1.0 Lighting 1.1.1 Natural Lighting at Semi-Open Market Formula: Daylight Factor (DF) = (Ei/Eo) x 100% Open Market Area = 84m2 Area of Glass Windows = 25m2 Daylight Factor = (25/84) x 100% = 29.7% = 29.7 x 0.1 = 2.97% This market is a semi open market needed to have the best daylighting effect for the display unit. Thus calculation result for the daylight factor is at 2.97%, which is under the good category of having great natural lighting based on requirement of MS1525, within the range of 3-6, the space is considered having a good natural lighting.
EEi = (D x Eo)/100 Ei = (2.97 x 32000)/100 = 950lux
The standard illuminance level of semi-open market is in the range of 200-750lux. The final calculation of daylighting is 950lux, which is about 1.2 times more. This is due to the open concept of the market that receives direct sunlight during the afternoon but it is shaded by tensile fabrics throughout the day to reduce the additional lux.
MS1525 Lighting Standard
1.1.2 Natural Lighting at Restaurant Formula: Daylight Factor (DF) = (Ei/Eo) x 100% Restaurant Area = 25.25m2 Area of Glass Windows = 8m2 Daylight Factor = (8/25.25) x 100% = 31.68% = 31.68x 0.1 = 3.168%
Restaurant needs good lighting for the dramatic impact on the tone of the restaurant. And the result is 3.168%, which is under good category based on the requirements of MS1525, within the rage of 3-6. Thus this space is considered to having good natural lighting. The location of this restaurant is at the 2nd floor and facing the west direction meaning it receives the most sunlight during the afternoon period. However, during the morning, direct sunlight would not be a concern due to the coverage by the tall Maybank tower in front of it.
EEi = (DxEo)/100 Ei = (3.168x 3200)/100 =1013.76 lux
The standard illuminance level for the restaurant is in the range of 200lux. The final calculation of daylighting is 1014lux, which is 5 times more of the lux required. This is due to the fact that the restaurant has a retractable roof. The roof is only retracted during the evening therefore, it is well shaded from morning to afternoon.
MS1525 Lighting Standard
1.2 Artificial Lighting 1.2.1 Artificial Lighting at Yoga Room Yoga room is a space for relaxation and exercise which requires decent light. Hence, the choice of using High Lumen lighting and LEDs are chosen to achieve a space that will be lit up nicely and also reduce the amount of shadows created.

The sound pressure level for a shop is within 57 to 67 dB. However the reverberation time for the ground floor has exceeded the requirement which is 80dB. This is caused by the medium to heavy traffic along Jalan Tun Hs Lee during peak hour. To reduce the noice produce by the street towards the building, airwell is put on the facade of the building which acts as buffer zone. The interior of the building also have some vegetation which acts as mask noises from exterior noise.

The Yoga and Aerobics room has the reverberation time of 2.9s which does not meet the recommended standard as it average in the range of 0.8 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 1.0s. This means the reverberation time for the section needs to be reduced by at least 1.9s. Shorter reverberation time is recommended as it can reduce the echo which produces a quieter space in the yoga space. In order to meet the requirement, acoustic panel, drapes, curtains and yoga mats can be added to the space to reduce reverberation time.
