To figure LPD’s quickly, COMcheck is my weapon of choice – alongside an area 
takeoff.
 
Select 90.1-2001 as your code from the top menu, then go through the first 
screen entering space areas using the dropdown menus.  You’ll have a total 
allowable LPD in the end.  

 
Depending on whether you have ‘fine material storage,’ you may or may not want 
to go space-by-space’ vs. whole building method for a warehouse… it doesn’t take 
long to explore both.
 
Remember, EPAct has a caveat for warehouses if doing the interim lighting rule.

Nick:
 
Thank you for the information.  I downloaded ComCheck, and yes, this is for 
EPAct.  What I need at present is what is the allowable (w/sf) for a warehouse 
in 90.1-2001. I want to be able to give the lighting designer what their maximum 
is.
 
Thanks!

Note: Forwarded message is attached.
Paul, 
 
As a caution, If you’re looking into 90.1-2001 LPD’s in the context of EPAct, be 
sure you’re aware of Addendum G and that you’re using the correct set of values 
(see attached discussion from [bldg-sim]).
 
On a related note –COMcheck is a very handy free tool to be aware of:
 
http://www.energycodes.gov/comcheck/download.stm
 
This tool puts a lot of energy codes (LPD’s, specifically) at your fingertips.

Does anyone have a copy of 90.1 (2001), specifically the lighting (W/SF based on 
building type) redily avialable and can share them?  We only have 2004 and 2007, 
I need this informatin to verify lighting levels for an older project.
 
Thank you!
 
 
miliarity with the program is key.
