Lighting Guide 15: Transport buildings
About this book
This document has been produced to assist designers working within transport environments to create effective lighting schemes that are energy efficient and enhance the passenger experience. These recommendations are aimed at those who have some experience of lighting design but need a deeper understanding of the specific requirements of transport lighting applications. It is also useful for clients commissioning designers, as the guide sets out key considerations which could form part of a working brief.Lighting design requires many factors to be taken into account, and it is therefore necessary to follow the text from start to finish, in order to understand the criteria appropriate for a particular environment, and to understand the tasks that need to be considered. Across the range of transport systems and building types covered there are fundamental issues common to all, and the majority of the guidance is provided under the heading 'General design considerations'. This should be read with reference to the specific guidance for each building type or task.The guide should be used in conjunction with the relevant British Standard for each application, which will specify the quantitative lighting requirements and the SLL Code for Lighting, which provides further information on how to interpret these recommendations and implement them in practice.
