Reports:
Each testing project is accompanied by some form of information transfer and report of the test results. The depth and format of each report varies according to test type, project specifics and client needs and is established at the beginning of the project. Heliodon testing usually includes copies of the digital images captured during the test as well as a printed report or poster that organizes the images to reflect chronology and briefly discusses the context and bounds of the study and its summary findings. Artificial Sky, Outdoor and Digital Simulation testing typically result in a report describing the testing process and providing the measured data in tabular and graphic isolux diagrams overlaid on top of building space floor plans. Testing images and summary observations are also included.
Analysis/Design Consultation:
Occasionally, after an initial test, a client discovers the need for design alterations and the retest of a reworked design. CERES staff can provide design consultation to help the designer improve the design's daylighting performance. These services are specialized, project dependant and are structured, scheduled, negotiated and priced on a case-by-case basis.
