Why especially This Site ? ALEXANDRIA (ΑΛΕΞΆΝΔΡΕΙΑ) » Alexandria is a Greek city was founded by Alexander the Great king of Macedon, » it is the second largest city in Egypt and a major economic center and is a popular tourist destination. » As it is an attraction destination for people from inside and out side Egypt so this site with sea view is the perfect choice to enhance the values we need to add through this community center.

Brief Âť There is a project for developing Alexandria region since 2002 including different cities (Alexandria, Marsa Matrouh, Behira, Siwa , Edko ..) This project aim to develop these cities in different fields as (Agriculture, Industry, Tourism..). The developing processes of tourism is still happening till now. So we decided to participate in developing tourism with different way specially the entertainment cultural tourism.

Our Project Objective Creating a community center that boosts economy & tourism by following some goals of the government: Âť Encouraging the historical (Cultural) & entertainment tourism.

What we provide to our guests via this project ? Âť Exhibition halls , kids halls and storyteller with high new technologies (Holograms, VR & AR) to cope up with modernism, add brand-new interesting and first of all in Alexandria and to be more attractive for people by different exhibition types to amuse all ages from children to up above. Âť Public area and green roof to gather people and let them have an interesting interaction with past and nowadays technology and to enjoy the sea view.

What is the kind of function describe this project ? A community StoryTeller is a building serving as an exhibition and gathering space for specific identity groups or geographic areas. In contrast to traditional places, community Storyteller are commonly multidisciplinary, and may simultaneously exhibit the history, social history, art, or folklore of their communities. They emphasize collaboration with â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and relevance to â&#x20AC;&#x201C; visitors and other stakeholders, and as a result, often appear more overtly political than other Storytellers.

What are AR and VR? » AR

just adds some digital elements to real objects or a real view, by using a smartphone, laptop, tablet, headset.

» VR just shuts out the physical world and immerses a person’s vision and hearing into a virtually created one.

What are the Benefits of AR and VR in Museums? 1.

Improving the Visitor Experience

» Increased reality and VR innovations that gained attention around the world have a strong ability to draw people and add something different to the law of "rolling around and looking" from the thumb.

Engaging more tourists

» A lot of people are looking for something new, so they get a chance to look at a work of art from a whole different perspective with AR or VR. Sometimes VR and even less AR are expanding the prospect of visiting museums for people with limited mobility.

Increase of fresh revenue

» According to figures, many museums pay for less than 27 per cent of their annual budget by ticket purchases. Virtual reality or virtual reality technology is an innovative way to get people back and get more visitors. » Create a more dynamic and interactive exhibition that produces a completely different experience; it can lead to a deeper understanding of that event or place than simply reading or looking at pictures. The costs of developing a museum project may be high in the initial stage, but pay off when attendance increases.

How do museums apply VR&AR? There were times when museums were more static and less creative. Now they try to create the most interactive space possible to impress their visitors. For this, they implement virtual reality in the museum environment.

This virtual reality technology can be used as: » Experience altering (VR lets a person actually step inside art and get yet another perspective on it). » Attractions (museums along with other educational institutions introduce virtual reality slides and roller coasters to attract more visitors and keep them entertained while they spend time in the institution). » Personal experience (with the help of virtual reality, a person can not only imagine how a particular sight or individual fit in the context but actually interact with them and experience special involvement. For example, in VR, people can touch and move museum objects or walk through a historical scene). » A scaling option (a regular museum can fit a specific number of visitors simultaneously. With virtual reality, the total multiplies – people are able to access the exhibitions digitally). » Through virtual reality, history and culture literally come to life. It adds dynamics and liveliness to the ever-boring exhibits. Moreover, it lets people experience something they might not be able to experience otherwise. » To determine the availability Of materials and Human resources.

What is the Idea of the Storyteller ? Âť We thought to design the storyteller as a fixed circulation to make the visitor live the story of the ancient era of the tombs from its early beginning to how it stands out nowadays at the end. So we inspired the idea from another projects illustrated by the mentioned images to simplify our way to make the storyteller functional space.

Nature Sea Tides movement Waves at the shore

Sea tides effect on a sand castle

Design Process

Concept Statement

Architectural concept: Âť We got inspired from the behavior of the tidal waves on the sea shore and its affect on a sand castle or a seashell and how the sea wave contain the shell leaving it by drawing curved lines in a glorious way, the transformation of the Greek columns to its new shape and proportions to keep up with the modern architecture and finally the glass curtain wall of the ground (to ensure the view of the cemeteries to outside walkers and also the sea view from inside), we handled that by hanging over the typical floors.

Design Process

Concept Statement Parametric concept: » We ‘ve chosen this formation as this makes the possibility of natural ventilation increases and reliefs the climate of the building » Using the large glass facades on the north direction to allow the natural light to enter the building & to offer the maximum sea view. » Using parametric shade on the southern façade to prevent heat from direct sunlight but also allow a natural light to enter. » Using pv cells on the parametric shading to collect the sunlight and produce energy. » Using green roof to decrease heat island effect and collect rain water to reuse it.

