THE BREWHOUSE SITE, CHRISTIAN IV'S BREWHOUSE, THE BUILDING WAS NOT ORIGINALLY BUILT FOR THE PURPOSE OF BREWING BEER. IT WAS CONSTRUCTED FOR MILITARY PURPOSES AS A CORNER BASTION, PART OF CHRISTIAN IV'S FORTIFICATION OF THE CITY.
FREDERIKSHOLMS KANAL IS ONE OF THE MOST IDYLLIC STRETCHES IN COPENHAGEN. FEW PLACES FEATURE SUCH EXTENSIVE AND SUBTLY PRESENT HISTORY IN SUCH AN EXQUISITE PROMENADE BLEND OF CULTURAL HERITAGE AND LISTED BUILDINGS.
THE LAST VACANT PLOT ADJACENT TO SLOTSHOLMEN.DUE TO GENERAL CIRCUMSTANCES, INCLUDING MATERIAL SHORTAGES AT THIS POINT, TWO YEARS INTO THE GERMAN OCCUPATION, THE COMPETITION DID NOT LEAD TO A TANGIBLE RESULT.
DURING THE 1960S THERE WERE CONSIDERATIONS OF BUILDING A NEW MINISTRY OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS ON THE SITE. ULTIMATELY, HOWEVER, THE CHOICE FELL ON THE MINISTRY’S CURRENT SITE, ON CHRISTIANSHAVN, AT THE CORNER OF STRANDGADE.
IN LINE WITH REQUESTS IN THE BRIEF FOR THE BRYGHUS COMPETITION 50 YEARS EARLIER,THE JURY FOUND HENNING LARSEN’S PROJECT TO BE THE ONE THAT BEST MET THE EXTENSIVE DEMANDS FOR THE BUILDING, WHICH WAS THEN SCRAPED
OMA HAS COMPLETED BLOX, DESIGNED BY OMA / ELLEN VAN LOON WITH ADRIANNE FISHER, IN THE BRYGHUSGRUNDEN DISTRICT, WAS OPENED IN AN OFFICIAL CEREMONY BY QUEEN MARGRETHE II OF DENMARK ON FRIDAY, MAY 4, 2018

I SITE CONTEXT
"COPENHAGENIZE YOUR CITY" CYCLING IS WIDELY ACKNOWLEDGED TO BE A CENTRAL ELEMENT OF A SUSTAINABLE TRANSPORT POLICY AT THE MUNICIPAL LEVEL. TO SUPPORT AND ENCOURAGE WIDESPREAD CYCLING, INFRASTRUCTURE AND PLANNING ARE CRITICAL ELEMENTS. COPENHAGEN HAS SET ITSELF THE GOAL OF BECOMING 'THE WORLD'S BEST BICYCLE CITY BY 2025'. ACHIEVING THIS GOAL IS ALSO VIEWED AS INTEGRAL TO THE CITY'S HEALTH PLAN, TO THE ENVIRONMENTAL GOAL OF MAKING THE CITY CO2 NEUTRAL BY 2025, AND TO ENHANCING THE LIVABILITY OF THE CITY.

THE BUILDING FEATURES AN AUDITORIUM, EXHIBITION SPACES, CAFÉS AND OFFICES, AS WELL AS 22 APARTMENTS ACROSS THE TOP FLOORS, AND RECREATIONAL INDOOR AND OUTDOOR AREAS. THESE DIFFERING SPACES ARE ARRANGED AS A SERIES OF STACKED CUBES THAT FORM A TERRACED LANDSCAPE, REQUIRING A STRUCTURAL SCHEME WITH SIGNIFICANT CANTILEVERS, LONG SPANS, UNALIGNED GRIDS AND DOUBLE HEIGHT VOLUMES. 22

