Executive Summary
The following report contains an in depth analysis and redesign for the lighting and electrical
systems of the new Indianapolis International Airport. LEED rating analysis and construction cost
analysis is discussed as additional design breadth work in this report. Cost analysis is performed
on the savings and cost of reduction and addtions of equipements and architectural elements.
LEED credential assessment is performed based on modifications of two exisiting space.
The lighting design depth work has concentrated on the Exterior Departure Canopy Area, Ticket
Hall, Civic Plaza and the Passenger Concourse. They will be discussed inan order that is based
on the path sequence of how a normal passenger will experience and walk through the airport.
Design criteria, design goals and concepts are discussed, followed by a series of design
sketches, schematic design illustration, photometric calculations and photorealistic renderings.
The goals set for each space will complied to each of the design criteria issued. Daylighting
studies were performed where applicable.
The electrical design depth work has focused on the all the spaces except the Exterior Departure
Canopy area. The re-layout of several 480/208V distribution and lighting panelboards will be
performed according to the lighting modification. Retrofit of equipments such as panel boards,
and step down transformers were specified per the design condition(such as the LED fixture
additions for each space). Control and circuit diagram are then presented for each space.
After light and electrical depth work are completed, a LEED certification study will cover the
feasibility of taking the expected LEED Silver Rating to a LEED Gold rating through strategic
planning of different spaces within this airport. A cost analysis is then followed to assess if the
design strategies are beneficial to the overall construction budget.
In conclusion, an overview of the entire design process is then discussed, and re-evaluated. The
depth and breadth topics shall provide a thorough understanding to all my audience,
demonstrating that my design are aesthetically and economically feasible.

Architecture:
Architecture: The heart of the new terminal will be a circular space – reminiscent of
downtown’s Monument Circle – that also features two nearly identical
concourses A and B, which have 20 gates each. The central portion of
the terminal connecting both concourses will house baggage screening,
baggage claim, retail, and some 96 check-in counters and 18 passenger
screening checkpoints.
Building Envelope: The terminal design is dominated by its great, arched roof, which will
shelter the glass walls from the sun and collect the sun’s illumination
through its skylights. The arching will promote natural cooling by
harnessing the airflow over its surfaces and the roof surface will reflect
energy, limit heat gain and channel water for collection. The terminal is
has utilized a unitized glazed slope curtainwall system as the building
skin all around the every façade. For support, architectural steel truss
and steel tube framing are mainly used for the support of the covering
roof.
Part II
Building Systems
Electrical System: The airport features two emergency 1500kw diesel generators, as well
as an emergency navigational aids power system. Concourse and the
Terminal utilized transient voltage surge suppression design with double-
ended 480/270V transformer and 480/277V distribution service.
Mechanical System: The overall terminal features a Direct Digital Intelligent Control
Panel(DDCP) that are synchronized with dimming as well as other
programming of the electrical and mechanical system. The Concourses
each features 20 Bridge-mounted Electric Air Conditioning and Heating
units. A central heating and a central chiller plant is located on the
outskirt of the site. Additional Equipments includes: 13,000 CFM
constant volume Air Handing Units and 12,500 CFM VAV Air Handling
Units.
Transportation: Vertical and horizontal transportations are distributed throughout the two
concourse for servicing. By building the terminal in the “midfield”
between the main runways, taxiing will be cut significantly, reducing
passengers’ time spent in aircraft, as well as fuel consumption, air
pollution and noise.

Ming Norman Tsui Lighting/Electrical Option
Structural: Some 4,815 tons of asphalt and 2,433 tons of concrete from existing
pavement has been rubbleized and reused as fill for the terminal project.
The terminal is has utilized a unitized glazed slope curtain wall system as
the building skin all around the every façade. The arching roof is
supported by an array of steel tube frames, columns, and truss with
special aluminum coating spanning every 28 feet. The perimeter of the
roof is wrapped around with insulated aluminum composite panel
systems. To top it off, a 7”insulated membrane roof covers the entire
undulated roof.
Lighting: The majority of the lighting system is rated for 277V operation. The Civic
Plaza and concourse rely extensively on skylight and daylight harvesting
throughout the day. General concourse spaces lighting utilizes
downlights with compact fluorescent lamps. Certain office space has
features linear fixtures with florescent lamps. Specialty low voltage
lighting 120/12V and incandescent lighting will be used individually within
retail spaces, conference rooms and certain cafeteria spaces for accent
purposes. Exterior/entry façade flood lighting and civic plaza accent
lighting is all 277V luminaries with metal halide lamps. In compliance to
LEED, the new terminal will release the minimum amount of light
pollution to the night sky.
Construction: The construction delivery method for this building was design-bid-build.
In 2002, the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) breaks
ground on a project to relocate a portion of Interstate 70 in conjunction
with airport construction. The $187 million INDOT project includes a
dedicated I-70 interchange to serve the new airport and a new Six Points
Road at I-70 interchange. By July 2005, The Indianapolis Airport
Authority and local officials break ground on construction of the new
airport passenger terminal building. It is slated for completion by late
2008. In compliance to the new USGBC’s LEED Certification, using
regional (within a 500-mile radius) materials in the construction and local
and regional plants in the landscaping are just some of the aspects of the
project.

In August 2005, groundbreaking has occurred for the city of Indianapolis' $975 expansion of New
Indianapolis International Airport. Part of the scope includes a Mid-field Terminal that will connect
two nearly identical concourses.
The Indianapolis Airport Authority’s goals for the New Indianapolis Airport demanded that the air-
travel gateway for “The Crossroads of America” be modern, efficient and uniquely representative
of the history and future of Indiana.
Designed by the internationally renowned firm of Hellmuth, Obata + Kassabaum (HOK), the
terminal is meant to foster economic growth and make Indianapolis a clearly distinct travel
destination. It reflects the economic and cultural history of the Indianapolis area and symbolizes
its bright future, while applying newly advanced security considerations. The result is an uniquely
designed architectural structure that works with the wind, sun and takes advantage of natural
illumination
The HOK-designed project is slated for completion in late 2008. The new Indianapolis
International Airport building will include a new ticketing hall, central passenger security, baggage
claim area, administrative offices and as many as 40 gates that can collectively accommodate the
complete range of both narrow and wide-body aircraft.

