IESNYC Members to Present at Lightfair 2021 + Spotlight Events
IESNYC members Angela La Rocca, Craig Bernecker, Dan Blitzer, and IESNYC VP, Shoshanna Segal will present at the Lightfair 2021 Conference being held October 25-29 at the Javits Center in New York. IESNYC President, Megan Carroll and HLB will host “Write & Shoot to Win” at The Designery.
Following is information on IESNYC member sessions:
Computer-Aided Lighting Analysis with DIALux evo (2-Day Course)
Presented by Angela La Rocca, DIAL America Inc.
October 25, 2021 | 9:00 am – 5:00 pm
Learn DIALux evo, the free of charge all-in-one professional BIM lighting design software. We will show you how to create complex spaces and lighting design concepts for entire buildings. Create your design from scratch or based on an imported DXF/DWG or BIM-file. Create light scenes with dimming levels and changing colors. Produce professional documentation with explicit calculations and photorealistic images. The seminar also covers daylighting with façade systems and energy calculation. Session will feature practice-oriented exercises with individual support. Every participant must bring their laptop with the latest DIALux version installed.
Intermediate Lighting (2-Day Course)
Presented by Craig Bernecker, The Lighting Education Institute
October 25, 2021 | Time: 9:00 am – 5:00 pm
Assuming a fundamental knowledge of lighting science, vocabulary, and technologies, this course presents a framework for lighting design from conception to implementation. In a structured format, participants will comprehensively address design considerations, selection criteria for lamps and luminaires, and basic layout/calculation techniques, including the Lumen method, Inverse Square Law calculations, and computer analyses. The course will conclude with field measurement techniques for assessing the successful performance of a lighting system.
Evaluating Daylight Harvesting
Presented by Craig Bernecker, The Lighting Education Institute; Dan Blitzer, Practical Lighting Workshop; and Ruth Taylor, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory
October 27, 2021 | 2:00 pm – 3:30 pm
Daylight responsive lighting control is a requirement in all current standards for energy codes. The choice of how to meet those requirements is wide open. But what are the advantages, disadvantages and trade-offs of different approaches? And how well do the systems work in practice?
Using evaluations of the different daylight harvesting installations from the Living Lab in New York City, this presentation takes a practical perspective.
• What are the key environmental and design variables,
• What are the key challenges
• How do you assess the effectiveness of the installation
• How do you assess the costs and benefits
Control System Integration for Lighting and HVAC
Presented by Shoshanna Segal, Luminous Flux, LLC and Lyn Gomes, DPR Construction
October 28, 2021 | 10:00 am – 11:00 am
Significant energy savings can be achieved by turning off HVAC when spaces are unoccupied. With the ubiquity of lighting controls, facilitated by California’s Title 24-2013, turning off HVAC systems with a signal from the occupancy sensor is becoming the trendy way to save energy in advanced buildings. Inadequate detailing and specifications, poor coordination between trades, and a siloed maintenance team are some of the short-comings that can torpedo the grand vision of an integrated system. Lyn and Shoshanna will share their vastly different perspectives on integration of these systems. Expect sparks to fly in this dynamic presentation chock-full of practical advice for four different techniques to successfully implement occupancy-based ventilation on your projects.
IESNYC LIGHTFAIR SPOTLIGHT EVENTS
Write & Shoot to Win
October 27, 2021
Time: 9:15 am – 10:15 am
Location: The Designery (A brand-new networking hub) at Lightfair
Session Code: L21DS7
IESNYC and AIA NYC Collaborate at Lightfair.
Hear from the professionals behind award winning lighting projects—the copy writers, the marketeers, designers, architects and photographers — who often times collaborate on preparing the award submittal — to learn how to compose your next award submittal. The discussion will examine all the aspects with the design professionals who generally help pull a submittal together. We envision the 60 minute program to be casual, relaxed, conversational – not a monologue or lecture.
