Your Design Journal entries this week should highlight your design thinking and process in modelling:

  • your power system elements
    • I added a Lighting and Appliance Panelboard - 208V MCB - Surface and changed it to 400 A
    • I added receptacles roughly 6 feet apart from each other on all walls to offer flexibility. I then connected these into circuits by room and connected them to my panel.
    • I then highlighted the circuits to show the wires

  • your lighting system elements
    • I added Downlight - Strip 48” - 120V to most of the buildign and then added Troffer Light - 2x4 Parabolic 2’x4’ (2 Lamp) - 120V to the education space
    • I then connected these to single light switches in each room and connected those back to the panel
    • I added wires to each of the rooms

Lighting analysis

  • Based on the lighting analysis, there is good lighting throughout the building especially in the education room. The gift shop has ample lighting. The areas that are dark are restrooms, closets and corners of the atrium, which do not need much lighting for operation. In the space schedule below.

  • These values are all in accordance with the values needed for the spaces listed.
