  • The Year Ahead
    11:00 -12:00
    2022.01.03

    Standards Michigan Offices

    Today we take a retrospective look at 2021 and a prospective look at 2022.  Use the login credentials at the upper right of our home page.

    All day
    2022.01.04

     

    “Etude pour les constructeurs” 1950 Fernand Leger

    We follow the construction spend rate of the US education industry; using the US Census Bureau Construction Spending figures released the first day of every month.  We encourage our colleagues in the education facilities industry to respond to Census Bureau-retained data gathering contractors in order to contribute to the accuracy of the report.

  • Recycling
    11:00 -12:00
    2022.01.06

    The Impact of E-Waste / Student Art Guide

    Certain requirements must be met for recycling to be economically feasible and environmentally effective. These include an adequate source of recyclates, a system to extract those recyclates from the waste stream, a nearby factory capable of reprocessing the recyclates, and a potential demand for the recycled products. These last two requirements are often overlooked—without both an industrial market for production using the collected materials and a consumer market for the manufactured goods, recycling is incomplete and in fact only “collection”.

    Today at 11 AM/E we examine the state of best practice literature – including government regulations — that apply to education communities.

7
  • Fine Arts
    11:00 -12:00
    2022.01.07

    Today at 15:00 UTC we drill into the technical specifics that contribute to the safety and sustainability of spaces used for the teaching, practice and display of the fine arts.  These occupancies are typically at greater risk than classrooms because they usually contain volatile fluids for artistic painting or biologic specimen preservation, kilns for pottery, fabrics and related machinery for teaching fashion design and practice.

    2022.01.11

    Universität Duisburg-Essen

    Today at 11 AM/ET we update our understanding of best practice literature relevant to the information and communication technology enterprises in education communities.  Our online meetings coincides with the day of two IEEE Education & Healthcare Facilities Committee teleconferences at 14:00 Central European time and 2:00 PM Eastern time in the Americas.  Open to everyone.  Use the login credentials at the upper right of our home page.

  • Hello World!
    11:00 -12:00
    2022.01.12

    Today we explain our collaboration with other like-minded units in education communities in the US and other nations.  In most cases we conform to participation requirements set by ANSI US Technical Advisory Groups but we also have liaison with other universities in the European Union who conform to the participation requirements of their own national standards bodies.

  • Mobility
    11:00 -12:00

  • Elevators
    11:00 -12:00
    2022.01.24

    University of Wisconsin Stadium Elevator

    Many education communities have 100’s of elevators and escalators.   This is a difficult space for driving costs down (because of strong manufacturer and labor presence) but we will give the “old college try”

25
  • Power
    10:00 -11:00
    2022.01.25

    Thomas Edison’s Menlo Park Laboratory

     

    Today we run a status check on best practice in electrical power system design, construction, operations and maintenance that support the learning, research and medical clinical delivery enterprises in education communities.

    Our colloquia on this topic coincide with the two monthly IEEE Education & Healthcare Facilities Committee teleconferences at 14:00 Central European time and 2:00 PM Eastern time in the Americas.

    Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore Student Art

    Innovation – Standardization – Commoditization run along a continuum.  Today we unpack some of the ideas that hasten (and prohibit) leading practice discovery; how quickly goods and services become a “human right”; why all of this is relevant to education communities and why some believe that commoditization is a myth.

    From the Wikipedia

    In business literature, commoditization is defined as the process by which goods that have economic value and are distinguishable in terms of attributes (uniqueness or brand) end up becoming simple commodities in the eyes of the market or consumers. It is the movement of a market from differentiated to undifferentiated price competition and from monopolistic competition to perfect competition. Hence, the key effect of commoditization is that the pricing power of the manufacturer or brand owner is weakened: when products become more similar from a buyer’s point of view, they will tend to buy the cheapest.

  • Media
    11:00 -12:00
    2022.01.27

    We review best practice literature in the field of audio, video and multimedia systems and equipment greatly expanded in the Massive Online Open Online Course  and #LearnFromHome zietgeist.  These titles include specification of the performance, methods of measurement for consumer and professional equipment and their application in systems and its interoperability with other systems or equipment.  Multimedia is the integration of any form of audio, video, graphics, data and telecommunication and integration includes the production, storage, processing, transmission, display and reproduction of such information.
