ファシリティマネジメント概念を用いた都市空間の計画・設計支援に関する研究 : 大学キャンパス計画をモデルとした可能性の検討

Through the study of campus planning, planning issue are changing recently. The reason why change is that the request of society, re-evaluation of relation to campus and surrounding area, and concept of making use of campus to form amenity urban space. It is difficult of making plan, because of change of concept, and existence of complicated planning information. Facility management (FM) is supposed to useful way of thinking like these situation. Our goal is confirmation that importance of the concept of FM to campus planning, and demonstrate the possibility to apply the concept to campus planning.

A Study on Continuity of Campus and Surrounding Area according to the User's Evaluation

Through the study of campus planning, we've found that open spase is one of main principle of organization of campus, and that is important framework when the planning phase of re-organization of urban space. And also we've found that open space have planning role of organizing and connection space. In this study, we surveyed people who use open space at campus and surrounding area, and analyzed their evaluation and their behavior in open space. We found close connection between type of space and behavior and evaluation. Also, we found complementarity of campus and surrounding area from this connection. In this result, we grasped the condition of planning when re-organizing campus and urban area using open space.

Academic libraries and campus computing costs

Suggests that many universities and their libraries are not prepared to meet the expanding costs for computing and networking required in today’s technologically‐oriented environment. Southern Methodist University is attempting to do something about this problem. It began with hiring of consultants to help the campus plan for upgrading both administrative and academic computing and equipping the campus for improved electronic communications and networking within and outside the campus. This “re‐engineering” process included development of the mission and principles of computing, compiled with the help of the campus community. Focus groups set priorities and a structure has been put in place to address some of the priority administrative needs of the campus for the immediate future. Part of the process was to identify computing expenditures across the campus over a three year period so that future funding needs could be anticipated. Discusses the campus planning process and places some emphasis on how the process related to central university libraries, its planning process, expenditures, problems to address, and future needs.

Optimization Model for Parking in the Campus Environment

Parking has long been recognized as a major land use problem in campus planning. Anyone who drives an automobile appreciates the difficulties of finding a parking space in areas of intense academic, administrative, student residential, and recreational activities. This shortage of parking spaces near activity centers has worsened as automobile ownership and registration on campus have increased. The problem is more pronounced and the solution more critical on large urban campuses located in or at the periphery of the central business district. An approach to solving the chronic and prevalent parking problem in the campus environment is addressed. An institution-based and evaluative model is introduced as a tool to determine how best to use existing land in the competitive and oftentimes policy-driven university campus environment. Practical solutions that will assist in the proper planning and design of campus parking spaces and facilities are also developed. The optimization model design takes into account the major operational and site characteristics, as well as parameters that traffic engineers and planners consider conducive to optimal parking. The model will help traffic engineers, campus planners, and university administrators maximize land on the university campus. It will also answer the question of what principles should be adopted in the proper planning of facilities for the vehicle at rest within the context of a diminishing campus environment in general and inadequate funding for facilities renewal and maintenance in particular.

Carl F. Gould: a life in architecture and the arts

Architect Carl F. Gould (1873-1939) was one of the major shapers of modern Seattle. In the early part of the century he was responsible for some of the city's most distinguished homes and public buildings. He and his partner Charles Herbert Bebb developed the University of Washington campus plan and designed and executed many of its finest buildings, including the renowned Suzzallo Library and the Henry Art Gallery. Gould founded the university's Department of Architecture; was active in the Washington State Chapter of the American Institute of Architects and the Seattle Fine Arts Society (and its successor the Seattle Art Institute); and was a member of the city's first planning commission. In this first biography of Gould the architect, teacher, civic leader, and family man, authors T. William Booth and William H. Wilson trace his life and work during almost thirty years of architectural practice in Seattle. Utilizing numerous drawings held in family, university, and Seattle Art Museum collections, the authors explore the full range of Gould's work, from student Beaux-Arts projects to over 150 extant buildings, and other important though unbuilt projects. Gould's homes and commercial buildings are profusely illustrated. Booth and Wilson follow the evolution of Gould's ideas through his publications, lecture notes, correspondence, diaries, speeches, and public activities. Gould moved from New York to Seattle in 1908, when the city was undergoing vigorous expansion in population, industry, and civic awareness. Well traveled and educated, the 34-year-old Gould brought with him a cosmopolitan sensibility, a gregarious nature, a highly developed civic consciousness, and talent. In the first years of his practice, domestic structures in traditional style formed the major portion of his work. His noble interiors, naturally lighted and elegantly proportioned, remain among the most satisfactory of living spaces. Essentially a regionalist and traditionalist in the design of homes, in the last decade of his life Gould embraced modernism for commercial structures. These affirm his skill in utilizing new concepts and materials. His consummate achievement in the modern idiom was the Seattle Art Museum in Volunteer Park. This book explores Gould's intellectual and aesthetic commitment to ideas he considered essential to the life of architecture. He advocated the concept of beauty as fundamental in architecture, comprising elements of balance, site appropriateness, suitability for the client, generosity of spirit, and a human response of ease and delight in the entire architectural ensemble. Gould worked in the great age of the generalist--he concerned himself with site, landscape, and interior design as well as with the architectural envelope. Throughout his career he searched for elements of an American and regional style. This biography reviews Gould's life and career, capturing the setting in which he worked and thrived, and the vision and sense of obligation that supported his private and public actions.

