2. To obtain the metric equivalent, multiply:
Millilambert = Footlambert x 1,076
= 960 x 1.076
= 1,032.96 millilambert %
The Watts per Square Meter
Another methods used in determining the illumination, is
‘the watts per square meter. The floor area is computed from the
outside dimensions of the building excluding open porches.
162PRINCIPLES OF ILLUMINATION
Depending upon the size of the, 100m, colors ‘of wall and
ceiling, types of lighting units, and methods of lighting used,
the watts per square meter, method may produce 50 to 100 hoe
that is approximately 5 to 10 footcandies.
1. For ittdastrial areas, twenty (20) watls per square meter
will provide an ilhimination of 100 to 150 lux which ts
approximately 10 to 15 footcandies.
2. For commercial areas, two (2) watts pet square foot or
22 watts per square meter will provide from 80 to 120
Jux whea used with standard quality equipment.
3. Forty (40) watts per square:meter will: provitle-about
200 hux that is approximately 20 fo wherein greater il-
Jumination is required.
“4. ‘Sixty (60) watts per square meter will provide about
300 Inx or approximately 30 fe usually recommended
for-many-conventional, industrial and commercial re-
quirements.
5. Eighty (80) watts per square meter will provide from
300 to 350 lux. TE cused of 350 ln, sepplensntary
lightings are necessary.
7 6-3 Coefficient of Utilization and
Maintenance Factor.
The usable Enitial footcandle’ or lux is ‘qual to the footcan-
dle produced by the coefficient of utilization (cu):
Initial’ was emphasized, because the output of the light
fixtare is reduced with time as the lamp fixture becomes dld and
dirty. Lamp output normally drops and it is tormed as Mainfe-
nance Factor (mf). And to find the average maintained illumi-
‘pation, we reduce. the. initial, illumination by the maintenance

room combination, or-how’a particular light fixture lights a par-
‘ticular room. This number is normally expressed in decimal
vahues called coefficient of utilization (cu).
‘The sable initial footcandie is-equal to the footcandle
prodiiced by the coefficient of utilization (cu).

SOLUTION
1. Lamp lumens =. maintained footeandle x area

2.” Bach 40 watt fluorescent lamp has an output of 3.200
umen, the mumber of lamps will be:
Number of lumens = 28,070

= 8.77 lamgs
3. Since there are 3 lamps for each fixure, divide:
8.27 = 2.93 say3 lamps in each fixture

Calculation involving 2 wide area is sometimes confusing
than by computing the mmber of lamp fixtures per bay or per
row which is found to be temple and interesting: This could be
done easily by using the following formula:
Number of fixtures = Miumination x area _
larnp per fixture x lumens x eu x mf
