    From the moment we enter a large office building until we leave it, we receive a lot of attentions served by the management of services to the user. However, it is usually quite inappreciable the work that is being developed to keep things running smoothly. The services provided in a building are carried out by people. However, we often tend to forget these people when we talk about the tasks that make that a building operates properly 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. But, for example, what would happen if one day the service provided by the reception in a large building did not function as it should? What would it be like if one day the person performing the service of maintenance of the building's cleaning were not at his post? How would the working day develop if there were not a correct air handling system? People are the foundation of the proper functioning of a building. The work of the Facilities Manager and the Facility Management is the management of their functions: the responsible management of the team

    From the very first steps to execute a building, it is essential to analyze its life cycle. Similarly, we should consider the life cycle when projecting an urban intervention. Professionals of the Facility Management take part in construction projects, developing and managing DBFMO projects (Design, Build, Finance, Maintenance & Operate). Whatever the nature of the promoter is – private or public – promoters are leaders in projects of responsible management of spaces, whether these are work spaces, leisure spaces or residential spaces. They know and identify with the company and its performance, its values and its needs. These professionals give sustainable solutions in the life cycle of buildings (offices and housing), new ways to work and initiatives of innovations linked to current social changes: technology, social networks, and new habits. Concepts where innovation is essential should consider responsible values. Social, economic and sustainable aspects have to associate with the management performed by a Facilities Manager when considering the three groups of stakeholders with which it is linked: economic (shareholders), contractual (users), non-contractual (neighborhoods, organizations, etc.). Marcus Vitruvius Pollio, at the beginning of his book "The Ten Books on Architecture" describes and argues how the distribution in buildings must always adapt to their inhabitants. Let us build cities and buildings with responsible criteria, bearing in mind all its users and the needs of each one of them. Not to mention the need to adapt to future requirements with minimum cost and maximum profitability. These needs, under responsible management, are competencies developed by a Facilities Manager in his day to day. He cares and takes over the entire life cycle of buildings and their surroundings. This work is part of the PhD project whose main aim is to study the added value to the architectural profession when social responsibility criteria are applied in his/her role as Facility Manager

    La financiacion publico-privada (PPP-PPI) como alternativa a la rehabilitacion del patrimonio del estado

    Full text link
    En la actualidad, la administración española tiene pocos recursos económicos disponibles para la rehabilitación del patrimonio, para lo cual necesitarían una financiación externa, realizada por fondos privados. La Dirección Integrada de Proyecto (“Project Management“) aplicada al proceso constructivo es una Técnica Metodológica que ayuda a organizar, controlar y gestionar los recursos de los promotores dentro del proceso edificatorio. Cuando los recursos están limitados (que normalmente es la mayoría de las situaciones) gestionarlos de una manera eficiente se convierte en algo muy importante. La financiación público-privada es una forma de no consolidar la deuda dentro del balance de la Administración Pública, según los criterios del SEC-95 EUROSTAT que, transfiriendo dos riesgos de los tres citados a continuación al sector privado puede ser que no se consolide la deuda dentro del balance de la Administración. Los riesgos fundamentales son: - Riesgo de construcción - Riesgo de disponibilidad - Riesgo de demand

    Health and safety in the construction : subject pending to be included in the curriculum of architecture in Spain

    The art of construction is a risky activity that directly affects the life and physical integrity of persons. Since the approval of Law 31/1995, of November 8, Prevention of Occupational Risks was the first legislation that established the current basis in all sectors and then transposed into Spanish law Directive 92/57/CEE called Royal Decree 1627/1997 of October 24, on minimum safety and health dispositions in construction works, measures have been proposed to develop a mixed body of scientific literature composed of researchers and professionals in the field of occupational safety and health, but even today there is still no clear and firm proposal, showing a lack of awareness in the occupational risk prevention and, therefore, a consolidation of the culture of prevention in society. Therefore, the technicians, who make up the building process, can incur in very high responsibilities, such as: Author of the project, Coordinator of Safety and Health during the preparation of the project and during the execution of works, Site Management: Site Manager. This involves the immediate creation of a general training in prevention for all architects starting when still studying, as well as specific training, appropriate and complementary to all the architects that will be devoted to the specialty of occupational safety and health in construction works. That is, first, we must make the responsible bodies aware of the urgent need to integrate risk prevention in the curricula of architecture and later in the continuing education of the profession. It is necessary that our teaching must conform to the laws on safety and health, due to the fact that the law recognizes our academic degrees and professional qualifications to perform functions in that are

