Outline and Purpose of the Course There are various facilities in buildings, including air conditioning system, water supply and drainage facilities, lighting equipment, and acoustic equipment. In this lecture, the outline of various building facilities is introduced, and the design theory of building facilities including planning and maintenance is explained.
Course Goals Acquisition of design theory including practical work such as planning and maintenance of building facilities.
Corresponding learning and educational goals: B. Expertise and basic knowledge, B4. Ability to understand the environmental engineering aspects of architecture.
Schedule and Contents Introduction, 1 week
what kind of equipment is in the building and what kind of concept it is designed from the viewpoint of the relationship with the building is outlined. In particular, the importance of air-conditioning equipment in the context of the global environment era is lectured from the standpoint of energy-saving design considering the life cycle, and the importance of comprehensive planning with buildings is lectured.

Design of lighting equipment, 2 weeks
The lecture will cover lighting methods, light sources used in architecture, clear vision, and perceptual brightness of a space. Also recent advances in lighting systems using daylight will be introduced.

Planning of electrical facilities, 1 week
The basic information such as power receiving system, electric equipment capacity, distribution main facilities, power/light electrical equipment in buildings are explained. Also the recent power generation/storage systems are introduced.

Acoustical design of equipment, 3 weeks
Design of electroacoustic/information equipment for recording, reproduction, broadcasting, and loudspeaker according to the purpose and scale of the building is explained with emphasis on ensuring clarity in room, preventing howling, precautions for emergency broadcasting, and measures against noise from equipment.

Design of fire safety system, 2 weeks
The schematics of fire safety system, such as fire detection, suppression and egress guidance, are introduced in connection with building design.

Seismic design of building equipment, 1 week
The state-of the-art of seismic damage to building equipment is introduced followed by principle of seismic design for them.

Maintenance and optimal operation, 1 week
Extending the service life of building equipment is very important from the viewpoint of the life cycle. The maintenance management using BEMS / HEMS, its effectiveness, and the periodic reporting system are lectured.

Introduction to actual design projects, 2 weeks
Examples of superior design of building equipment are introduced.

Lecture by a practitioner, 1 week
Special lecture is hold to listen to an end-cutting engineer to understand the actual state of practical design.

Evaluation of achievement, 1 week
Achievement on above items will be evaluated.
Evaluation Methods and Policy 【Evaluation method】
 Evaluation will be based on one written examination.
