Abstract:
Technological progress has had negative effects as well as positive effects if it affects the life industry and the entire ecosystem significantly through the great consumption of natural resources, and here the construction sector in general and the health sector, in particular, have a role in this. From the perspective of keeping pace with technological development, responding to environmental changes, and paying attention to hospital environments (especially since the emergence of modern epidemics), and because the construction sector is the largest consumer of energy in the world, which made international organizations move towards creating a sustainable environment in the construction of hospital buildings by reducing energy consumption. This research focused on studying the components and principles of sustainable design for hospital buildings and the environmental, economic, health, and social benefits of sustainable development in the healthcare industry. In addition to the research objective, which is to build a model as a guide to guide health care officials interested in applying sustainable design principles in hospital design, to achieve an ideal sustainable hospital environment. To achieve this goal, a comprehensive theoretical framework was built by adopting a descriptive and analytical approach and extracting the most important vocabulary and effective indicators for sustainable design in hospitals.

Abstract:
The construction costs of hospital buildings are relatively high due to the need to fulfill their complex functions and avoid mishaps. In this context, this study aims to minimize the total construction costs of hospitals while still satisfying the special architectural, practical, and structural requirements specified by design codes. To this end, 48 design alternatives with two floor systems (flat slabs with and without drop panels), three column spacings, and eight concrete grades were optimized using genetic algorithms provided by Palisade Evolver. The objective function included the materials and labor costs per square meter of the floor plan. The decision variables involved the concrete dimensions and steel bars of floors and columns. The hospital buildings were subjected to gravity, earthquake, and wind loads to thoroughly examine the realistic loading conditions. The design was performed in accordance with the Egyptian code for the design and construction of concrete structures and the Egyptian guidelines for hospitals and healthcare facilities. The results revealed that using low-strength concrete, and flat slabs without drop panels could achieve the best design. The slab thickness had a governing impact on the total cost of both floor systems.

Abstract:
Healthcare constructions are public buildings that necessitate technical, healing and medical conditions, require common action from a number of disciplines and accommodate differing scales within themselves. Recently, these constructions have been a field of study whose momentum have continued to speed up for varying disciplines in terms of healing factors. This condition can be evaluated in terms of the basic requirement of “well-being” for each individual, the fact that the definition of health has become more comprehensive and the changes on spatial requirements in accord with developing technology. The definition by World Health Organization (WHO) will be distinctive for designers. WHO stated that “Health is not only protection from diseases and microbes but also a state of well-being physically, mentally and socially.” Furthermore, excitement, hope and other positive emotions that can be conveyed to human soul through design can be viewed as the basis of health philosophy constructed on the condition of “well-being” Even though the concept of health involves a comprehensive definition, its perception by users indicates change over time and it can be considered that this perception is far from a holistic approach in parallel with the definition of health. Healthcare constructions include places that have negative connotations in the conscious of the society. The design of modern healing places as livable spots, environments to where feelings of belonging can be attached and environments of relaxing and healing therapeutics has become a delayed requirement. This will only start with understanding the role of place on healing. Hospitals can be regarded as type of constructions that are convenient to healing reading. Therefore, the efforts to create theoretical background have been put forward in this study in order to evaluate the relation between healthcare constructions and perception of places to provide reading over hospitals. The study will mention hospital buildings in the historical process and changes on the healing perception of people. It is impossible to design the study independent of users in this healing reading from past to present. With the evaluation carried out in this respect, today’s spatial construction perception will be evaluated over The Royal Children’s Hospital, Melbourne, Australia and providing recommendations on construction design is targeted. Keywords: Healing Places, Hospitals, Hospital design, Healing Design, Healthcare Constructions, Spatial Perception.

