Product Description

This book gives students the understanding of basic principles of both daylighting and electrical lighting which can be applied to the development of energy conscious designs. It offers extensive information on practical concerns, such as how to avoid veiling reflections, read candlepower distribution curves, photograph illuminated models, use light meters, or plot scallop patterns of light. The new LES method for determining illumination levels for design is covered fully. The book uses many illustrations to clarify and extend the discussion of daylighting and electrical lighting design.
