Service corridors

Service corridors are intended for the transportation of HPMs within an H-6 occupancy and are governed by UBC 220,307.11.4 and UFC 5107. Service corridors shall be classified as Group H, Division 6 occupancies. Service corridors shall be separated from exit corridors as required by UBC Section 307.11.2.1. The maximum distance of travel from any point in a service corridor to an exterior exit door, horizontal exit, exit passageway, enclosed stairway or door into a fabrication area shall not exceed 75 feet. 

There are many technical requirements related to HPM service corridors  

Once inside the fab, HPMs may be distributed by the user at will, subject to the limitations regarding type of containers and carts outlined in 

Hazardous material storage rooms are classified as H-1, H-2, H-3 or H-7 when the quantities of hazardous materials contained within exceed the exempt amounts listed in UBC Tables 3-D or 3-E or UFC Tables 8001.13A or 8001.13-B. While the construction and operation requirements for these storage and dispensing rooms are very complex as provided in UBC Chapter 3 and UFC Articles 51,79 and 80, some general requirements are presented here.

The display showed urban-camouflaged troops spilling out of a duct and spreading out into a dimly lit service corridor, scanning about, small arms at the ready. One of the masked officers issued rapid hand signals, the other hurried off screen, probably for a reconnaissance of the end of the corridor. That s - that s one of the basement levels. Our basement. ... 

Ventilation dampers, filters and other services should be designed and positioned so that they are accessible from outside the manufacturing areas (service voids or service corridors) for maintenance purposes. 

Penthouse and rooftop equipment should be serviceable via stairs or elevators and via roof walkways (to protect the roofing). Ship s ladders are inadequate when tools, parts, chemicals, and so on are to be carried. Rooftop air handlers, especially those used in cold climates, should have enclosed service corridors (where project budgets allow). If heavy rooftop replacement parts, filters, or equipment are expected to be skidded or rolled across a roof, the architect must be advised of the loading to permit proper roof system design. 

The disadvantages of this arrangement are that all kiosks are not visible and the centralized communal facilities result in a "racetrack" service corridor. 

The Interstate Highway System is just about finished—after 30 years—and cannot be expanded. There are limits to how many cars can use a particular corridor. By 2020 it will take 44 lanes to carry the traffic on 1-95 from Miami to Fort Lauderdale. Pretty soon there won t be anything left of Florida Just the other day, the new head of the Federal Highway Administration gave me their forecasts for the year 2000. In every urban area over 1 million population, traffic conditions will have declined to service level E or F—stop and go, or just plain stopped. 

Shane Brandes, the Dechal s fusion engineer, slid out of the corridor which led to the airlock he was wearing the copper one-piece overall of the local spaceport services company. It took him a couple of seconds to recognize the frenetic woman four metres in front of him who was grappling with a gun caught up in her jacket. He gagged in astonishment. 

The HelpMate, introduced in 1993, is a mobile robot for courier services in hospitals. It transports meals, pharmaceuticals, documents, and so on, along normal corridors on demand (see Figure 24). Clear and simple user interfaces, robust robot navigation, and the abihty to open doors or operate... 

If a corridor serves as an exit access in the building occupancies which are being considered here, the corridor walls must be of at least 1-hour fire resistance rating. Care must be taken to construct corridor walls that are continuous to the ceding separation to ensure this rating. Cases have been observed in which the wall was not taken above a suspended ceiling or continued into open service alcoves. Corridor floors should have shp-resistant surfaces. 

If water fountains are provided, they are to be foot operated and are to be located in the facility corridors outside the laboratory. The water service to the fountains is not to be connected to the back-flow protected system supplying water to the laboratory areas. Access doors to the laboratory are to be self-closing and lockable.

To analyze the corridor performance, processing time variance was one of die most importance measurements. It represented reliability of services. In this case, processing time variability had been divided into traveling time variance and operation time variance. Route no. 5 gave us both the minimum traveling time and operation time variances by 9.41 and 29.03 h, respectively. Contrast to Route no. 4 performed the greatest value of both traveling time and operation time by 35.36 and 109.37 h, respectively. The results could be seen in Table 1. 

Accommodation area Space used for cabins, offices, lavatories, corridors, hospitals, cinemas, public spaces, etc. Service spaces and control stations may be a part it. 

An additional potential problem is the tectonic instability of the rocks along the corridor. A 1,000 km (621 mi) long scarp developed after a recent earthquake in the Kunlun Shan (14 November 2001 measuring 8.1 on the Richter scale) and similar but more extensive fault scarps can be seen cutting across alluvial fans in the southern part of the corridor. It is probable that the rail bed could be damaged from time to time by a major earthquake, with resultant disruption in service.
