Concept

Brownfield development based on Critical Regionalism (Topography) and built sustainably (Material Usage) with Bio Mimicry (Namibian Desert Beetle).

Site Selection Criteria

The site selection is based on a research article published by Prof. Dr. Tim Mansfeldt and Prof. Dr. Georg Bareth. Which states that the site is being contaminated by COPR, which hamrs the land and its surroundings, causing land polution and water pollution. So the goal of the project is to make that toxic waste to an useful building material.

Recycling Of Chromite Waste (COPR) for Concrete

Abstract

The objective of this study is to identify the significant factors and interactions involved in maximizing compressive strength of concrete when chromium waste is used as admixture. In this respect, experimental factors at two levels, which are admixture type (chromite/ chromite+ superplastizer), admixture percentage (5- 15%) and cure duration (7-28 days), are selected as possible candidates affecting the compressive strength.

Materials & Methods

Super plasticizer and naphthalene sulfonate were added to the mixing water, which was then mixed with the cement. Mixing was carried out at the room temperature.

6- Mixed use Zone

7- Club house (Residential zone)

8- Children’s and Adult’s park (Residential zone)

9- Ramp to acess successive levels

14- Roof ventilation (retail Park)

The roof Skin ti Created using SubD with a poly carbonate material, to allow natural light, and a voronoi steel frame, providing suport to the whole structure.

The ground and first floor space is going to act as a prop to attract people into the site. thats why it must be well designed. This form is optimised for visal appeal an recreation.

This is the voronoi structure, which I’ve usedas a pavilion. Uses wood as the primary material annd steel as the structural material. The model is done using grasshopper.

This is a fluidic structure, comes as a part of recreational area. as it promotes tourism and stands as a infotainment hub. This is fundamentally buit for botanical exhibition, followed by, recreational activities, interactive hubs, restraunts, parks etc.

Bioinspired surfaces : Darkling beetles of the Namib Desert, live in one of the driest habitats in the world. It consist of superhydrophilic spots over a superhydrophobic background.

The surface consists of spots, size of 0.5 mm and a pitch of 1 mm was chosen, hydrophilic spot diameter: 0.2–0.5 mm, pitch: 0.5–1.5 mm.
