21 Acoustical: Audience Holding Area Large crowd gathers Exposed ceiling and columns Hardwood floors 2nd floor open office space South main corridor East shops West vacant

22 Acoustical: Transmission Loss NC level for stores, open office areas and public spaces is NC35 is adequate for libraries, private offices, classrooms, etc. - allows for these to be added in vicinity without difficulty.

23 Acoustical: Reverberation Times Too high - speech less intelligible, echoing, cave-like Too low space seems dead. Want lively and exciting. Also too much intelligibility - hear other s conversations too easily Goal level good intelligibility, home-like feel, easy communication, ideal for mingling and inducing interaction

24 Summary Lighting -Adequate illumination levels and power densities -Stimulate appetite - celebrate and mirror food - Taste Life - festive, pleasant atmosphere Acoustics -Adequate transmission loss -Perhaps add acoustical coating to ceiling to reduce reverberation times

28 Open Office Area Tasks: Professional interaction Computer/VDT tasks Handwritten tasks Goals: -Create a comfortable, professional environment -Accommodate for extensive VDT use -Avoid distracting glare -Pay careful attention to Illuminance Ratios -Provide sufficient illumination on task plane Recommended Illuminances: Horizontal: 45fc Vertical: 10fc Power Density 1.007W/ft2 < 1.5W/ft2 Average Illuminance Horizontal, Desktop: 47.65fc Vertical: 13.81fc

29 Electrical: Impact of Lighting Changes The amount of spares available in each panel are also more than adequate to accommodate the new design.

30 Electrical: Distribution Redesign -2 separate radial systems from landlord -1400A, 277/480V, 3 phase, 4 wire plus ground feeder to DP-6S on the sixth floor, feeds all the equipment on the 6th floor and mezzanine A, 277/480V, 3 phase, 4 wire plus ground, serves panel LP-3W on the 3rd floor. The 3rd floor feeder comes from the basement and feeds down to the second floor, which feeds down to the basement and then back up to the concourse - due to three separate stages of design. -Each floor - several electric closets, each serving a different area of the floor. -All 277 and 480 volt loads are served from the LP panels in each area. The 120 and 208 volt loads are served via an RP panel which is served by the LP panel in the area via a 480V // 120/208V deltawye dry type transformer.

31 Electrical: Distribution Redesign Problem - riser (B to 3 to 2 to B to C) It is difficult to find areas through which wires can be wound up the building. It is thus even more troublesome that the design had to be done as it was, as this just causes more confusion in an already messy situation. Through the revised layout the 1200A feeder that went to the third floor and caused the confusion is brought to a 1200A panel in the basement. This is a shorter distance for such a large feeder to go. The distance to the LP- 3W panel is 340 longer. Panels LP-3W, LP-2W and the UPS system are now to be fed from the new 1200A LP-B. This causes load in LP-3W to drop from 860.2A (Demand Load) to 443.7A. With an allowance for growth of 1.25 this comes to 554.6A and allows for the panel to be 600A rather than 1200A.
