A Functional Building .






Every building is designed for certain purposes.A functional building-whether a small house or a gigantic office building-fulfills those purposes by serving the needs of its users in a pleasant and convenient way.The building is also designed to provide adequate heating, lighting, sources of power, and, in some cases, air conditioning.

Today, energy conservation has become an important consideration in architectural planning.For example, architects may use large windows or even entire walls made of glass to help heat a building with solar energy.

Many activities may take place within a building.In a house, such activities include eating, sleeping, bathing, and entertaining.Each activity has different requirements in regard to the location, size, lighting and accessibility of the rooms in which the activity occurs.For example, a bedroom is a private room and should be set off from the rest of the living spaces.But everyone in a house uses the dining room, and so it should be more centrally located.

An office building involves a much more complex arrangement of space than a house.The architect must make sure that hundreds or perhaps thousands of workers can move quickly through the various parts of the building.In addition, visitors should be able to enter and leave the building easily.Parts of the structure may have to house special equipment, and a large amount of storage space may be required.The architect must also consider the activities that take place outside the building.For example, the building may require parking facilities.In addition, the architect may have to plan traffic patterns so that automobiles and other vehicles can approach and leave the building without crossing many lanes of traffic.Driveways must be wide enough for fire trucks to enter, and loading docks must be the proper height for delivery trucks.
