CODE ANALYSIS
Architectural Narrative Prepared by STG Design, Inc. A New Place for a New Image Our team seeks to portray this varied program in an equally complementary set of layered forms and textures, rendered in a harmonious range of colors and materials. The new building is simply a worthy companion, with its own discrete character and demeanor. An important advantage of this arrangement is scale: the total complex will not read as one extremely large building, but rather is articulated to relate to the scale of the surrounding building context. Regional and Campus Character An equally strong motivation for the new design is a new perspective on the architecture as a new direction for the corporation, context of the campus and as an extension towards the Central Texas region. The striking, iconic character of local materials such as native limestone, concrete and cement plaster is represented on the proposed new building, while other materials such as architectural cement fiber panels and metal roofing & fascia are offered as accents. The colors and rustic texture of the limestone are the inspiration for a new kind of façade treatment on the campus.
Use of Material to Inspire Innovation The common area will consist of interior finishes that carry some form of the exterior materials into the interior, accent colors, and a durable flooring surface such as stained/sealed concrete or even porcelain tile will be required. At the second level, the open office areas, as well as the various closed conference rooms will have interior finishes such as carpet tile, painted gypsum board with certain areas designated with accent colors, acoustical ceiling tile with some areas that may be open to the structure above. The restrooms will have porcelain tile flooring with ceramic tile on the walls. The toilet partitions in the restroom spaces will be ceiling mounted and will be finished with plastic laminate veneer while the lavoratory sinks will be under-counter mounted within a solid surface material. The incorporation of Wilsonart products throughout the building will allow the company to showcase past accomplishments, as well as introduce new and upcoming products to the marketplace. The organization of the common area allows for continuous access into the building corridor paths with a termination into the Break Room that allows for an entry into a courtyard with native vegetation. The large glass structure in the Lobby allows for visitors and staff the ability to enjoy the entry courtyard and possible fountain from a conditioned environment inside.
Site Organization and Reflecting Solar Orientation The sun is a powerful influence in the central Texas climate. The design for the Office Building recognizes the great differences in solar orientation for all four sides of the building. Facing south towards Loop 363, the fiber-cement panels along with the limestone masonry surrounding deep-set windows with even deeper sun-shades may be introduced in an effort to assist by shading the natural day-lighting into the open office areas and associated spaces. Because the actual orientation is some degrees off of north-south, the west elevation windows have an extended roof that will offer protection to those occupants along the perimeter exterior wall. This roof extension can also offer multiple exterior areas that may be used by staff members that wish to conduct team meetings outside. The east elevation offers a series of ribbon-window openings to take advantage of the eastern sun the mornings provide. At the north side facing the railroad tracks a more planar, glassy façade opens the interior of the building to what could eventually be a garden area or open to an employee recreational area that can be shared by staff members from Temple North. The complementary character of north and south addresses not only solar heat gain, but the nature of space around. The north side will reflect the landscape, giving a proposed courtyard garden additional depth, while the south presents strong texture and shade-and-shadow play throughout the day, creating an inviting part to the center of campus. Program Planning The north/south duality with the height of the building exterior invites indirect sunlight from the east-west direction into the building’s interior and this feature serves as a central common area. This common area will consist of Reception area, Gallery, Coffee area and Break Room. The function of this space is not only for it to be used for the spaces listed above but, this double-volume space will be used as a display area ‘showcasing’ components representative of Wilsonart history, the Wilsonart products and upcoming design innovations soon to be introduced to the design market. The vast openness of the departments off of the central common area creates a transparency allowing for occupant interaction and team collaboration.