Ming Norman Tsui Lighting/Electrical Option
Landside development of the Midfield Terminal will provide roadway access, utilities distribution,
vehicle parking, support facilities and commercial development areas for the terminal complex.
Airside development of the Midfield Terminal will provide aircraft gates and remote parking areas,
access to the runways and aviation support facilities.
The heart of the terminal is a circular glass enclosed space – reminiscent of Indianapolis
downtown’s Monument Circle, which will serve the functions of security, retail and food service as
well as provide space for civic activities, art gallery and public events that will breathe the
character and diversity of Indianapolis and the region.
The Indianapolis Airport Authority believes that this project will provide them with a unique
opportunity to develop more environmentally friendly buildings and facilities. The terminal is set to
incorporate the latest green practices that are considered hallmarks of sustainable development.
Operational efficiencies will be gained by incorporating energy-efficient architectural designs and
energy management systems.
The terminal’s design incorporates the latest green practices that includes a great arched roof
which will shelter the glass walls from sun and collect the sun’s illumination through it’s skylights.
The arching of the roof promotes natural cooling by harnessing the air flow over its surface and
the roof surface will reflect energy, limit heat gain and channel water for collection. Additional
energy conservation will be achieved in other ways, notably by its location. By building the
terminal in the “midfield” between the main runways, taxing will be cut significantly, reducing
passengers’ time spent in aircraft, as well as fuel consumption, air pollution and noise.

Lighting Introduction
The new Indianapolis International Airport demands a sophisticated lighting system not only will
provide a general illumination purposes, but also the aesthetical power of lighting will make or
break this beautifully designed structure. Having to take form in the shape of a bird taking flight,
this sculptural building requires a careful accent solution to highlight its smooth contour outline
without damaging the night sky condition. With more than 75% of the interior spaces having
access to daylight, views and an estimated 30 square-feet of curtain wall exposure per passenger,
daylighting plays a significant part of the lighting design depth as well.
I have structured my study in a way that will give you the identical experience of what a
passenger will experience when they are visiting this airport. This experience is following a path
sequence in the order of how someone will walk through this space. First you will arrive at the
Departure Canopy area, which will connect you to the Ticket Hall. After checking in, you are then
entering the Civic Plaza which eventually will direct you toward one of the identical Passenger
Concourses. There at the Passenger is where you’ll leave the airport, hence the experience will
be completed.
Each space is addressed with design criteria, identified problems as well as a design solution to
resolve the problem. Lighting plans, sections, calculations, illustrations and renderings are used
to support and help explain how I am bringing my ideas to reality. Daylighting was taken into
account when necessary for individual spaces that requires particular attentions. Then, proper
equipments and fixtures are specified to demonstrate my understanding of available products that
11
Ming Norman Tsui Lighting/Electrical Option
are currently out on the market. Most fixtures I am utilizing are of the latest technology such as
LED fixtures, as a reflection, to compliment the cutting edge design of the airport. Along the
process, fixtures amount are adjusted and carefully considered according to ASHRAE 90.1’s
lighting power density guideline.

Overview
The Exterior of the Indianapolis International Airport is consisted of 2 levels of traffic circulation.
The lower level is the Arrival pick up area where the upper level is the Departure drop off area.
The Departure level features a 600 feet long glass and steel canopy that not only serves as an
architectural element for aesthetic purposes, but it also provides shading for passengers from
different weather conditions. Over the Canopy is a great arched roof with elegant contours that
cantilevers nearly 60 feet out of the Curtainwall perimeter.
A plan and section below will illustrate the size and scales of this exterior perimeter.

Design Goal
To design an visually stunning exterior space with little or no upward light pollution to the night
sky environment in order to achieve a LEED Lighting Pollution credit. Secondly, appearance of
this exterior space is very important, since it is the first view contacting point from spectator’s eye,
the lighting design must announce a civic presence and lasting impression via great lighting
solution.
Design Criteria
1. Color Appearance
• Color appearance and color contrast is very important because the lighting of
this space must be well balanced for pleasing appearance as well as visibility to
roadway drivers
2. Glare
• Direct glare must be avoided for oncoming traffic approaching from the road
access since the glare might affect the drivers’ visibility to the signage at the
departure/arrival area.
3. Light Distribution
• Light distribution on surface is important because by ensuring an evenly
distributed surface would enhance the overall appearance of the space as well
as maintaining uniform illuminance for pedestrian conveyance.
4. Light Pollution/Light Trespass
• Light pollution/trespass is important, since the departure canopy is made all out
of glass, improper uplighting would project unwanted glare to sky and possibly
affect pilot’s flight visibility. Secondly, in accordance to the LEED guideline, all
light trespass issue ought to be resolved in order to achieve the credit. Hence,
all lighting candle distribution must fall within the building property and no lights
can be spilled outward into the sky.
5. Points of interest
• Via Roof uplighting, giving the structure a monumental appearance can easily
make the architecture itself a point of interest for tourist to visit.
6. Reflected Glare
• Reflected glare ought to be avoided from the curtainwall façade and glass
canopy due to the same reason as direct glare, to maintain visual comfort and
visibility to signage at the departure/arrival area for drivers and departing
passengers.
Design Concept
To reference the airport runway’s in-grade guidance lights for air crafts’ landing or take off, I have
pursued the same kind of continuity. However, for the exterior case, in addition to the roadway
lighting (which are not included as part of my exterior study), I have specified a series of light
columns which runs along the back of the Canopy, act as a guiding features for the drivers
approaching from the highway into the airport for take off(departure) or landing(arrival). As the
great arched roof goes, more than half of the existing uplight fixtures (as of Design Development
Phase), are taken out for energy and light pollution reduction purposes. Half of the downlight
fixtures originally mounted from the Canopies are taken out as well. All perimeter semi-recessed
asymmetric uplight fixtures are taken out to prevent light spilling into the night sky. All new and
16
Ming Norman Tsui Lighting/Electrical Option
remaining fixtures are re-aimed in a way so that all of the lights will fall-off within the roof, and
thus without causing light pollution. I personally submits to Helmut Jahn’s philosophy of light,
which says, “A building is luminous, not illuminated”, is a very important statement that governs
my design. I also believe that façades need not any artificially lights blasting onto its surface to
generate illumination, in addition to all the reflected glares or light pollutions and such, it simply is
not efficient and is out of date design strategy. Hence, my approach to make this terminal
luminous, is to generate illuminations from within. Utilizing interior uplights aimed at the arched
roof structure, when viewed from far away, one will get the impression of a glowing bird taking
flight.

