This document outlines the content and objectives of the Building Management Module 2006 course. The aim is to guide students to understand the complexities of managing buildings and the built environment, with a focus on processes and systems rather than technology. The objectives to be covered include the building design process, building contracts and project management, concepts of sustainable development, surveying existing buildings, building energy performance, and designing large commercial and residential buildings. Students will examine energy performance certificates, measurement codes, building analysis, and sustainable development. They will also analyze existing buildings and large structures, complex services, and problems with older buildings.

This document discusses energy performance certificates and minimum energy efficiency standards for commercial properties in the UK. It provides an overview of the new regulations taking effect from 2018-2023 that prohibit leasing properties with low F or G energy ratings. The potential impacts are outlined, including the need for landlords to assess property portfolios and undertake energy efficiency upgrades. Recommendations are made to incorporate energy performance into maintenance plans. The role of property technology in surveying is also discussed.The building site
The building siteJulian Swindell
油
1. A site appraisal involves both a desk top appraisal and physical site appraisal to understand all external influences and subsurface conditions of the building site.
2. The desk top appraisal involves researching documentation about the site location, climate, services, easements, and previous development.
3. The physical site appraisal includes a measured site survey, direct site inspection, and trial holes or boreholes to investigate the soil conditions and detect any previous disturbances or risks.
4. Upon completing both appraisal stages, the designer should have a thorough understanding of the site to inform the building design.Conversions of buildings
Conversions of buildingsJulian Swindell
油
Converting redundant buildings can save on new construction costs but also carries high financial risks due to the unpredictability of renovating existing structures. Conversions require contingencies since the full renovations needs are difficult to foresee. Proper planning including thorough structural surveys and a comprehensive design brief are necessary to help manage risks. However, conversions still involve uncertainties that can lead to cost overruns and jeopardize project completion or profitability if severe problems arise.1014 Why do we_need_buildings

Buildings are needed to create artificial environments suited for human life and activities, as humans evolved to live in warm, protected environments similar to the Garden of Eden. There are five essential aspects of building technology: 1) enclosure to separate the interior from exterior and control the weather and climate, 2) structure to support the building and prevent collapse, 3) durable materials used for construction, 4) environmental control of temperature, lighting and ventilation, and 5) utility services like water, drainage and electricity. Buildings allow humans to control their environment rather than being at the mercy of nature.Efita2007 update2011

This document compares two rural empowerment projects that aimed to provide access to knowledge through information and communication technologies (ICT). The first project in Honduras was initiated by an international non-governmental organization and had a top-down approach, while the second project in India establishing Village Knowledge Centers was locally initiated. The Honduras project produced reports but did not have lasting local impact after funding ended, while the India project continues to be utilized by local villagers. The document concludes that locally initiated projects can have more sustainable impacts than top-down international projects, and that future development efforts should support both local NGOs and international knowledge transfer initiatives.Selecting features by attributes

The presentation shows an innovative model of integrated workshop on building design. It is aimed at improving the students knowledge on the importance of a collaborative approach among both architectural and technical specialists. Such an approach once was adopted only for main architectural works. Nowadays, however, the increasing necessity of both structural (seismic) and energy performances of the buildings requires a more complex approach also in ordinary ones design.
The workshop is part of the course for the master degree in Architecture of the University of Cagliari. It is composed by three modules: Architectural Engineering, Structural Design and Physics Engineering. The single theory modules are less than an half of the semester. Most of the time is dedicated to a practical workshop in which the students are divided into groups and work on a assigned design theme. Last year it was the revisiting of three buildings designed by Mario de Renzi, one of the main architects of Italian modernism. The aim of the workshop is giving the students a first-hand experience on the importance that every choice on the architectural field has on structural and energy performance ones and vice versa.
The results are quite encouraging. The workshop constantly receives positive feedbacks in the students evaluation questionnaires and it is above the average rating of the course.
The main strength is the systemic approach that results in outputs that are far beyond what could have been done teaching the same subjects separately. In the future a new module on Building Information Modelling will be added to the workshop. It could give the possibility to better structure and manage the interactions between architectural and technical aspects.Project Management Lecture Introduction1

