The Computer Lab
A) Type of Luminaire: Suspended and Task
B) Mounting Type: Hanging chord mount
C) Lamping: Fluorescent tubular for the suspended and Double Biaxial for the task lighting
D) Construction: Suspended lighting: Extruded aluminum with aluminum baffles
Task lighting: Cast metal with some plastic
E) Manufacturer: Suspended: Sylvania Task: UL
F) Photometrics: Suspended: Initial Lumens:2750 Mean: 2475 Lifespan: 20,000 hr Task: Lumens:900 Mean: 755 Lifespan: 10,000 hrs
G) Material and Finish: Task: glossy metal and plastic Suspended:Eggshell aluminum
H) Lensing: Both fixtures include glass.
I) Function: Suspended: Fixed Task: Adjustable

A ) Purpose of space: Student space for learning, researching, and participating in computer base projects.

B) Purpose of lighting: Task lighting, focused over traffic areas and work areas.
C) Describe the effect of each luminaire in the space: The task lighting functions as a light source over specific work spaces. The fixed lighting illuminates the traffic areas.
D) Recommendations: I would add more individual task lighting to each desk space, but other than that I think everything should stay the same.