Conclusion
With the careful aiming and shielding of uplight fixtures, no lights are spilled outside of the roof
area(see pseudo color rendering for distribution) and yet able to achieve a high contrast and
visually pleasing exterior. Energy saved is tremendous with the reduction of over 60% of exterior
fixtures. As a result, LEED Lighting Pollution credit is achieved (see Sustainable Design Breadth
Study). The result is exhilarating, a low slung structure hugging the ground, mimicked a giant
glowing bird with luminous interior taking off, blending the contour of the roof into the surrounding
landscape.

Overview
The Ticket Check-in Counter Hall is the first space one will encounter upon entering the airport
through four available vestibules. This great hall consists of four identical Ticket Counter modules,
each accompanied by an overhanging glass and steel canopy spreading 120 ft across each other.
There are a total of 96 check-in counters with extensive VDT displays. The ticket canopy
overhangs a VDT displays as well as a signage with luminaire integrated inside. On the underside
of the giant arched roof is filled with 50 linear stripes of skylights ranging in different lengths,
allowing plentiful of natural daylight and skylight entering the Ticket Hall. The skylights all
equipped with a retractable/operable shade that is fully closable at night to shield off interior
uplighting, prevent any light spills into the night sky environment. Despite the task lighting (linear
pendent downlight) are required to be turned on at all time, the curtainwall along the perimeter
also allows sufficient daylight entering the Ticket Hall during daytime, providing a naturally daylit
ambient and high enough light level for task work. Security areas are also located within the
Ticket Hall. However, per a non-disclosure agreement termed, I am not allowed to include that
into part of my lighting study nor can I discuss any details related to this secured area.

Plans and Sections below will give you a general overview of this space:
29
Ming Norman Tsui Lighting/Electrical Option
30
Ming Norman Tsui Lighting/Electrical Option
Design Goal
To design a visually pleasing Ticket Hall, utilizing the same theory, metaphoric approach to serve
as a continuation of the previous space. Secondly, utilizing interior uplights to illuminate the inside
roof ceiling, when light reflects off of the ceiling back down into the ticket hall, the ambient
brightens, and I intent to create a glowing appearance when viewed from outside.
Design Criteria
31
Ming Norman Tsui Lighting/Electrical Option
1. Quantity
• Provide ambient lighting of at least 30fc over the entire workplane for the
majority of the year under both clear and overcast skies.
2. Quality
• Use contrast ratios to add visual interest and to visually define the shape of
the roof
• Brighten dark areas of the ceiling to improve uniformity while maintaining
acceptable contrast ratios on the ceiling
• Create sparkle with instances of direct sunlight in selected areas on the
ticketing floor, perhaps on the rear limestone wall or floor openings
• Manage the contrast ratio created by the adjacency to Indy Place
3. Quality/Useability
• Minimize glare and discomfort from direct light through south-west glazing
4. Useability/Integration
• Minimize summertime solar heat gains / maximize wintertime solar heat
gains to the occupied zones and appropriately with mechanical systems
5. Integration
• Integrate skylights with structural system
6. Integration/Cost
• Minimize cost and complexity of the daylighting design
Design Adjustments
Based on my Schematic Design Report (Technical Assignment 3) and my initial proposal, I have
initiated a redesign of the Ticket Hall Canopy (see illustration below). The custom-designed ticket
canopy would ideally should morphed into a more organically shaped structure that has a tree-
like appearance in order to break free of right angles. Schreder fixtures were utilized explicitly in
this scenario. However, this idea has proven to be very expensive and not quite economical.
In addition to the redesign of the ticket hall canopy, I have also proposed to redesign the ticket
counters. My design has revised the material used for each of the ticket counter, changing them
from brushed aluminum to sandblasted or etched glass panels, backlit by dynamic color changing
LED fixtures. However, after adding in the in-grade LED uplight fixtures on the Ticket Hall floors, I
realized this solution is not only un-economical, on top of the costliness, it is not very sustainable.
These design idea will add an estimated one million dollar to the budget, adding more percentage
of high VOC material and lowering percentage of recycled and local material being utilized in the
construction. Last but not least, it has certain identified maintenance problems. Although this
design will add more visual and aesthetic coherence to the overall design idea, nonetheless, as a
practical and energy conscious lighting design student, I have decided to no longer pursue this
idea.
32
Ming Norman Tsui Lighting/Electrical Option
33
Ming Norman Tsui Lighting/Electrical Option
Design Concept
The existing ticket canopy overhangs a VDT displays as well as a signage with luminaire
integrated inside. This design has already greatly reduced the chance of having direct/reflected
glare cast to/from the glass canopy as well as glares that interferes the views toward the VDT
displays. Linear fluorescent luminaries are utilized to ensure soft shadowing as well as uniformity
of light distribution over the work plane. For the ceiling, utilizing asymmetric canopy mounted
uplights to illuminate the interior roof ceiling, when light reflects off of the ceiling back down into
the ticket hall, the ambient brightens, and it should create a glowing appearance when viewed
from outside. On the ground plane, as a continuation of previous space, instead of light columns,
I have taken the same kind of approach, same interpretation of my theme, following the same
streamlined contour, utilizing in-grade LED fixtures, to mimic the runway’s guidance lights. These
in-grade LED lights produce a very subtle yet pronounced effect of converging the path from a
massive open Ticket Hall, into one singular path that leads them toward the next stop – Civic
Plaza.

