Mechanical Equipment of Buildings. However, the fundamentals of building cost, life-cycle cost, and construction estimating are not covered in coursework.” Progress since the 2006 Visit: Improved coverage was addressed in revised course syllabi and assignments from Fall 2006 onward in: • required coursework at the Advanced level Arch 542 Professional Practice Arch 488 Computer Applications for Professional Practice • required Design Studios at the Advanced Level Arch 513 Comprehensive Project Design Studio The NAAB Response to Roger Williams University’s 2007 Annual Report found this condition “satisfied, with no further reporting required”, based on information we provided in the Annual Report process. Since 2009, in order to further strengthen our coverage of more collaborative models of practice facilitated by an increased reliance on computer technologies (BIM), we have introduced Arch 488 Computer Applications for Professional Practice. This course, together with Arch 542 Professional Practice, work in tandem to address this issue more fully than we had previously sought in Arch 513 Comprehensive Project Design Studio. Arch 488 includes costing analysis exercises where our students work with Construction Management students to test different methods of costing that may be utilized at various stages of the design and documentation process. The students work collaboratively to explore Sustainability, Life Cycle Costing and Values Engineering alternatives throughout this course. In addition Construction Materials and Assemblies II (Arch 331) looks at the long range Sustainability implications of decisions made during the design process by looking at issues of embedded energy, right sizing, flexible/adaptable design and ease of disassembly/reassembly. Responses to Causes of Concern Causes of Concern in the 2006 Visiting Team Report were identified in the following areas: • Social Diversity • Physical Resources/Information Resources • Life Safety Principles • Student Site Analysis/Environmental Orientation • Mechanical Systems in relation to 12.22 Building Systems Integration, 12.29 Comprehensive Design a. Social Diversity 2006 NAAB Visiting Team Report: “The architecture program and the University has established a very supportive and positive environment in which students can learn; and faculty can teach and work. However, a clearly written Diversity Policy is NOT in place for communication and distribution to current and prospective faculty, students and staff.”
Progress Since the 2006 Visit: The School in concert with the University’s Inclusive Excellence Initiatives underway from 2005-onward developed its own Inclusive Excellence Statement in Summer 2006, which was submitted to NAAB in our 2007 Annual Report. The Inclusive Excellence Statement has been an element of the school’s organization since. The NAAB Response to Roger Williams University’s 2007 Annual Report found this condition “satisfied, no further reporting required. The statement on Inclusive Excellence was much appreciated”, based on information we provided in the Annual Report process. The School’s Inclusive Excellence Policy remains in place, accompanied by a 2011-17 School of Architecture, Art and Historic Preservation Diversity Plan. This 2011-17 cycle will be followed up with the next cycle for 2017-2023. b. Physical Resources / Information Resources 2006 NAAB Visiting Team Report: “The Architecture Library mezzanine and second floor do not meet accessibility codes. The team is concerned that sources of funding and a schedule for the proposed Phase 3 library expansion have not been determined.” Progress Since the 2006 Visit: The university response to address this concern has necessarily evolved since the 2006 accreditation visit. In summer 2006, Shepley Bulfinch Richardson and Abbot (SBRA) Architects completed a library/information resources master planning study for Roger Williams’ University Libraries. The study found that is was neither desirable nor possible to consolidate the Architecture Library into the Main Library. This finding effectively eliminated library consolidation as a potential means to address accessibility concerns in the Architecture Library. From approximately the same time period, a proposal to include an addition to the Architecture Library as a project within an overall university capital campaign was not endorsed at the university level. Subsequent proposals from the SAAHP to fund the design and construction of an elevator to serve the mezzanine and second floor as an annual capital expenditure project have also not been approved. A shelving redesign completed in 2009 was able to address the issue of collection growth for a three year period, but was not intended or able to address access to the mezzanine and second floor. Since the 2006 accreditation visit, a procedure to provide access to the collection for disabled individuals has continuously been maintained (via a staff retrieval service and/or access to the second floor via the SAAHP building elevator, please refer to section 1.2.5 for complete description). The University Library and the SAAHP are currently exploring options to develop near-term solutions to space issues in the Architecture Library, including: 1. Relocation of the RWU Visual Resources Center from the Architecture Library to the Main Library. 2. Moving less frequently used materials to off-site storage and providing retrieval through the HELIN delivery service. 3. Moving to the Main Library collections the second copies of any titles in the Architecture Library that are owned in duplicate. These solutions by themselves, however, will not provide sufficient space relief to accommodate the Architecture Library on a single floor as a means to meet accessibility standards.
