THE CASE FOR STEP-BY-STEP PROCEDURES FOR CALCULATIONS IN ROADWAY LIGHTING DESIGN

A STEP-BY-STEP DESIGN PROCEDURE IS NECESARY FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SUCCESSFUL ROADWAY LIGHTING SYSTEM. THE FOLLOWING PROCEDURES HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED TO PROVIDE AN APPROACH TO A STANDARD PRACTICE FOR ROADWAY LIGHTING DESIGN. THE DESIGN TOPICS COVERED ARE SEEING TASK REQUIREMENTS; QUALITY OF ILLUMINATION; QUANTITY OF ILLUMINATION; ATMOSPHERE ENVIRONMENT; AREA DIMENSIONS; LUMINAIRE SELECTION; LUMINAIRE AMBIENT TEMPERATURE; VOLTAGE; BALLAST EFFICIENCY; LUMINAIRE COMPONENT DEPRECIATION; CHANGE IN PHYSICAL SURROUNDINGS; BURNOUTS; LAMP LUMEN DEPRECIATION; LUMINAIRE DIRT DEPRECIATION; ACCURATE LIGHT LOSS FACTOR, AND CALUCATIONS. /AUTHOR/
