1.0 Introduction The aim for this project is to be able to determine the quality of each element in the proposed space and conclude if the chosen elements are suitable.

In order to further understand the role of acoustic and lighting performance in architectural design, a space environment was analyzed based on selected case-studies. In a group of 6, we are to produce a comprehensive documentation on the various factors affecting the lighting and acoustics of the space. The information collected is to be thoroughly analyzed and presented in the form of a report. In addition, project aims to provide a firm understanding and analysis of both lighting and acoustic layouts/arrangements with the aid of various types of methods or calculation.

The analysis done at the chosen site is relevant to the present construction industry. With that said, students are able to further evaluate and explore using current materials and technology that affect the quality of lighting and acoustics in the space.

1.1 Introduction to Site

SUNWAY UNIVERSITY

Figure 1.1.1 Location plan of Garage51 Standing out on a street of auto workshops, Garage 51 can be easily distinguished by its exterior of splashed fever-dream work and its unique interior. The cafe is at located at Jalan PJS11/9, neighboring Monash University and Sunway college campus. Garage 51 has just recently been established with intention of bringing Melbourne-flavored cafĂŠ culture to Malaysian suburb. During operational hours, the cafĂŠ is filled with a majority of students. The vibrant atmosphere and close-

With a concept of industrialist design, most of the materials used were left raw with minimum finishes.

Garage 51 is at a two-story height, combining level 2 seats - situated above the café’s kitchen into one atmosphere with the other one below. This counteracts the narrow space the café has. One would say the glass façade on north elevation also assists the café poky weakness, which widely spanned not just merely for aesthetic reason. The glass façade serves as a channel for natural light, bringing a glimpse of urban life energy into the space. In addition to most of the café’s furniture found being made by re-cycled goods-turned-art, there is no question as to why the public would not be attracted to this café.

Precedent Studies

2.1

Lighting Study: Comparison of LED and fluorescent lighting in a meeting room

2.1.1 Introduction Place: Finland (Espoo) Building Type : Office Building This precedent study shows the study between the effectiveness of two different lighting source by comparing the results through a few studies with the first lighting source being LED and the other fluorescent lighting. The study is done in Meeting room 271, located in Otakaari 7 and is part of Aalto University’s Lighting unit. Size of the meeting room is 7m x 4.7m x 2.7m.

The room contains 6 fluorescent luminaries and 2 LED luminaries. Both of these are recessed ceiling luminaries. It is also possible to utilize daylight in the room, but for this case study, daylight capabilities were removed.

Luminaries:

Table 2.1.1 Luminaries installation specifications The most notable thing about the luminaries specifications is that LED luminaries’ luminous efficacy increased with dimming. Fluorescent luminaries had better luminous efficacy than LEDs.

2.2 Method of Analysis and Analysis Table Illuminance, luminance and UGR values of the lighting installations were measured.

Philips Indolight FL luminaries were measured using only full power but Greenflux LED luminaries were measured in addition using preset dimming level (dim = 55.5%) fluorescent and LED measurements cases were different, because fluorescent luminaries covered the whole meeting room but LEDs only the working area. Therefore the results are not fully comparable.

9|Page

Table 2.2. Measured illuminance levels

Flourescent luminaries gave much more light than LEDs but this is mainly because of the larger amount of luminaries used in the fluorescent installation. LED luminaries used less W/100 1x as can be seen in Table 2.2

10 | P a g e

Table 2.2.1 Measured Luminance Levels Luminance levels of the meeting room were lower with LED lighting than with fluorescent lighting. This was mainly due to smaller amount of LED luminaries and also much less power was used for the LED lighting. Electrical power density was 11.43 W/m2 for fluorescent luminaries and 3.71 W/m2 – 1.65 W/m2 for the LEDs, depending on the dimming level. UGR values of both installations were at about the same level.

11 | P a g e

2.3 Summary Case study showed that LED luminaries can achieve similar glare results than fluorescent luminaries, although measured LED luminaries had lower luminous efficacy than the measured fluorescent luminaire. I think this case study really showcased what kind of lighting should be used for different space to produce different results and spatial experience. We also find out the power usage for different luminaries which is very important for designers and consultants to be able to decide which lighting is able to successfully provide lighting whilst still maintaining a low power usage. Conserving power or reducing the usage of power while still allowing the building to function smoothly is always vital in achieving a great architecture. However, the study did not mention nor did it state the surrounding environment and if there were any materials that could affect the illumination of the site.