Conclusion
Most of the lighting system are preserved to the existing condition. More than half of the interior
uplight fixtures near the entrance vestibules are taken out in consideration of LEED’s Lighting
Pollution Credit (luminaires located at less than 2.5 times the mounting distance to the exterior).
The major addition are the addition of the in-grade LED luminaires. The light path results should
creates a smooth environment that gives passengers a fantasia rendezvous of the flight take off
experience. It also serves the metaphor I originally proposed, which entering the ticket hall is
entering this “glass and steel” bird, acting as the throats that channeling a wide area into a single
path, leading them toward the heart of this Bird – the Civic Plaza.
46
Ming Norman Tsui Lighting/Electrical Option
Civic Plaza
Overview
The heart of the terminal is a circular glass enclosed space – reminiscent of Indianapolis
downtown’s Monument Circle, which will serve the functions of circulation, security, retail and
food service as well as provide space for civic activities, art gallery and public events that will
breathe the character and diversity of Indianapolis and the region. Civic Plaza being the heart of
the entire airport, it is the mid-point for getting from concourse to concourse, check in to
concourse, concourse to arrival, departure to concourse…etc. 240 feet in diameter on ground, the
Civic Plaza has featured a giant circular skylight spans a diameter of nearly 200 feet, allowing
maximum daylight penetration. Branching out from the Civic Plaza, a “Connector” space which
made up of security areas on the ground floor, and offices on the two floors above, is what
connects the two Passenger Concourses. On the North and South side of the Civic Plaza, right in
front of the office curtainwall, each side featured a giant panoramic animated screen that displays
news, videos, flight announcements, and provides signage. The screens are not included as part
of my study because it is not within my scope.

Ming Norman Tsui Lighting/Electrical Option
Design Goal
To design a “Civic Garden”, minimizing solar glare discomfort from the skylight above, providing
shaded thoroughfare as well as crafting out multiple arteries (heart of the flying bird) through the
use of light and landscape planning. The lighting installation shall also serve the purpose of
guidance to retain continuity from the previous spaces.
Design Criteria
1. Glare
• The existing civic plaza has an extensive daylight system that utilizes both a high
performance curtain wall as well as a skylight dome. During daytime, even under
an overcast sky, hardly any electric lighting is required. This however, will make
the space very very bright, or even causing potential glare discomfort for certain
occupants.
2. Reflected Glare
• Possible reflected glare can also occur due to the high reflectance paint of the
surround architectural/structural elements.
1. Quantity
• Provide all ambient lighting needs
• Provide a visually comfortable, glare free and uniform space for workers and
travelers
• Maintain views out for departing occupants through the glazing system to provide a
connection to the outdoors
2. Integration - Minimize unwanted summertime heat gains
Design Concept
The existing civic plaza has an extensive daylight system that utilizes both a high performance
curtain wall as well as a skylight dome. During daytime, even under an overcast sky, little or no
electric lighting is required. Therefore, minimum amount of lighting equipment is installed in the
center of the space for the purposes of night time illumination. A custom designed indirect/spot
light pole is placed in for both ambient and accent lighting, accommodating the multi-purpose
usage of the civic plaza. This 25-foot tall light pole consist of two indirect heads on top, and 3
levels of spotlights underneath, 2 spotlights on each level. This flexible setup is intended to draw
the surroundings into a point of interest by focusing spot lights into desired locations.
To counteract with the harsh direct sun light and solar head gain, I have decided to pursue a
solution via landscape architecture planning approach. When people talk about “Green Building”
design, I decide to perform the task, to literally bring “Green” into the Civic Plaza. I will do a
massive plantation within the Civic Plaza, planting up to 40 trees that will be as tall as 30 feet,
and 70+ other shrubs that will be no taller than 5 feet. A proportion study has conducted prior to
drawing this conclusion, to ensure views are not obscured and that the trees can provide proper
shading and enhanced ventilation effect. This operation will require up to 25% of existing flooring
to be taken out, replaced with locally harvested soil in order for trees to grow. Of the trees that will
be planted, all should be harvested locally from the construction site. This way, those trees that
51

got chopped off prior to construction will be able to recover themselves back into an indoor
environment.
In addition to the massive plantation, sitting curbs and fountains that made out of locally
harvested stones are crafted into the shapes of contours that will form the arteries for the Heart of
the Airport. These sitting cubs will subtly forming paths that will regulate passengers traffic
patterns, leading them toward either the Airside Curtainwall, or toward either one of the
Passenger Concouse. In the center, the curbs are hollowed out to allow water filling in to serve as
fountains. A sandblasted panels is situated and submerged into the water, acting as a visible
divider. LED fixtures are installed on the bottom side of the curb, lighting the floor and creating an
illuminated path at night.
Lastly, a 45 feet tall cylindrical glass sculpture is custom designed to stand in the middle of the
central fountain, back-lit with either LED or cold cathode, serving as a point of interest as well as
providing signage for directions. (This design element is optional, hence lighting fixtures needed
for this glass sculpture are not included or discussed within this report)

Illuminance reading:
The above numbers are measured from an illuminance meter during a clear sky afternoon,
standing on a open concrete ground plane (in Nittany Crossing residence) as well as under a tree
that is roughly 25-ft tall. The concrete ground plane has an estimated 30% reflectance, which is
very similar to the marble floor material that is currently installed in the Civic Plaza.
The measured ratio is a very practical method of determining how much light a tree can actually
shaded off. With this errors taken into account for the ratio, we can confidently predict that by
performing massive plantation, during the brightest hour at the brightest location, we can obtain a
more comfortable environment that consist of illuminance that ranges from 30 fc to 270 fc on the
59
Ming Norman Tsui Lighting/Electrical Option
ground plane. This kind of shading can make the Civic Plaza a serene oasis under the bright hot
skylight, creating a more visually and thermally comfortable ambient.

