01 OPEN Sports school Delfshaven, Rotterdam 6th semester / January 2022 / 10 ECTS Design 6 / Building and technology Individual work Frank Schnater / F.R.Schnater@tudelft.nl
In the last design course in the bachelor Bouwkunde at TU Delft, students are in six weeks given to task to come up with a technically and architecturally integrated design for a sports school in Delfshaven Rotterdam. The structural concept of this design resembles
human
anatomy
itself.
It
consists of a loadbearing timber skeleton enveloped with a transparent and light skin; the façade of perforated steel. The building also draws inspiration from the historical shipyards of Delfshaven; big wooden ships carried by scaffolds, and the Temples at Olympia.
Axonometry of the loadbearing structure
Facade 5
On the building site stands a protected monument,
De
Nieuwe
Maaskant.
This design enters into a dialogue with De Nieuwe Maaskant, and responds with an interpretation of the elevated volume with passages cutting through the ground floor. The elevation of the sports halls, allows for an open space on the ground floor, free for people to move in, while generously maintaining the view from the dike out to the harbour.

1. Genanvendelse
(1)
(1)
Det har været udgangspunktet i HAL at genanvende så mange bygningskomponenter og materialer fra vognværkstedet som muligt. Her er vist stålsøjler, bjælker, tagspær og loftsbrædder fra vognværkstedet.

Både bjælker og tagspær fra vognværkstedet spænder for kort til at kunne anvendes 1:1 i HALS tagkonstruktion. Til gengæld kan tagspærene anvendes som konstruktionstræ i et nyt modulært facadesystem, og danner således grundlaget for modulmålet i HAL (3 m).
3000
(3) Facademodulet er bygget op af 3 dele: den udvendige facadebeklædning, isolationsdelen og den indvendige beklædning. Den indre og den ydre del består af genanvendte materialer fra vognværkstedets tagkonstruktion.
(3)
(4) 5000
5000
(4) I HAL er stålsøjler og -bjælker fra vognværkstedet genanvendt som hele bygningskomponenter. Genanvendte materialer fra tagspær og -brædder udgør ca. 2/3 af facademodulerne. Samlingerne i HAL er hovedsageligt mekaniske, inklusiv fundamentet, som er et skruefundament. Og bygningen er kendetegnet af stor repetetion, hvilket gør det nemmere at industrialisere byggeprocessen samt at genanvende komponenterne efter endt levetid.
3000 3000
JERNBANEBYENS ORDEN Jernbanebyen er et hel særligt sted. Skinner trækker sig som snore fra alle landets hjørner og samles hér i et ordnet system. Store bygninger har gennem tiden på maskinel vis indordnet sig dette system. Og pulsen af indkomne toge fra landets fjerneste kroge har skabt en stemning af at være i konstant bevægelse. Der er et iboende paradoks i bestræbelsen på at designe en bygning, som på en og samme tid både relaterer sig til sine unikke omgivelser, men også er tilstrækkeligt universel til at kunne skilles ad og flyttes, med det formål at kunne passe ind et hvilket som helst andet sted. HALs tektonik og udtryk udspringer i høj grad af Jernbanebyens særlige karakteristika, men kan i sin programmering tilpasses og orienteres i relation til nye omgivelser. Ved opførelsen et andet sted, vil HAL på den måde stadig være en reference til, og fortælle historien om, hvor den kommer fra: nemlig Jernbanebyen. EN BYGNING PÅ SKINNER HAL drager inspiration fra skinnernes ordnende princip samt togvognenes nomadiske natur. På et skruefundament lægger HAL sig ”på skinner” over det eksisterende terræn og føjer sig til jernbanebyens orden. Hele bygningen, inklusiv fundament, kan altså flyttes og genanvendes. Dette efterlader byggegrunden som nærmest uberørt og reducerer HALs CO2 aftryk mærkbart sammenlignet med konventionelle betonfundamenter.
GENANVENDELSE Hvis vi som arkitekter skal løfte vores ansvar i den grønne omstilling, er vi nødt til i langt højere grad at se mod genanvendte og biogene materialer. Men allerbedst må det være, hvis vi kan bruge de materialer, som allerede er for hånden netop dér, hvor vi skal bruge dem. Det har været udgangspunktet for HAL at benytte så mange bygningskomponenter og materialer som muligt fra det transformerede vognværksted lige ved siden af byggepladsen. Dimensionerne i HAL udspringer på den måde fra de eksisterende bygningsdele i vognværkstedet (se ill. 1).
3000
som fritstående volumener inde i halrummet. Udover at disse volumener er rumskabende, afkomplicerer de også byggeriet, da de gør det nemt at ændre på indretningen, uden at det involverer klimaskærmen. HAL viser tydeligt hvordan den er bygget, og dermed også hvordan den kan skilles ad igen. I bedste fald er instruktioner overflødige.
3000
5000
HAL
På samme tid skaber det hævede plateau et nyt rum langs kanten af HAL. I dette flydende rum, på kanten mellem ude og inde, er der plads til at sætte sig ned, en anelse løftet over terrænet, og nyde solen og udsigten over sportsbanerne mod syd. Her er der plads til at mennesker kan indtage kanten på deres egen måde og plads til bare at være, hvad end man er forbipasserende eller bruger af faciliteterne i HAL.
(5)
3000
Ved enden af HALS levetid, kan facademodulerne genanvendes i andre typer bygninger. Modulmålet på 3 m, er eksempelvis velegnet til træbygger med CLT dæk, som produceres i en standard bredde på 3 m.
3000
HAL er en bygning, som efter bedste evne forsøger at give svar på, hvordan vi kan forestille os en byggeskik, hvor vi gør os umage med at genanvende, hvad allerede genanvendes kan, og gør det nemt og ligefrem at genanvende bygningsdele efter endt levetid. Alt sammen også med øje for den unikke kontekst samt en opmærksomhed på at skabe berigende hverdagsrammer for mennesker.
(5)
3000 3000
Genanvendte komponenter eller materialer
Det har været en udfordring, at de eksisterende søjler i vognværkstedet, med deres højde på omtrent 6 m, ikke er høje nok til mange typer sport. Tagkonstruktionen i HAL bidrager i ét greb, og med få ressourcer, til den ekstra rumhøjde, nødvendig for sport. I samme bevægelse imiterer den også de karakteristiske savtage så særegne for Jernbanebyen. De åbne ender antyder en lethed, der leder tankerne hen på bygningens nomadiske potentiale; for at flytte sig og blive genanvendt andre steder.
Delvist genanvendt materiale
2. Modul Facademodulet er bygget op af 3 dele:
3000
(a) Den udvendige facadebeklædning. En simpel træbeklædning bestående af de gamle loftsbrædder fra vognværkstedet samt reglar af de gamle tagspær.
HAL er ligefrem og enkel i sin konstruktion. Bygningen er præget af stor repetition, alle bygningskomponenter er synlige og bygningens delelementer er tydeligt adskilt. F.eks. er klimaskærmen adskilt fra de indre rum, der står (c)