Materials plays a huge role in determining whether the site is over lighted or not and should always be taken into consideration.

Introduction

Nagata Acoustics and Frank Gehry Architects are two of the major creative designers in the world, one for sound and one for architecture. Nagata described their collaboration as “So fantastic! It is incredible.” They gradually “built a process” for collaboration in which both disciplines could achieve re-markable success to forge the optimal listening experience for classical music. The architect, Frank Gehry, envisioned the Walt Disney Concert Hall to be the “living room” for the city, where people would enjoy great music. Gehry commented on numerous visits he made to precedent halls, including Berlin, Boston the Amsterdam Concertgebuow, and others, where “direct experience was a progressive approach to the definitive intuition.”

15 | P a g e

The room volume was approximately 30,600 cubic meters for 2265 seats. This means the room air volume per seat is more than 13.5 cubic meters. This decision resulted in a ceiling height higher than many halls.

There are suggestions in the literature that 10 cubic meters per person is a reasonable design target.

Nagata’s analysis of precedent halls and rooms perceived as relatively reverberant, such as Symphony 3

Hall Boston (7.1m /seat), Vienna’s Musikvereinsaal (8.9m /seat), the Leipzig Gewandhaus (11m /seat), 3

the Birmingham Symphony Hall (11.3m /seat), and the Sapporo “Kitara” Concert Hall (12.4m /seat), led him to increase the room volume for this project.

Materials

Each row of seats is slightly higher than the previous one and wider. The hall seats 2,265 guests, RT60 of 2.2 sec, measured at 500Hz, when the hall is fully occupied. RT60 is similarly 2.0 sec at 500Hz when the hall is unoccupied due to custom made absorptive seats, “Made of steel, wood polyurethane and various fabrics for the upholstery, the chair is designed to meet acoustic requirements.

It is said that the Walt Disney concert hall has the most accurate acoustics so far, with clarity at the faintest of sounds, and never too loud.

Design

The walls and the ceiling are finished with Douglas fir, and the floor with oak. Together with curved wood ceiling, these surfaces contributes to the superb acoustics. There are parts of the wall behind the seats that are cleverly covered with transparent mesh through which sound travels and reflects off concave curves, and is therefore focused where needed. The entire venue is rich in convex and concave curves, strategically placed for focusing or scattering sound. Some reports state Walt Disney hall has up to 38,000 convex faces.

16 | P a g e

Acoustical Details

An orchestra is only as good as the hall they play in, and to that extent, a hall becomes an instrument of its orchestra.

In the building of Walt Disney Concert Hall, acoustic tests were performed on a one-tenth-scale model.

Everything had to be reduced by the same amount, which required that the frequency of sounds be increased tenfold to reduce the wavelength to a tenth of normal, and the model was filled with nitrogen to expel the oxygen and water vapor that absorb high-frequency sounds. Testing was considered dangerous since no one could breathe in the oxygen-deficient model.

The acoustical clarity of Walt Disney Concert Hall caused members of the Los Angeles Philharmonic to be both excited and anxious. Repertoire that they had learned, and knew how to play well, would have to be relearned in the new Hall.

Summary

The studies studies and design of Walt Disney concert hall, the word simplicity comes to mind. Even though it took years to make, and a top team of acousticians to get it so right, the Disney hall goes against both Musikvereinssaal and Sydney concert hall. It kept the dĂŠcor to a minimum, using its own shape of the room to do the work of redirecting sound, and it was built from inside out.

Toyota achieved what was needed to enable great sound, and then Gehry took over and did the rest with the exterior. Another measurement that Toyota did differently to other two (and many other world standard concert halls) was calculating RT60 at a lower center frequency (500Hz), presumably because classical music on the whole holds most energy around these frequencies, and therefore are the most sensitive to look out for. Many acoustical engineers base their principle primarily on the reverberation time.

Most of the times, to get this calculation right, other parts of acoustical engineering suffer, resulting in a hall that does not deliver pleasant sound. Whereas other acousticians do not strive to get the ideal reverb time if it means running short on other layers of design which could enrich and brighten the sound.

