1、Designation:E166095a(Reapproved 2012)An American National StandardStandard Classification forServiceability of an Office Facility for Support for OfficeWork1,2This standard is issued under the fixed designation E1660;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adop
2、tion 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 for classifyingan aspect of the serv
3、iceability of an office facility,that is,thecapability of an office facility to meet certain possible require-ments for performance to support typical office work.1.2 Within that aspect of serviceability,each pair of scales,shown in Fig.1 through Fig.6,are for classifying one topic ofserviceability.
4、Each paragraph in an Occupant RequirementScale(see Fig.1 through Fig.6)summarizes one level ofserviceability on that topic,which occupants might require.The matching entry in the Facility Rating Scale(see Fig.1through Fig.6)is a translation of the requirement into adescription of certain features of
5、 a facility which,taken incombination,indicate that the facility is likely to meet thatlevel of required serviceability.1.3 The entries in the Facility Rating Scale(see Fig.1through Fig.6)are indicative and not comprehensive.They arefor quick scanning to estimate approximately,quickly,andeconomicall
6、y,how well an office facility is likely to meet theneeds of one or another type of occupant group over time.Theentries are not for measuring,knowing,or evaluating how anoffice facility is performing.1.4 This classification can be used to estimate the level ofserviceability of an existing facility.It
