Description: For use by architects and engineers, the Solar Radiation Data Manual for Buildings provides solar resources information for common window orientations for the United States and its territories. This information was modeled using solar radiation and meteorological data gathered from 1961 to 1990 and will permit quick evaluations of passive solar and daylighting features for buildings.