17 | P a g e

Study of architectural acoustics is very vast and comprehensive and is still improving. As we can learn from some unsuccessful acoustical architectures, sometimes there is no way to mathematically tame the behaviour of sound. Perhaps there is still an element of sound perception or experience, when we listen to music in a certain space, that no engineering or acoustic study will be able to figure how to control and reproduce. Nevertheless, the importance of acoustics cannot and must not be overlooked. An average music performance or instrument will still sound average in a well acoustically treated concert hall.

However, even the most remarkable of musicians, instruments and compositions can easily be ruined by an acoustic space that does not work in its favour. As one music critic reported upon the opening of Walt Disney Hall, embracing the importance of an accurate and clear sounding hall :

“ Salonen could hardly believe his ears. To his amazement, he discovered that there were wrong notes in the printed part of the Ravel that sit on the players’ stands. The orchestra has owned these scores for decades, but in the Chandler no conductor had ever heard the inner details well enough to notice the errors� - (Mark Swed, 2003, LA Times)

3.0 Research Methadology Research methalogy can be defined as the process used to collect information and data for the purpose of making work-based decisions. This is set symtematically to understanding whatever relevant information and issues related to the assignment and view it with a more analitical frame of mind. It is crucial for the research methadologies to be discussed before diving into the actual project as it enables us to inculcate the ability in evaluating and the appropriate usage of hard data. Through the whole data collection process, the 6 of us have successfully developed a more rational and disciplined thinking, observing the field more objectively.

The following diagram shows the sequence of our research methadology:

Zoning and gridlines done for Garage51

The figures above shows the zoning done based on different functions and conditions of lighting found in Garage51. With proper zoning, it was easier to take a more qualitative approach towards analyzing the place based on the function and its users. To provide a more accurate analysis on the affected zones, gridlines are placed. Data for both acoustics and lighting and taken in every ‘box’ drawn. With this, a more accurate result is achieved.

3.1.2 Data Collection Method Respective measurements are taken at 2 different height levels: a) On an individual’s hip level (±1m above ground level) this is the average height of an individual’s seating position. b) ±1.5m above ground level - where an average human’s ear-position rests when standing.

Figure 3.1.2 Measurements taken at two different height levels The following measuring procedures were applies on each point indicated by a grid of 2m x 2m.

This grid serves as our take on to ensuring a well distributed and accurate reading is recorded in the designated space. And as for comparisons done, the readings were taken at peak hour and non-peak hour.

22 | P a g e

3.1.3 Limitations No special skill was required to operate lux meter as it is fairly easy to obtain readings. However, we experienced several constrains/limitations that ultimately affected the readings:

Incomplete definition Different height levels of the device placement will affect the readings, different readings will be collected as each individual who operate the devices are of different heights. Shadow casted by the operator might unintentionally affect the readings.

Instrument Drift Lux meter readings fluctuates frequently when measurement is being taken due to its sensitivity.

Therefore several readings should be taken to calculate the average for each individual point.

Environmental factor Weather during site measurement would affect the readings of the lux meter. Higher lux meter readings would be obtain during sunny day and compared to rainy days.

Similar to the previous explanation, the grid function as our lead to ensure a well distributed and accurate reading is made in the designated space. And as for comparison purpose, the readings were taken and both peak and non-peak hours.

3.2.3 Limitations No specific skillset was needed to use such equipment. However, there were a number of factors and limitations which affect the readings.

Incomplete definition Different grid point placement would affect the readings, one such thing we called as human error.

Other than that, peak reading might vary due to random site circumstance.

27 | P a g e

Failure to account The data recording might vary due to inappropriate operating hours, where assumable peak and nonpeak hours do not seem to be properly utilized. For example, certain occasions which might increase the number of customers for the particular day, such as birthday event.

Environment factors Any additional external sound like raindrops and lightning strike would affect the the dB value. During rainy day, higher dB value would be obtained due to supplementary noise factor.

4.0 Lighting Analysis 4.1 Natural Lighting (Daylight) Based on observation, it can be said that certain parts of the café are illuminated by natural light during the day, more specifically the front of the store as its façade is mainly composed of tinted glass panels. The usage of these panels allow for a constant flow of natural light into the building and at the same time reduce glare and heat caused by the sunlight. The café’s outdoor receives shading from the ceiling above and the five foot way in front of the store. This results in results in a large amount of direct sunlight located on the front side of café. With this, it can be said that the thermal comfort outside is significantly less when compared to thermal comfort levels inside the café.

