KTH Campus
Popularly called Sing-Sing because of the internal design…
Generally
The ventilation in the building is adapted to the number of people and the equipment planned in the rooms.
After regular office hours, the ventilation in the building is turned off to save energy.
Possibility of extended ventilation operation via push button
Office
Ventilation in offices takes place with a constant air flow.
The room temperature in the rooms can be changed via the switch on the control center which is located by the door.
Note that it takes a few hours before you experience a difference. Make only small adjustments to the slider.
Rooms with varying occupancy (meeting rooms/ café/ multi-hall/ project spaces)
In most rooms with varying occupancy, the ventilation in the room is automatically supplied via temperature measurement in the room. When the cooling via the ventilation is not enough, this is supplemented by cooling baffles.
Lighting
In order to save energy, the building's lighting system is predominantly performed presence-controlled. This causes the lighting to switch on and off automatically.
Fluorescent lamps are generally made with high-frequency devices (HF devices) that provide flicker-free lighting. Some fixtures in escape routes are connected to uninterruptible power such as led/emergency lighting and
turns on automatically in the event of a power failure.
Exterior lighting
Lighting in entrances, windbreaks and exterior lighting is switched on and off automatically via a centrally installed light relay in combination with a time function.
Fire protection
SCARED - WARN - ALARM - EXTINGUISH
Evacuation
If the fire alarm goes off, evacuate the house according to evacuation signs. Fire doors close automatically to prevent smoke from spreading. The existing lifts must not be used in the event of a fire alarm.
Emergency alarm from elevators and RWC
In elevators, there is an alarm button that goes to the alarm center, even outside normal working hours. The elevators are equipped with emergency telephones that have voice communication capabilities 24 hours a day. Pressing the alarm button sounds a signal outside the elevator in the building.
There are environmental stations on different floors for plastic, paper, deposits and more. Akademiska Hus is responsible for the trash cans outside, questions about other waste management are referred to campus services.
