Term
3 ways of determining space needs when square footages are not defined by client
Definition
1. number of people that must be accommodated
2. an object or piece of equipment
3. a specific activity that has it's own space needs
Term
net area
Definition
net assignable area: the actual area needed to accommodate specific functions.
does not include net unassignable areas of primary and secondary circulation space, closets, equipment rooms, building core.
Term
primary circulation space
Definition
includes public circulation space of the leased building (entry lobby, elevator lobbies, main corridors)
Term
secondary circulation space
Definition
includes the corridors of private leased space used to connect net assignable areas to primary circulation areas
Term
useable area
Definition
area available for assignment to tenant, includes net assignable area and secondary circulation space
Term
rentable area
Definition
total amount of usable space including structural columns, thickness of some partitions, portion of exterior wall
Term
efficiency factor
Definition
a mathematical ratio between one area and another, or of the net area to the usable area. efficiency factor takes into account the circulation space. Most office and retail leased space have a factor of between 20 and 30%
Term
rentable usable ratio
Definition
rentable area divided by the usable area. the ratio is calculated by the building owner (core factor)
Term
overall building efficiency
Definition
the ratio of the net assignable area to the gross building area, can range from 50-90% efficiency
Term
linear workflow
Definition
work or business process proceeds from one location to another in strict sequence
Term
centralized work flow
Definition
the work is controlled from one central position
Term
departmental workflow
Definition
hierachical, one group controlling work divided into separate departments
Term
network workflow
Definition
no strict organization of workflow
Term
with the type of work flow know, buildings can be analyzed to determine whether they fit the type of work flow by the following criteria: (8)
Definition
1. points of public entry
2. points of service entry
3. spaces with views
4. spaces without views
5. size and shape of space
6. locations of plumbing and other building services
7. interference with building structure
8. available ceiling height
Term
code checklist for preliminary design (15)
Definition
1. occupancy groups
2. requirements for special populations
3. gross area
4. occupant loads
5. common path of egress travel requirements
6. number of exits required
7. maximum distance to exits
8. arrangement of exits
9. required minimum width of exits
10. dead end length
11. accessibility requirements
12. required seperations
13. corridor construction requirements
14. requirement for doors
15. requirement for glazing
Term
What should be contained in a formal written program? (11)
Definition
1. Title Page
2. Introduction
3. Executive summary
4. Goals & Objectives of the report
5. Summary of Space Needs
6. space adjacencies
7. code requirements
8. analysis of existing space
9. budget & schedule requirements
10. programming concepts
11. appendices
Term
what are the components of the summary of space needs that should be included in the formal written program? (4)
Definition
1. existing staff and staff projections
2. workflow analysis
3. equipment needs
4. tabulation of space needs with circulation
Term
what are the components of the summary of space adjacencies that should be included in the formal written program?
Definition
1. adjacency matrices
2. bubble diagrams
3. stacking diagrams
Term
what are the components of the analysis of the existing space to be included in the formal written program?
Definition
1. architectural space configuration
2. structural requirements
3. mechanical requirements
4. electrical requirements
5. life safety requirements
(should have gathered input from the various consultants to complete this portion)
Term
what appendices could be included in the formal written program?
Definition
1. detailed space needs tabulation
2. existing furniture inventory
3. other detailed survey information
Term
what is the goal of the final programming report?
Definition
to elicit client comments on the conclusions and to get approval so design can proceed. this document should make it clear that design will not proceed until this document is approved, and signature lines should be included.
Term
what are the three possible methods for electronic presentation of the programming report to a large group?
Definition
1. face to face - presenter and audience are in the same room with, say, powerpoint.
2. virtual presentation - teleconferencing
3. internet presentations - web based presentation is prepared and made available to the audience at their convenience. viewers can post their feedback.
Term
what guidelines should be followed to keep the electronic presentation clear and easy to follow?
Definition
1. be consistent with the format of each slide
2. put only one idea on each slide
3. use bold graphics that are easy to understand
4. be specific with thoughts and suggestions
5. always preview the presentation before giving it.
