Lighting for roads and public spaces Computer procedures for the calculation of light technical parameters for Category V and Category P lighting
Standards Australia
Specifies the computer-based procedures for the design and evaluation of Category V and Category P lighting schemes in accordance with AS/NZS 1158.1.1 and AS/NZS 1158.3.1 respectively. Includes basic formulae for relevant light technical parameters and relevant calculation fields. The hardcopy includes Programs SAA STAN and STANSHELL for Category V straight road lighting designs provided on accompanying CD ROM.
This Standard specifies the computer-based design procedures applicable to Categories V and P lighting for the calculation of light technical parameters (LTPs), as required, for the design or evaluation of road lighting in accordance with the requirements of AS/NZS 1158.1.1 and AS/NZS 1158.3.1.
It gives the basic formulae for the LTPs and the associated grid of points, (i.e. the calculation field), over which the calculation is to be made. The source code of one computer program, designated SAA STAN, together with a shell program designated STANSHELL, are given for the calculation of the LTPs for Category V lighting on straight sections of road.
This source code and shell program are available on a CD ROM provided in a pocket inside the back cover of this Standard.
Also given are general requirements for computer programs used to calculate LTPs for other road and public space elements in both Category V and P lighting, luminaire light distribution and road surface reflection input data and computer program test data.
NOTES:
1. See AS/NZS 1158.1 and AS/NZS 1158.3.1 for information on the types of road for which Category V and Category P lighting, respectively, are appropriate.
2. It is expected that persons using this Standard will have some expertise in lighting design and be familiar with the nature of computer generated data.
3. The requirements regarding the use of the program SAA STAN are described in Section 4 and other relevant information is given in Appendices A, B and C.
