1、Designation: E2320 04 (Reapproved 2018) An American National StandardStandard Classification forServiceability of an Office Facility for Thermal Environmentand Indoor Air Conditions1,2This standard is issued under the fixed designation E2320; the number immediately following the designation indicate
2、s the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This classification contains pairs of scales f
3、or classify-ing an aspect of the serviceability of an office facility, that is,the capability of an office facility to meet certain possiblerequirements for suitable thermal environment and indoor airconditions.1.2 Within this aspect of serviceability, each pair of scales,shown in Figs. 1-5,3is for
4、classifying one topic of serviceabil-ity. Each paragraph in an Occupant Requirement Scale (seeFigs. 1-5) summarizes one level of requirement for service-ability on that topic, which occupants might require. Thematching paragraph in the Facility Rating Scale (see Figs. 1-5)is a translation of the req
5、uirement into a description of certainfeatures of a facility which, taken in combination, indicate thatthe facility is likely to meet that level of required serviceability.1.3 The paragraphs in the Facility Rating Scale (see Figs.1-5) are indicative and not comprehensive. They are for quickscanning
6、to estimate approximately, quickly, and economicallyhow well a facility is likely to meet the needs of one or anothertype of occupant group over time. The paragraphs are not formeasuring, knowing, or evaluating how an office facility isperforming.1.4 This classification can be used to estimate the l
7、evel ofserviceability of an existing facility. It can also be used toestimate the serviceability of a facility that has been plannedbut not yet built, such as one for which schematic or prelimi-nary drawings and outline specifications have been prepared.1.5 This standard indicates what would cause a
8、 facility to berated (classified) at a certain level of serviceability but does notstate how to conduct a serviceability rating or how to assign aserviceability score. That information is found in PracticeE1334. The scales in this classification are complimentary toand compatible with Practice E1334
9、. Each requires the other.1.6 This standard indicates what would cause a requirementto be classified as being at a specific level, but does not statehow to ascertain a requirement, or how to assign a specificlevel. This information is found in Practice E1679. The scalesin this classification are com
10、plimentary to and compatible withPractice E1679. Each requires the other.1.7 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. The values given in parentheses are mathematicalconversions to inch-pound units that are provided for informa-tion only and are not considered standard.1.8 This s

It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety, health, and environmental practices and deter-mine the applicability of regulatory requirements prior to use.1.9 This

35、nd Use4.1 Each Occupant Requirement Scale (see Figs. 1-5) in thisclassification provides a means to set the required level ofserviceability of a building or facility for one topic of service-ability and to compare that level against any level of any otheroccupant, or of any building or facility.4.2
36、Each Facility Rating Scale (see Figs. 1-5) in thisclassification provides a means to estimate the level of service-ability of a building or facility for one topic of serviceabilityand to compare that level against any level of requirement ofany occupant, or of any other building or facility.4.3 This
37、 classification can be used for comparing how welldifferent buildings or facilities meet a particular requirementfor serviceability. It is applicable despite differences such aslocation, structure, mechanical systems, age, and buildingshape.4.4 This classification can be used to estimate the amount
38、ofvariance of serviceability from target or from requirement, fora single office facility, or within a group of office facilities.4.5 This classification can be used to estimate the following:4.5.1 Serviceability of an existing facility for uses otherthan its present use.4.5.2 Serviceability (potent
39、ial) of a facility that has beenplanned but not yet built.4.5.3 Serviceability (potential) of a facility for which re-modeling has been planned.4.6 Use of this classification does not result in buildingevaluation or diagnosis. Building evaluation or diagnosisgenerally requires a special expertise in
40、 building engineering ortechnology, and the use of instruments, tools, or measurements.4.7 This classification applies only to facilities that arebuilding constructions, or part thereof. (While classificationmay be useful in rating the serviceability of facilities that arenot building constructions,
41、 such facilities are outside the scopeof this classification. See discussion under definition 3.1.1.)4.8 This classification is not intended for, and is not suitablefor, use for regulatory purposes nor for fire hazard assessmentnor for fire risk assessment.5.
