This project aims to create students' understanding of the principles of lighting and acoustics in the context physical environment. It encompasses daylighting and artificial lighting systems and the strategies for internal and external noise management and room acoustics.

 

OBJECTIVE

• To understand the practical application and manual testing methods of various lighting and acoustic performance.

• To determine the key technical specifications of the different light sources, understand and observe

the differences in the technical properties. To determine the key technical specifications of the

different acoustic technical properties.

• To understand the concepts of colour rendering index and colour temperature and influences on

human perception of colour properties of objects.

• To understand the concepts of human perception of acoustic properties of objects.

 

LEARNING OUTCOMES

• Basic understanding in analysis and evaluation of artificial lighting and acoustic properties.

• Ability to compare the qualitative characteristics of the artificial lighting and acoustic properties and apply the understanding onto different architectural and interior space requirements based on functions.

 

 

TASK

This assignment is intended to be completed in a group of 5 students per group 

• Each group is required to study Light and Acoustics properties of your respective sites for integration project.

• Luxmeter and Sound level meters are to be used to tabulate and record the light and acoustic levels in the site.

• Students are required to study the following:

  - Sun path analysis of the micro site taking into              consideration the site context

     (trees, neighbouring structures, etc).                     

  - Provide sufficient data of lux levels the

      corresponds later to the design provision for 

      lighting requirement.

  - Record visual observation of the object colour

      appearance as perceived under influence of light

      sources on site. *This shall be done in description

      and digital images captured without flash.

   - Measure the lighting level at the apex of the, with       the lux-meter obtained for Project 1. *This is to

       obtain a bench marking reference, under daylight 

       condition at approximately noon, on a clear-sky day. The

      CCT shall approximately be 5000K.

  - Tabulate the site condition that can contribute to  

      sound/noise: Traffic flow, types and frequency of

      activities, materiality

  - Provide sufficient data of sound levels that

      corresponds later to the design provision for

      acoustics requirement.
