1、Designation: E1664 95a (Reapproved 2012) An American National StandardStandard Classification forServiceability of an Office Facility for Layout and BuildingFactors1,2This standard is issued under the fixed designation E1664; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforig
2、inal 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 covers pairs of scales for classifyingan as
3、pect of the serviceability of an office facility, that is, thecapability of an office facility to meet certain possible require-ments for layout and building factors.1.2 Within that aspect of serviceability, each pair of scales,shown in Figs. 1-3, are for classifying one topic of serviceabil-ity. Ea
4、ch paragraph in an Occupant Requirement Scale (seeFigs. 1-3) summarizes one level of serviceability on that topic,which occupants might require. The matching entry in theFacility Rating Scale (see Figs. 1-3) is a translation of therequirement into a description of certain features of a facilitywhich
5、, taken in combination, indicate that the facility is likelyto meet that level of required serviceability.1.3 The entries in the Facility Rating Scale (see Figs. 1-3)are indicative and not comprehensive. They are for quickscanning to estimate approximately, quickly, and economically,how well an offi
6、ce facility is likely to meet the needs of one oranother type of occupant group over time. The entries are notfor measuring, knowing, or evaluating how an office facility isperforming.1.4 This classification can be used to estimate the level ofserviceability of an existing facility. It can also be u
7、sed toestimate the serviceability of a facility that has been plannedbut not yet built, such as one for which single-line drawingsand outline specifications have been prepared.1.5 This classification indicates what would cause a facilityto be rated at a certain level of serviceability but does not s
8、tatehow to conduct a serviceability rating nor how to assign aserviceability score. That information is found in PracticeE1334. The scales in this classification are complimentary toand compatible with Practice E1334. Each requires the other.2. Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:3E631 Terminolog

20、leto this classification, see Terminology E631.3.2 Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard:3.2.1 building loss factorin a facility, expressed as apercentage of a facilitys usable floor area, the space noteffective for planning because of building design. It is the floorarea percentage that mu
21、st be used for excess circulation,oversize footprints, or “dead space,” because of floorplateconfiguration.3.2.2 building projectiona pilaster, convector, baseboardheating unit, radiator, or other building element located in theinterior of a building adjacent to a building wall that preventsthe use
22、of that space for furniture, equipment, circulation, orother functions.3.2.3 floorplatean entire floor of a building, thought of asa solid plane with specific shape and dimensions.3.2.4 occupiable areathat portion of usable area that isactually available for efficient space planning and furniturelay
23、out for office functions, after deducting the area of anybuilding elements or design features that prevent floor areafrom being so used, for example, columns, perimeterconvectors, and projections from walls; or a narrow spacebetween a column and a wall, which cannot be used forplacement of furniture
24、 or for people to walk; or an angle in awall, or diagonal alignment of a wall, leaving a zone wherefurniture cannot be placed.3.2.5 occupied zonethe region within an occupied spacebetween planes 3 and 72 in. (75 and 1800 mm) above the floorand more than 2 ft (600 mm) from the walls or fixedair-condi
25、tioning equipment (see ASHRAE 62-1989).3.2.6 primary circulationthe portion of a building that is apublic corridor, lobby, or the common-use portion of the basefloor of an atrium; or is required for access by all occupants ona floor to stairs, elevators, toilet rooms, or building entrances oremergen
26、cy exits or refuge areas.3.2.7 secondary circulation areathe portion of a buildingrequired for access to some subdivision of space whetherbounded by walls or not, that does not serve all occupants ona floor, and that is not defined as primary circulation area.3.2.8 usable areathe sum of all floor ar
27、eas of a facilityassigned to, or available for assignment to, occupant groups,including interior walls, building columns and projections, andsecondary circulation.4. Significance and Use4.1 Each Facility Rating Scale (see Figs. 1-3) in thisclassification provides a means to estimate the level of ser
28、vice-ability of a building or facility for one topic of serviceabilityand to compare that level against the level of any other buildingor facility.4.2 This classification can be used for comparing how welldifferent buildings or facilities meet a particular requirementfor serviceability. It is applic
29、able despite differences such aslocation, structure, mechanical systems, age, and buildingshape.4.3 This classification can be used to estimate the amount ofvariance of serviceability from target or from requirement, fora single office facility or within a group of office facilities.4.4 This classif
30、ication can be used to estimate the following:4.4.1 Serviceability of an existing facility for uses otherthan its present use.4.4.2 Serviceability (potential) of a facility that has beenplanned but not yet built.4.4.3 Serviceability (potential) of a facility for which re-modeling has been planned.4.
31、5 Use of this classification does not result in buildingevaluation or diagnosis. Building evaluation or diagnosisgenerally requires a special expertise in building engineering ortechnology and the use of instruments, tools, or measurements.4.6 This classification applies only to facilities that areb
32、uilding constructions, or parts thereof. (While this classifica-tion may be useful in rating the serviceability of facilities thatare not building constructions, such facilities are outside thescope of this classification.)4.7 This classification is not intended for, and is not suitablefor, use for
33、regulatory purposes, nor for fire hazard assessmentnor for fire risk assessment.5.
