informal settlement upgrading CASE STUDY

SITE The project is located in the BT Section of Khayelitsha, Cape Town. Currently the site is occuppied by informal settlers that have built temporary houses using the materials and building methods that are available to them. The area is very dense and the infrastructure is lacking. In order to understand the needs of the residents and their current conditions, a precise analysis of the site was necessary. The density of population of the site was determined and correlated to each dwelling. Thus, it was possible to perceive the number of people per dwelling and the distribution of shacks based on their surface.

PROBLEMATIC The challenge of the project is to recluster the existing shacks and create a new urban plan where new spaces are opened for community use and the housing demand is still satisfied. The project should solve the lack of infrastructure planning and aim to provide a more permanent and organized community.

OBJECTIVES WALL WITH ME seeks to create an urban system that involves the whole community in its construction. The community members take desicions about the new sizes and typologies and are arranged around common spaces that will benefit everyone. The upgrading plan involves an internal local production of materials and labor alongside government cooperation. The upgrading will take place during time, responding to the needs and possibilities of each family.

COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT The project aims to create a system where both community members and the government work together in order to achieve the up-grading process. While the government provides the basic wall structure and infrastructure system, the community members are free to build their shack in the size and system they prefer inside their lot. The systems tries to create cooperation relationships between the community members while building their new houses and create a more dynamic enviornment by adding functions and common areas.

WALL CONCEPT The wall is the first thing to be built in the reclustering process, as it will provide a base for infrastructure and structure. It is provided by the government but built locally. Objectives: Create a centralized space for infrastructure between as much shacks as possible. Create an effective fire protection element between shacks. Reduce the need for completely destroying the previous shacks while the project is built.

WALL PROCESS Functioning: 1. The wall location is established between 3 previous shacks. 2. The old shacks are removed one by one so the wall and new shacks get built. 3. New shacks are built around the wall with modules that create different sizes and typologies depending on the previous ownersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; possibilities and needs. 4. Future possibility for vertical expansion of the modules.

URBAN PROCESS 1. Starting by the perimeter the walls start to be placed between the previous shacks. 2. The old constructions are replaced by the new. 3. Advancing towards the center the new shacks create the new clusters and public courtyards. The main infrastructure is provided by the government to the public furniture in each future courtyard.

DEFINING THE TYPOLOGIES The criteria for the typologies was to provide the most fair re-clustering solution possible, with the possibility of the owners choosing from a series of sizes and configurations depending on their previous property or their current economic conditions.

TYPOLOGIES The different typologies are defined by two basic modules that structure the construction. The small module contains circulation, toilet area and stairs when needed. The large module contains living spaces like bedrooms, living rooms, kitchen and studios. According to the catalogue, three different typologies of shacks are proposed, to satisfy the demands of the inhabitants of BT Section. These typologies are made up from the repetition of the modules in different arrangements.

TYPOLOGIES The typologies proposed for the WALL WITH ME project are able to expand both horizontally and vertically. This flexibility is given so that the inhabitants of the new shacks can choose, according to their preference or economic possibilities, how much and when to expand their houses. The structure is a frame that can then be filled with any material in the facade and can be slowly upgraded into a permanent residence.

PROPOSED URBAN PLAN The urban plan was created by the process of inserting infrastructural walls throughout different parts of the site and then replacing the shacks around them for new ones. The layout seeked to create medium size courtyards, that give service to four to five, 3-house clusters. While the â&#x20AC;&#x153;infrastructure wallâ&#x20AC;? centralizes theMservices such as water and electricity for 3 be houses, kw the public courtyards create a space that en i S infrastructure such as trash bins, orgahas shared tre et nic waste disposal, grill and street lights. All these services are placed in a permanent furniture in each courtyard, which ensure the use of the space and provides extra services and programs for the community.

a A ven

The settlement is connected with two main streets that cross the project and with three entrances: to the church community center, to the school and future urban garden and to the neighbouring community in the south. Some of the spaces located next to the main avenues contain a different program from housing. These spaces can be parking lots, stores or workshops.

CLUSTER PLAN AND SECTION Every infrastructure walll has the hability to attatch to three new shacks that can expand to two floors. The core functions as a place where the water tank for the three houses is located and contains the tubes and machines that make the infrastructure work. The way the houses are arranged around the wall creates different gardens and points of access to each house. The extension of the core is an effective firewall between the shacks.

CONSTRUCTION AND MATERIALS The idea of WALL WITH ME project is the cooperation between the community members in the upgrading process. With this objective in mind, the materials and the structure are simple but very labor intensive. The construction of the new shacks involves the learning of new skills like cultivating bamboo and producing earth bricks. This will generate new jobs for people in the community and will provide them with the knowledge they need in order to build and upgrade their shacks. WALL WITH ME seeks to empower the inhabitants of the BT Section by creating a simple way to achieve a permanent settlement with cheap and accessible materials.

INFRASTRUCTURE CORE The infrastructure core works with two systems: sun energy and water collection. The wall concentrates this two functions and distributes the infrastructure to the three houses attached. The idea is to reuse as much of the natural elements for the functioning of the house and to reuse the waste in a productive way.

Water 1. The rain water is collected and stored in the water tank. 2. The sinks in every toilet feed from the watertank 3. Water from sinks is used to flush the toilets. 4. The waste from the toilet goes into the biogas tank 5. The biogas generates energy to use in public lighting. Energy 1. The photovoltaic cells capture the sunâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s energy 2. The received energy is traded for government electricity 3. Electricity is taken back into each house through the core wall.
