AUDIENCE: All

This workshop will take the mystery out of basic lighting terminology and luminaire photometric reports. The course will start with a thorough treatment of the five fundamental photometric quantities: luminous intensity, luminous flux, Illuminance, exitance, and luminance. We will then learn about luminaire photometric reports using real examples. The session will close with a look at web-based resources for photometric color data. Three learning objectives include: understanding of the inter-relationships between luminous intensity, luminous flux, illuminance, exitance, and luminance; the ability to use the information presented on a typical luminaire photometric report including Luminous Intensity Summary and Diagram, Zonal Lumen Summary, Efficiency, CIE/IES Distribution Type, Shielding Angle, Spacing Criterion, Luminance Summary, and Coefficients of Utilization; and the ability to use photometric reports to make objective decisions between alternate luminaire choices.

LEVEL: General Interest
COST: $150.00/$175.00

Keynote Luncheon Included, 12:00PM-1:45PM

WORKSHOP #7

AUDIENCE: All

This workshop will provide an in-depth overview of where lighting and control systems fit within the LEED rating system and how they can be leveraged for gaining higher LEED ratings. Project management processes and procedures that are key for successful LEED projects, such as preparing documentation, working with the LEED liaison, and owner and architect coordination, will also be presented. Case studies of commercial and healthcare projects will be used to illustrate how lighting design and control strategies, bundled with daylighting, individual control, building integration and commissioning strategies can be applied for achieving higher levels of certification. Learning objectives include: LEED requirements for lighting and control systems, successful lighting and building integration design strategies for achieving higher levels of LEED certification, and project design, documentation, and management recommendations for LEED buildings.

Pre-requisites: Attendees should be familiar with basic lighting and lighting control technologies and strategies. Some knowledge of the LEED rating system may be advantageous, but is not required.

This workshop is designed to provide lighting professionals with real - world information they can use to take advantage of LED-based Solid State Lighting (SSL) today. Just as lamps on their own cannot function without a properly designed luminaire, LEDs are only a potential source of light until incorporated into an integrated system that includes power conversion, control and drive, communications, optics, LEDs, thermal management, aesthetic design and application-specific performance. Each of these areas will be addressed and brought together with case studies and examples that apply to good lighting practice. Also included will be discussion of important issues for the application of SSL such as "useful life" vs . "rated lifes", color and color measurement, photometric analysis, and certification. Three learning objectives include: understanding the components that comprise LED-based Solid State Lighting (SSL) and the importance of how they are combined into a lighting solution; knowing what issues are important to consider when specifying a SSL product or lighting solution; and learning how to apply this know ledge in the practical application of SSL technology for today's lighting.

Pre-requisite: Attendee should have an understanding of conventional lighting and its application.

Lighting controls are successful when designed, specified, and commissioned correctly. This workshop will explain the capabilities of various lighting control systems and devices and how to apply them to projects. Occupancy sensors, relays, and dimmers will be examined. Specific learning objectives include: choosing the right gear and understanding control equipment capability; applying the gear and using its capability to achieve the desired lighting function; and commissioning the gear and setting up and programming the equipment to perform the desired lighting function.

Pre-requisite: Attendee should be familiar with the language of lighting. The workshop will briefly review beginner information and focus on educating the Intermediate attendee.

The Lighting Certified (LC) credential, sponsored by a wide range of industry organizations, is offered by the National Council on Qualifications for the Lighting Professions (NCQLP), an independent certifying body. The LC recognizes practitioners who have met specific baseline standards, as measured by the LC examination. Earning an LC demonstrates to the public as well as the industry that those who are certified are able to apply fundamental lighting principle s and techniques. This workshop is interactive and includes a brief overview of NCQLP, and presentations on studying for and taking the multiple choice and simulation portions of the exam. Workshop participants will be given the opportunity to purchase the 2004 NCQLP Self-Study Guide at a discount, an added advantage to those seriously preparing to take the LC exam. The workshop is open to all who want to e valuate their lighting knowledge and are considering earning a LC credential to enhance their career opportunities.