Concept Analysis

1. Determine the shape of the land and the area of the ancient tombs.

2-Grid based on the direction of wind & project program..

Life Safety Fire fighting Wet Fire Sprinkler Systems:

1. Automatic Sprinkler Heads

» The wet-pipe system employs automatic sprinklers attached to a piping system connected to a water supply. The water discharges immediately from sprinklers opened by a fire. Only those sprinklers which have been operated by heat over the fire will discharge water.

» A body, which includes the orifice (opening).

Four major components: » Automatic sprinkler heads » Piping

» A release mechanism that holds a cap in place over the orifice. » A deflector that directs the water in a spray pattern and its scope 3.7m.

2. Sprinkler Piping » Network of pipes that delivers water to sprinkler heads.

3. Valves

» Control valves » A water supply, which may or may not include a fire pump

» A sprinkler system includes several different valves such as: » Main water supply control valve, Alarm valve.

4. Water Supplies » Water may come from municipal water system, onsite storage tanks, or static water sources.

Flat Slab

What is Flat Slab? The flat slab is a two-way reinforced concrete slab that usually does not have beams and girders, and the loads are transferred directly to the supporting concrete columns.

Dimensions: » Span :4-8m » Slab Depth :Span/36 » Column Size: 30.5-61 cm » Drop Panel Width: 1/3 Span Length (Minimum) » Drop Panel Depth: .25 x Slab Thickness

132

Structure System

Flat Slab Why we use the Flat Slab in our building ? » Construction of flat slabs is one of the quickest methods available » It reduces the overall height of the structure. » Flat slabs are capable to carry concentrated loads. » Requires less formwork.

» Better quality control. » Installation of sprinkler and other piping and utilities are easier due to absent of beams. » It gives a better appearance and better diffusion of light. » Better fire resistant than other floor systems. » Flexibility in room layout. » Reinforcement placement is easier.

133

Structure System

Waffle Slab What is waffle slab? » A waffle slab is a type of building material that has two-directional reinforcement on the outside of the material, giving it the shape of the pockets on a waffle. » Why we use the waffle slab in our building ? » They are used on flat sites. » No beam excavation is required. » Waffle slabs provide stiffer and lighter slabs » The speed of construction for such slab is fast

» It uses 30% less concrete and 20% less steel than a raft slab. » It has good finishes. » fire resistant. » Several services like lighting, plumbing pipes, electrical wiring, air conditioning, insulation materials etc. can be provided within the depth of waffle slab by providing holes in the waffle bottom surface.

The most common types of solar energy 1. 2. 3. 4.

Photovoltaic systems [pv] Solar water heating systems Solar power plants Passive solar heating

We used the PV system: One of the most common ways to use solar power is to use photovoltaic systems or as they are also known solar cell systems, which produce electricity directly from sunlight.

A photovoltaic system is made up of different components. These include: » PV modules (groups of PV cells), which are commonly called PV panels; » Charge controller » One or more batteries;

Pv system components

» An inverter for a utility-grid-connected system and when alternating current (ac) rather than direct current (dc) is required; » Wiring; and Mounting hardware or a framework.

149

Building systems

Solar system study We used pv [Grid‐connected system] solar cells are connected in series. As a consequence, the individual voltages of each cell are added together The result is the formation of a PV module, the main element of a PV system.

Pv cell

Pv module

advantages » avoid costly storage systems (like batteries).

» to reduce the high losses. » The PV modules produce direct current (DC)

Pv system array

Pv panel

» An electrical device called inverter is used to convert the DC to AC. » The inverter is installed with switches on each side to allow it to be isolated for maintenance. » A further switch gives the user a point of emergency isolation, and an energy meter is normally added to enable the visualization and control of the performance.

Photovoltaic modules can either be:

» applied on top of the building skin (BAPV‐Building Added Photovoltaics), » integrated into the envelope constructive system (BIPV‐Building Integrated Photovoltaics).

We used

» BAPV on the roof » BIPV with the parametric shading

150

Solar system study Opaque – Flat roof [BAPV on the roof]

EXTERNAL DEVICES [ BIPV with the parametric shading ]

In the case of flat opaque roofs, we used PV systems with different tilt angles

Photovoltaics can be also used as external devices on the building skin.

Laminates are added with rack supporting standard glass‐Tedlar modules or to use specific tilted rack system for thin film Laminates

Photovoltaic modules can be used as shading devices. Quite common these are semi‐transparent glass‐glass components integrated as canopies or louvers, but there are also movable shutters with semi‐transparent crystalline or thin film.

Green roof Extensive green roof systems establish plant cover that will (after a consolidation period of variable duration) maintain itself somewhat autonomously with little or no need for artificial watering. The main plants used in our systems are succulent plants from the crassulaceae family (especially sedum), which require little wateR, further explanation in plants selection topic.

