This document discusses several areas of practice for facilities maintenance and building consulting: facilities maintenance support, building testing and commissioning, building environment certification, and forensic architecture. It provides details on each area, such as the purpose of commissioning being to ensure building systems are designed, installed, tested and can be operated as intended. Examples of certified green buildings in the Philippines are also listed.

AND COMMISSIONING, BUILDING ENVIRONMENT CERTIFICATION , FORENSIC ARCHITECTURE FACILITIES MAINTENANCE SUPPORT The consulting architect in this area of practice provides the owner/client with means and measures to ensure the proper function and maintenance of the building/ structure and site after final inspection. BUILDING TESTING AND COMMISSIONING The Architects in this area of practice recommends the systematic process of ensuring that a building/ structure array of systems are planned, designed, installed and tested to perform according to the design intent and the buildings operational needs. If the building materials, equipment and systems are not installed properly or not operating as intended, the effectiveness, efficiency, productivity and other benefits of high performance plans/design will not be achieved. WHAT IS BUILDING COMMISSIONING? It is a systematic quality assurance and documented process of ensuring that building system are designed, installed, tested and capable of being operated and maintained to perform interactively according to the design intent and the owner’s operational needs. BUILDING ENVIRONMENT CERTIFICATION The building environment rating system is needed to evaluate the environmental performance of a building and to encourage market migration towards sustainable design. The rating system must be: Credit- based, allowing projects to earn points for environmental- friendly use of a building/structure and actions taken during planning, designing, construction and occupancy. flexible, such as projects need to meet identical requirements to quality. consensus-based and market driven in order to acceleration the development and implementation of the green building practices. The consulting Architect in this area of practice must have much more than the basic knowledge of Green Architecture and Environmental and/or Sustainable Design and sufficient knowledge of the governing laws and Environmental investigation processes and procedures under International protocols such as the Philippine Solid Waste, Clean Air and Clean Water Acts, DENR administrative issuances and the like EXAMPLES: Arya Residences (BGC, Taguig) Citi Plaza (Taguig) Union Bank Olongapo Branch Unilever Bayanihan Project (Taguig) Zuellig Building ( Makati City) Texas Instrument Philippines Clark( Clark Freefort Zone, Pampanga Pioneer House Cagayan De Oro Bench tower ( The Fort, Taguig City) Wells Fargo Center (Building A, B, C) Taguig City FORENSIC ARCHITECTURE The Architects in this area of practice undertakes a scientific study on a built environment’s well-being which allows the Achitect to focus on the ways in which the building/structure can best maintain itself and prolong its life in a cost-efficient manner, and dinally provide recommendations to the owner/client. The forensic study may include: determination as to the causes of the building, building component and/or building material deterioration. the causes of observed building deffieciencies e.g. non-compliance with planning and building laws, deviations from the original use or function of spaces. research on possible faulty activities and operation during the project implementation phase. determination of faulty plan/design and/ or construction methodology.