Abstract:
This study evaluates 171 hospital bed tower designs from the past decade. The Floor-building gross square feet (BGSF)/Bed, patient care area, ratio between them, and the bed count per unit were analyzed. The findings suggest that the average patient care area has decreased 5%–10% to a 305 departmental gross square feet (DGSF)/Bed average. The patient care area, support, circulation, and area grossing on floor were found to average 908 Floor-BGSF/Bed, and were impacted by the total beds/unit. It was determined that larger bed count per unit designs with 32–36 beds/unit average 21.9% less Floor-BGSF/Bed than designs with 24 beds/unit. The research evaluates design solutions impacted by a shifting environment of regulatory change and escalating costs. The hospital bed towers represent new facilities, horizontal/vertical expansions, and 25+ design teams. Design and/or construction took place during a 10-year period (2008–2018). The acute patient unit designs were reviewed and electronically quantified. The area measurement methodology aligns with the guidelines set forth in the “Area Calculation Method for Health Care” guidelines. Each project team was faced with a unique but similar set of circumstances. The balance between core values, guiding principles, budget, and quality of care was always present and included a diverse combination of owners, designers, construction delivery methods, profit models, and clinical approaches. In today’s world, common solutions are grounded in providing the best value. Project teams face a number of challenges during design. The lack of information should never be one.

Abstract:
Abstract Hospitals are the type of buildings which need development and expansion continuously so it can achieve all the demands of the progress in the medical field, medical devices, and the updates in the infrastructure of the hospitals. Due to the spread of many bacteria that are related to the construction and development process, many countries had to take into considerations many strict precautions to reduce the danger of the infection spread. These precautions are important either inside the building of the hospital or outside, so the maximum reduction of infection spread should be reached as there are many patients suffer from lack of immunity. This research aims to reach a rational design criterion for hospital designers which gains the required demands to combat the infection spread during construction and development process meanwhile continuing to present the medical services. It is strongly recommended to introduce flexible structural module that can be reused in different activities. Also, isolation of patient’s spaces during construction becomes a mandatory manner. Moreover, it is advised to design an adaptable ventilation system which facilitates different sectors separation, either patient, medical stuff, or workers paths.

Abstract:
Since the 1960s, researchers have been exploring how the design of the built environment impacts the health and well-being of occupants and users. By the 1980s, further research began to focus on healthcare facilities in particular and how design could influence patient healing and medical staff performance (Alfonsi, 2014). Evidence-Based Design (EBD) is "the process of basing decisions about the built environment on credible research to achieve the best possible outcomes" (CHD, 2016). The desired outcomes of Evidence-Based Design recommendations include improvements in the following: patient healing, patient experience and comfort, medical staff performance, and medical staff job satisfaction (CHD, 2017). Extensive research has been done on the subject of EBD; however, the question remains whether or not the latest research findings are being utilized by the design and construction industries in practice. The purpose of this research is to determine whether or not the latest scientific knowledge and research findings are being implemented into hospital renovation projects by the healthcare design and construction industries. A list of recommendations from existing EBD literature was compiled. Construction documents from 30 recent healthcare facility renovation projects across the United States were then obtained and analyzed. The findings indicate that EBD recommendations are being adopted in practice at consistently high levels. These findings also reveal that there are still areas of potential improvement which could inform those who influence or determine building and design codes, standards, and guidelines. The results are instructive to owners, designers, and contractors by providing a glimpse into how well the industry is recognizing and implementing known best practices. The findings likewise open up new opportunities for further research which could lead to additional improvement in the healthcare facilities of the future.

