Efekan ÇAKIR - 160209005

Submission Requirements -Building type should be chosen. (except house or housing) -Research that is contains space types or space standarts or requirements, should be done . -Generic bubble diagram should be created. -Value matrix for the building type should be created. -Net and Gross Ares Calcula�ons for the proposed building type study, should be conducted.


Building Type: Data Center (Automated Data Processing)

Data Center Classifica�on Tier 4 data center cer�fica�on typically serve enterprise corpora�ons and provide the following: 99.995% up�me per year, 2N+1 fully redundant infrastructure (the main difference between �er 3 and �er 4 data centers), 96-hour power outage protec�on, 26.3 minutes of annual down�me. Tier 3 data center specifica�ons are u�lized by larger businesses and feature: 99.982% up�me , No more than 1.6 hours of down�me per year, N+1 fault tolerant providing at least 72-hour power outage protec�on The benefits of a Tier 2 facility include: 99.749% Up�me, Par�al redundancy in power and cooling, Experience 22 hours of down�me per year Tier 1 data center requirements are generally u�lized by small businesses and feature: 99.671%, Up�me no redundancy, 28.8 Hours of down�me per year.

Building Construc�on Criteria Space A�ributes Func�onal / Opera�onal Occupancy: ADP Mainframe spaces fall under Business Occupancy B2, with Sprinkler protected construc�on. The GSA Acous�cal Class B2 for spaces with concentra�ons of noisy equipment. Raised floors: Raised floor is the preferred system for distribu�on of cri�cal services (power, voice, data, and HVAC) in ADP Mainframe space types. Raised floors for ADP Mainframe may have low-pressure, high induc�on diffusers and should be constructed of concrete filled metal pans at 24" modules with pedestal and stringer support, with intermediate support. Technological connec�vity: Conduit and outlet boxes are installed for fiber-op�c main horizontal and ver�cal backbone system and high speed communica�on lines for servers. Dual path service lines for power: Dual path service lines ensure a constant power supply, which is cri�cal to the opera�ons of ADP Mainframe. HVAC with redundant components: Computer equipment operates within specific ranges of air quality, temperature, and rela�ve humidity levels. Significant varia�ons of these levels in the ADP Mainframe environment could cause disrup�ons in equipment opera�on and decrease the life of the equipment. To ensure proper opera�on of the ADP Mainframe spaces, redundant mechanical systems with service provided 24 hours per day and humidity control are typically installed. Separate thermostat controls should be provided in each room, even in areas of 24-hour opera�on, which can be overridden by the building automa�on system. Also, copier rooms, printer rooms, and service units should have 100% direct exhaust to maintain good indoor air quality.

Placement of Spaces Area A has some ini�al appeal for placing the Data Center—it is rectangular and in close proximity to the building's loading dock. Unfortunately, there is an irregular space in the southwest corner, including a curved wall. Area A has no desirable growth path, either. The building's main lobby and a stairwell limit expansion to the south, while the walls to the north and west are at the end of the building. It is possible to grow eastward into Area B, but only by blocking the main corridor that runs north-south through the building and narrowing into the space between the stairwell to the north and the loading dock to the south. Place a server environment in Area A only if a more suitable space isn't available. Area B is the worst loca�on of the three for a Data Center. Although the shape of Area B is good and it, too, is near the loading dock, the space is smaller than areas A or C and has an external door. More troubling, Area B lacks a good growth path. The space can't expand past the building's exterior walls to the north or east, and is blocked to the south because of the loading dock. Area B can conceivably expand westward, but that has the same drawbacks as trying to expand Area A—blocking the building corridor and having to wrap around the north stairwell. Locate a server environment in Area B only if no future growth is expected and no be�er space is available. Area C is the most desirable loca�on for a Data Center. Area C is a large rectangle with no irregular shapes, and is close to the loading dock. Area C also has no external doors or windows, and there is a workable growth path to the south through exis�ng office cubicles.
