The presentation is intended to give an insight into the overall project and the technical challenges associated with the £3.7million electrical and lighting refurbishment contract at Erskine Bridge:
As an introduction Louis will provide some background into the project and justification for the decision to go ahead with the LED replacement and inclusion of the CMS system.
He will then highlight some of the technical challenges which had to be addressed, the solutions which were developed, and explain the reasoning behind some of the decisions taken. This will include elements of the DSEAR Regulations and the need to consider the internal bridge structure as a hazardous area. He will also discuss elements of the buildability issues which were encountered and the development of bespoke products (column baseplates, Aircraft Navigation Lights etc.) which had to integrate with the existing bridge structure and the importance of consideration of safe methods of working at the design and planning stage, and the benefits of implementing these methods when it came to construction stage.
Louis will then describe and discuss the various elements of the construction and handover phases, leading to successful completion of the project.

Amey PLC has recently completed the core investment programme for Sheffield PFI.
One of the challenges for Amey was the inclusion of about 30 famous listed sewer lanterns and lighting columns distributed throughout the city that were in varying stages of decay. Not only were the columns listed but the residents were fiercely protective of their architectural history and in some cases, had taken charge of the asset themselves.
So, what’s the problem then? Replacement lanterns and a lick of paint should do the trick.
Unfortunately, there was no available electrical supply to most of the columns as most of them were connected to the gas grid, about three still worked.
Though the lighting designs did not rely on the sewer lanterns for light distribution, some vociferous residents had been misinformed that they were going to be replaced with modern LED lanterns and naturally were very concerned as to their impact on the environment.
The costs and associated disruption of connecting electricity supplies to some architecturally sensitive areas together with gas supply company’s concerns in maintaining a safe supply on the street meant an innovative approach had to be taken. This project was originally given to the Electrical Engineering faculty of Sheffield University who were unable to develop a workable solution. Jonathan Skill of Amey then approached Pudsey Diamond Engineering Ltd to see whether their recently solar bollard technology could be adapted and incorporated into the sewer gas lantern to allow the lanterns to be in light.
This was a very significant challenge. English Heritage were concerned that the exterior of the lanterns were not to be altered and further, the lanterns were to be reworked where possible, repaired and not replaced with replicas.
The authors of this paper will explore the significant challenges presented with the audience and demonstrate how leading edge technology of 3D printed gas mantles combined with LED modules driven from innovative and unique solar capture units with energy storage using lithium iron batteries within the lantern allowed this project to be delivered to the satisfaction of English Heritage and the residents of Sheffield.

Newport Bridge is a striking structure and exceptional piece of architecture located in the North East of England linking Stockton-on-Tees with Middlesbrough. This historic vertical-lift bridge has a complex steel construction dominating the industrial skyline, each viewpoint offers something new but always imposing. A recent refurbishment provided the opportunity to illuminate its extraordinary design features, highlighting its scale and complexity whilst celebrating early 20th century British engineering.
The Grade II* listed structure offered many design challenges including non-invasive installation methods, but also minimising impact to the adjacent waterway, and other key stakeholders.
The case study for the recently installed LED feature lighting covers all aspects of the project from concept design, through trialling and demonstration, detailed lighting/electrical design into installation and final commissioning.

Copper alloy conductors for overhead lines - Nordic Conference on Electricity...Leonardo ENERGY
New generation of micro-alloyed copper conductors to face DSOs challenges
Distribution network operators are facing substantial and often contradictory challenges. A highly variable renewable energy supply and an increased focus on energy efficiency require the reinforcement of the grid. However, resistance to the construction of new lines has never been higher. Micro-alloyed copper conductors can be part of the solution. Their energy efficiency and their ability to cope with temporary capacity overloads are highly valued features. Such overloads are possible due to the higher resistance of copper against creep at high temperatures. The energy efficiency of the copper conductor compensates for its higher initial cost. As a result, the life cycle cost (LCC) of the micro-alloyed copper conductor is in the same range or lower than that of a steel reinforced aluminium (ACSR) conductor. This was the finding of two feasibility studies conducted by DNV GL (KEMA). The first study examined the construction of new lines; the second investigated the refurbishment of existing lines. The latter study also demonstrated why the higher specific weight of copper compared to an ACSR conductor does not require any reinforcement of the overhead line towers. Indeed, copper’s mechanical strength makes a steel core superfluous and even more importantly, the smaller cross section combined with a hydrophobic coating, results in a much lower wind and ice load, which is a decisive factor for determining the required strength of the towers. This makes the copper conductor particularly suitable for overhead lines in cold and windy climates.

