UCSD Student Academic Services Facility
UCSD SASF
|
San Diego Tool Day at the University of California San Diego (UCSD) will delve into the newly completed, award-winning Student Academic Services Facility (SASF) designed by Rob Wellington Quigley, FAIA. "The new Student Services Center anchors the heart of the university center neighborhood and defines and connects three different campus open spaces. It also enhances pedestrian circulation through a series of covered arcades and open porticos. The façade of the building is comprised of a curtain wall system with sun screens, allowing the building users flexibility in relation to views and sun protection." —Rob Wellington Quigley This all-day workshop provides a setting in which participants learn to use handheld instruments, conduct a building performance case study through structured methodology, develop hypothesis and investigation strategy formulation, are allowed behind-the-scenes building investigations, and make team presentations of study results to the workshop participants. Participants gain understanding of objective and subjective procedures for performing post-occupancy evaluations of building performance. The SASF is located on Meyers Drive off Gilman Drive in the center of campus. See UCSD campus map website: http://maps.ucsd.edu/Viewer.htm?Map=Visitor. Participants were encouraged to bring laptop computers, digital cameras, and lunch money. AIA/CES credits are available. Cost: $75 ($85 after March 16) Register for workshop 018 through ASES. Society of Building Science Educators (SBSE) members, university students and educators, and professional architects and engineers are encouraged to participate. |
