1.1This classification covers pairs of scales for classifying an aspect of the serviceability of an office facility, that is, the capability of an office facility to meet certain possible requirements for performance to support typical office work.
1.2Within that aspect of serviceability, each pair of scales, shown in Fig. 1 through Fig. 6, are for classifying one topic of serviceability. Each paragraph in an Occupant Requirement Scale (see Fig. 1 through Fig. 6) summarizes one level of serviceability on that topic, which occupants might require. The matching entry in the Facility Rating Scale (see Fig. 1 through Fig. 6) is a translation of the requirement into a description of certain features of a facility which, taken in combination, indicate that the facility is likely to meet that level of required serviceability.

1.3The entries in the Facility Rating Scale (see Fig. 1 through Fig. 6) are indicative and not comprehensive. They are for quick scanning to estimate approximately, quickly, and economically, how well an office facility is likely to meet the needs of one or another type of occupant group over time. The entries are not for measuring, knowing, or evaluating how an office facility is performing.
1.4This classification can be used to estimate the level of serviceability of an existing facility. It can also be used to estimate the serviceability of a facility that has been planned but not yet built, such as one for which single-line drawings and outline specifications have been prepared.
1.5This classification indicates what would cause a facility to be rated at a certain level of serviceability but does not state how to conduct a serviceability rating nor how to assign a serviceability score. That information is found in Practice E1334. The scales in this classification are complimentary to and compatible with Practice E1334. Each requires the other.
1.6The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No other units of measurement are included in this standard.
1.6.1Exception—Inch-pound units are used in Fig. 6.
1.7This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