Conclusion
By utilizing massive plantation in the Civic Plaza, we are creating an artificial nature within a
confined boundary, as I would like to call it an Urban Jungle or a Civic Garden rather than a Civic
Plaza. This area of greenery provides a breath of fresh air, lowers indoor carbon dioxides level,
provides a very organic way of shielding end-users from the harsh sunlight and glares from the
giant skylight above them. The trees can also serve as a temperature barrier, provides cooling
during summer months when direct heat gain from the skylight above and cause thermal comfort
issues. Afterall, whenever a solution is proposed, there are never only advantages, there are
potential problems and trade offs identified. Potential bug and moisture problems can occur if the
foliages are not properly maintained during humid seasons. For more details on massive
plantation and its sustainability, please see my Sustainable Design Breadth Study.
The overall lighting condition at night is satisfactory both photometrically and aesthetically, this
proven that my design concepts are a viable solution.

Overview
The Passenger Boncourse B is one of the two identical concourse that connects to the Civic
Plaza. Each concourse features 20 gates that will allow wide-body aircraft to bus. The concourse
is almost divided evenly into 3 sections: seating/waiting area on both side (low side and high side),
and the circulation area in the middle. With virtually curtainwall in almost every visible space,
plentiful of sunlight is entering the concourse throughout the day. The concourse stretches nearly
1200 feets in length and approximately 100 feet in width, it is divided into the long side and the
short side (near Civic Plaza Connector). Thanks to the modularity of the Concourse design, it is
evenly divided into 4 modular section, therefore, all studies for this space will be focused on only
one modular section.
Plans and Sections below will give you a general overview of this space:

Ming Norman Tsui Lighting/Electrical Option
Design Goal
To design a concourse that retains the continuity from the previous spaces. A fluidic concept shall
creating visual interest in this long and repetitive space, at the same time without damaging views
of both side of the Concourse. Address and resolve major glare issues due to the openness of
this space. Appropriate actions such as installing operable blinds should be performed for such
task.
Design Criteria
1. Appearance
• Appearance of space and luminaires is important that must ensure luminaires are
properly integrated into signage and not interfere with VDT displays, as well as
keeping a pleasing, non-clustered appearance. Airport concourses is a highly
stressful space to be dwell in, whether it is resulting from traveling fatigue-ness or
flight delay frustration, it is important to create a highly comfortable and visually
pleasing or at least, interesting ambience.
2. Color Appearance
• Color appearance and color contrast is very important considering that an
appropriate level of illuminance ratio should be established for the application of
task lighting while maintaining an acceptable contrast ratio for circulation.
3. Uniform Light Distribution
• Light distribution (uniformity) on surface is very important for this space because
of the extensive task application is involved.
4. Direct Glare
• Direct glare is very important and must be avoided in order to provide maximum
end user visual comfort; curtainwall must be properly shielded from direct sun
glare.
5. Reflected Glare
• Reflected glare is very important, and should avoid it from occurring on VDT
displays at check in counters as well as flight info screen areas.
6. System Control Flexibility
• System control flexibility is highly important, due to the need to constantly adjust
the light level with the outside weather or to switch between preset appearances
of the space for passenger comfort. (not included in this study)
1. Quantity
• Minimize heat gains throughout the year.
2. Quality
• Provide ambient lighting requirements of 30 fc for the perimeter zones of the
concourses. This is a 45' deep zone on the high side of the concourses and a
25' deep zone on the low side of the concourses.
• Minimize glare and large contrast ratios throughout the year.
• Provide a uniform daylight distribution, balancing with electric lighting if
necessary to create a uniform luminous environment.
3. Cost/Integration
• Minimize cost and complexity of the daylighting design while maintaining quality.
73
Ming Norman Tsui Lighting/Electrical Option
Design Concept
The existing passenger concourse has an extensive daylight system that utilizes high
performance curtain wall on both high and low side of the concourse. This curtain wall even runs
continuously throughout the long and short side of the concourse. Hence, during daytime, even
under an overcast sky, little or no electric lighting is required. However, in order to accommodate
different passenger’s need (task/rest/sleep), a flexible lighting control system is already installed,
allowing quick switching between preset scenes under different sky conditions.
Airport concourses is a highly stressful space for occupants to be dwelling in, whether it is
resulting from traveling fatigue-ness or flight delay frustration, it is important to create a highly
comfortable and visually pleasing, or at least interesting ambience in this repetitive space.
A fluidic concept that retains the continuity from the previous spaces shall creating visual interest
in this long and repetitive space, at the same time without damaging views of both side of the
Concourse. Metaphorically, the concourse is the wings of this giant bird, where it takes off.
Realistically, the wing location is matter fact, will physically take passenger off into the sky. A
wing conveys the idea of motion, dynamic and streamlined.
This brings me to my idea of installing a man-made sandblasted glass tunnel along all 4 walking
escalators. This man-made tunnel juxtapose a vertical contour into the elongated concourse, is
uplit by in-grade LED fixtures with dynamic color changing LED lamps. Color Kinetic’s iColor
Cove MX is utilized specifically for this job. This juxtaposition creates an unparallel experience of
how someone can walk through a space. The color lights symbolized dynamism and generate
visual interest out of this concourse’s monolithic appearance, no more grey aluminums columns
or silver ceilings.
Existing recessed linear fluorescent luminaries are kept in place because it achieve an indirect,
soothing ambient for the concourse waiting area. Wherever there’re task areas, linear fluorescent
pendant luminaries are utilized to ensure soft shadowing as well as uniformity of light distribution
over the task work plane. Adjustable metal halide downlights are also kept in the circulatory area
providing accent and flexibility in aiming and control.
Visual comfort also means direct/reflected glare should be avoided at all time; this means that
operable blinds will be installed, because proper shielding of the curtain wall is always the most
direct solution.
Shades Specification
• To install Motorized Multi-band shades for all the south-facing windows. The motorized
shades ought to be opaque enough to block out the harsh morning sun, reducing the
illuminance level to an acceptable and comfort level.
• To accompany the motorized shade system, the Mecho Shade’s AAC SolarTrac Window
Management Daylighting Manager System will be utilized and programmed together
along with the lighting control/dimming system.
• Mecho Shade Euroveil 6000 Series will be utilized for this particular space.
• Shade selection based on the Mecho Shade’s ShadeCloths guide on performance vs.
need.
• The new shades should not obscure views to the exterior, yet maintain as a light and airy
layer of screen that gently blocks out the sun.
74
Ming Norman Tsui Lighting/Electrical Option
• Translucency and choice of fabric is a very essential element to this addition. The
addition should not violate the architect’s original design intent of bringing the outside-in,
and submerge the inside-out.