Cathodic prevention of steel rebars in concrete the international outlookSimone Tremolada
The fundamental application of " cathodic prevention " of steel reinforcement in concrete was ideated and developed by Professor Pietro Pedeferri. It was successfully applied since 1989 in Italy on Viaduct St. Nicholas I of the highway Rome - Aquila - Teramo and in 1996 in the western underbroadwalk of the Sydney Opera House. Over the past 20 years it has spread throughout the world and particularly in Northern Europe, Middle East and Australia being recognized as the most reliable technique to combat corrosion for new buildings and infrastructure where reinforced concrete is exposed to possible contamination from chlorides. This memory is a review of some of the most significant industrial cases reported in the international literature.
Durrat Al Bahrain and the NAKILAT shipyard in Qatar are two recent projects developed in the Middle East. Cathodic Prevention of West Swanson Dock in Melbourne was the largest project completed in Australia in the last decade.
Other significant experiences in China and North Africa are a sign of the vitality of this technique in the developing countries.

How do we re-think lighting in a way that has a lower impact on the environment, while still fulfilling human needs?
How do we implement our good intentions in real life?
Gladsaxe municipality needed a lighting solution that affected a nearby bat colony as little as possible, while maintain safety on the bicycle path running through a wooded area. Taking point of departure in this case, we discuss how lighting professionals should work to translate scientific research and technical knowledge into innovative site specific projects with the lowest possible environmental impact.
Talk by: Philip Jelvard and Rune Brandt Hermannsson, Light Bureau
It’s clear that the lighting industry needs to take a lead in providing solutions that both respect the environment and protect our dark skies, but how do we balance this with the differing requirements of the people who use those spaces? Whilst we focus on ‘numbers’ and provide schemes that meet the standards and minimise ecological impact does this result in spaces that may not be inclusive by design?
And how can we deliver engaging places and spaces that people love to be in?
This paper explores how technology can help support a more holistic approach that meets both needs.

Decarbonisation is one of the greatest challenges facing our generation and Distribution Network Operators (DNOs) sit at the heart of the transition to Net Zero. With millions of Electric Vehicles (EVs) charging at home, on the street and at work, often using as much power as a block of flats, DNOs will need to work with customers and stakeholders to build a smart, flexible network.
In this webinar we will examine our forecasts for the likely EV uptake, how DNOs will need to support customers wanting to connect to the electricity supply network and how innovation is helping them connect customers more quickly and cheaply.

This CPD webinar covers the need for a Circular Economy and describes an ideal one. Legislation and guides relevant to the lighting industry are outlined. Circular Design principles are examined related to luminaire design, materials, manufacturing and ecosystem. As a coda the Circular Economy is put into a wider environmental impact assessment context.
Talk by Roger Sexton, Business Development at Stoane Lighting
The drive towards delivering a Net Zero economy is ramping up and now more than ever we need to take action in all aspects of our daily lives to reach this goal. But as lighting designers, how can we make this change when essentially specifying energy using products is what we do. So where do we start when embarking on this journey and importantly how can we limit our impact on the environment when delivering lighting projects?
Kristina will present the Society of Light and Lighting's (SLL) TM66 - 'Creating a Circular Economy in the Lighting Industry' with an accompanying metric - Circular Economy Assessment Method (CEAM). This will help everyone on their journey in creating a circular economy in the lighting industry.
Presented by Kristina Allison, SLL and Lighting Designer, Atkins Global.
Alec will introduce an overview of LCRIG and its aim to deliver practical solutions to help councils achieve net zero.

Overview of technical challenges within Smart Light Concepts (SLIC) project.
In the European research project Smart Light Concepts (SLIC), researchers from Avans University of Applied Sciences and Portsmouth University explore, together with city and provincial authorities in 4 countries (Belgium, France, the Netherlands and United Kingdom), different solutions for reducing carbon emissions from public lighting.
The focus of this talk was on:
• (preliminary) results regarding energy and CO2 emissions reduction achieved by the various pilot projects
• Quantification of diminishing returns of different energy usage reduction strategies
• Differences in Public Lighting approach between different (ex) EU member states
• Technology related success & failure factors in public lighting projects
Find out more about the SLIC project here.

