Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SHGC): While not required per Table 402.1.1 of the IECC, the SHGC is still required data for Manual J. SHGC should be taken directly from sticker on glass. If not known, either use default as per Table 102.2(3) of the IECC or equation SHGC = 0.87 x SC (shading coefficient) under A4-5 of Manual J.
