1、Designation: E 1700 95 (Reapproved 2005)An American National StandardStandard Classification forServiceability of an Office Facility for Structure and BuildingEnvelope1, 2This standard is issued under the fixed designation E 1700; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year o
2、foriginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This classification covers pairs of scales (see Figs. 1-6
3、)for classifying an aspect of the serviceability of an officefacility, that is, the capability of an office facility to meetcertain possible requirements for structure and building enve-lope.1.2 Within that aspect of serviceability, each pair of scales(see Figs. 1-6) are for classifying one topic of
4、 serviceability.Each paragraph in an Occupant Requirement Scale summarizesone level of serviceability on that topic, which occupants mightrequire. The matching entry in the Facility Rating Scale is atranslation of the requirement into a description of certainfeatures of a facility which, taken in co
5、mbination, indicate thatthe facility is likely to meet that level of required serviceability.1.3 The entries in the Facility Rating Scale (see Figs. 1-6)are indicative and not comprehensive. They are for quickscanning, to estimate approximately, quickly, and economi-cally, how well an office facilit
6、y is likely to meet the needs ofone or another type of occupant group, over time. The entriesare not for measuring, knowing, or evaluating how an officefacility is performing.1.4 This classification can be used to estimate the level ofserviceability of an existing facility. It can also be used toest
7、imate 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 statehow
8、to conduct a serviceability rating nor how to assign aserviceability score. That information is found in PracticeE 1334. The scales in Figs. 1-6 are complimentary to andcompatible with Practice E 1334. Each requires the other.2. Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:3E 631 Terminology of Building C

Significance and Use4.1 Each Fac
18、ility Rating Scale in this classification (seeFigs. 1-6) provides a means to estimate the level of service-ability of a building or facility for one topic of serviceability,and to compare that level against the level of any other buildingor facility.4.2 This classification can be used for comparing
19、how welldifferent buildings or facilities meet a particular requirementfor serviceability. It is applicable 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 o
20、r from requirement, fora single office facility, or within a group of office facilities.4.4 This classification 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 bu
21、t not yet built.4.4.3 Serviceability (potential) of a facility for which aremodeling has been planned.4.5 Use of this classification does not result in buildingevaluation or diagnosis. Building evaluation or diagnosisgenerally requires a special expertise in building engineering ortechnology, and th
22、e use of instruments, tools, or measurements.4.6 This classification applies only to facilities that arebuilding 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 thesc
23、ope of this classification.)5.