Introduction
The electrical redesign for the Indianapolis International Airport is performed to only three of the
interior spaces. Exterior electrical study is not included in this report. While most of my spaces
are tremendously large, electrical system analysis is narrowed down to, and tightly joint with only
the redesign of its lighting system. This report is a result of changes occurred to the electrical
systems due to the modification of the existing lighting system and hence, readjustment is
needed. Since the emergency power system and the uninterruptible power system should be left
unaltered, mechanical and receptacle loads are also left unchanged to leave the overall picture
the way it was. My primary focus is on the resizing of the distribution and lighting panels based on
a primary voltage of 480/277V. Feeders will be resized and a voltage drop study will be
performed to ensure the new distribution system is a efficient addition. LED luminaires are
installed into the Passenger Concourse area, which as a result, requires a step down transformer
to accommodate its low voltage needs. A cost analysis of the additional electrical equipments is
included in my Construction Management Breadth Study.
Problem Statement
It is necessary to provide adequate power to additional lighting, following the NEC recommended
practice. After the redesign of a new panelboard layout, with spares for future expansion and
development, electrical equipments are specified according to the system demand.
Design Criteria
All electrical resizing was completed using requirements and tables from the 2002 National
Electrical Code.
Design Goals
Upon completing technical assignment 2, it was evident that there are not many options, nor is it
feasible for redesigning of the existing electrical system in this scale. Hence, I have only focused
on the lighting distribution panelboard as part of my electrical depth requirement. I will re-design
panelboard layout specifically to the addition of new lighting system, size feeders according to
load demand, perform voltage drop study, as well as specifying new required electrical equipment
such as panelboards and step down transformers. To illustrate the wiring layout, a switching and
circuiting diagram for each analyzed space will be included. The retrofitted sytem should then to
be included in the construction management breadth analysis of cost.

Conclusion
The redesign of the electrical distribution system has presented potential problems such the
length of the concourse can cause a very high value of voltage drop. However, this problem can
be easily overcome with sizing a larger wire size to achieve a reasonable voltage drop value
(within 5%). All panel boards, feeders, breakers, and transformers were resized based on this
new system. The main adjustment of this system is the addition of several step down
transformers to low voltage panels for LED lighting loads. Additional Lighting system resulted
from the redesign had very little impact on the distribution system. Changes were made
accordingly for the new lighting loads.
The redesign of my Civic Plaza lighting system has been effective. It yields a significantly lower
lighting load which allows the consolidation of distribution panels with the Ticket Hall panelboard.
A dedicated circuit is connected to each level of spotlights for flexible controls, accommodating
the Civic Plaza’s the multiple-purpose usage. For cost analysis, please refer to Construction
Management Breadth Study.

The Indianapolis International Airport has just begun its construction 8 months ago in August
2005. Although the design is finalized by the design architects, however, I do propose here that
several adjustment made in my schematic lighting design and architectural integration can
potentially help yielding more points in LEED (Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design)
certification issued by USGBC(United States Green Building Councils). The original design intent
of this airport is to become the first high-tech and sustainably built airport since the Post-911
terrorist attack period. A thorough research and analysis has been performed on the existing
condition in addition to my proposed Sustainable Design Study, in order to improve the building’s
sustainability features and achieving a higher LEED-NC(New Construction & Major Renovation)
rating.

Brief Narrative
• The airport currently is not using all the available land at the site, and is a highly
compressed development to minimize building footprint and land usage. (2,4)
• The building itself is a structural steel frame set on all local concrete with a high-
performance glass envelope. Some 4,815 tons of asphalt and 2,433 tons of concrete
from existing pavement has been rubbleized and reused as infill for the terminal project.
(11,12,13,14)
• Using regional (within a 500-mile radius) materials in the construction and local and
regional plants in the landscaping. (14)
• Materials such as adhesives, sealants, glues, concrete curing compounds, and solvents
are also closely monitored to ensure they are low-emitting VOCs (Volatile Organic
Compounds). (16,17,18)
• The project team has been proactive in certification of what wood is used on the project,
making a concerted effort to ensure that wood is taken from Forest Stewardship Council
control-managed forests. They are also working with construction managers on the
project to enforce construction waste management. (11,15)

