[Bldg-sim] 90.1 - Exterior lighting parking

Fri Aug 7 06:47:41 PDT 2015

To build on Elizabeth’s response:

If the fixtures illuminating what could be classified as “nontradable”
parking are also illuminating tradable surfaces (i.e. uncovered parking),
it is to your advantage for a LEED model to treat all parking areas as
uncovered.  GBCI would have you match wattage for those areas between
baseline/proposed cases, and you can’t “double-count” the area between
surface types.  The net result is that associated installed power is a
“dead load” on your relative savings potential.

If you are documenting installed lighting power to simply demonstrate
compliance with 90.1-2010 however (outside of a LEED project), such
non-tradable distinctions will generally help your case.  I like to avoid
more work than necessary however, and for a large exterior takeoff will
usually run the numbers first without carving out nontradable surface
distinctions.  In my experience: unless you have a lot of façade lighting
to account for, compliance can often be demonstrated with only tradable
surface allowances, and you can then just call it a day and move on to the
next thing.

Best of luck!

My interpretation is that yes, you can add it, but in most cases you
probably don't want to.  I would only dip into the non-tradable if you
can't stay under your standard tradable parking allowance, since it would
only hurt your savings otherwise.  (Non-tradable must be modeled
identically in baseline/proposed.)

Cheers,

Hello,

In a project for a 24h retail, the exterior lighting need to comply to
ASHRAE 90.1 2010 (zone 3). I’m focusing on table 9.4.3-B:

·         In tradable surfaces, there is “Uncovered Parking areas/Parking
areas and drive = 1.1 W/m2”

·         In non-tradable surfaces, there is “Parking near 24-hour retail
entrances = 800 W per Main entry”

My project has a main entry just next a 2000 m2 parking.

Does anyone know if I can add the 800 W to the 2200 W allowed for the
parking (2000 m2 x 1.1 W/m2)?

Many thanks

Julien
