Proposal

Electrical Depth
Lighting Depth
The lighting depth of this report, focuses on four key spaces within the Tower. Each space was developed from the lighting concept of how the building is breathable through nature. The concept is represented in each space by being an inhale or exhale space or both, that was developed from quantitative and qualitative criteria. The quantitative criteria is found from the IES Lighting Handbook and ASHREA 90.1 standard. The spaces that were redesigned are as follow:
Main Lobby
Prefunction + Auditorium
Cafeteria
Neighborhood
With the addition to the lighting changes, the branch circuiting of the electrical system will be modified appropriately and specific controls will be implemented. Additionally the electrical depth will include an overview of the energy usage from the electrical changes. Each of these topics will be studied for cost and benefits to determine practicality.
Acoustical Breadth
By redesigning the systems and layouts of fixtures in the auditorium, the acoustical properties will be effected as well. To ensure that the space has the correct reverberation time and any other acoustical properties, an acoustical study will be implemented. A closer look at if the fiber optics in the ceiling will have any affect will be one consideration, along with which shading system will be the best acoustically for the space. In order to perform this study, information will come from AE 309.
Construction Breadth
A cost analysis will be performed for the second breadth. With the addition and changes made to the electrical system, a cost analysis will show if these modifications will have savings in cost and also energy savings as well. Included in this analysis will be on the different shading systems that might be implemented into the auditorium. Finally, an analysis of the cost schedule will be included that will show all the changes made to this schedule, as well as the adjustments to the critical path.