Introduction to building technologyJulian Swindell
油
This document discusses building technologies and concepts of sustainability and building regulation. It covers why humans need buildings to create artificial environments suited for human life and activities. It then discusses various building technologies related to enclosure, structure, environmental control and utilities that allow buildings to provide a controlled interior environment. Finally, it discusses building control through building regulations and approved documents that provide guidance on meeting regulation standards.Complex services
Complex servicesJulian Swindell
油
1. Air conditioning and ground/air source heating systems provide climate control beyond basic ventilation and heating by controlling temperature, humidity, air quality, and fresh/recycled air balance.
2. Air conditioning works by exploiting the physics that compressed fluids increase in temperature and expanded fluids decrease in temperature. Refrigerants are used in a closed loop system with compressors, cooling towers, and expansion valves to lower the air temperature.
3. While effective, air conditioning and heat pumps require significant energy to operate and their refrigerants have posed environmental problems, so high insulation and supplemental heating may provide a more cost effective solution for climate control.Servicing large buildings
Servicing large buildingsJulian Swindell
油
This document discusses the challenges of servicing large and tall buildings. It notes that simply scaling up small building systems does not work for large structures. Mechanical ventilation, pressurized water systems, high-temperature steam heating, electrical infrastructure, and multiple elevator banks are needed to service deep interior spaces and heights of over 10 floors. Servicing tall buildings requires specialized engineering of complex systems and consumes significant floor space, substantially increasing construction costs.Options for energy_sustainability
Options for energy_sustainabilityJulian Swindell
油
This document discusses options for more sustainable energy sources. It outlines that human activities currently rely heavily on non-renewable fossil fuels for energy. Alternative energy sources discussed include solar, geothermal, hydroelectric, wind, biogas, and nuclear. Specific technologies are described such as photovoltaics, solar water heating, building orientation for passive solar gain, ground source heat pumps, and biogas generation from organic waste. The summary concludes that solar can provide heat and hot water but electricity generation remains limited, wind power is ineffective at small scales, and significant energy can be obtained through building design while biogas requires large-scale implementation.Drawings
DrawingsJulian Swindell
油
This document discusses the importance of drawings in the building design process. It begins by stating that all buildings are planned in advance through design. It then explains that the design process involves three key stages: conception, development, and realization. In the conception stage, architects create initial sketch proposals and drawings to visualize their ideas for the client and design team. In development, alternative designs are explored through more drawings to arrive at a fully-developed solution. Working drawings and detailed specifications are then produced to communicate the full proposal to the builder. The realization stage involves using these final drawings to guide the actual construction of the building. Drawings are thus essential at every step for designing, planning, communicating, and building architectural structures.
The Building Regulations and their approved documents
The Building Regulations and their approved documentsJulian Swindell
油
The Building Regulations of England and Wales establish technical standards for the design and construction of buildings. They are achieved through the application of the Building Regulations, which were most recently updated in 2000. There are 14 areas covered by the regulations addressing issues like structure, fire safety, ventilation, drainage and more. Approved documents set out best practices that if followed ensure compliance with the regulations. The building control process involves submitting plans and having inspections during construction by the local authority or approved private inspector.Building Contracts and CDM regulations
Building Contracts and CDM regulationsJulian Swindell
油
The document discusses standard building contracts and Construction (Design and Management) Regulations (CDM Regs). Building contracts are necessary due to the expense, complexity, and unpredictability of construction projects. The Joint Contracts Tribunal established standard forms of building contracts for different project sizes. Larger contracts allocate risks in detail while simpler contracts keep costs lower. CDM Regs aim to improve health and safety on construction sites by defining duty holders and their duties. Notifiable projects require notifying the Health and Safety Executive.Remote sensing
Remote sensingJulian Swindell
油
Remote sensing involves observing the Earth from a distance using aerial photographs or satellite imagery. Aerial photographs provide detailed views from low altitudes but limited coverage, while satellite images offer global coverage but less detail. Remote sensing data can be used to map features, monitor changes over time, and classify land cover by analyzing spectral signatures from multi-spectral imagery. Digital tools allow remote sensing data to be manipulated for 3D modeling and analysis in geographic information systems.Greenshopsolar photos

The document discusses the process of designing and building constructions from conception to realization. It begins by explaining that all buildings are planned in advance through drawings, which serve as creative, communicative, and record-keeping tools. The design process is then outlined in three stages: conception involving initial sketches and proposals, development exploring alternative ideas and refining solutions, and realization using detailed working drawings to guide construction of the final building. Examples of sketches, models, and technical drawings are provided to illustrate how visual representations are essential at each stage of transforming ideas into built realities.Recently uploaded (20)

The branch of pharmacology concerned with the immune system. Immunopharmacology is the study of the effects of the drugs modifying immune mechanism in body. It includes not only inoculation but also autoimmune disorders, allergic reactions, and cancer. IMMUNITY is the ability of the living body or the process to resist various types of organisms or toxins that tend to damage the tissue and organs.Immunostimulants and immunomodulators are drugs that modulate the immune response and can be used to increase the immune responsiveness of patients with Immunodeficiency as in AIDS, chronic illness and cancers.
Vaccines and antisera are used for immunization against bacterial and viral infections.
Synthesized originally as an anthelmintic but appears to restore depressed immune function of B lymphocytes, T lymphocytes, monocytes and macrophages.
Interferons alpha and beta are mainly used for antiviral effects while interferon a for its immunomodulating actions.
Cyclosporine is a cyclic peptide antibiotic produced by a fungus Beauveria nivea.
Cyclosporine acts at an early stage, selectively inhibits T cell proliferation and suppresses cell-mediated immunity.
Azathioprine is a prodrug of mercaptopurine which is a purine analog.
TNFa is secreted by activated macrophages and other immune cells to act on TNF receptors (TNFR1, TNFR2) which are located on the surface of neutrophils, fibroblasts, endothelial cells as well as found in free soluble form in serum and serous fluids.
Etanercept is also used for severe/refractory ankylosing spondylitis, polyarticular idiopathic juvenile arthritis and plaque psoriasis
Anakinra along with continued MTX has been used alone as well as added to Tnfa antagonists, because its clinical efficacy as monotherapy is lower.Use of immunosuppressants is essential for successful organ transplantation.
