Footcandles Requirements
(OP)
Hi, can anybody tell me where I can find the minimum illumination requirements for listed ocupancies. I'm specifically looking for a hair salon. The clients may want that the barber be able to distinguish between their hair and their ears.

The IES recommends a level of 50-100 fc at task for Barber shops and beauty parlors.

I know a couple of books you can get from local distributors that can help in lighting design. The one I use quite often is the "Philips Lighting Handbook", and Westinghouse also has one. Perhaps talk to a lighting supplier and they will be able to help you out