This presentation was presented as an ILP CPD webinar in August 2021 the recording is available at www.theilp.org.uk
The role of public lighting is twofold, it has to make the night time environment both safe and appear to be safe. This is not that straight forward as the perception of safety is not directly related to actual safety. The feeling of safety is dependent on a whole series of factors including personal history, location and time. Whilst it is clear that darkness reduces feelings of safety it is less obvious what is the best way to provide light to improve safety.
Speakers: Dr Jemima Unwin MSc PhD RIBA MSLL and Professor Peter Raynham CEng FILP FSLL MCIBSE, from UCL Institute for Environmental Design and Engineering (IEDE)

Natalie Beal is a policy planner at the Broads Authority. Both are Members of the Royal Town Planning Institute. Natalie and Paul will deliver an hour long session that will be in three parts. Firstly, an introduction to how the planning system works. They will then focus on how lighting can be influenced through the planning system. Finally, they will give a planner’s view on the 10 policy proposals from the Dark Skies APPG.
Speakers: Natalie Beal MRTPI, Broads Authority and Paul Fellows MRTPI from North York Moors.
An experienced street lighting team’s perspective -
Scotland has a strong focus on accelerating the provision of electric vehicle charging infrastructure. Data shows that outside of London, Scotland is way ahead of the rest of the UK in the provision of public charge points. So, what can be learnt from Westminster’s EV charging rollout? The process has been managed by a specific team, with technical input from the council’s street lighting team. This CPD presentation will give the street lighting team’s view of the in-column EV charging rollout in the council. Covering the expectations versus reality under current standards, the issues found following installation, and the ever-changing landscape of what can be allowed on the highway, this session will benefit every street lighting professional with an involvement in EV charging. The webinar will also include an overview of the issues to consider with rapid chargers.
Speaker: Dean Wendelborn BE(Civil) and Dip.Lighting (LET), Westminster City Council
Road Lighting Standards for Europe and beyond, a personal reflection.
Join ILP Ireland on a world tour, headlined by Nick Smith. You might think the European road lighting Standards would be applied the same way across all of Europe but that isn’t the case. This webinar will discuss how EN13201 is applied in various European countries and their thinking behind this. The webinar will then focus on America, looking at their approach to lighting design in USA and Canada; the Standards used, the design metrics and how they are applied. Next on the world tour will be Australia and New Zealand, again, looking at their Standards, the metrics and how they are applied. The final stop will be the middle east where a range of Standards are applied.
The world becoming less isolated with improved communications so designing for overseas clients will become more commonplace in future. This is a must see webinar for all those involved in lighting design.

admin building and ran out to the road through a service tunnel.
• At the north end, the supply came from a sub station at Dalnottar
Interchange
• Cables then ran up the central reserve into bridge and through the bridge
via 6No steel ducts
• Termination into 16No DB. 8No from north and 8No from south
• Admin building in south to mid-span.
• Dalnottar in North to mid-span

12. 2. Design
1. The original high mast units at the admin building were no longer required due to
removal of the tolls and were replace with standard road lighting on the verge.
2. The number of lanterns were reduced from 40No to 26No.
3. The twin bracket columns in the center reserve were replaced with opposite
columns in the verge.
4. This removed the need for replacing the central reserve barriers comply with latest
standards and don’t need double fast lane closers for maintenance.
5. All the new columns were aluminum, passively safe type, fitted with LED lanterns
and central management system.
13. 2. Design
1. The columns on the bridge deck were replaced with Aluminium columns and
required bespoke base plates.
2. Using CIE 115 and BS 5489 & BSEN 13201 we designed the scheme to M3 class
1. Minimum 1.0cd/m2 , Uo>40%
3. The electrical network no longer complied with safety standards
4. The high masts had exceeded their design service life and had to be replaced
5. The columns in the central reserve did not have sufficient clearance to allow the
barrier to deflect and operate in the correct manner, thus the new columns were
moved to the edge of carriageway
6. We looked at 8no lantern manufactures lantern and found a number of options
which would be acceptable. The final choice was proposed by the contractor
7. As per Transport Scotland standards all lanterns would be LED and controlled by
CMS.
14. 2. Design
1. We decided to split the north and south network into 2No. separate supplies each.
One unmetered for street lighting and one metered for everything else.
2. The cable calcs showed that 95mm2 4core + earth cables would be required for new
main supply cables.
3. Each circuit is about 1300m in length.
4. After undertaking a Risk Assessment and consultation with the client, the decision
was made to install a ATEX Zone 2 equipment inside the bridge deck. This minimises
the risk of explosion if there is a build up of vapour inside the bridge following fuel or
chemical spill on the bridge.
5. As outside the bridge, all lanterns were LED and furthermore had to be vibration
resistant and incorporate emergency back up.
6. The light levels inside the bridge deck are 100Lux average over the central walkway.