4.2 Artificial Lighting

As the presence of natural lighting is not sufficient to illuminate the entire café (more specifically the middle and mezzanine floor of the café), artificial lighting is used after 1pm all the way until the café’s closing time. This is to ensure customers receive a good and constant source of lighting throughout their time there. In addition, the café furniture is composed of dark and non-reflective materials such as steel and wood. This enhances the concept of Garage 51 being quite an industrial themed workshop. The artificial lighting used enhances the user experience at the same time increases the overall visual performance of the café.

4.5 Light Analysis and Calculation Zone A

Zone A is the veranda of garage 51 located at the outdoor region before the entrance. In Zone A there is a shaded outdoor space that is classified as a smoking area as well for users who request for a warmer atmosphere.

Figure 4.5.1 Garage 51 bar condition during daytime

47 | P a g e

Figure 4.5.2 Garage 51 bar condition during night time

Zone A is the only region that is constantly exposed to high amount of sunlight as well as artificial lighting during night time. During the night time it is lit by incandescent globe lamps. The average lux reading is 391.5 lux while at night, the average lux value is 68.56 lux.

As we can see from the difference in lux value, there is a distinctive difference between the daylight and the night time reading. This is due to the fact that the outdoor dining space is lit by natural light during the day and artificially lit during the night.

ZONE B

Zone B is the main dining area where customers sit, serve and eat. The only other area which has a dining area is Zone A with is an outdoor area and Zone There is a large window that spans for about 3 meters towards the right wall and is where most of the natural lighting is obtained. During daytime, the space is lit by both artificial and natural lighting for the users to enjoy their meal. This glass curtain wall is located facing the north elevation of the cafe.

There is a drastic change between the average of daytime lux reading and night time lux reading where by the difference reached 277.3 lux with the daytime being 320.4 and night time being 43.1.

This is due to the absence of natural light that was presence during the day. While at noon the interior space is being lit from both light sources, at night the interior space is only lit from 1 light source, the artificial light.

A low-built ceramic wall which functions as a table for the coffee grinders and the coffee machines is placed in between Zone C (counter) and the interior dining separating two spaces, one for the staffs and another for the diners. A study was conducted and it was proven that the average daylight lux reading in Zone C is around 60.5 lux and during night time, the value is around 17.25 lux.

Although there are not much difference in lux reading, they greatly differ in terms of qualitative experience due to the difference of light exposure at day and night.

ZONE D

ZONE D indicates where Garage 51 café kitchen is located. The space layout is inspired by the shape of a container box, similar to the whole concept of the store, linear and direct.

Positioned at the back of the café, the kitchen is the most private space in the café and only accessible by the staffs of the café. The situation of the café was shared by the owner of the café himself.

The average lux value during the afternoon is 87.2 and at night is 75.8 lux. There’s not much difference as the kitchen space is only lit by using the single artificial light that was in-built on the kitchen ceiling. Exterior lights from the dining area could also access the kitchen from the single opening of the container box but won’t do much justice onto the lighting effects.

ZONE E

Zone E serves mainly as a corridor for workers to obtain goods from the storage area located behind and also to enter the kitchen (Zone D). The stairs to the area upstairs (Zone F) which has a few tables can also be located in zone E right behind the kitchen. Additionally, the toilet located on the very end on Garage 51 can also be located in Zone E. It should also be noted that there is a large roller door that can be used to access the back alley behind Garage 51. This door is still functional and is mostly used as a gate to transfer goods like food into the storage area without accessing the front door.

Zone E is the darkest zone found in Garage 51 if compared to the other zones as it has no openings for light to penetrate into any of the zones. The kitchen which is a large container located in front of the zone also blocks almost all of the light into zone E. Moreover, although there are lighting available, lights located in this region is mostly dim even during the night. However, if the roller door is used to gain access into Garage 51 or to the alley, Zone E will be well lit significantly.

For the following lux reading, we did not obtain readings for then the roller door is opened as it happens rarely and is not opened for very long. With very limited to none natural lighting available in Zone E, the lights available in the space are turned on from morning until night. Even so, the lights are very dim. Hence, the average lux reading for both daylight and night time is somewhat similar to each other.

ZONE F

Zone F is where the upper part of the dining space is located. It is located right on top of the kitchen

Though this dining space is elevated, Zone F is still being lit with the same light sources as any other zone in Garage51. This is due to the fact that Zone F is still in the same horizon as any other zone is.

