About this Course

The IES offers Educational Webinars throughout the year, purposefully spanning a broad range of topics and speaker expertise. This was a live webinar, now available as an archived webinar and CEU course. 

Description: Understanding how light is controlled and delivered is important in any application. In roadway applications, it can mean life and death. Ray will go through in detail how photometrics are developed for roadway lighting solutions via goniophotometer and how they applied within the calculation software, including TM-21 Reports. He will also provide a discussion and review of RP-8-18 Chapter 3 – Calculations.

Learning Objectives:

By the end of this course learners will be able to...

1. Understand the manner that the term "Roadway Photometrics" is used: Individual luminaire photometry, Application of photometry to demonstrate compliance with criteria.
2. Learn how lumen depreciation is estimated for LEDs with expected life exceeding the testing time: LM-80, TM-21
3. Understand the types of testing used to determine photometry of individual luminaires, LM-79: Integrating Sphere and Gonio-photometer
4. Identify applications of roadway photometry per IES RP-8 Chapter 3: Luminance, Illuminance, Veiling Luminance
5. Understand the limitations of photometry
