Análisis de las condiciones de iluminación en las aulas del Departamento de Ingeniería Civil de la Universidad de Guanajuato de acuerdo con la NOM-025-STPS-2008 y NOM-007-ENER-2014

Since ancient times humans have used various ways of illuminating the spaces inhabited, initially to protect themselves and now to continue with activities related with the day. However, the lighting in-room houses and public buildings including schools do not have the appropriate levels, low levels can lead to health consequences for users or high levels leads low energy efficiency, so that this study analyzed the lighting in the classrooms of Civil Engineering Department of the University of Guanajuato and compared with the levels set in the Mexican standards. From the results it was concluded that natural lighting is insufficient for reading and writing activities, a situation that is solved with of artificial light, although the classrooms analyzed are energy efficient the production of electricity involves an environmental impact.
