| Question | Answer |
| 1-1 What is programming? | before design - info collected and analyzed |
| 1-2 According to the book Problem Seeking by William Pena, et al., what are the five steps in the programming process? | 1. establish goals 2. collect facts 3. uncover concepts 4. determine needs 5. state the problem |
| 1-3 How does a programmatic concept differ from a design concept? | The first is a performance requirement that is related to general methods of solving a problem or satisfying a need. The second is a specific physical response that is an attempt to satisfy the first. |
| 1-4 In terms of the programming process, what are the three components of flexibility? | Expandability, convertibility, versatility |
| 1-5 What four types of information should be included in every programming document? | 1. the client’s goals and objectives 2. required spaces and areas 3. required adjacencies between spaces 4. specific client requirements for budget, schedule, furnishings, equipment, and mechanical and electrical systems |
| 1-6 What is ergonomics? | The study of the relationship between human physiology and the physical environment. |
| 1-7 What is anthropometrics? | The practice of measuring the size, proportion, and range of motion of the human body. |
| 1-8 In what three ways does the human body lose heat? | Convection, evaporation, radiation |
| 1-9 What is the mean radiant temperature? | heat gains or loss through radiation. Average of surface temperatures in a room- ( occupant’s angle of exposure to these surfaces) and any sunlight present. |
| 1-10 What is territoriality? | Human behavior that attempts to lay claim to space and give a sense of selfidentity. |
| 1-11 What is proxemics? | degrees of spatial separation of peoples interaction. related to social, environmental, and cultural factors |
| 1-12 In proxemics, as described by Edward T. Hall, what are the names of the four distances (starting with the closest)? | 1. Intimate 2. Personal 2. Social 4. Public |
| 1-13 What theory did Abraham Maslow propose? | human needs, food and water, self-actualization, order, and beauty. |
| 1-14 Which of the table and seating configurations shown here is most appropriate for a committee meeting | Option B tends to foster cooperation, which makes it most appropriate for this type of activity. |
| 1-15 What voluntary, consensus-based national standard for developing high-performance, sustainable buildings was established by the USGBC? | Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) was established by this organization. |
| 1-16 What are the four possible ratings for the LEED certified project (highest to lowest)? | Platinum, Gold, Silver, Certified |
| 1-17 What is sustainable design? | various strategies to balance consumption of environmental resources and the renewal of those resources throughout the entire life cycle of a building |
| 1-18 In terms of the programming process, what are three limitations of behavior observation as a technique for gathering information? | 1. It cannot address why people are behaving the way they are. 2. It is only valid for one period of time. 3. It is accurate only when implemented by a skilled practitioner. |
| 1-19 What four methods of gathering information are used in the programming process? | interviews questionairres observation field surveys |
| 1-20 What are some authoritative sources for product information? | Manufacturers’ product catalogs Manufacturers’ websites Manufacturers’ representatives Trade associations Sweets Catalog |
| 1-21 What consultant is responsible for designing new openings in the floor of an existing building? | Structural engineer is responsible for designing openings in the floor of this type of building. |
| 1-22 What is a common way to determine the floor area required for an activity? | Multiply the area required per person by the number of people |
| 1-23 What range of percentages do space-planning efficiency ratios typically fall within? | These space planning ratios typically range from 60%-80% |
| 1-24 What is the net area or net assignable area of a building? | The actual area needed to accommodate specific functions, without taking into account primary circulation space or support space. |
| 1-25 In a leased space, what is considered to be rentable area? | The area available for assignment to a tenant within the perimeter walls of the tenant space, as well as private corridors, walls, and columns within the tenant space. This area may also include a proportionate share of public corridors, rest rooms, and elevator lobbies shared by all tenants. |
| 1-26 In a leased space, what is considered to be usable area? | The area actually used for the space’s intended purpose, in addition to circulation spaces within the leased space and partitions and columns within the space. |
| 1-27 What is the efficiency factor of a leased space? | The ratio of net area to usable area in the leased space. |
| 1-28 What type of workflow is represented by this diagram? | Departmental workflow |
| 1-29 What two things must a designer know about a space before the necessary number of exits can be determined? | The floor area and the occupancy group must be known |
| 1-30 Which consultant must assist the interior designer when a project requires the installation of heavy equipment? | A structural engineer must assist the interior designer in determining the installation requirements for this type of equipment. |
| 1-31 Who may design a building’s sprinkler system? | This building component may be designed by either a mechanical engineer, a fire protection engineer, or in some cases a fire protection contractor. |
| 1-32 What client-approved document should be available to the designer before the schematic design process begins? | Program |
