 Need of Street Lighting


 Distribution of Light
 Design for street lighting
 Components and
it’sspecification
Needfor Street
 lighting
The main purpose of street lighting is to enable
the road users to see accurately and easily
the carriageway and the immediate
surrounding in darkness.
 Improved visibility at night by means of
artificial lighting lessens the strain on driving
and ensures comfort.
 The drivers feel more confident in driving
under proper street lighting
 Majority of road accident are caused in night
and the poor lighting is the main cause.
 With better lighting, the speed of traffic
generally improves and traffic flow conditions
improves
 On urban road where the density of
population is high, street lighting has other
advantages like feeling of security and
protection.
Factors affecting NightVisibility
 Amount and distribution of light flux
from the lamp.
 Size of object.
 Brightness of
the background.

 Reflecting characteristics of the

pavement surface.
 Glare on the eyes of the driver.
Distribution
 oflight
Allowed to distribute radially from the
source
 Good amount of flux is required
at a particular vertical angle.
 Distribution of luminance is also called
as glare.
 Glare can cause discomfort and reduce
visibility.
 Glare depends on,
 Brightness of the glare source
 Angle of with respect
incidence normal line to
of vision.
 Area of glare source.
Glare may be controlled
by,
 Increasing the height of the mounting
 Shielding the light source
 Reduce the brightness contract of
the lightsource.
 Vertical Distribution of light
there are 3 types,
1. Cut off(>70°)
2. Non cut off(High angle 80°)
3. Semi cut off(75°)
 Laterial distribution light
 It is also known as Horizontal
distribution oflighting which there are
also 3 types,
4. Symmetrical distribution
5. Axial distribution
6. Non axial distribution.
Design factor for street
lighting
 Various factors to be considered in the design of street
lighting are:
1. Contrast :
when the brightness of the object is less than that of the
background, that is when the object appears darker than the
road surface, discernment is principally by silhouette.
2.
Glare
The disturbing influence when viewing a difficult
visual task under low brightness conditions is known
as glare.
 There are two types of glare:-
o Disability glare
o Discomfort glare
3. Lamps
 The lamps commonly used for highway and street lighting
are,

Mercury Vapour Metal Halide


Lamp

High Pressure LED Lamp


Sodium
4. Luminainaire distribution of
light
 To have the it best utility of the
luminaire or source of light, it
is necessary to have proper distribution
of light.
 It should be aimed to achieve
following purposes.
 It should cover the pavement
between the kerbs.
 It should produce maximum
uniformity of pavement brightness.
 It should make prominent the traffic
signs and other objects on road.
5. Lateral placement of lighting poles
 The lighting poles should not be installed very close to the
pavement edge, because in that case,the capacity of the roadway is
decreased and the free movement of traffic is obstructed.
 IRC has specified the following horizontal clearances for lighting
poles.

a. For roads with raised kerbs Min. Min. 0.3 m and


0.3 m and desirable 0.6 m from the edge of rais
the edge of raised kerb.(as in
urban
roads)

b. For roads without raised kerbs(as Min. 1.5 m fro


in rural roads) carriageway, su
from the centre
carriageway.
6. Height and overhang of
mounting
 The glare on eyes from the mounted lights decreases with increases in the
height of mounting. Usually, mounting height range from 6 to 10m.
• Overhangs on the lighting poles would keep the poles away from
the pavement edges, but still allow the lamp to be held above the kerb or
towards the pavements.
7. Spacing of lighting
units
 The spacing between lamps on roads is about 3
straight 5 times the mounting height. to
 For sharp curves, the spacing lamps is closer
between for better visibility
conditions.
8. Lighting layouts
 Various types of layouts adopted for lighting poles on streets or highways
are,
1. Single side lighting
2. Both side lighting-opposite
3. Both side lighting-staggered
4. Central lighting
