Technique areas are cost-relevant factors which are often minimised by optimising utilisation areas at the expense of the subsequent costs of operation and maintenance. The persons responsible are often not the ultimate operators or users of the systems, and the balancing influence of the operating costs is therefore lacking. Early decisions about the amount of space needed for the individual technique rooms and service shafts are essential, particularly with a view to economical operation and maintenance The series of standards VDI 2050 serves as a basis for the planning and integral consideration of building and their Building Services (BS). Here, the focus is on determining the space requirement for technique centres of a building. This standard will serve as a suitable planning instrument for a variety of planners and users. It gives guidance on calculating the space requirement for technique centres and the structural arrangement of technique centres in a building.
