Rules and Safety

Rules for all MID Studios

1. A clean space is a happy and safe space  - if you take something out, put it away, if you drop something, pick it up, plug it in, plug it out, you get the idea. Items left out are placed on the "hack me" shelf for public usage. Use storage boxes marked with your course number and kth userid. One week after course ends the contents of the box become property of Middla.
   Budget 15 minutes before leaving to tidy up as best you can. Use the full 15 minutes, tidy up one more mess than you made, none of us are perfect.
2. Respect the space and each other - The studios are a common space and you are part of someone elses experience; we choose what culture we build so say "hi" and "bye" to eachother! Obviously the KTH ethical code of conduct applies and the space is an *ism-free space.
   Treat the equipment and materials with care; we expect you to break stuff, learning by burning, but do try to avoid damage by googling best practices and methods first. Use the right tools and materials for the right job, see the best practices link on the left. Let the studio manager know if something is broken, or has run out so we can take care of it as soon as possible. Use the studio log in the left menu when logged in.  If you are the last to leave the lab please check the windows and that, for example, no glue-guns are left plugged in, turn off the main lights and close the door.

Safety at MID Studios

Emergency exits are the entrance door and a door at the far right end of the corridor as you leave each studio, each marked with green exit signs. 

Fire extinguishers are located within the Middla studio and in the corridor, by the entrance door and at the left end of the corridor as you leave each studio. Their location is marked with a red square sign. Those marked "koldioxid" (CO2) are best suited to electrical/electronic/liquid fires and those marked "skum" (foam) are better suited to fires on wood, clothing, furniture, etc. Very short film on how to use fire extinguisher here.

First aid station including eye-wash is located at the left end of the corridor as you leave each studio. 

The emergency services can be reached by phone at 112 if needed, and the KTH security line is 08-790 7700 for anything that doesn't require blue-light services. Please save this number in your phone, it is available 24/7 and can give further advice.

Prepare for emergencies with the KTH Crisis Information portal.