• Inside the new terminal, recycling stations are included in the design, with one major one
in the main terminal and a smaller station in each of the two concourses. (Materials &
Resources Prequisit)
• The Mid-field Terminal will combine natural daylighting and high-efficiency systems to
significantly reduce its energy consumption. The terminal's roof, for example, has been
designed to manage storm water, to lower the amount of heat on the building and to
allow as much daylight as possible into the building. Meanwhile, designers(including
myself) are working carefully to ensure the new terminal does not release unnecessary
light pollution to the night sky. (9)
• A new two-tiered glycol recovery system will be installed beneath the ramp(arrival), which
will allow for separate collection of high- and low-concentrated stormwater runoff. The
high-concentrate runoff could be collected for recycling, while the low-concentrate would
be collected for treatment. (5)
• The savings in jet fuel for the carriers and preconditioned air at the gates will result in less
pollution. Additionally, the use of rechargeable electric tugs and other alternative fuels in
airport vehicles will provide cleaner burning fuel options. (9)
Design Criteria
To follow and meet with all the guidelines established by the United States Green Building
Council (USGBC) in order to achieve more credits for LEED certification.
Design Goals
The building currently holds an expected LEED silver rating. With the modification I put
forth, the airport will gain from the following LEED credits; hopefully I will be able to
elevate it through design excellence to a LEED Gold rating status:
Building an airport that is environmentally friendly and sustainable does not have
to mean additional cost. In some instances, the upfront cost was lower than
traditional materials or practices, and the long-term energy savings and
sustainability of the structure will benefit the airport

Lighting Pollution
Intent: Eliminate light trespass from the building and site, improve night sky access and reduce
development impact on nocturnal environments.1
Requirements: Meet or provide lower light levels and uniformity ratios than those recommended
by the Illuminating Engineering Society of North America (IESNA) Recommended Practice
Manual: Lighting for Exterior Environments (RP-33-99). Design exterior lighting such that all
exterior luminaires with more than1000 initial lamp lumens are shielded and all luminaires with
more than 3500 initial lamp lumens meet the Full Cutoff IESNA Classification. The maximum
candela value of all interior lighting shall fall within the building (not out through windows) and the
maximum candela value of all exterior lighting shall fall within property. Any luminaire within a
distance of 2.5 times its mounting height from the property boundary shall have shielding such
that no light from that luminaire crosses the property boundary.2
Solution: For exterior, by reducing the lighting fixtures to half of its original amount as of Design
Development phase, with a new set of fully shielded fixtures, new aiming angles and distribution
configurations (see Exterior Lighting Depth) that will allow all the light to fall within the property
(roof overhang), and prevent any lights shooting directly into the night sky. The perimeter
luminaires that are currently utilized to uplit the North and South façades are all taken out in order
to maintain a light-pollution-free outdoor environment. Secondly, for the curtain wall over at
landside along the Ticket Hall, interior fixtures are also specified to include a full cut off shielding,
re-aimed toward the inside roof of the Ticket Hall. Meanwhile, the operable roof blind for the
skylight will shield off any lights traveling upward into the sky, making the roof a completely night-
sky friendly enclosure.
Synergy & Tradeoffs: With the reduction of lighting fixtures outside, lower light levels cannot
achieve the same contrast level as well as the kind of accent effect that higher light levels can
produce.
Requirement: Identify the intent of the proposed innovation credit, the proposed requirements for
compliance, the proposed submittals to demonstrate compliance, and the design approach
(strategies) that might be used to meet the requirements.45

Solution: By utilizing massive plantation in the Civic Plaza, we are creating an artificial nature
within a confined boundary, as I would like to call it an Urban Jungle or a Civic Garden rather than
a Civic Plaza. This area of greenery provides a breath of fresh air, lowers indoor carbon dioxides
level, provides a very organic way of shielding end-users from the harsh sunlight and glares from
the giant skylight above them. The trees can also serve as a temperature barrier, provides
cooling during summer months when direct heat gain from the skylight above and cause thermal
comfort issues. In terms of the construction and material aspect of the massive plantation, this
action can harvest at least 10% of the trees that were chopped off prior to the construction. While
planting trees requires earth/soil to be its base, we can scrap off up to 50% of existing flooring,
replacing them with locally harvest soil can count as dematerialization, resulting in a lower cost in
construction simply because less is used. Replanting Trees can easily be qualified and yield as
an extra credit for the Construction Waste Management, Resource Reuse(1), Regional
Materials(1), Rapidly Renewable Materials(1) Category.
Synergy & Tradeoffs: Potential bug and moisture problems can occur if the foliages are not
properly maintained during humid seasons.
Conclusion
For both the Lighting Pollution solution, these particular adjustments will meet and exceed with
the LEED exterior and interior lighting pollution requirement, earning an extra credit in the
Sustainable Site Category. As far as the massive plantation scheme goes, Rapidly Renewable
Materials is the one credit can be confidently secured. With careful documentation and
negotiation during the submittal, we can conservatively estimate that: two to four additional LEED
credits can potentially be acquired through my design solutions.
However, in conclusion, they are not sufficient to meet the minimum 39 credits that a LEED Gold
Certification requires, it still serves the environment right, and we as the occupants of this planets
will reap from this benefits ultimately.

Since it is for thesis design purposes, I will ignore the submittal requirement of this study.

After a series of redesigning exercise, the Indianapolis International airport has essentially
become a striped down version of itself relative to the Design Development stage. In compliance
to the LEED lighting pollution criteria, a significant amount of outdoor lighting fixtures has been
taken away. Meanwhile, additional lighting fixtures has been added to the Ticket Hall and
Passenger Concourse, significant modification to the Civic Plaza has also taken place. In addition
the all the modification of lighting fixtures the Civic Plaza is undergoing, a massive plantation
scheme is carried out by my design alteration which suggest the replacement of ventilated tiles
with natural soil, in order to provide “Green” or sustainable environment in the space. All this
addition and subtraction yields savings at the same time can produce additional cost to the
construction budget. In the following report, I will analyze the addition cost/saving associated with
all the changes done to the existing system and design.
Design Goals
The goal of this cost analysis was to analyze if the retrofitted electrical system can be paid off by
the reduction of luminaires throughout this thesis exercise. Second goal of this cost analysis was
to analyze if massive plantation(foliage cost) in the Civic Plaza can be paid off by replacing
ventilated floor tiles with soil.

