PLAN FOR MITIGATING GLARE
There are a several options for reducing glare for the library project. The
first would be using paint to reduce glare for general lighting. Applying
white paint to ceilings will aid in light absorption. Recessed linear luminaires
with reflectors and sun and motion sensors can be used throughout the
library to cut back on glare. Pendant luminaries with dimmers and diffusing
media can also be used. To reduce glare and provide correct lighting for
appropriate tasks, the positioning of the lights will be reviewed during the
planning phase. To reduce glare from sunlight, designers will evaluate the
situation and glare reducing products can be applied as needed.

Climate and Light: The average temperature is a high of 64 and low of 45. Sunrise is at 7:21 am and Sunset at 5:59
am.
Library Operating Hours: Weekdays 8:30am – 5:30pm. Saturday 10am – 8pm. Closed Sundays.
Weekdays the cleaning crew and some office staff arrive at 7:00am
An option to treat the skylight in the library would to apply reflective window film which can be used for both
commercial and residential structures in Jacksonville, FL. One installer of Commercial Window film is Ray’s Solar
Security. Their film helps lower energy costs with rejecting up to 79% of the solar heat. Their films not only save
energy, they help protect furnishings, drapes, carpet and woodwork from the destructive ultraviolet rays that
can cause fading. Their films block up to 99% of the sun's harmful ultraviolet rays. On the outside, a building will
have a more pleasing, unified look. On the inside, their films greatly reduce the level of glare.
OPTION TWO
A second option would be Smart Glass, which is gaining popularity as it offers the same benefits as window films
but with more versatility. Smart Glass can be applied to glass, acrylic, polycarbonate and hurricane resistant
composites. The films consist of millions of random microscopic particles which will absorb light and does not
allow light to pass until an electrical voltage is applied at which point the particles are aligned. Smart Glass can
switch from transparent to opaque in 1-3 seconds with a completely uniform change without any blotches. Smart
Glass can reduce solar heat from 57% in the clear state and up to 95% in the darkened state. It can reduce the
visible amount of light transmitted to 65% .The glass in both the clear and dark can reject up to 99.9% of harmful
UV rays. The use of Smart Glass for the library skylight would reduce heat absorption, reduce glare and save on
energy costs. Using the Smart Glass on the skylight could be manually controlled as weather and light conditions
will change quickly and drastically in Jacksonville, Florida.

DESCRIPTION: PRIME LED combines simple, soft lines with high efficiency and flexible options in a compact,
attractive luminaire. Constructed of extruded aluminum with die-cast end caps and joiners, PRIME
LED offers a uniformly luminous, attractive linear profile. Pendant, ceiling or wall mounting, as well
as a wide range of electrical options, permits PRIME LED to be used both in large spaces and
smaller areas, such as corridors and bathrooms.Boasting efficiencies over 70%, PRIME LED
offers an effective means to deliver pleasing illumination from a minimal form. IC Controls equip a
PRIME LED system to reduce energy consumption still further.

DESCRIPTION: DIA LED defines what lighting users and specifiers value most: generous and comfortable
brightness; energy efficiency; clean, crisp appearance, and flexible options. Using our VL optic™,
DIA LED provides softly diffused brightness for a high degree of visual comfort. The precise center
refractor minimizes glare and led image; translucent side panels offer a gentle luminosity.
Integrated Controls enable a DIA LED system to reduce energy consumption still further.
DIA LED’s simple lines and modulated textures offer a distinctive, architectural aesthetic that
integrates well in contemporary spaces.

The library project posed several lighting design challenges due to the multiple, separate task areas and large open
vestibule. The different spaces required different lighting solutions, while maintaining an efficient and cohesive
design. To analyze the different lighting layers for each space at the beginning was very helpful. It created an overall
idea for the whole project. The biggest issue was researching and finding the proper lights to fit within the current
design. Then the next issue was where to place each light. I tried to maintain a similar pattern as the current
design, and just added updated lights to make the spaces brighter. The whole project was a great learning
experience. Now, I found myself looking at lighting of different spaces around me. I will be doing more researching
of different lights and keeping a folder of different lighting companies.
