In the first part of this series of articles, which you can read by clicking here, we introduced you to the main international regulations on ergonomic design in control rooms. Now, we want to delve into ISO 11064-4. ISO 11064-4: Workplace dimensions It has a first introductory part that establishes
Professionals working in the field of infrastructure construction often find that different spaces have specific needs. For example, an emergency room has very different needs than an office and a surgery room is not designed the same way as a garage. All of these spaces have specific requirements derived from
When several operators or supervisors talk to each other inside a control room, oral communication is taking place. It is usually face-to-face communication, without auxiliary means. This type of quick and direct communication allows synchronized and safe actions to be carried out. The room operators can communicate to coordinate their
Acoustic comfort in control room design plays a crucial role in operators’ decision-making, as it improves the workspace, increasing the well-being and productivity of users. In a control room, where constant concentration and critical decision making are essential, proper management of sound reverberation not only improves communication between users, but
In the world of industrial design, Dieter Rams’ principles have been a timeless guide that continues to inspire designers and companies around the world. Known for his minimalist and functional approach, Rams proposed ten principles that define good design. These principles not only apply to consumer products, but can also
Consulting for interior design projects is a process in which aesthetics, innovation and functionality converge; where the conception and conceptualization of the project acquires fundamental relevance for its correct execution. And to an even greater extent, if we talk about projects for control rooms and critical environments, where it is
In the world of design, characterized by its dynamism, evolution is constant. Starting with the first sketches made in 2D to the current sophisticated three-dimensional visualization, the way in which designers communicate and present projects has undergone a profound metamorphosis, representing a substantial change in projects. This change has not
The world of design and, specifically industrial design, has used advanced technologies and software for years to help in the product design process; from conceptualization to manufacturing. Photorealistic renders that simulate materials, lights and other properties of our real environment in a virtual world. Physical simulations (finite element analysis software)
As we previously highlighted in our article Optimizing the design and the management of control centers with BIM, the BIM methodology covers all phases of a project in the construction process and the information it can provide us in the different dimensions. However, it is important to highlight that BIM
In a previous article that you can read here, we mentioned the possibilities that virtual reality tools such as Twinmotion combined with Revit offer in the development of design consultancies in a collaborative work environment. But what do these tools consist of? Autodesk Revit is the most widely used BIM
