Here at Spaces4Learning, we recently launched a new resource on our website—the Glossary of School Facility Planning and Maintenance. It offers clear and concise definitions of key terms and concepts used in the planning, design, construction, and maintenance of K–12 and higher-education facilities. Topics range from architectural design and construction techniques to maintenance practices, technology, safety and security protocols, and more.

Understanding the specific nuances of terms and concepts as used within the industry is crucial to the successful evolution of educational landscapes. Whether you’re overseeing a new construction project, managing an existing facility, or want to learn more about the intricacies of educational infrastructure, the glossary provides you with the insights and knowledge you need.

Visit the glossary here—and don’t be afraid to request new definitions!