    Valor único en los bienes inmuebles y temporalidad de los tipos impositivos por aplicación de una base de datos catastral

    El objeto de la tesis que aquí se presenta y que tiene por título: "Valor único en los bienes inmuebles y temporalidad de los tipos impositivos, por aplicación de una base de datos catastral", es en primer lugar analizar la dicotomía entre unidad en las valoraciones y estanqueidad tributaria, inclinándonos por aquélla que ofrezca una mayor lógica y seguridad al contribuyente. Demostraremos, que es el principio de unicidad de valoración, haciendo un estudio dentro del marco jurisprudencial y normativo, el que cumple con los requisitos enunciados anteriormente. En segundo lugar es también objeto de la tesis, la determinación del valor de los bienes inmuebles de naturaleza urbana, a efectos fiscales, esto es, la base imponible de las distintas figuras impositivas que forman nuestro marco tributario. Analizando la doctrina legal que las han conformado a lo largo de su historia post-constitucional hasta el momento actual. (Anexo de la tesis). Dicho valor se obtendrá en función de los datos que existen en el catastro de urbana y contendrá toda la información fisica, económica y jurídica de dichos inmuebles. Por lo cual hacemos una propuesta de base de datos en la que se encuentre toda la información requerida. Partiendo del Fichero Informático Nacional (F.I.N.), crearemos nuestro Sistema Catastral Local, basándonos en lo que llamaremos Fichero Informático Local (F.I.L.), dentro del marco legal determinado por el Real Decreto 1020/1.993, de 25 de Junio, por el que se aprueban las Normas Técnicas de Valoración y el Cuadro Marco de Valores del Suelo y de las Construcciones para determinar el Valor Catastral de los Bienes Irmiuebles de Naturaleza Urbana. Además se propone que dicha base de datos esté onstantemente mantenida, es decir estableces su magnitud de forma que el valor catastral esté acorde con sus características físicas, económicas y de mercado, y actualizada, pues al ser de ámbito local, recogerá todas las alteraciones patrimoniales de los contribuyentes de forma automática. Se propone que la fijación de los tipos impositivos sea de carácter no confiscatorio que aplicados al valor catastral, supongan un fiel reflejo del aspecto coyuntural socio-económico. Lógicamente el paso del criterio actual al desarrollado en nuestra tesis, no tiene que significar ni incremento, ni pérdida de recaudación, es decir, tiene que mantener la presión fiscal, haciendo funcionar dichos tipos impositivos y no los valores. Tipos impositivos que se actualizarán anualmente en las Leyes de Presupuestos Generales del Estado. Por tanto corresponderá a la Administración Central, la determinación de valores, los tipos impositivos coyunturales dentro de la horquilla que parlamentariamente, mediante ley, se determine para que en ningún caso los tipos impositivos, como ya hemos dicho, puedan ser confíscatorio ni una reforma de carácter técnico pueda significar, un incremento encubierto de la presión tributaria, la normativa y su coordinación, dictando las instrucciones y directrices de carácter técnico para la formación, mantenimiento y rectificación de la base de datos. Las Comunidades Autónomas, se nutrirán de la información permanentemente revitalizada de los Ayuntamientos, adaptando la normativa estatal, siendo los Ayuntamientos por tanto los encargados de su mantenimiento y actualización, interconexionados con los Registros de la Propiedad. Haremos un análisis comparativo de las ventajas de nuestro Fichero Informático Local (F.I.L.), respecto al Fichero Informático Nacional (F.I.N.), en cuanto a la reducción de volumen de información, interconexión con otros sistemas, accesos muy superiores, reducción de gastos y rapidez de información, ventajas todas que al final redundarán en una seguridad y garantía para el contribuyente. Resumiendo la presente tesis, contendrá las siguientes propuestas a desarrollar: - Valor único y tipos impositivos variables. - Modelo de gestión informatizada de sistema catastral local. - Función de las distintas Administraciones en el proceso general