Figure 4.5.7 Zone F condition

67 | P a g e

Zone F is lighted by the natural and artificial lighting during the day. The average reading at Zone F at day is 66.2 lux while at night it drops to 62.6 lux. The daylight source factor doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t affect this space much as this space is elevated higher that the glass façade.

5.0 Acoustic calculation & Analysis

The café is located at Jalan PJS 11/9, this street is usually lively all day round as it is the center of activity for students studying in Sunway University – located opposite Garage 51.

After classes, the high number of students will bleed out from the university to the neighboring cafes around it. With this, a constant flow of business can be seen. In addition to the school, a number of car workshops can be found on the street. These workshops are open until 10pm which results in loud sounds coming from the workshop area. From observation, no noise buffering tools were spotted on site.

Noise sources play a major role in the acoustic performance of our designated café. These sources can be categorized into two types: 1. External source 2. Internal source

5.1 External noise source

Figure 5.1 External noise coming from Sunway University (located opposite the café) As the site is located on the corner of a commercial shop area, some spaces are exposed to external noises such as vehicular and site activities. The entrance of the café is placed directly across the main road of PJS 11/9, resulting in a lot of interference in terms of sound.

One way to reduce the external noise from these sources is by having more plants around.

73 | P a g e

Plants serve as a sound absorbers - which from observation lacks at this cafĂŠ. As for the external source, they too can be categorized into two types:

Figure 5.1.1

: Vehiculars traffic happening on site

During peak hour (1-3pm), most of students from Sunway University leave for home. A minor traffic jam occurs along the road. The noise affects people situated on the outdoor space of the cafĂŠ most. As for non-peak hours (7-10pm), almost no vehicular activity is seen. Besides the neighboring car workshop, there is noise affecting the space as compared to during the day.

74 | P a g e

5.2 Internal Noise factors Apart from external noise factors affecting the acoustic performance outside the building, a number of other factors also contributed to the noise level readings taken.

Speakers

Zone D (Kitchen).

Zone D is an eclosed space where the kitchen is located, it has a wide of less than 4 meters and a length of about 5. The exterior structure is made of using a container box with an opening on side that acts as entrance and another on front façade, facing the internal dining room which acts as internediate space where dishes is pass over to the servers.

Figure 4.7.D: Shows the acoustic ray diagram thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s happening on Zone D. Though zone D is an enclosed space, noises still can be heard from outside the kitchen. The container box that is made using steel material couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be said as a benefit that reflect outside noise factor from entering the space. In fact, it does the same thing to the internal noise factors. It acts as reflectance that bounce the noise ray inside the space.

6.0 Conclusion Based on the findings and analysis done, it can be said that the 6 of us have now obtained a more thorough understanding towards studying the lighting and accoustics of a space. The tasks carried out while working on our chosen case study were knowledgable as we dealt with managing our time, conducting site analysis and getting permissions from different parties so calculations and tabulations of data could be carried out with minimal interuption.

In terms of experience, we definitely gained a decent amount of it as we were able to have hands-on-experience in collecting data. In addition, we were exposed to more in-depth functions of existing softwares such as Echotect and Abobe Photoshop.

As for the current lighting conditions in Garage 51, it can be said that the existing lighting is not suitable for the users as majority of them are students who need sufficient lighting for work purposes. Openings and windows of the space are located at the side of the cafĂŠ, this results in the space being partially lighted up during the day. Artificial lightings provided result in a dim atmosphere, making it hard to study/read. However, the subtle atmosphere does benefit the overall aesthetics of the place. With this, it can be concluded that there is still room for improvement and better spatial planning to create healthier atmosphere.

Based on analysis conducted regarding the acoustic performance of the space, it can be said that Garage 51 has a bad sound performance. During peak hour, the narrow space between the seats make noises concentrated and more apparent. With this, the natural reaction of the people would be to speak louder â&#x20AC;&#x201C; this causes the space to have a higher noise level. As the materials used at Garage51 have high reflective properties, the reverberation time fluctuates and goes up to about 4 seconds.

In a nutshell, we conclude with the statement that a number of improvements can be made to make Garage 51 a more pleasant space. Although dim lighting and noise are the reasons why we would love to go back to the cafĂŠ, the comfort level of Garagae51 is definitely quiet unique on its own. This project has allowed us to obtain necessary knowledge regarding lighting and the acoustics of a space. Knowledge gained from learning the different properties of materials, different design considerations and tolerances, will definitely be of use to us in future assignments to come.
