1.0 Introduction 1.1

Objectives

The objective of this project is to integrate our understanding on the principle of lighting design in the context of the library in Jalan Besar. It encompasses on the artificial lighting and daylighting systems as well as the PSALI design strategies.

1.2

Site Analysis

The site of this community library design proposal is located at Jalan Besar, Klang. It is sandwiched in between two shophouses, which is an infill project. Therefore, limited amount of sunlight could penetrate into the building. The front and back faรงade treatments are designed as curtain wall with timber louvers as this allow constant lightness, transparency and visual permeability. The transparency of faรงade and interior walls promotes visual engagement which related to the design intention of the library. With the aid of utilization of natural lighting through fenestration, it enhances the spatial quality of the space. The adequate amount of sunlight entering the building reduces the use of artificial lighting. The designed community library is a library that promotes interaction between the community through the space arrangement and the programmes. In this project, we were required to propose two significant spaces for implementing the artificial and daylighting strategies (PSALI) as integral part of the design.

2.0 Lighting Analysis 2.1

Artificial lighting analysis

The lumen method is a simplified method to calculate the light level in a room. The method is a series of calculations that uses horizontal illuminance criteria to establish a uniform luminaire 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 shown as below: đ?‘ľ=

��� � � �� � ��

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 MF = Maintenance factor

L = Length W = Width Hm = mounted height of fitting above the working plane

S max = maximum horizontal spacing between fittings H m = mounted height of fitting above the working plane

Selected Space : Space A – Workshop area

The chosen space is a workshop area where people can have activities like art workshop etc. Artificial lighting is needed in this area as daylight is at its minimal point.

Daylight Factor Analysis

Daylight factor is a ratio that represents the amount of illumination available indoors relative to the illumination present outdoors at the same time under over cast skies. It is used to assess the internal natural lighting levels as perceived on the working plane or surface, in order to determine if there is sufficient natural lighting for the occupants of the space to carry out their normal duties. Daylight Factor, DF=(Ei/Eo) x 100% Where, Ei= illuminance due to daylight at a point on the indoor’s working plane Eo= Simultaneous outdoor illuminance on a horizontal plane from an unobstructed hemisphere of overcast sky

Average daylight factor may be used to assess the adequacy of daylight through the following formula: Average DF=

Where, W = area of the windows (m²) A = total area of the internal surfaces (m²) T = the glass transmittance corrected for dirt

= visible sky angle in degrees from the centre of the window

R = the average reflectance of area A

Space B – Children Play Area

The chosen space is a children play area where children can play with each other, study and make friends. Adequate sunlight penetrates into the area.

Analysis : Based on the calculations, the children play area have an average daylight factor of 8.45% and a natural illumination of 1690lux. The natural light penetrated into the space is very bright. Although, the daylight factor is high, there’s louvers that aid in blocking part of the sunlight.
