ACOUSTIC VALUES

BIM is used to design and document building and infrastructure designs. Every detail of a building is modeled in BIM. The model can be used for analysis to explore design options and to create visualizations that help stakeholders understand what the building will look like before it's built. The model is then used to generate the design documentation for construction.

Milliken has partnered with RIBA to provide BIM objects (including REVIT files) for Milliken carpet and LVT products through the NBS National BIM Library.

LIGHT REFLECTIVE VALUES

LRV is a measurement that indicates how much light a surface reflects and how much it absorbs.

Values are measured on a 0 – 100 scale, where 0 = perfectly absorbing black, 100 = perfectly reflecting brilliant white. Understanding Light Reflectance values of surfaces enable interior lighting levels to be optimised and colours to be contrasted. Milliken provides these values for all products in accordance with BS8300.

Simply use the L value for determining lighting levels * or the LRV (Y) value to compare the carpet colour to edgings and other surface finishes, in order to achieve the recommended 30 point difference in colour contrast required for inclusive design.

(*L value can additionally be converted to a decimal for lux rating e.g. L 24 = Lux rating 0.24)
