![عکس صفحه اول مقاله: Rational-design process and evaluation of street-lighting design for apartment complexes Rational-design process and evaluation of street-lighting design for apartment complexes](/preview/png/249960.png)
This study proposes the application of a rational-design process for street-lighting design considering the characteristics of space and the apartment complex on the basis of the recommended illumination levels for such. In this study, space syntax theory, which is used to generate a strategic-design framework based on detailed analysis of spatial configuration and represent any urban area as a matrix of connected spaces using computer simulations, is implemented in the design process. Based on previous research, which utilized the application of the space syntax theory to street-lighting design in a commercial area, this study extends such research to include street-lighting design of residential areas. In addition, this study evaluates current street-lighting designs in apartment complexes including selection of proper luminaires and relocation of existing luminaires. This study proposes further detailed improvements of the street-lighting design process.