CONSTRUCTION PROGRESS
THE EASTERN AND SOUTHERN SITE BOUNDARIES WERE ORIGINALLY RETAINED BY TIMBER AND STONE BLOCK QUAY WALLS WITH GROUND ANCHORS. A BERM WAS PLACED IN THE WATER IN FRONT OF THE EXISTING HARBOUR WALL TO ACT AS A TEMPORARY PROP WHILE THE GROUND ANCHORS WERE REMOVED. A TEMPORARY SHEET PILE WALL WAS INSTALLED TO ALLOW THE BASEMENT EXCAVATION AND CONSTRUCTION OF THE PERMANENT PILED BASEMENT WALLS.
IV STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS
USING SECANT PILE CONSTRUCTION, CONSTRUCTION OF ALTERNATING UNREINFORCED PILES, THE BASEMENT WALL COMPRISES INTERLOCKING BORED CONCRETE 880MM DIAMETER PILES AT 1.1M CENTRES, PROVIDING BOTH THE PERMANENT AND TEMPORARY SUPPORT FOR THE BASEMENT EXCAVATION . FOLLOWING BASEMENT CONSTRUCTION THE BERM WAS REMOVED. FURTHER OUT INTO THE HARBOUR A RUBBLE REEF WAS PUT IN PLACE TO PROTECT THE HARBOUR WALL AND BUILDING FROM COLLISION WITH MARINE TRAFFIC.
47
CONSTRUCTION PROGRESS
IV STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS
WITH A CONVENTIONAL GRID STRUCTURE NOT FEASIBLE BECAUSE OF THE OVERLAPPING VOLUMES AND COLUMN-FREE SPACES REQUIRED, ARUP DEVELOPED A SCHEME COMPRISING AN INTERCONNECTED SYSTEM OF TRANSFER STRUCTURES.
THROUGH FURTHER DETAILED DESIGN AND RATIONALISATION, THE GRID WAS RE-ALIGNED AND THE TRUSSES OPTIMISED, WITH ARUP’S FINAL SCHEME AN INTERCONNECTING FRAMEWORK OF 18 STEEL TRUSSES THAT TYPICALLY SPAN 30M.
NUMBER OF INTERVENTIONS SUCH AS DOWNSTAND BEAMS, TRUSSES AND HANGERS, AN INITIAL 48 TRUSS SOLUTION WAS DEVELOPED. WITH A WORKING SCHEME IN PLACE, THE CHALLENGE WAS TO REDUCE THE NUMBER OF TRUSSES TO ENSURE CONSTRUCTION VIABILITY AND IMPROVE EFFICIENCY.
THEY INCLUDE A NUMBER OF ONE- AND TWO-STOREY DEEP TRUSSES WITH DEPTHS VARYING FROM 2.4M TO 8.4M. THESE CREATE LARGE COLUMN-FREE SPACES WITHIN THE BUILDING AND ALSO BRIDGE OVER THE ROAD.
48
CONSTRUCTION PROGRESS
ONE OF THE KEY ELEMENTS TO DEVELOPING THE SITE WAS TO DESIGN A SCHEME THAT COULD SPAN OVER AND UNDER THE RING ROAD, ALLOWING PEDESTRIANS ACCESS TO THE HARBOUR WITHOUT HAVING TO CROSS A ROAD THAT IS USED BY MORE THAN 25,000 VEHICLES A DAY. TRAFFIC ON CHRISTIANS BRYGGE SUPPORTED ON A SECTION OF GROUND FLOOR SLAB. TO ENSURE NOT CAUSE NOISE OR VIBRATION BUILDING,
CROSSES THE SITE THE BUILDING’S THIS TRAFFIC DOES ISSUES WITHIN THE
IV STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS
575MM DEEP PRECAST PRE-STRESSED CONCRETE BRIDGE BEAMS WITH A 75MM CONCRETE TOPPING SPAN ONTO ISOLATING BEARINGS ON THE SUPPORTING WALLS AND A SPINE BEAM. CAREFUL SEQUENCING WAS REQUIRED DURING CONSTRUCTION, AS ONLY VERY LIMITED ROAD CLOSURES WERE ALLOWED BY THE LOCAL AUTHORITY. PRIOR TO THE TRUSSES THAT SPAN ABOVE THE ROAD BEING ERECTED DURING OVERNIGHT ROAD CLOSURES, A CRASH DECK WAS BUILT OVER THE ROAD TO PROTECT VEHICLES.
49
CONSTRUCTION PROGRESS
THE MAIN EXHIBITION FLOOR’S STRUCTURAL DEPTH IS 2M, WITH THE FLOOR AT THIS LEVEL SPANNING ALMOST 24M OVER THE ROAD. THIS SPAN IS ACHIEVED WITH A 1.6M DEEP PLATE GIRDER, SUPPORTED ON STEEL COLUMNS. A REINFORCED CONCRETE STRUCTURAL TOPPING TO THE PRECAST CONCRETE FLOOR INCREASES THE STRUCTURAL MASS FOR ACOUSTIC ATTENUATION, ALTHOUGH IT IS ALSO BENEFICIAL FOR THE FLOOR’S DYNAMIC PERFORMANCE.
IV STRUCTURAL ANALYSIS
AN ASSESSMENT WAS MADE OF FOOTFALL-INDUCED VIBRATIONS THAT COULD OCCUR FROM THE EXHIBITION FLOOR TO ENSURE VIBRATION TRANSFER DID NOT ADVERSELY AFFECT THE OTHER AREAS OF THE BUILDING. THE FOOTBALL ANALYSIS DETERMINED THE STRUCTURE WAS WITHIN THE GIVEN ACCEPTABLE LIMITS. SPÆNCOM HAS PRODUCED ABOUT 2,500 PRECAST ELEMENTS – 2274 HOLLOW-CORE SLABS AND 227 WALLS PANELS FOR THE BLOX CONSTRUCTION IN COPENHAGEN.

FACADE TREATMENT APPROACH
V FACADE ANALYSIS
DUE TO THE PRIME LOCATION OF THE SITE, BLOX FACADES HELP TO EXPRESS THE RICH DISTRICTS OF COPENHAGEN. THE MAIN CONCEPT OF THE GLASS FACADES ARE TO CONTRAST WITH THE SURROUNDING HISTORICAL OLD TOWN DISTRICTS AND TO EMPHASISE THE COPENHAGEN HARBOUR. DURING DESIGN STAGE, EFFORTS WERE PUT IN RESEARCHING NEW SOLUTIONS TO OFFSETS AND NEUTRALISE THE CARBON USAGE. THIS IS TO ENSURE THAT CO2 EMISSIONS AND EMBODIED CARBON ARE GREATLY REDUCED DURING CONSTRUCTION AND OPERATIONS PHASES. IN ADDITION, BLOX HAS A TOTAL OF 54 DIFFERENT FACADE TYPES WHICH INCORPORATES DIFFERENT REQUIREMENTS IN RELATION TO THERMAL AND SOLAR PERFORMANCE, ACOUSTIC PERFORMANCE ETC.
3 MAIN FACADES:
TINTED GLASS PANELS HIGH ENERGY EFFICIENCY REFLECTING THE SKY AND SEAWATER ALLOW VISUAL CONNECTION TO THE OUTSIDE
WHITE FRITTED GLASS PANELS PREVENT EXCESSIVE HEAT GAIN ENSURE PRIVACY ALLOW NATURAL DAYLIGHT TO PASS THROUGH
DARK METAL SCREENS BUFFER OFF HEAT FROM OUTSIDE GREATLY ENHANCE PRIVACY
