Atrium Skylight

Lights are adjustable on the scaffold Natural Light is tunable Large openings on either side of the shell allow for sunlight to enter from the sides.

Structure allows for open floor plan for changing exhibitions. Weight loads all transfer through the space frame.

Double Service Wall allows for mechanical systems to be enclosed in the structure and airflow Spiral Stair to minimize space taken by circulation in main exhibition space.

Structure allows for program to be placed inside.

Lowered Ceilings in the basement allow for the placement of services in the ceiling.

Mechanical Systems enclosed in Benches on Ground Floor Thermal Mass of Ground works to keep lower level cool.

solar panels and strategically placed skylights helps minimize the use of electricity

a glass enclosure above the wood structure allows for a luminous roof patio, also allows passive heating to warm up the roof space a wood space frame supports the building’s roof, held together by screws, thereby eliminating the need for metal joints in the ceiling space frame structure supported by diagonal pin columns (triangulate support for the grid system)

interior envelope, allows passive solar space heating, temperature control for the galleries

a grid work of wood plies are interlaced to create an outer screen, gaps allow ventilation for exterior circulation, also provides opportunities for glimpses for downtown and the mountains

exterior egress stairs is located between the building’s outer screen and glass enclosure, allowing it to wrap around the galleries which allows easy climate maintenance for the museum. maximally insulated, air tight, opaque walls, utilizing a unique woven wood (resin impregnated rain screen

exterior grand stairs is located between the building’s outer screen and glass enclosure, allowing it to wrap around the galleries which allows easy climate maintenance for the museum.

concept: put the most demanding spaces at the center of the building and surround them with circulation space, this created a double layer - a wrapper or envelope - around the galleries that helps maintain climate conditions in that space Structure Enclosure

Part 1

Part 3 materials: 1. steel 2. light wood 3. heavy timber (engineered wood)

Span

length of span is determined by: 1. local building code 2. wind shear 3. Seismic activity 4. material 5. aesthetic reference 6. climate 7. configuration of part 2 8. dimension of part 3

height and width of structural members determined by: 1. local building code 2. wind shear 3. seismic activity 4. length of structural span from part 1

H W

Many forces impact the dimensions of different space frames, but of the most significant are the Local building code for the area, the average wind shear in the area of the site, and the average seismic activity in the area of the site. These factors play a large role in determining how strong the space frame needs to be, and therefore determines the general aesthetic of the structural system.

Part 2

Shape of Individual parts is determined by: 1. breathability of structure 2. duct systems chosen for building. 3. aesthetic preference 4. Budget lattice structure - two way grid

lattice structure - three way grid etc...

shape of frame parts is determined by: 1. local building code 2. wind shear 3. seismic activity 4. material 5. aesthetic preference 6. climate Parametric Relationships - Space Frame

five platonic solids and their nets: a. tetrahedron b. cube c. octahedron d. dodecahedron e. icosahedron

In designing built form in the weight of the current political atmosphere, it is imperative that the forces of climate, community, and culture are all considered along with anticipation for how they might change. Through optimization of form, a system can consider the percolation of ground water, display how force moves through the building, facilitate genuine comfort, allow the ability to change program through adjustable form, and withstand lateral and vertical loads. This kind of optimization seeks a form that can be adjusted independent from gravity loads and expressed as a natural response to its context.

airplane - semi monocoque frame - there are five major stresses to which all aircraft are subjected: tension, compression, torsion, shear and bending - the monocoque (single shell) fuselage relies largely on the strength of the skin or covering to carry the primary loads - different portions of the same fuselage may belong to either of the two classes

02/03/2017 1.0 Structural and Passive Systems

typhoon class - submarine frame

ship steel frame

- the typhoon class pressure hulls are made of titanium. - the typhoon submarine class is the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest submarine class carrying 20 R-39 rockets, - each submarine has the length of about 175 m, width of 23.3 m, height 25 m and the displacement of 48000 tons, which makes them the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest submarines.

- overcome the strength/weight problem of monocoque construction, a modification called semimonocoque construction was developed. - additionally, the skin is reinforced by longitudinal members called longerons - longerons usually extend across several frame members and help the skin support primary bending loads. They are typically made of aluminum alloy either of a single piece or a built-up construction.

Nature uses vegetated depressions, wetlands, marshes, etc. to clean storm water runoff by removing sediments, turbidity, heavy metals, and other pollutants. How this is accomplished is complex. Some pollutants are removed by vegetation uptake, some by natural flocculation from decomposing vegetation, some by just slowing the flow down enough for sedimentation to occur, and some by biotaconsumption and ionic attraction around the root structure.

By developing the existing train station and intergrate a dual circulation, it addresses traffic issues entering and existing Gillette Stadium on an event day as well as eases the traffic issues on both I-95 and Highway Route 1. Furthermore it provides a more integrated and holistic experience around Gillette Stadium and Patriot Place.

By creating a series of Morse Code Samples and listening to them in series, we were able to abstract the resonance of each of our four outcomes. The audio tracks were overlayed on each other in different keys depending on whether they contributed to an increase or decrease in disorder. Tracks were also tested on an oscilloscope.

A Floating Junction: Addressing Culture and Gathering through Infrastructural Decisions In designing built form in the weight of the current political atmosphere, it is imperative to expect and harbor change in ecology and human culture. By anticipating ecological and transportation change in building through a series of three design decisions, space starts to form where culture can begin to incubate. Strategic and Minimal Grounding, allows for cohabitation of flora, fauna, and people. Natural Remediation seeks to revitalize landscape that has been processed by development (Kraft Group). Finally, Facilitating Circulation Change to bring people to different intersection paths is vital in constructing a new infrastructure and beginning to form new networks
