CRITICAL DESIGN ISSUES:
Direct Glare: Always avoid direct glare, even in areas that are occupied
briefly. In the case of hallways, low brightness luminaires create a soft
ambient lighting environment for wayfinding without the annoyance of direct
glare.
Horizontal and Vertical Illuminance: Adequate light levels need to be
provided for safety in hallways. With low brightness luminaires and uniform
surface brightness in the space, these light levels can be low relative to
adjacent spaces.
Target Horizontal Illuminance ( 10%): 30 lux (3 fc)
