Abstract :
This research aims to investigate the state of the optical visual comfort (OVC) of the Qazaqkhaneh mansion according to the standards required for its former and current applications. Since this mansion, as the first office building in Tehran, has found an educational use today, these questions are raised: From the POV of the LEED V.4 Option 1 accreditation certificate, what is the status of the sDA and ASE indicators in this building? And are the OVC of this building suitable for office and educational uses? The method of this research is descriptive-analytical with the use of simulation. In order to evaluate the OVC, the indicators of (sDA) and (ASE) have been investigated in the mentioned building. Modeling was done by DesignBuilder and the results were analyzed in the form of LEED V.4 Option 1 accreditation certificate. According to this certificate, the OVC conditions for office and educational applications in this building have not been met.
