Building services refers to the equipment and systems thatcontribute to controlling the internal environment to make it safeand comfortable to occupy. They also support the requirements ofprocesses and business functions within buildings, for examplemanufacturing and assembly operations, medical procedures,warehousing and storage of materials, chemical processing, housinglivestock, plant cultivation, etc.
For both people and processes the ability of the buildingservices engineering systems to continually perform properly,reliably, effectively and efficiently is of vital importance to theoperational requirements of a building. Typically the buildingservices installation is worth 30-60% of the total value of acontract, however existing publications on design managementbundles building services engineering up with other disciplines anddoes not recognise its unique features and idiosyncrasies.
Building Services Design Management provides authoritativeguidance for building services engineers responsible for the designof services, overseeing the installation, and witnessing thetesting and commissioning of these systems. The design stagerequires technical skills to ensure that the systems are safe,compliant with legislative requirements and good practices, arecost-effective and are coordinated with the needs of the otherdesign and construction team professionals. Coveringeverything from occupant subjectivity and end-user behaviour todesign life maintainability, sequencing and design responsibilitythe book will meet the needs of building services engineeringundergraduates and postgraduates as well as being an ideal handbookfor building services engineers moving into designmanagement.Hinweis: Dieser Artikel kann nur an eine deutsche Lieferadresse ausgeliefert werden.
Jackie Portman is a Senior Building Services (MEP) Design Manager with over 25 years' experience in consultancy, contracting and project management in the UK and overseas. She has led the design management process in a range of projects in terms of complexity, size and uses: university complexes (libraries, archive buildings, state-of-the-art education and research facilities), healthcare projects (wards, laboratories, clinical areas), single and mixed-use commercial office complexes, residential developments and schools. Her particular areas of expertise are in consultant selection and appointments, managing the design and pre-construction activities, ensuring that commissioning management procedures are put in place, and closing out and handing over successful projects. The author is also experienced with instigating post-occupancy studies to understand how the building services engineering designs worked for the building occupants, operations and maintenance staff.
