during semester graduation project 1 have analyzed and identified the problems facing Al-rahma medical clinic,then during semester graduation project 2 have been tried to improve all the problems and find solutions for them. all of architecture, structural , mechanical , electrical and HVAC plans has been designed and performed.
Then to analyze architecture design, structure design, lighting design , HVAC system design
there are some programs and codes that has been used in this study, These programs are Rivet for 3-D models and Auto-CAD for 2-D plans to design architectural, ETABS and SAP 2000 to design Structural element, Design Builder program to design solar and HVAC system with ASHRE standard for heating, ventilation and air conditioning have been used used, INSUL program has been use for Acoustic ,In addition to DIAlux program has been used for lighting design depending on LEED specification .
And the codes that will be used like Uniform building Code (UBC-97), International Building Code (IBC), Jordanian Building Code 2005, Arab Uniform Code 2006 and ACI 318(2011).
