Hi guys, Im trying to design the lighting for my shop. My shop is 40x60x16. I used a couple of these lights in my shop in Texas to try them out:

https://greenlightdepot.com/products/lhb-110w-with-lens-and-w-o-lens?variant=40723161412

For $83 each, they worked really well. Now that I'm building my new shop, I'm wanting to make sure the lighting is right. The floor will be light gray w/flake shiny epoxy. The walls and ceiling will be drywall and pained except the lower 36" of the wall. It will be galv barn tin.

I've been working with the Sylvania lighting program but just not sure I have all the settings correct or how to select a light that more closely resembles the fixture in the link above. I'm trying to decide on what foot candles I want. I am currently looking at 75fc at 2ft work surface. Can someone thats more knowledgeable on lighting weigh in and let me know if my settings are close?

Here are the settings I am using:

Standard LLF for LED should be 0.90
Standard illuminance for automotive mechanical work = 93fc @ 30" workplane

Thank you for the input. I will change both the Fc and the LLf. Are my reflectance numbers close? Also, for cost comparison vs output, what are your thoughts on the fixture I'm looking at?

The fixture and layout you've posted is what I would recommend (and have many times). Reflectance for a typical room is 70|50|20, but 30 is fine with your finished floor and 80 for the ceiling isn't going to make much difference. I'd pull the trigger on it. Any other fixture option is going to be quite a bit more expensive.

That layout is very similar to a job I did last year with a few less lights, in almost an identical space, using slightly less powerful lights. You're pretty much right on track with a good amount of light.
