Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONThis is a definitive procedure for rating the serviceability of a sp
3、ecific building or building-relatedfacility, that is, its capability to perform to any one of a range of levels of serviceability. This proceduretakes into account factors such as location, mechanical systems, age, and building shape. It can alsobe used to compare how well different buildings or bui
4、lding-related facilities can meet any given setof occupant requirements, despite differences in any or all of those factors. Many parts of theprocedure can also be used to rate the serviceability of a proposed building, that has been designed butnot yet built, remodelled, or rehabilitated.For each g
5、eneric type or category of building or building-related facility, many topics ofserviceability are rated. For each topic a rating scale is obtained, or prepared. A rating scale containsdescriptions of combinations of features, such as materials and design, which may be found in abuilding or building
6、-related facility. Each combination of features described in the scale is indicativeof a certain level of serviceability on that topic, within a predetermined range.For each topic, the combination of features found in the building, building-related facility, or designare compared with those describe
7、d in the appropriate rating scale. The combination of features thatmost closely matches what is physically present in the building, building-related facility, or design,indicates the serviceability level for that topic.In comparing ratings prepared for one building with ratings for another building,
8、 it is essential thatthe same set of rating scales be used for both buildings. Organizations may use a generic, standardizedset of scales. An organization may also adapt the scales for specialized, internal application, or createits own, in which case, it forgoes the possibility of external comparis
9、on.1. Scope1.1 This practice covers a definitive procedure for rating theserviceability of a building or building-related facility, that is,for ascertaining its capability to perform the functions forwhich it is designed, used, or required to be used. A separatescale is used for each topic of servic
10、eability. For each topic, aserviceability level is ascertained. Overall serviceability isexpressed as a profile of levels (that is, not as a single number),and may be presented as a bar chart.1.2 This practice is not intended to be used for regulatorypurposes.1.3 This practice can be used to rate th
11、e serviceability of abuilding or building-related facility that has been planned butnot yet built, or which is about to be remodelled or rehabili-tated, for example, for which single-line drawings and outlinespecifications have been prepared.1.4 This practice specifies how to ascertain serviceabilit
12、ylevels for a specific building, but not what would cause abuilding to be rated at a given level. That information is foundin standard classifications for specific topics of serviceabilitythat contain a set of requirement and rating scales. This practiceand one or more such standard classifications
13、are mutuallydependent. Each requires the other. The format of suchstandard classifications, and of related information, is de-scribed in Appendix X1. An example of the scales written forsuch classifications is given in Appendix X3.1This practice is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee E06 on Per

The term f

Use of the singular inthis practice does not exclude the plural (and vice versa) whenthe sense allows.FIG. 1 Summary Diagram of Procedure for Rating the Serviceability of a Building or Building-Related FacilityE 1334 95 (2005)34. Summary of Practice4
40、.1 This practice is summarized in Fig. 1, which provides aflow chart for rating the serviceability of a building for aspecific purpose.4.2 For rating its own buildings, an organization maychoose among these options:4.2.1 The organization may use an existing ASTM standardset of classifications for th
41、e type(s) of facility used by theorganization.4.2.2 It may prepare a set of classifications containingrequirement and rating scales, and rules for adjustment, allconsistent with its own internal standards for facilities.NOTE 1Serviceability ratings prepared with such internal standardswould not be d
42、irectly comparable to ratings prepared using an ASTMstandard set of classifications.4.2.3 It may support the development of a new set ofstandard classifications through the ASTM voluntary consen-sus process. The recommended format of such classifications isdescribed in Appendix X1.5. Significance an
43、d Use5.1 This practice provides a means of rating the serviceabil-ity levels of any building.5.2 This practice provides a method for comparing how welldifferent buildings meet a particular set of requirements forserviceability, despite differences such as location, structure,mechanical systems, age,
44、 and building shape.5.3 This practice is not affected by the complexity of therequirements for serviceability.5.4 This practice provides a framework within which designprofessionals and managers can select the most cost-effectivemeans to achieve a target level of serviceability.5.5 This practice can
45、 be used by any individual withsufficient knowledge of buildings to identify the features thatare present.5.6 This practice can be applied to many functional types ofbuildings, provided that an appropriate set of classifications,including rating scales, has been established for each type (seeAppendi
46、x X1).5.7 This practice can be used to determine (1) the service-ability (present capability) of an existing building for usesother than its present use; (2) the serviceability (potentialcapability) of a building that has been planned but not yet built;and (3) the serviceability (potential capabilit
47、y) of a building forwhich a remodeling or rehabilitation has been planned.5.8 This practice can be used to determine how well abuilding is capable of meeting some social objective andrequirement, such as the impact of its location on the transpor-tation needs of its present or future occupants, the
48、need forwater and energy conservation, the impact of the buildingsystems, and materials on green building issues.5.9 Use of this practice will help the user understand howvarious subsystems and materials used in a building interact toprovide an overall level of serviceability, and how variouscombina
49、tion of features interact to determine the overallserviceability of the building.5.10 Examples of Potential Applications:5.10.1 Project Feasibility, For example, when the owner ofan older building considers remodelling it into apartments, orneeds to rehabilitate it to bring it up to current market demand.5.10.2 Select Option Before Leasing, For example, a corpo-rate real estate and facility manager compares ratings of severaloffice facilities before selecting which to lease.5.10.3 Compare Serviceability of Design Options, For ex-ample, an architect rate
