Nelson, Richard D. Munhall, Dale L. ab: Part of a special section on the architecture, construction, and design of correctional institutions. Determined to avoid the potential divergence of form and function in the design of correctional institutions, Nebraska's Department of Correctional Services (DCS) hired a design firm that was able to create a “virtual” corrections environment by combining a number of computer programs to produce animated, three-dimensional models of interior and exterior spaces. These adaptable electronic models enabled the DCS staff to envisage how they would operate within the completed facilities. Through the use of computerized design, the DCS has experienced considerable savings of time and construction funds and has improved its ability to define operating procedures early in the design process and to maximize staff efficiency once the construction of a facility is completed. The ways in which the computer technology was adapted for each of three correctional construction projects in Nebraska are outlined. pubtype: Periodical doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
