Hello,

I have two concrete cases where I'm embarrassed regarding lighting in a swimming pool with 90.1.
Case 1 : A swimming pool building (the building is a swimming pool)
In the lighting section of 90.1, the Building Area Method (9.5) has no building area type corresponding specifically to a swimming pool. My guess would be to choose the "Gymnasium" because as a swimming pool, there is high ceiling and locker room.

Using the Building Area Method, is the "Gymnasium" a correct assumption for a swimming pool building ?

Case 2 : A swimming pool in a residential building
Assuming that the "multifamily"'s LPD doesn't allow me to comply to the Building Area Method, and I decide to choose the space by space method. My guess would be to choose a building-specific space type in the list "Sport Arena", but I'm block by these unanswered question : what is the meaning of the class ? :

? Court sport arena - class 4

? Court sport arena - class 2

? Court sport arena - class 1

Using the Space by Space Method, what would be the best building-specific space type for the area dedicated to the pool ?

Thanks,

Julien
