3. Building system or Building service
• Building services or systems are the system
installed in buildings to make them
comfortable, functional, efficient and safe.
7. Building science
studies the interaction of all the building
systems with architectural design and we need
it because:
• It tells us how buildings actually work
• It tells us how to design them, build them,
diagnose them, fix them and operate them.
8. Responsibility of architects concerning
Building science
Since architects are the creator of buildings,
they need to
• consider each and every building systems
while designing.
• communicate with other building system
professionals during design and construction
phase of buildings.
• to do so, they should have the knowledge of
building system sciences.
9. Control of the external
environmental impact on building
• The internal factors include indoor temperature,
humidity, air quality, and noise, whereas the external
factors are metrological, air pollution, noise, and soil
moisture.
10. Integrated
Building design approach
Integrated design :-
• Design of a building which considers whole
building design including architectural, structural
engineering, passive solar building
design and HVAC.
• The approach may also integrate building
lifecycle management and a greater consideration
of the end users of the building.
• The aim of integrated building design is often to
produce sustainable architecture.
11. Cont…
• Integrated Building design approach is a
holistic approach to high performance building
design and construction.
• It relies upon every member of the project
team sharing a vision of sustainability, and
working collaboratively to implement
sustainability goals at appropriate phases
during the project.
12. Assignment 1: Building Services in
Public Buildings
• Select a multi-storey building
• perform an analysis on building services
systems found in multi-storey buildings.
• Present your analysis both in narration and
design.
• Show your findings through design for each of
the systems analyzed in the selected building.