Abstract:
According to a recent study, about 30 percent of U.S. real estate projects are canceled midstream, while more than half run up to 190 percent over budget and 220 percent over the initial time estimate. The reasons for this are manifold but poor decisions during the initiation and early planning of the project can be pointed to as main causes. Most poor decisions stem from lack of information, bad judgment, and lack of communication and transparency between what the client expects and what the project team can deliver. Proper project planning procedures and methods will lead to proper contingency planning, management of partner relationships and contracts, management of dynamic change and associated risks that can, and most probably will, occur in the course of the project. The role of the owner cannot be overstated in all of these targets. Historically, the owners of healthcare facilities have a once in a lifetime involvement in the planning, design and construction (or major renovation) of their facility. The interaction with planners, public bodies, architects, engineers, and other entities is a daunting prospect for which an owner will seek help from specialized firms that represent the owner. This guide may serve as a healthcare project planning guide for owners, and in particular CEOs, to navigate the process. It will prepare the owner to recognize the major tasks and decision steps throughout project planning, while keeping the focus on the desired outcome. Any owner should recognize that the slogan: if you dont know what you want, you will not get what you need is as true today as it ever was. This guide will include research, best practices from industry experts, and a case study on the New Orleans public healthcare planning process post-Hurricane Katrina.

Abstract:
Construction flexibility inside a hospital building serves as an enabler for a health service to clinically progress. This research sought the opportunity of extending flexible design approaches by consolidating established knowledge into a refreshed flexibility pattern mapping. The resulting understanding provided a base for developing design propositions as examples of apt, flexible solutions. This research contributed to guiding flexibility towards enhanced practices and it partially addressed the softening of the logarithmic growth of financial burden for health services. Also, the research provided a model for a change-ready building fabric, allowing responsive opportunity towards the accelerating pace of clinical development.

Resumo: O hospital converteu-se em instituição social através dos séculos, transformouse em um edifício complexo, abrigando especialidades e equipamentos médicos múltiplos que refletiram na sua concepção e projeto. Neste trabalho descrevem-se as transformações arquitetônicas e construtivas do edifício público de saúde na cidade de São Paulo, principalmente, a partir da segunda metade do século XIX, com o desenvolvimento da cultura cafeeira, o advento da República e a estruturação do Serviço de Saúde Pública. Especificamente, identificam-se as intervenções físicofuncionais e técnico-construtivas ocorridas no período de 1998 a 2002, em uma série de hospitais públicos, construídos a partir de uma mesma tipologia, na Região Metropolitana da Grande São Paulo. Os resultados mostram que esses hospitais, concebidos em 1986, continuam atuais diante das alterações e reestruturações implementadas no seu espaço físico, visando abrigar novas unidades funcionais e equipamentos, possibilitando a execução de novos procedimentos médico-hospitalares

Abstract:
Hospitals are constantly evolving to keep pace with the latest medical technologies. Whether it is a refurbishment of an existing facility or the addition of a new unit, the design process usually focuses on the technological requirements rather than the human elements of such an undertaking. The Riley Hospital for Children in Indianapolis presents an architectural opportunity to incorporate psychology of the environment into the design and construction of a new Cancer Unit. By balancing the technological requirements with the physical and psychological needs of the pediatric bone marrow transplant and hematology/oncology patients, one can create a healing environment more conducive to a rapid recovery.

Abstract:
This research addressed a major and widespread problem in the NHS: information for operational planning. The approach has been to analyse the needs of management in this field in a particular health district and to develop a system in response to these needs of use in the particular District and generally in the NHS. The emphasis had been on the identification and quantification of relationships between elements of the District important to corporate planning, so that the feasibility and effects of planning choices can be assessed. Particular attention has been paid to the attitudes, values and concerns of senior managers and doctors in the NHS throughout the project. Research began in October 1979 on the development of a database and model of the former North East District of KCWAHA. This health district contained a large undergraduate teaching hospital (The Middlesex), two large psychiatric hospitals, and several smaller specialist hospitals. The purpose of the decision-support system is to enable management to explore rapidly the implications of operational planning optlons over several years. It does not recommend which option should be followed. Plans are tested in terms of the bed capacity of general wards and specialist units. The revenue costs of an option are estimated using a detailed analysis of which types of change cause which types of cost to vary within the District. The model then assesses the non-financial consequences for the operating theatres and service departments, and the effects on nurse training. The research has shown that it is feasible to build and maintain such a model and database with very limited clerical support. The output from the system has been found useful by management. This development has generated considerable support for further research. The assumptions of the model and the procedures for updating the database are fully documented. Procedures for implementing the system in another health district are also available. The model runs on the computer at Imperial College, University of London. The research programme continues with the extension of the model to cover the whole of the new Bloomsbury District (including University College Hospital), where the use of the system has had a substantial impact on decisionmaking at the most senior level.

