The document provides details on the lighting design for an urban infill library project. It includes:
1) A site analysis showing sun path diagrams and how sunlight will affect different areas at different times of day. Louvered facades and overhangs are proposed to control sunlight.
2) Daylight factor calculations for a third floor young adult library and fourth floor reading room, finding the young adult area is "extremely bright" and reading room "dark".
3) Artificial lighting calculations using the lumen method to determine the number and layout of LED pendant and linear strip lights needed to meet illumination standards.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

1.1 Objective
The primary objective of this project is to integrate the principles of lighting
requirement into design of suggested context, which requires to build an urban infill
library in Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman. Other than encompasses on daylighting system
to the library, artificial system and the implement of PSALI design strategies is also
something have to look into. The objective of the projects is also to show something
have to look into. The objective of the projects is also to show understanding of lighting
system in order to solve design problems in relation to sustainability of lighting system
in order to solve design problems in relation to sustainability issues.

The back facade will be installed with sun screening louvered facade system to reduce
the direct light into the spaces to prevent user discomfort.

At this hour, the incident sunlight is coming mainly from the top of the west direction,
affected spaces will be private reading area on the second floor and discussion rooms on
the first floor, this tissue is tackled and resolved by having overhang roof to shadow over
the spaces stated. Louvers sun screen will be installed for the front facade to reduce the
damage of the sunlight to the book collections on the second and third floor.

Time : 6pm
Weather : Sunny
The site is east-west facing and west evening sunlight will bring discomfort to the users
using the front spaces. It is crucial to provide sun shading devices to reduce the direct
penetration of the evening light. Louvers sun screening facade system and more
plantation will be used to diffuse the light and prevent the light from directly entering
these spaces. Public reading zone should not have too much glare of lights in the space.

2.1 Daylight factor analysis
Daylight factor is defined as the ratio of interior illuminance, Ei to available outdoor
illuminance, Eo which is the unobstructed horizontal exterior illuminance:
DF =
!" #$%&&' #))*+,$-$./
!0 1*2%&&' #))*+,$-$./
𝑥 100%
Image 2.1.1 Daylight factors and distribution (Department of standards Malaysia,2007).
The daylight factor concept is applicable only when the sky illuminance distribution is
known or can reasonably be estimated. In this case study, the average outdoor
illuminance in Malaysia is assumed according to the standard which is 20000 lux (refer
to Table 2.1.2).
Image 2.1.2 Daylight intensity at different condition.
Zone DF (%) Distribution
Very bright >6 Large (including thermal and glare problem)
Bright 3-6 Good
Average 1-3 Fair
Dark 0-1 Poor
Luminance Level (lux) Example
120,000 Brightest sunlight
110,000 Bright sunlight
20,000 Shade illuminated by entire clear blue sky, midday
1000-2000 Typical overcast day, midday
400 Sunrise / sunset on clear day (ambient illumination)
<200 Extreme of darkest storm clouds, midday
40 Fully overcast, sunrise / sunset
<1 Extreme of darkest storm cloud, sunrise / sunset

In side-lit rooms, the maximum DF is near the windows, and it is mainly due to the sky
component. In the early stages of building design, the average daylight factor may be
used to assess the adequacy of daylight:

2.2 Artificial Lighting Analysis
Lumen Method
Lumen method is used to calculate the light level in a room. It is a series of calculation
that uses horizontal luminance criteria to establish a uniform layout in a space. It can be
calculated by dividing the total number of lumens available in a space by the area of the
space. The calculation is below:
E =
$ L M L N L ON L PPN
8
Where,
E = Average illuminance to cover the space
n = Number of lamps of each luminaire
N = Number of luminance
F = Lighting design lumens per lamp, i.e. Initial bare lamp luminous
UF = Utilization factor for the horizontal working plane
LLF = Light loss factor
A = Area of the horizontal working plane
Lumen method can be also calculated and used to determine the number of lights should
be installed on the site. To know the number of lamps, calculation of total luminance of
the space need to be done based on the number of fixtures and examine the sufficiency
of light fixtures on that particular space.
N =
! L 8
N L ON L QN
Where,
N = Number of lamps required
E = Illuminance level required (Lux)
A = Area at working plane height (m2
)
F = Average luminous flux from each lamp (lm)
UF = Utilization factor, an allowance for light distribution of the luminaire and the
room surfaces
MF = Maintenance factor, an allowance for reduced light output because of
deterioration and dirt
16. 16
Room Index
Room Index, RI, is the ratio of room plan area to half wall area between the working and
luminaire planes, which can be calculated by:
RI =
P L 7
RS L (PB7)
Where,
L = Length of room
W = Width of room
Hm = Mounting height, the vertical distance between the working plane and the
luminaire
Light Loss Factor
Light loss factor is need to be considered when calculate Lumen Method. It is allowing
forecasting the performance of the system over a given lifetime to meet the minimum
light standards it helps minimize the reliability of system has been planned and designed
for future operation. The calculation for light loss factor is as below:
RI =
P L 7
RS L (PB7)
Where,
LLD = Lamp lumen depreciation
LDD = Luminaire dirt depreciation
ATF = Ambient temperature effects
HE = Heat extraction
VE = Voltage effects
BF = Driver and lamps factors
CD = Component depreciation
