or Theater block are considered as a living space, therefore compliance has to be met for the spaces.
