IESNA/Ledalite Award The IESNA/Ledalite Architectural Products Award encourages and recognizes strong lighting research projects and papers by students in undergraduate illumination programs. To qualify for this year’s IESNA/Ledalite Architectural Products Award, candidates must be enrolled as full-time, undergraduate students in an approved academic degree program. All approved programs are those offering a substantial core of illumination studies and are either engineering or four-year engineering technology programs accredited by the Accreditation Board of Engineering and Technology. Architectural programs must be accredited by the National Architectural Accrediting Board. Interior design programs must be accredited by the Foundation for Interior Design Education Research or theatre programs accreted by the National Association of Schools of Theater. Papers are to include introduction and statement of the research prob- ANSI Approves ASHRAE/IESNA Standard 90.1-1999 The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) approved Standard 90.1. ANSI/ASHRAE/IESNA Standard 90.1-1999, Energy Standard for Buildings Except Low-Rise Residential Buildings provides the minimum requirements for the design of energy efficient buildings. Also, complete errata sheets for ASHRAE/IESNA Standard 90.1-1999, Energy Standard for Buildings Except Low-Rise Residential Buildings, and the 90.1-1999 User’s Manual are now available for free from the ASHRAE website at www.ashrae.org/ standards/errata.him and from the IESNA, as well. ASHRAE has also proposed changes to the International Energy Conservation Code that would make it equivalent to the requirements in ANSI/ ILLUMINATING ENGINEERING SOCIETY NEWS VOLUME 31, NUMBER 3 MARCH 2001 lem, literature review, statement of hypothesis or specific research issue, description of methodology, results and evaluation and conclusions. Papers must have a minimum of 5,000 words along with a 250-word abstract. Work will be judged on originality, validity, quality of scholarship and relevance to lighting. Team research will be accepted, however should a team entry be selected to receive the award, team members would be asked to designate which individual member would receive the award. All papers are due at the IESNA office by March 31, 2001. For more information contact W. Hanley at whanley@iesna.org ASHRAE/IESNA Standard 90.1-1999. These proposals will be considered by the International Code Council during hearings in early 2001 for inclusion with the 2002 Supplement.
