2
Interior Designer must know: Client’s priorities How space will be used Where equipment is located Location of phones, computers etc COMMUNICATIONS AND CONTROLS
3
Interior Designer must communicate with: Architect Mechanical Engineer Contractor COMMUNICATIONS AND CONTROLS Electric Engineer Trades
4
Development of a power plan by an architect and/or interior designer includes: Telephone and communication systems Computer network Power distribution COMMUNICATIONS AND CONTROLS
5
Signal Systems - All control systems that send and receive electronically coded information SIGNAL SYSTEMS
6
Includes: Fire detection and alarm systems Telephones Intercoms Broadcast TV with UHF and VHF Cable TV Closed circuit TV – security Satellite TV Paging systems SIGNAL SYSTEMS
7
Includes: Sound systems Master clock Bell systems HVAC controls Data transmission Assistive listening devices - ADA SIGNAL SYSTEMS
8
National Electric Code sets standards Primary problem – fire hazard by potential spread of fire along cables or circuits SIGNAL SYSTEMS
9
NEC regulates: Type of cable or wire Proper grounding procedures SIGNAL SYSTEMS
10
Interior Designers Role: Communicate with client’s chosen provider/installer Communicate needs with outside suppliers Be aware of the location of the system Special considerations for system requirements Know correct terminology SIGNAL SYSTEMS
11
Premise Wiring - System of raceways, boxes and outlets dedicated to communications PREMISE WIRING
12
Communications and data wiring cannot share the same raceway with electrical power wiring TV and closed circuit connections must be shielded Telephone lines cannot be grouped with communications, data, TV etc Surface mounted raceways permit access PREMISE WIRING
13
Cabling Open Office Furniture Systems Ease of cable entry into furniture from floor, ceiling, perimeter walls and building support columns Cable management system – floor or belt-line OPEN OFFICE CABLING
14
Cabling Open Office Furniture Systems Horizontal and vertical routing Separation of power from communication cables Ease of access to distribution points OPEN OFFICE CABLING
15
Connecting the Building to Systems Furniture 1.Ceiling Entry 2.Floor Entry 3.Perimeter Wall and Column Entry Cables must be 1’ from fluorescent ballasts Drop vertically into furniture through a conduit housed in a pole or ceiling feed
16
OPEN OFFICE CABLING Connecting the Building to Systems Furniture 1.Ceiling Entry 2.Floor Entry 3.Perimeter Wall and Column Entry
17
OPEN OFFICE CABLING Connecting the Building to Systems Furniture 1.Ceiling Entry 2.Floor Entry 3.Perimeter Wall and Column Entry Very common Panel selection must run parallel to wall
18
Central Switching Rooms/Areas Required in each building Where incoming phone service is connected to the building’s phone service Typically the basement or ground floor Located close to telephone service entry TELEPHONE SYSTEMS
19
Central Switching Rooms/Areas Number of phones serviced and size of switching panel determine room size One per floor in multi-story buildings, stacked Require lighting and electrical service Data/computer ports TELEPHONE SYSTEMS
20
Communication Cables Transmission wiring for telephone systems runs in conduits or sleeves Under-floor or ceiling raceways most popular System generally needs vertical access shafts TELEPHONE SYSTEMS
21
Communication Cables Communication cables terminate at telephone outlet ADA requirement of 15” aff TELEPHONE SYSTEMS
22
Security systems – closed circuit TV Banks, retail, parking lots, corridors etc Requires adequate uniform lighting Cable TV – outdoor antenna, satellite dish, cable company, or closed circuit TELEVISION SYSTEMS
23
Special needs populations, apartments, nursing homes etc Provision of a call button in each bed and bath area and corridor EMERGENCY CALL SYSTEMS
24
Automatic building controls use timers, sensors, or programmable devices to control building equipment INTELLIGENT BUILDINGS Systems that are considered ‘Stand Alone’ are not integrated into a larger building automation system
25
Intelligent buildings provide a productive and cost effective environment through their: Structure Systems Services Management …and maintains relationships between these four elements INTELLIGENT BUILDINGS
