Floodlighting of buildings and structures¿some practical aspects

For over 100 years, engineers have been utilising electric power for a wide variety of floodlighting applications, and although early experiments often had a very limited life, there is no doubt that they were spectacular. Today, there is a wealth of knowledge and experience to support engineers and architects when they design schemes for projects of all types, and there is also a comprehensive range of luminaires available to suit most applications. Nevertheless, each project brings its own particular problems, and success usually depends on the skill of those who seek to interpret the day-time appearance
