Free Webinar: Mastering the Maze of Lighting Specifications, November 28
Event Description

With so many different types of systems and requirements, how do you get what you really want from lighting controls? Lighting experts Shoshanna Segal and Carol Jones explain how designers and architects need to consider the visual environment they are creating as well as the operational characteristics of the systems being installed. These days design teams are often faced with questions about how to create system interoperability and digital integration with adjacent building systems that were not that commonplace previously. Fortunately, tools exist to articulate both the designer's intent and to guide the process to achieve that intent. The development process behind the Control Intent Narrative and the Sequence of Operations provides direction for assembling these documents. This seminar shows you how to use clear and contractually enforceable language in assembling the Control Intent Narrative and the Sequence of Operations.

The objective of this course is that at the conclusion, participants will be able to:

  • Identify the components of a clear and contractually enforceable controls specification
  • Compare the two documents addressed by ANSI/IES LP16-22, the control Intent narrative and sequence of operation
  • Describe how to switch from suggestive language to imperative language
  • Analyze how best to document control Intent and operational characteristics

      Shoshanna Segal believes in the power of light to make the world a more equitable and accessible place. She uses both the artistic and scientific sides of her brain to illuminate the spaces where people live, work, and learn because this is the way she can effect change for the greatest number of people. Years of professional practice have taught her that lighting provides opportunities to realize synergies among technology, social interaction, and commerce. Ms. Segal practices creating these synergies as a senior designer at Hartranft Lighting Design.
