Research On The Renovation And Extension Of Medical Architecture

In twenty-one century, medical service systems in many countries are faced with huge press of reformation. Demands of medical treatment change constantly, basic medicine research develops continually, medical technology changes quickly, and medical equipments for diagnoses and therapy always upgrade. All these changes advance the development of medical treatment, and also request medical architecture that is the carrier of medical service to renew through creating new buildings or renovating and extending existing buildings.Medical architecture is one type of the most complex and especial architectures, which differentiates medical architecture from others, and comes into being the special field for design. This paper is about the renovation and extension of medical architecture. Based on mastery of scientific and systemic theory and methods for medical architecture design, I want to find the problems and contradictions in the renovation and extension of medical architecture, approaches to assort with or solve the problem, and architects'standpoint and countermeasure.The paper researches on the design methods and techniques of medical architecture in three phases——architecture programming, planning, and architecture design, deeply analyses diversified contradictions between different subjects and specialties in three phases and approaches to solve them, and cooperation and technique sustenance between subjects and specialties in the renovation and extension of medical architecture. The paper discusses systemically about the energy-efficient design in the renovation and extension of medical architecture, emphasizes on the environmental design in medical architecture and influence to surroundings. In a word, the renovation and extension of medical architecture is not only to perfect medical function and improve medical environment, but also to economize the social resources and responsible for the environment.
