Second Floor Plan
The silent study area was located at second floor with one side facing the front road and another
side facing the back alley. The space was separate from others activity to enhance the sound
properties. The spaces was expose to sunlight to provide enough lighting for the function.Hence,
minimal artificial lighting was needed in this area.

=1260 lux
The selected silent study space has a daylight factor of 6.3% and natural illumination of
2000 lux. Based on the requirements of MS1525.The space is too bright as it exceeds the
6% factor. For the purpose of reducing the thermal and glare problem,A louvers facade
system is proposed for the facade design of the library. The vertical louvers will provide a
well shading and reduce the amount of sunlight penetrating into the space. Hence,this
design should be augmented with internalshades for low perpendicular sun angles.The
low-e laminated glass is using as the inner facade of the space to provide privacy and well
sound properties for user.

Conclusion
1.1.3 PSALI -Permanent supplementery Artificial Lighting for Interior
30 downlights are used to illuminate study area to chieve minimum of 300 lux that stated in MS 1525.
With the sufficient level of illumination, the users can read in the comfort space.
sw 1
sw 2
There are 30 light fitting in the study room. Controlled by 2 switches which can choose to
turn it off during day time according to the light needed. SW 1 can be choose to turn off
if there are suffiencient daylighting in the space. However, to achieve a uniform lighting and
follow the 300 lux requirement of MS 1525, the SW 2 had to turn on during the day.
Reading
Area
1.2 Reading space
The reading space was located at first floor facing the back alley. The function of reading space was
provide a cozy reading area for the user. The facade for the space was a 7 meter curtain wall which
maximise the sunlight penetration. The open design allows view out and daylight penetration.This
design augmented with internal shades for low perpendicular sun angles. Therefore, less artificial
light is needed.

The selected reading space has a daylight factor of 3.8% and natural illumination of 2000 lux.
Based on the requirements of MS1525.The space is a good distribution for daylight as the value
is within 3-6 %.Curtain may used to reduce the thermal problemand achieve a better value of
daylight factor.

Conclusion
There are 6 light fitting in reading room to achieve uniform lighting and achieve the minimum 300
lux that stated in MS1525. With sufficient light illumination, user can read inside the space
comfortably.
There are 6 light fitting in the study room. To achieve a uniform lighting and follow the 300 lux
requirement of MS 1525, the SW 1 had to turn on during the day. However, for energy saving,
switch 2 can choose to turn off due to the sufficient daylighting.

Non-Peak Hour ( Jalan Sultan Azlan Shah)
From the result, the average sound pressure level for the quiet study room is 75dB for peak hour and
65 dB for non-peak hour. 75 dB is quite high for a study room.
The design solution to resolve the issue is to create a facade that can block the noise from
entering the study room and enhance the sound propertise inside the space.

pressure level in the reading roomis approximately 70dB, the sound that is transmitted through
partitions into the reading room is approximately 38dB. Acording to the noise criteria environment
perception ,38dB is in the category of whisper sound. It is an ideal value for a reading
area where people are focusing on reading and studying.

The space was separate from others activity to enhance the sound properties. The spaces was expose to sunlight to provide enough lighting for the function.Hence, minimal artificial lighting was needed in this area. Daylight Factor, DF Daylight According to Ms 1525:

E external = 20000 lux DF= E internal / E external x 100 6.3 = E internal/20000x100 E internal=6.3 x 20000 / 100 =1260 lux The selected silent study space has a daylight factor of 6.3% and natural illumination of 2000 lux. Based on the requirements of MS1525.The space is too bright as it exceeds the 6% factor. For the purpose of reducing the thermal and glare problem,A louvers facade system is proposed for the facade design of the library. The vertical louvers will provide a well shading and reduce the amount of sunlight penetrating into the space. Hence,this design should be augmented with internalshades for low perpendicular sun angles.The low-e laminated glass is using as the inner facade of the space to provide privacy and well sound properties for user.

  • 8. Reading Area 1.2 Reading space The reading space was located at first floor facing the back alley. The function of reading space was provide a cozy reading area for the user. The facade for the space was a 7 meter curtain wall which maximise the sunlight penetration. The open design allows view out and daylight penetration.This design augmented with internal shades for low perpendicular sun angles. Therefore, less artificial light is needed.

With sufficient light illumination, user can read inside the space comfortably. There are 6 light fitting in the study room. To achieve a uniform lighting and follow the 300 lux requirement of MS 1525, the SW 1 had to turn on during the day.
