Scope

This standard sets out specific recommendations for the lighting of multipurpose indoor sports centres in which a number of sports may be played within the same space. It does not apply to the lighting of areas dedicated to a specific sport within a multi-sport complex.
NOTES:
1. For the lighting of specific sports areas of multi-sport complexes, reference should be made to the recommendations in Part 2 of the AS 2560 series* which apply for the particular sport(s) involved. However, recommendations for certain specific sports have been included in this standard (see Clause 8.1 and Table 3) as an interim measure pending the issue of separate recommendations for the sports concerned.
2. Where multipurpose indoor sports centres are used for purposes other than sport, the lighting which is required for such purposes must be separately planned. Reference should be made to AS 1680 or other appropriate recommendations.
The recommendations of this standard apply primarily to the provision of electric lighting but some recommendations are included relating to the integration of electric lighting and daylight.
In addition to the recommendations of this standard, the general provisions of AS 2560, Part 1, should be observed, as applicable.
The standard does not include the special lighting requirements which will apply for television broadcasting (see Preface).
