g Light i ng Bu ilt Lighting Supply Channel A number of people may be involved in the lighting component of a project Clients Clients are the most important stakeholders in the project They have lighting requirements that must meet both functional and aesthetic goals In the initial programming phase, clients must be honest about what they want to spend on lighting, so that the design concept presented meets with their suggested budget Keeping clients informed and getting approval of submittals along the way is a necessary part of the process Designer The designer is often the primary consultant who acts as a liaison between clients and all the other people involved in the project When it comes to lighting, the designer also is responsible for: • Collecting all the information from clients regarding needs and wants and researching the appropriate fixtures • Sourcing pricing within the budget and determining suitability and availability of initial lighting choices Pricing can be received from agents or manufacturer representatives as well as retailers, depending on professional relationships, which can be unique to each design firm • Providing complete specifications and pertinent information required for the supply and installation of the lighting • Receiving, reviewing, and approving submittals provided Designers need to know what clients would like to spend on lighting during the programming phase of the project This will affect all lighting decisions to come Lighting typically is installed toward the end of the project If the designer has done his or her job correctly, the importance of lighting to the overall design has been impressed on clients In new construction and renovation, client patience and budget often have been taxed toward the end of the project It is important that they still are committed to and satisfied with the end result that the designer painted a picture of in the beginning Consultants such as engineers (electrical, mechanical, and structural), home automation specialists, ergonomists, and occupational therapists also may be engaged in a project Their involvement occurs during the design development prior to construction They work as a team with clients and designer, so that all details requiring special attention are refined by an expert in the related field In some cases, local authorities who have jurisdiction will require reports and approvals from such professionals General Contractors Once all of the drawings and specifications are complete, you are ready to engage a general contractor When you have a good set of project documents, it is easy to get cost estimates on the project, knowing you are comparing apples to apples If specifications are incomplete or confusing, pricing can be equally incomplete and confusing Once you award the project, a contract typically is drawn up between clients and the contractor Consultants should not act as contractors; typically they not carry appropriate insurances and other necessary accreditation related to construction The general contractor is the individual who hires the subtrades required for the project He or she manages the construction and closely monitors schedule, costs, and workmanship Electricians work for the general contractor and are responsible for ordering the fixtures and controls They can source any fixture but may have accounts with certain wholesalers where www.ebook777.com 257 Free ebooks ==> www.ebook777.com 258 G e t tin g L ig ht ing B uilt Free ebooks ==> www.ebook777.com Gettin g Light i ng Bu

alternate fixtures In such cases, they present the designer with a submittal to review If the original design intent is met, the designer may approve the alternate fixtures suggested Manufacturers Manufacturers are the companies that make the lighting and any supporting hardware and components Manufacturers are located all over the world It is vital that lighting is ordered in a timely fashion, since it can take up to 16 weeks for your order to arrive, depending on where it is coming from Manufacturer’s Representative A manufacturer’s representative is an individual employed by the manufacturer to promote its products to wholesalers In some cases, the representative works directly with specifiers, such as interior designers or lighting designers A manufacturer’s representative also can work directly with large home improvement retailers With no middleman involved, pricing can be less Manufacturer’s representative may have limited offerings from the manufacturers they represent, so not all pieces in a catalog may be available for purchase through this type of retailer Agents Agents are very similar to manufacturer’s representative (see Figure 16.5) Unlike a manufacturer’s representative, they are not employed by the manufacturer and typically are compensated on a commission‐based structure This allows them to be agents for multiple manufacturers An agent promotes the manufacturers’ products to wholesalers Both agents and manufacturer’s reps also promote their products to architects and designers These professionals are not sellers of the product, but they require detailed information in order to create specifications for the projects on which they are consulting Wholesalers Wholesalers carry products from numerous manufacturers They not have a showroom or carry samples for display Wholesalers may, however, decide to stock certain items offered by a manufacturer There may be a few items that they always keep in stock to meet demand, such as standard recessed downlights For some projects with tight timelines, working with a wholesaler with certain stocked items may be your only option Retailers purchase product from wholesalers Electricians and some contractors also may purchase through wholesalers, provided they have accounts They will then mark up the product and include labor in the pricing they submit to the general contractor or to the client (if they are working directly for the client) If there are any warranty issues, the wholesaler typically deals directly with the manufacturer to rectify the problem Retailer/Vendor Retailers range from small boutique lighting shops, such as seen Figure 16.6, to large home improvement box‐type stores They sell directly to consumers These businesses have showrooms displaying a lot of products, although it is only a fraction of what they have access to They also have catalogs available if what you want is not on display You can order your lighting package directly from the retailer It is helpful for clients to see what the end product will look like as well as the size and scale of the piece It is also helpful for designers to see lighting finishes, especially if they are using multiple manufacturers The showrooms Free ebooks ==> www.ebook777.com Gettin g Light i ng Bu ilt Figure 16.5 Lighting agent and designer have the different finishes available for comparison At a lighting showroom, salespeople may be able to help with lighting design Some sales associates may have received formal training You should confirm the sales associate’s qualifications prior to your visit You may have to make an appointment to get one‐on‐one attention Electricians also can purchase lighting through retailers They generally receive contract pricing and not have to pay the suggested retail price that the typical consumer, walking in off the street, would be charged www.ebook777.com 261 Free ebooks ==> www.ebook777.com 262 G e t tin g L ig ht ing B

in a more diffused and scattered way Driver An item that controls a device Like a ballast or transformer, a driver is used with the light‐emitting diode (LED) source It regulates the power supply to the fixture so that it has enough power to illuminate but not so much to cause it overheat or burn out Footcandle (fc) G Glare When bright light is directed or reflected, causing discomfort of the eye Grazing When lighting is placed in such a way that the whole surface is lit rather than having a direct light that creates a high light on one area I Illuminance Light falling on a surface or object Measured in footcandles (fc) or lux Illumination The act of lighting something Incandescent An artificial light source that uses a glowing heated wire filament to produce light Traditionally warm light has a Kelvin temperature of about 2700 to 3000 Indirect lighting Results when light bounces off a surface before illuminating a space (i.e., cove lighting) Kelvin (K) Scientific unit of

preparing meals Three‐way switch A switch that operates a fixture from two different locations: for example, a switch A set theory based on researched concepts Similar to a ballast for fluorescent lamps, a transformer regulates the incoming electrical current that is being sent to a low‐voltage lamp, such as halogen It steps the current down to a lower voltage to ensure the lamp can initially start up but not overheat once it has started U UL (Underwriters Laboratories) Independent, not‐for‐profit product safety testing and certification organization V Volt Unit of electrical force Residential voltage in the United States and in Canada is 120 volts VLT (visible light transmission) The amount of visible light that is transmitted through glazing (glass) Also referred to as VT W Warm colors In color theory, red, orange, and yellow are referred to as warm colors They often are associated with fire Wattage Unit of electrical power The energy a lamp consumes is measured in watts