Conclusion
Based on the cost analysis from above, the money I saved from luminaire reduction is only
sufficient for the purchase of the LED fixtures for my new lighting systems installed in the Ticket
Hall, Civic Plaza as well as the Passenger Concourse. When we taken the electrical system into
account, even with the manufacturers’ retrofit discount, the modified electrical system will cost an
additional of:
However, with the removal of a significant amount of the ventilated floor tiles, we have just given
ourselves a large sum of surplus that will cover the electrical system as well as the massive
plantation cost.

Final Conclusion
The Exterior Departure Canopy area lighting redesign can potentially and is, very likely to acquire
the LEED’s Lighting Pollution credit. It also resulted in a huge energy saving as well as budget
savings.
Most of the lighting system in Ticket Hall are preserved to the existing condition. More than half of
the interior uplight fixtures near the entrance vestibules are taken out in consideration of LEED’s
Lighting Pollution Credit (luminaires located at less than 2.5 times the mounting distance to the
exterior). The addition of in-grade LED luminaires has a result that turned out the way I wanted
which is satifying.
Massive Plantation in the Civic Plaza has very effectively created an Civic Garden. On top of all
the benefits the act has caused, this rather forward-thinking concept can potentially earn the
airport another 2 to 4 extra LEED credits in the Innovation in Design category.
The Concourse’s artificial tunnel utilizing in-grade LED uplights has provided the much needed
visual interest to the space without exceeding ASHRAE’s lighting power densities requirement.
After numerous testing, trials and error study, the redesign of the Indianapolis International Airport
is a relatively successful experience. Due to the tremendously large scale my space has, only
600000 sq-ft our of the total 1.3 million sq-ft of the spaces are covered within my study. Despite
the daunting size and amount of information I was presented, I have found myself successfully
designed down the details of each space. Every space has met with IESNA’s illuminance level
requirement, certain cases, met and exceeded the requirement of ASHRAE’s lighting power
density standard by over 40%.

PATENT PENDING
Application
io Lighting’s line series 2.0 H.O. utilizes the same extruded
aluminum housing as the line series 2.0 standard product. While
the scale of the luminaire’s housing is the same, the light output is
50% greater, hence “High Output”. This low voltage linear floodlight
luminaire utilizes high brightness LEDs and may be specified for
interior or exterior applications. Nominal lengths include: 18", 36",
54", and 72". series 2.0 H.O.’s highly controlled asymmetric beam
spread is a great solution for exterior building facade lighting or sign
lighting. io’s precise optical assembly practically eliminates stray
light making it perfect for applications where light pollution and/or
light trespass are important design considerations. Symmetric beam
spreads (5˚, 30˚, 60˚) are also available. See dedicated specification
sheet for these beam spread options.
Individual series 2.0 H.O. units may be placed end to end to create
continuous rows without obvious shadows between fixtures. Similar
to halogen light sources, LEDs are point sources that offer superior
definition to three dimensional objects and sparkle to reflective
surfaces. Average rated life for series 2.0 H.O. is 50,000 hours.
Lamp lumen depreciation at 50,000 hours is 30%.
Light Output
series 2.0 H.O.’s award winning optical assemblies produce a
luminaire efficiency rating of 95%. Refer to light output tables for
footcandle values at various distances. IES format files may be
obtained from the factory or downloaded from iolighting.com.

i COLOR COVE MX POWERCORE ®
iColor® Cove MX Powercore is the highest-intensity member of the Color Kinetics® iColor Cove®
family of intelligent color changing cove lights, offering more than double the intensity of any other
model in the line. This high-performance 12 inch (30.5 cm) cove light features patent-pending
Powercore™ technology for greater operational efficiency and simplified installation.
iColor Cove MX Powercore utilizes the patent-pending Powercore technology, a digital power
processing technology to drive LED systems, integrating power and data management directly into the
fixture and eliminating the need for an external power supply. Powercore surpasses traditional power
supply technology by streamlining multiple conversion and regulation stages into a single, flexible,
microprocessor-controlled power stage that controls power output to LED systems directly from line
voltage and significantly increases overall system efficiency. Built-in active power factor correction
(PFC) yields higher system efficiencies and minimizes stress on building wiring, making the installation
and system more cost effective.
iColor Cove MX Powercore meets specifications for dry locations. The integral, two-point mounting
bracket simplifies installation and minimizes required tools, and permits 180 degrees of rotation, with
detents every 10 degrees. The end-to-end locking connectors, capable of making 180º turns, make
iColor Cove MX Powercore extremely versatile and easily adaptable for even the most challenging
mounting requirements. An optional mounting track is available for linear runs.
iColor Cove MX Powercore receives data via Color Kinetics' Data Enabler—a data formatting
device that accepts DMX or Color Kinetics Light System Manager (LSM) Ethernet protocol. Each Data
Enabler can support to 60 fixtures at 120VAC, 90 fixtures at 220VAC or 95 fixtures 240VAC for
a single run, end-to-end installation. The 30-foot (9 m) leader cable is field-cuttable and a one-foot
(30 cm) jumper cable is available for installations that require spacing between units. iColor Cove
MX Powercore can be controlled by Color Kinetics' line of controllers, including Color Kinetics Light
System Manager, or a third-party DMX controller.

OPTIBIN®
There are inherent variations in the fabrication processes of all semiconductor materials. For LEDs, this variance results in differences in the color and intensity of light
output as well as electrical characteristics. Due to these differences, LED manufacturers sort production into “bins,” but insuring the availability of a single bin is very diffi-
cult. To minimize this issue and achieve optimal color consistency in its products, Color Kinetics has developed and uses a proprietary technology called Optibin. Optibin
is an advanced production binning optimization process that minimizes the effects of LED variance for the best possible output uniformity in the final product. Color
Kinetics Optibin technology gives the most consistent control of color and intensity from product to product.
