This standard states that buildings opposite an existing habitable room window shouldprovide for a light court to the existing window that has a minimum area of 3 square metres and minimum dimension of 1 metre clear to the sky.
It also states that walls or carports more than 3 metres in height opposite an existing habitable room window should be set back from the window at least 50 per cent of the height of the new wall, if the wall is within a 55 degree arc from the centre of the existing window.
Translation: You need to allow light into your neighbour’s existing windows. In order to do this, you must provide a minimum area of 3 metres square with 1 metre clear to the sky around your neighbour’s window. This area can be calculated from either yours or your neighbour’s property.
Solution: Create courtyard and garden spaces similar to the standard before. This will allow light not only into your neighbour’s windows but also into your own. |