Effects of Site-Based Management on the Instructional Program

Given the apparent mixed results reported by previous studies (David, 1989; Hellinger, Murphy and Hausman, 1992; Jenni and Mauriel, 1990; Malen, Ogawa, and Kranz, 1990), this exploratory study attempted to examine the extent to which schools using a site-based management approach were engaged in decision making associated with curriculum and instruction, what roles teachers were playing, and what strategies were employed to assure the quality of the instructional program. It was conducted following a qualitative approach in order to understand respondents’ perspectives (Patton, 1990). Data were collected by means of extensive interviews with board members, district office personnel, principals, teachers, and parents from six school districts. These school districts were selected based on their reputation for having adopted a decentralized approach to school management. The findings of this study suggest that the participating schools are progressively addressing curriculum and instruction themes as they are developmentally ready. It was found that whereas schools have considerable freedom, school districts are providing “curriculum framework and guidelines” to assure an overall direction for the school district. Teachers are engaging in a variety of “non-teaching” roles as they introduce curriculum and instruction changes. Schools are using different strategies to maintain the quality of the instructional program, with staff development being the most common strategy. Needs assessment, campus planning, formative evaluation, and summative evaluation are other strategies used by these schools. Apparently, site-based management schools are making progress in addressing curriculum and instruction to meet their students’ needs; however, there is a need to study further how curriculum and instruction changes affect student academic achievement. Additionally, the impact of the changing roles of teachers on their teaching performance and on instruction should be studied.

建築設計プロセスにおけるCG表現の連続的利用に関する研究 : 大学キャンパスの設計事例を通して

Computer graphics came to be applied to architecture or urban design because of its particular visual presentation and constant support for design process. This paper shows the example of G. G. presentations used in Obama campus planning of Fukui Prefecturel University, and describes relationship between design process and C. G. presentation. The first analysis is the classification of architectural informations visualised in C. G. with regard to character and scale.' The second analysis is the classification of C. G. presentations with regard to the design items in Obama campus planning. The result is the evaluation of CG as a design tool with respect to constant support for each condition of design process.

The impact of a chief planning officer on the administrative environment for planning

Institution-wide planning, to be effective, must have the support of key administrators. Presidents, vice-presidents, deans, and directors must feel that sufficient consensus can be reached on explicit goals to make comprehensive planning possible and worthwhile. While much has been written about the importance of CEO leadership in gaining broad support for planning, little has been said about the role of the chief planning officer in this regard. This paper, based on a national survey of administrators' views of planning, studies the relationship between having a chief planning officer and administrators' perceptions of campus planning. Its intended audience includes all those interested in institutional planning.

Inserting the Library into a Broader Campus Planning Process

The execution of a planning process for a library system is not always neat and tidy, particularly if a new dean of library services enters the scene with various processes already under way and immediate problems which must be given priority. This article discusses how the ISU Library staff is trying to mesh its own internal planning process with that of the university planning and program review which has been under way for several years.

Campus: An American Planning Tradition

Winner, Alice Davis Hitchcock Award, Society of Architectural Historians. Campus is an exciting guide to a distinctive type of architectural planning, one that has reflected changing educational ideals from Colonial times to the present, and - as the embodiment of the ideal community - has often expressed utopian social visions of America. Organized chronologically, Campus looks at new patterns of open planning at Harvard, William and Mary, and Yale; the ambitious scale and dramatic setting of schools such as the University of Virginia; the park-like campuses of the land-grant colleges that represented a democratic reaction against elitist traditions; the Beaux-Arts campuses of Columbia University and the universities of California and Minnesota; the enclosed Gothic quadrangle at Universities like Princeton; and at the more recent flexible and dynamic campus plans that are a response to new educational needs. Among the architects and planners whose work is examined are Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Henry Latrobe, Alexander Jackson Davis, Frederick Law Olmsted, Ralph Adams Cram, Cope & Stewardson, Charles Z. Klauder, James Gamble Rogers, Frank Lloyd Wright, Eero Saarinen, Skidmore Owings and Merrill, William Turnbull, and Charles Moore. Paul Venable Turner is Professor of Architectural History at Stanford University. An Architectural History Foundation Book.
