PROJECT 2: ARTIFICIAL LIGHTING DESIGN LAYOUT
Work productivity will increase and end users will experience more comfortable lighting in a given area of a facility. Yet, due to a lack of lamps or the ambient lighting in the room, some areas in buildings may not have enough illumination (space). The purpose of this assignment is to give the students a grasp of the fundamentals of designing artificial lighting by using a Lumen Method calculation.
This assignment is a group assignment. We are required to complete the project with our previous assignment's group members. In this assignment, we are required to choose a building and provide its background of it in the A2 posters. Besides, We are required to provide a digital drawing of the building such as a floor plan, section plan, elevation plan, and ceiling plan. We are also required to choose an area of this building to modify the lighting design layout by using artificial lighting. Not only that, but we also need to provide the data and calculations by Lumen Method.
TASK
- To give a brief history of the chosen building and include some appropriate pictures.
- To give the sketches and drawings in the proper scales.
- To display computations using the Luminous Method.
- To write out the results on TWO (A2) size boards.
Our final chosen place: Baiduri Bank located at Brunei
REFLECTION
In this assignment, I learned some knowledge about lighting. For example, I learned that the different types of light such as ambient lighting, task lighting, accent lighting, and decorative lighting. and which is suitable for the office. Not only that, I learned what is Lumen Method and Room Index. Besides that, I also learned that the different temperatures and different colors of the light bulb will affect human health and productivity.
Not only that, I found that leadership is really important in a group assignment. I appreciated that our group leader who is responsible. He managed to get in touch with every group member and arranged the tasks for us very well. It helped us to complete the task successfully.
The most significant lesson I took away from this project is that. Last but not least, I noticed that teamwork is really important in this assignment. “ Teamwork makes the dream work. I appreciated that I met my group members, they all put 100% effort to complete their tasks except one of the members who are from semester 2.5. Not only that, but they also send their helping hand to those who have faced some problems,
