概括
建筑中的包容性设计面临着采用挑战,通常与残疾有关. 促进包容性设计需要解决客户意识问题,并为从业者开发更好的工具,以确保建筑物中的可访问性和公平性.
科学领域:
- 综合行为科学,人体工程学和建筑社会科学的多学科研究.
背景情况:
- 包容性设计在产品,工程和用户体验设计中普遍存在,但在建筑实践中未得到充分利用.
- 在建筑中,包容性设计被狭地认为仅仅是针对残疾,限制了更广泛的采用.
- 专家和机构现有的宣传活动尚未完全转化为建筑实践.
研究的目的:
- 探索建筑设计从业者在实施包容性设计时面临的具体挑战.
- 找出可行的机会,促进在建筑中更广泛地采用包容性设计原则.
- 调查包容性设计在建筑环境中的意识和实际应用之间的差距.
主要方法:
- 这是一种多学科的方法,结合了行为科学,人体工程学和建筑社会科学的见解.
- 向114名建筑设计从业人员分发和分析了一份问卷.
- 对实践者关于包容性设计障碍和促进者的观点的定性和定量评估.
主要成果:
- 建筑从业人员报告说,客户对包容性设计的好处缺乏意识.
- 实践者认识到他们在倡导和教育客户关于包容性设计方面发挥的关键作用.
- 显然需要改进实践和工具,以支持包容性设计在整个建筑生命周期.
结论:
- 克服对包容性设计仅限于残疾人的有限看法是建筑采用的关键.
- 加强客户教育和从业者宣传对于促进建筑中的包容性设计至关重要.
- 开发特定的工具和完善设计/后设计流程是必要的,以确保建筑物支持多样性,公平,可访问性和包容性.

01:26Design Example: Sustainability in Concrete Building
167
As the construction industry moves towards more eco-friendly practices, concrete's adaptability and its ability to incorporate sustainable features make it a key material in the drive towards greener building solutions.
There are multiple approaches to achieve sustainability in a commercial concrete building. For instance, construct a concrete parking area under the building, utilizing pervious concrete paver blocks in open areas to facilitate rainwater collection through an underground...

01:14Design Example: Managing Concrete Workability
80
This example deals with managing the workability of concrete for a raft foundation project under hot weather conditions. Workability is crucial for ensuring the concrete is easy to place, compact, and finish. In this scenario, a slump test — a common method to measure the workability of fresh concrete — initially indicated low workability. This was attributed to the rapid water loss from the concrete mix, exacerbated by the high temperatures causing the course aggregates to heat up.

01:15Reinforced Brick Masonry
1.1K
Reinforced brick masonry is an advanced construction technique that enhances the structural integrity of brick walls by incorporating steel reinforcements. These reinforcements are either placed within the hollow cores of bricks or sandwiched between two layers of masonry, known as wythes, and are then secured in place with grout. Grout is a fluid mixture composed of Portland cement, aggregate, and water, providing the necessary bonding agent for the steel and brick.

01:27Movement Joints in Buildings
115
Movement joints in buildings are essential design elements that accommodate inevitable motions caused by various factors such as temperature changes, moisture content variations, and structural deflections. These motions, if not considered in design and construction, can lead to unsightly or dangerous damage. Movement joints are incorporated in different forms to manage these stresses and allow materials to move without causing distress.
The simplest type of movement joints, working joints, are...

01:21Barriers to Effective Communication II
3.6K
The barriers to effective communication also include cultural barriers, semantic barriers, gender barriers, and time constraints.
Cultural barriers:
Differences in values, beliefs, religion, knowledge, and tradition can significantly impact communication. Awareness of nonverbal cues is critical, especially when conversing with a patient from a different culture. What appears appropriate in one culture may be inappropriate in another.
Semantic barriers:
As a result of their tendency to use...

01:22Design Example: Distributing Reinforcements in Concrete Sections
86
The topic explores the practical aspects of adjusting steel reinforcements within a concrete beam section to meet specific design requirements. When designing a reinforced concrete beam, it is essential to distribute the steel reinforcements properly to ensure structural integrity and efficiency. The example provided details a scenario where a beam requires a total steel cross-section of 4 square inches. The engineer identifies that the available steel bars have a nominal diameter of 1.693...
