| Content Summary | Typical building programs rest on assigning a certain amount of square footage per function or space type. Years of architectural research have concluded to some general attributes and characteristics that provide the groundwork for such an approach. Architects have been practicing this method, creating in many cases their own ‘interpretation’. While the aesthetics of their buildings differ significantly, every solution is closely related to the surface distribution and the design principles directed by the seminal work of Ernst Neufert. This paper introduces the concept of the "Dynamic Building Program" as a tool to address the aforementioned issues and moreover to include time as a factor that can greatly affect the spatial requirements of any building program. This new method regards human activity as a basic component, based on the fact that it has scarcely been noted to present an 'average'. Since the surface and volume requirements within a structure are changing over time, the qualities a building must uphold could not be secured through a single value as time passes by (day or season). Manifested through a digital application, the presented process is controlled by the designers and allows them to identify the critical parameters for their scheme, to follow them in time and to create a visual representation of how the building program requirements change over time. The application incorporates all the parameters that affect a building both quantitatively and qualitatively and simulates their fluctuations based on the designer’s observations and input. The capabilities provided by contemporary software development tools removed quite a bit of the complexity involved in the study of diverse spatial characteristics and relationships, and provided a fertile ground for including parameters such as "People’s presence,""Type of activity" and "Related activity spaces." Each parameter can be given a range of values that affect the overall requirements and change the representation accordingly. An increase in the number of people that perform an intensive task, for example, requires more surface for functional reasons and either a larger volume or bigger openings to facilitate ventilation. The proposed application was designed in such a way so that after inserting the proper input, it produces an animation that reveals to the designers the spatial and temporal fluctuations and especially the critical deviations that highlight the necessity for a transformable building. The Dynamic Building Program is an enhancement of the traditional method and while useful for every architect it is essential for the design of an adaptable structure which can actively and successfully address the time-related issues. | en |