Abstract:
A crucial action of COVID-19 combat is the quick design and building of makeshift hospitals (MHs). Although adopting building information modeling (BIM) promotes the digitalization and communication of design collaboration, data security vulnerabilities (e.g., lacking traceability and transparency) are detected and have inevitably impeded the efficiency and productivity of the MH project. Such problems often lead to rework and unnecessary disputes, wasting valuable time on projects requiring ultra-fast construction speed. The emerging blockchain technology offers an immutable and traceable collaboration environment. However, limited studies have integrated blockchain in the BIM design process, especially design in emergency projects like MH. Therefore, this paper proposes a blockchain-enabled collaboration (BEC) framework for fast and secure BIM design. The framework is illustrated in an actual MH project in Hong Kong, and results show that: (1) it supports secure and automated BIM data exchange and (2) it saves 23 % of the time in a design coordination case

Abstract:
<p>In order to control the spread of the COVID-19 epidemic across the country, China has used all available resources to build infectious disease hospitals in various ways. These hospitals include three modes and adapt to different disease levels: temporary emergency hospitals; makeshift hospitals by transforming public buildings; and existing general wards transformed into infectious wards. Through the practice of several projects, on the basis of the original standard system, China urgently issued a series of relevant standards and guidelines to guide the construction of temporary hospitals. As one of the earliest cases of temporary emergency infectious disease hospital, the Thunder God Mountain Hospital adopted a prefabricated modular design concept in plan design, plane design and component design, and also combined the application of Building Information Modeling (BIM) and Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) technology. Based on industrialized module processing and manufacturing, combined with an efficient on-site construction management system, the problem was solved of completing the construction in a very short time, which played a key role in controlling the epidemic situation.</p>

Abstract:
The waiting time is a major challenge for government hospitals around the world, particularly in developing countries, due to inefficient design and limited facilities. This waiting time causes long queues, especially in service providing facilities. Hence, queuing is considered a key performance indicator when evaluating the performance of healthcare facilities. The outpatient department (OPD) is the main division of a hospital that handles a large number of patients daily. This research aimed to provide solutions for minimising waiting time in OPD premises through efficient planning and designing strategies. This study applied the queuing theory for two case studies to analyse the waiting time of the patients at the OPD. Hospital records and field observations were used to gather data. Further solutions for minimising the waiting time were identified using semi-structured interviews with hospital management and a questionnaire survey with patients at OPD. Field observations revealed that there were long waiting queues and long waiting times at the registration counter and the consultant rooms. Due to increased demand for OPD services, unnecessary arrivals, a lack of resources, and patients’ ignorance of OPD procedures were identified as causes of overcrowding. Further, to minimise waiting time at the OPD, it should leverage the efficient designs with properly placed inquiry counters, walkways, and directions; provide adequate facilities such as a spacious waiting area, and restructuring should be implemented. The findings of the research mark valuable insights into government hospitals, and the proposed solutions will be useful for hospital management.

Abstract:
Despite the benefits of BIM, some challenges to implementing it have appeared due to traditional project management, especially in the construction of complex projects. This article presents the challenges to applying ISO 19650:2018 Parts 1 and 2 in public hospital projects in Peru. These challenges were identified through 28 interviews with owners, designers, contractors, suppliers, operators, and final users (doctors and nurses) and complemented by a literature review. The identified challenges were divided into the budget, legal framework, organizational culture, and personnel. The results suggest that the adversities identified in the four groups should be overcome to implement BIM according to the ISO 19650 guidelines. Therefore, recommendations are presented to facilitate the ISO 19650 implementation in public hospital projects.