Green roofs benefits: » Economic benefits and increased value of the property. » Creating of a new natural habitat for flora » Reduced amount of rainwater returning to the process of water circulation in nature. » Reduced impact of urban heat islands. » Absorbing the harmful effects of pollutants. » Use of solar energy in the most rational way. » New areas for rest, relaxation and interaction of residents.

Green roof layers: » The vegetable layer » Soil layer » Filter layer: A layer to filter the water and purify it from impurities. » Water Storage Layer: A layer in which the surplus water from plant irrigation is stored and it is discharged freely when plants need it. » Layer to protect insulation: It is a layer of polypropylene and polyester based on protecting the waterproofing layers. » Polystyrene layer: A layer to isolate heat and prevent water leakage. » Insulating layer for carrion: Resistant and inhibit the growth of plant roots. » A waterproofing layer: It works to prevent water from reaching the roof of the building. » Bitumen isolation.

Rain water harvesting system

3-Point Leed Assessment Rainwater Management

Is a technology that collects and stores rainwater for human use.

Uses: » Toilet flushing » Garden watering » Washing hands » Irrigation (green roof) » cleaning

Components of a Rainwater Harvesting System » a collection (catchment) area » a conveyance system consisting of pipes and gutters » a storage facility » a delivery system consisting of a tap or pump » a disinfection system (optional)

157

Building Systems

Rain water harvesting system 1. collection (catchment) area Âť A collection or catchment system is generally a simple structure such as roofs and/or gutters that direct rainwater into the storage facility. The amount and quality of rainwater collected from a catchment area depends upon the rain intensity, roof surface area, type of roofing material and the surrounding environment.

2. conveyance system Âť A conveyance system is required to transfer the rainwater from the roof catchment area to the storage system by connecting roof drains (drain pipes) and piping from the roof top to one or more downspouts that transport the rainwater through a filter system to the storage tanks. Before water is stored in a storage tank or cistern, and prior to use, it should be filtered to remove particles and debris.

3. Storage Facility Âť Storage tanks or cisterns are used to store harvested rainwater for use when needed. Depending on the space available, these tanks can be constructed above grade, partly underground, or below grade. They may be constructed as part of the building, or may be built as a separate unit located some distance away from the building.

158

Building Systems

Rain water harvesting system 4. Water filtration and treatment system The following are two typical disinfection systems.

1. UV light sterilization UV light sterilization requires rainwater to be virtually free of any large sediment.

Advantages of UV Sterilization » Ultraviolet lights bulbs have a lifespan of 12 months to 2 years. » UV units can handle large flow rates. » UV light treated water can be used immediately after it finishes treatment. » Rainwater treated with UV is less of a corrosion risk to exposed metal.

2. Chlorine Sterilization » Adding chlorine to water is a simple and effective way to sterilize filtered rainwater. » Recommended concentration: » 30 minutes after the initial dose, we can use it.

Advantages of Chlorine Sterilization » Chlorine treatment is an ideal solution for rainwater that needs to be stored for future use.

» Rainwater is compliant with the treatment regulations at all times, as a sampling pump will automatically regulate the appropriate chlorine concentration.

Grey Water Recycling system Components of a Greywater Recycling System Components : » Greywater Collection » Storage Facilities » Conveyance System » Treatment System » Using Recycled Greywater At present, several water recycling systems exist which can be used to:

1. Recycle the water without purification » This is used in certain agricultural companies (e.g., nurseries) and in dwellings where potable water is not » required (e.g., garden and land irrigation, toilet flushing,………..etc.).

2. Recycle the water after purification » Water purification/decontamination systems are used for » applications where potable water is required (e.g., drinking, » and/or other domestic tasks such as washing, showering,……..etc.).

161

Building Systems

Grey Water Recycling system Sequence of Greywater Recycling System 1.

Greywater collection: Greywater is collected from drains in bathtub, shower, washing machines, and wash sinks (household wastewater excluding toilet wastes).

2. Greywater is conveyed to the treatment system which is built on the basement floor of the buildings 3. Greywater treatment system : Generally, the treatment system has three parts. They are separation system, wastewater treatment system and the disinfection system 4. Using Recycled Greywater : The treated greywater can be sent to toilet or washing machines in the building for reuse. But it is never equivalent to potable water

162

Bulding Systems

Grey Water Recycling system 7- Using Recycled Greywater With High Efficiency Toilets (HETs) Dual Flush Toilets

Double Cyclone features:

The main feature of the toilet is that it has two buttons for releasing water. It outputs water in both (3 liter) (6 liter) capacities. The smaller lever is designed for liquid waste, and the larger is designed for solid waste.

Hole-free rim design means less trapped dirt and bacteria (less cleaning). HETs use a redesigned bowl that only requires less water for any flush. There are only a few brands of HETs now available, but more are expected In the near future.
