BS Vignette Attempt 1

Postby This.Is.Life » Thu Aug 24, 2017 6:19 am

Hey guys. Any feedback on this solution?
Questions:
1. I have some return grills that are within 12" of the wall. I see on the forum that this is not acceptable, but I don't see that in the program. Thoughts?
2. Is it OK to have the diffuser under the rigid duct (see Architect's Office)?

Incorrect spacing for all 2x4 lights. It is extremely unlikely that you will be able to solve the vignette with only one light type.
Connect flex to the center of diffusers, not the edge.
DO NOT bend the rigid duct inside the riser shaft. This is very difficult to construct and accomplishes nothing.

Thanks for the feedback. I see what I did wrong now on the spacing. From my understanding on the lighting charts, 50 fc is measured up to 2' from the short side (4' between lights) and 3' on the long side (6' between lights). I only had 4' separation on the long side, so this is the problem correct?
