Project Description

  • Specifically address bookstack

lighting

  • Pre-existing controls = ON/OFF (no

dimming)

  • Projects completed in other areas of

the building left stacks mostly untouched

  • Scope: LED Fixture conversion; add
  • ccupancy & dimming capability

SLIDE 3
  • Lots of light required when occupied
  • Largely UN-occupied during open hours

(datalogging showed ~6%-9%

  • ccupancy)
  • Lights were scheduled ON for many

hours before & after library’s open hours, for custodial & staff (~3 hrs/day

  • r 1000 hrs/year)
  • On/off occupancy control not an option
  • a large section of unlit book stacks is

not a viable solution to the library staff – it looks creepy

Library Bookstacks – a unique space

Best Practices Demonstrated

  • Schedule optimization
  • Demand-based

Illumination

  • Deep Green: Fixtures &

Controls

  • Strategic sensor

placement for cost savings

  • Collaboration

Design & Planning

  • Used software simulation to aid in

fixture choice

○ Lumen levels considered at work plane as well as on the faces of bookstacks

  • Created a lighting fixture & control

capability “wish list”

○ non-OFF, but dimmed, vacant setting ○ ability to schedule changes in control settings in advance ○ sweep on* function ○ high CRI ○ visibility of books on all shelves Dialux lighting model simulation from occupant POV

Optimized Lighting Schedule:

Demand-based Illumination

  • Sweep on to

low/unoccupied level only during open hours

  • During closed hours, low

level = OFF

  • Different profiles & light

levels for different areas’ needs/use patterns

Deep Green: Fixtures & Controls

  • Financial implications
  • Design concerns - responsibility
  • Constructability and scheduling

impact consideration

  • Occupant happiness (before, during

& after project)

Longer payback project now would lead to lowest overall cost of ownership for the lifetime of the project.

Collaboration with Occupants

  • Early-on establishment of

communication flow process

  • Key occupant: facility coordinator
  • Point of contact in general, but

emphasis on reaching out to wider

  • ccupant/stakeholder group

regularly

Lessons Learned

  • Getting the ball rolling is

important

  • Collaboration with occupants

– before and AFTER is important

  • Clarity with contractor
