Lunch and Learn

Owners look to you for products that help buildings look better longer. Greater expectations for space utilization and project design are reframing how traditional building products should contribute to the efficient use of resources and promote well-being for the occupant.

This course applies LED technology to the lighting of vertical surfaces. The course first looks at a series of applications to show how vertical illumination affects spatial brightness and perception, energy utilization and occupant comfort. We then consider lighting strategies for lighting different surfaces. Finally, we identify appropriate lighting equipment for each approach and offer guidelines for locating luminaires for effective vertical illumination.

During this presentation, we will discuss sustainability and what it means; drawing the attendee into a clear discussion of how sustainability relates to LEED, Lean Construction, Green Building, and process improvement. Inconsistencies with current specification processes related to concrete moisture as compared to the tenets of sustainability will be exposed, with clear recommendations given as to how the specifying professional can resolve these disconnects.
