I suspect the answer to my question is in my guidebook, but since I bought it in PDF format and its not wanting to recognize my username and password today (yay!), hopefully somebody knows the answer to this off the top of their head. I am modelling a core and shell project. In the proposed building, the "core" areas that are completely finished, such as the lobby and public restrooms, have a complete finished lighting package. I know what to do with that. The shell spaces that will eventually become tenants have a few strip lights for temporary navigational purposes only. They will generally remain off with the exception of when the space is being shown to potential tenants or being accessed for maintenance. So my total watts/sf for the building ends up being somewhere around 0.1 because of all the empty shell space in the proposed. What am I supposed to model in the way of lighting in the baseline for the shell spaces? Do I just match the proposed? Do I model no lights at all? Or is there a published LPD that I am supposed to use for a shell space like that? I don't see one in 90.1. Or since the proposed navigational lighting is temporary, do I model the spaces as completely unlit in both the proposed and the baseline?
