lighting techniques
2reflected ceiling plans everyone has different
styles of presentation most important to
communicate information CLEARLY and
CONCISELY your lighting plan must be read and
understood by people who arent familiar with
your design
3- reflected ceiling plansguidelines
- step one
- start with the plan of a building or room with
all walls and door swings as background (in a
gray-tone or half-tone) - enables reading of the architecture without
competing with the lighting layout - add all ceiling features, overhangs, skylights,
beamsetc. that have bearing on your lighting
plan (dashed lines)

6- reflected ceiling plansguidelines
- step two
- place the furniture in each room
- cannot do a viable lighting design without
knowing where the furniture is placed - floor outlets
- chandelier installation
- dont have to pick the style or fabric, just size
and placement - selecting which walls will be used for hanging
art is also important
7- reflected ceiling plansguidelines
- step three
- add luminaires and switching to your plan
- add outlets to your plan
- remember these symbols should be most prominent
aspect of plan
8- reflected ceiling plansguidelines
- dont be stingy with the information
- be sure to provide dimensions, distances and
spacings of your luminaires with respect to
architectural elements - symbols are not drawn to scale, so it may not be
safe for installers to measure from plan - dont make professionals measure every fixture
location - show dimensions to be sure!!!
9reflected ceiling plansguidelines show
dimensions to be sure!! the more
information you provide, the fewer questions and
problems will arise during bidding and
installation phases
10reflected ceiling plansguidelines create a
library of symbols draw your luminaires using
clear and consistent lighting symbols also use
clear symbols for components such as switches,
dimmers, floor outlets, etc
11- reflected ceiling plansguidelines
- step four
- create a legend for your designmake sure each
symbol that you have used is represented in the
legend - be sure to include a symbol list or legend on the
drawing - if you have unusual luminaires, try to use a
simple symbolsimplicity saves drawing time and
less confusing

multiples of fixture types example half-circle
always represents wall sconce if you have more
than one style, designate each type with a
letter A B

symbol library on your computer building a
database will save time on future jobs
