Lighting Report

Introduction
Rubidium Light has been engaged to supply environmental lighting plan ensuring compliance with the following standards
    • AS1158 – Lighting for Public Spaces
    • AS4282 – Control of the Obtrusive Effort of Outdoor Lighting
    • Noosa Council 3000cd/m2 limit on illuminated signage
    • Fuel Retailer’s Lighting Requirements

In conjunction with our supplied drawings, we will investigate each item above and demonstrate our proposed control
measures resulting in a compliant lighting plan. This plan not only meets the required standards but can ensure the
profitable running of this site and increased safety for road users.

When integrated into the fabric of the project design, good light practise and lighting control can be inexpensive and the
result impressive to all stakeholder when compared to the outcome of lighting control post construction which is always a
compromise on architectural look and “bolt-on” lighting control measures.

Please read this report in conjunction with drawings and data sheet provided.


General Exterior Lighting
We have proposed that the general exterior lighting for this project be supplied by two methods
    1. Post top luminaries for open areas.
    2. High output downlights for covered areas.

Post tops
The lighting of large exterior areas are most economically supplied by large post
top luminaries impacting a large areas and reducing the quantity required to a
minimum. However this type of lighting can provide unwanted spill outside the
property. To avoid this we have used the following control measures:
      • Mounting height of 7m which is the same total height of the proposed
           building on-site.
      • All post top luminaires are mounted on the perimeter of the site and
           project their light toward the centre of the project.
      • Selection of output and placement of fittings which allow for
           compliance with relevant standards without over lighting.
      • Selection of luminaires with strong cut-offs to the back of the fittings
                                                                                                                             rubidium
           (towards property boundary).

Downlights
The lighting of covered areas have been provided by high output LED downlights.
Typically these areas are lit to a much higher level than the surrounding hardstand and
provides safety around fuel transfer equipment and a clear path from pumps to retail
counter. Generally lighting these areas will have little impact on spill light as they are
located well within the site and will also have good light control due to their recessed
construction.
