1、Designation: E1700 95 (Reapproved 2005)E1700 13 An American National StandardStandard Classification forServiceability of an Office Facility for Structure and BuildingEnvelope1,2This standard is issued under the fixed designation E1700; the number immediately following the designation indicates the
2、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 covers pairs of scales (see Figs
3、. 1-6) for classifying an aspect of the serviceability of an office facility,that is, the capability of an office facility to meet certain possible requirements for structure and building envelope.1.2 Within that aspect of serviceability, each pair of scales (see Figs. 1-6) are for classifying one t
4、opic of serviceability. Eachparagraph in an Occupant Requirement Scale summarizes one level of serviceability on that topic, which occupants might require.The matching entry in the Facility Rating Scale is a translation of the requirement into a description of certain features of a facilitywhich, ta
5、ken in combination, indicate that the 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 quick scanning,to estimate approximately, quickly, and economically, how well an offi
6、ce facility is likely to meet the needs of one or another typeof occupant group, over time. The entries are not for measuring, knowing, or evaluating how an office facility is performing.1.4 This classification can be used to estimate the level of serviceability of an existing facility. It can also
7、be used to estimatethe serviceability of a facility that has been planned but not yet built, such as one for which single-line drawings and outlinespecifications have been prepared.1.5 This classification indicates what would cause a facility to be rated at a certain level of serviceability, but doe
8、s not state howto conduct a serviceability rating nor how to assign a serviceability score. That information is found in Practice E1334. The scalesin Figs. 1-6 are complimentary to and compatible with Practice E1334. Each requires the other.1.6 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarde
9、d as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematicalconversions to SI units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard.2.

19、of this performance is of the facility as a system, including its subsystems, components, and materials and theirinteractions, such as acoustical, hydrothermal, air purity, and economic; and of the relative importance of each performancerequirement.3.1.3 offcea place, such as a room, suite, or build

Significance and Use4.1 Each Facility Rating Scale in this classification (see Figs
21、. 1-6) provides a means to estimate the level of serviceability ofa building or facility for one topic of serviceability, and to compare that level against the level of any other building or facility.4.2 This classification can be used for comparing how well different buildings or facilities meet a
22、particular requirement forserviceability. It is applicable despite differences such as location, structure, mechanical systems, age, and building shape.4.3 This classification can be used to estimate the amount of variance of serviceability from target or from requirement, for asingle office facilit
23、y, 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 other than its present use.4.4.2 Serviceability (potential) of a facility that has been planned but not yet built.4.4.3 Serviceability (potent
24、ial) of a facility for which a remodeling has been planned.4.5 Use of this classification does not result in building evaluation or diagnosis. Building evaluation or diagnosis generallyrequires a special expertise in building engineering or technology, and the use of instruments, tools, or measureme
25、nts.4.6 This classification applies only to facilities that are building constructions, or parts thereof. (While this classification maybe useful in rating the serviceability of facilities that are not building constructions, such facilities are outside the scope of thisclassification.)5. Basis of C
