Research Abstract	In this research, I established the method of measuring SHGC of a complicated shade under outdoor condition. This measuring method is applicable to the component which is not homogeneous like net curtain or bamboo blind. Moreover, it can also measure the component which has a three-dimensional structure like a fractal shade. It can also take into account the influence of the characteristic by the incidence angle of solar radiation, and sky solar radiation by examining outdoors. SHGC obtained by this measuring method is considered to be an average value over long period of time.
