Academic Building Systems Number 1. Environmental Study. Science and Engineering Buildings.

摘要

The report analyzes the user needs of six existing science and engineering buildings and the implications of their needs on present and future university building designs and construction. This document presents data and conclusions resulting from a series of user studies,involving a spectrum of individuals,disciplines and space types,concerning activity patterns in and reactions to existing facilities. Additionally,background studies of academic methods were made to ascertain the range of ways academic buildings may have to meet the needs of future users. The ABS research involved four main lines of inquiry:User requirements,performance standards,cost base,and subsystems options.
