Wall-mounted fixture layouts

Wall-Pack Photometric Layout Software

A wall-pack photometric layout evaluates light from fixtures mounted on a building wall across the adjacent ground or calculation area. Lighting Studio provides a dedicated wall-mounted workflow for mounting height, spacing, distribution and point-by-point review.

Use the correct wall-mounted fixture data

Select the IES file for the actual wall pack or wall-mounted luminaire. Do not substitute an area-light distribution simply because both fixtures are used outdoors.

Set wall geometry and mounting locations

Represent the wall, calculation area, mounting height and fixture positions. The distance from the wall and the coverage between fixtures are central to the review.

Review the near-wall hot zone and forward reach

Wall packs can create strong values close to the façade while falling off farther away. Use the point grid and heatmap together to see both conditions.

Check orientation and spacing

Fixture orientation and spacing change overlap along the wall and reach into the site. Recalculate after moving, rotating or changing the mounting height.

Coordinate the final exterior design

Final review can include egress, security, glare, property lines, controls, emergency requirements and local codes. Lighting Studio does not replace that professional coordination.