ARCHITECTURE NARRATIVE
Structural Design Narrative Prepared by Datum Engineers, Inc. Building Code 2009 International Building Code Design Loads In general, the office building is to be designed for the minimum loads specified in the building code. The structure is understood to not require a fire rating in most areas, but must be non-combustible. We anticipate the floor will typically be designed for a minimum live load of 100 psf if a grade-supported structure is utilized. The office roof will be designed for the code standard 20 psf live load. Additional structural capacity will be provided to support small rooftop mechanical units, as their location is established during the design. Lateral load resisting systems will be designed to resist code standard 90 mph winds (3 second gust), considering open terrain (Exposure C in the IBC). The standard wind importance factor (1.0) is to be used, since the use of the building is not classified as an “essential facility." Site and Foundations A Geotechnical Report by Terracon, dated Novemeber 21, 2012, based on the a 2-story Executive Office Building, was made available to us. Although the current EOB design is a single story, we anticipate the foundations will be designed in accordance with this same Geotechnical Report, pending Terracon's approval. We anticipate that column and exterior wall loads will be supported upon drilled straight shaft piers into shallow limestone. The ground floor is expected to be a soil supported concrete slab-on-grade over a prepared building pad. According to the Geotechnical Report, the upper 3 feet of soils, some of which are expansive, should be excavated and replaced with compacted select fill to reduce the PVR to ¾" or less, assuming that the finished floor elevation of the building is at or slightly above existing grade. Perimeter grade beams are expected to be cast directly against fill. Structural Systems The office roof structural system will be “light steel” framing, composed of 1 1/2" steel deck supported by open web steel bar joists at 6' on center and wide flange steel beams. The roof structure will be enhanced to support roof top mechanical units, where these occur. For buildings of this size and height, this system is the most economical and flexible structural system, typically. Columns will be structural steel wide flanges or tubes. Lateral wind loads will be resisted by steel braced frames at selected interior locations. The roof will be framed to maximize column free areas, to allow maximum flexibility of the space. Recycled materials (steel and fly ash) will be specified where feasible without significant cost impact.

Landscape Design Narrative Prepared by Coleman & Associates
Existing Site Conditions The site of the proposed Wilsonart Office Building is currently a grass field with a variety of grass types. A railroad track previously bisected the site but has since been removed. The site is adjacent to an existing Wilsonart factory/warehouse with existing parking. The property is located within the City of Temple. City of Temple landscape requirements will apply. Landscape Project Spaces The new building will create several new spaces for specific design consideration. Courtyard: a courtyard will be designed as part of the project that will provide a place for employees to gather in large or small groups. The courtyard may include, decorative pavements, seat walls, shade structures, site furnishings, landscaping and irrigation. Main view to building: a formal procession from the entry drive and parking to the front door will include a higher level of formal plantings with irrigation. Site furnishings and possibly flag poles could be included. Connection to existing facilities: A strong connection to the existing buildings will be important to create a campus like environment and to provide safe, convenient, shade for pedestrian circulation. Parking lot landscaping will include trees to provide shade and low plantings in islands. Foundation planting will be located at appropriate locations to accent the architecture with shade trees located around the perimeter of the building and site to accent the architecture and provide shade. The Landscape and Irrigation System will be designed to Silver LEED standards. This will be achieved by selecting and specifying plant materials that are native or adaptive to this region of Texas. These plants are general low-water use, slow growing, and thrive in full sun and high temperatures. They also require minimal soil modifications and mulching. Mulching can often be accomplished with gravel or small rock layers; which when used effectively; can be aesthetically pleasing; resulting in a regional flavor. Areas of sod may be planted with native grasses and will not have a permanent irrigation system. The Landscape and Irrigation System will be designed and specified to minimize maintenance expenditures. Planting and Horticultural Requirements Plant Materials will be selected that are: Low water usage Easy to maintain – requiring minimal manual care, fertilization or herbicides Long-living Tough; resistant to pedestrian traffic and general public abuse
Aesthetically pleasing and colorful whenever feasible Shade providing The following is a preliminary plant list that may be used on this project. Large Trees Pecan Texas Red Oak Lacey Oak Bur Oak Chinquapin Oak Shumard Oak Texas Live Oak Bald Cypress Cedar Elm Texas Pistache