(b) Isolationsdelen. En standard trækonstruktion med isolationsbatts (600 x 1200 mm) af græsisolering, som har et væsentligt lavere CO2 aftryk end stenuld. HAL er blot let isoleret, men ved fremtidig anvendelse af facademodulet i et andet byggeri, er det nemt at mindske U værdien på modulet ved at skifte isolationsdelen ud med en tykkere version. (c) Den indvendige beklædning. Ligeledes en simpel træbeklædning hvor både de gamle loftsbrædder og tømmeret fra vognværkstedets tagspær anvendes.

3. Tagkonstruktion Tagkonstruktionen bidrager med få ressourcer til den ekstra fri højde, som er nødvendig for boldspil i hallen (> 8 m). I samme bevægelse relaterer den sig til det øvrige taglandskab i Jernbanebyen.
Fra fodboldbanerne
Regnvand fra taget kan evt. samles op i beholdere over cafe og omklædningsrum og anvendes i et gråvandssystem. (Et gråvandssystem kan f.eks. anvendes til skyl i toiletterne, hvilket i dag udgør omtrent 1/4 af vandforbruget i boliger.)
Ankomst fra nord
4. Plads til bare at være Rummene i HAL spænder fra at være tydeligt programmerede, til de løst programmerede og u-programmerede rum. Fremtidens fælleskaber skal kunne rumme diversitet og kalder derfor på alle tre dele. Og i dag er måske i særdeleshed de uprogrammerede rum i byerne under pres; fra kommercialisering og pladsmangel.

De frit stående volumener i HAL rummer faste funktioner som omklædningsrum, depot samt en cafe orienteret mod skydebrospladsen. Langs kanten af HAL er en uprogrammeret zone, som hæver sig på et plateau over terrænet. Her flyder inde og ude sammen mellem rækkerne af skydeporte. Og her er der plads til at mødes før spillet, eller bare til at sidde og lade sine fødder dingle fra kanten, varme sig i solen og iagttage fodboldkampen på de udendørs baner på afstand. Her er der med andre ord plads til bare at være, og plads til at mennesker kan indtage kanten på deres egen måde.

0 3 I N C O N V E R S AT I O N W I T H C O N C R E T E Transformation Brøndby Strand Parkerne, Denmark 7th semester / January 2024 / 15 ECTS Context / Dwelling inbetween Group work with Trine Bak Maja Ziska / mzis@kglakademi.dk
The residents of Brøndby Strand parkerne point to the concrete, as a root to the stigma of the area. We believe that the residents’ dislike of concrete, does not in fact concern concrete as a material, but rather the way that the buildings in Brøndby Strand parkerne deal with properties such as scale, “naturalness”,
tactility,
patina
and
composition with other materials. Taking a starting point in a deep understanding of materials in the immediate surrounding; their historical, cultural, physical, aesthetic and tectonic properties, and entering into a dialogue with the existing structural concrete walls, this project investigates a new facade design as a mean to facilitate a stronger emotional attachment between the residents of Brøndby Strand and the concrete buildings they live in.

RO // House is located on the Marine Terrain in Amsterdam. It is a new centre for the infrastructure of autonomous Roboats in a previous hidden part of town. The location used to be an oasis of peace in a city otherwise buzzing with activity. How can you introduce a
new
junction
while
maintaining
the scarce quality of tranquillity
in
a metropolis like Amsterdam? RO // House suggests a design based on lines of sight and a refined balance of privacy and openness. At the same time it is designed to show the beauty in the complementarity of a sustainable supporting
construction,
construction,
climate
building
design,
and
architecture.
Early concept sketch
North facade 19
Based on the vernacular principle of circulation of air, the ventilation of RO // House in the summer season is 100 % natural and driven by the thermal draft created by the slope of the building as well as the atrium in the middle of the building. The sun panels delivering the electricity for the building are not hidden on the roof, but plays a visible role on the building’s façade while at the same time making space for a more biodiverse and cooling blue-green roof.

four designs amongst 350 by a jury from the AMS & MIT Architecture Roboat collaboration and TU Delft. 3

1. The atrium minimizes need for artificial lighting and supports the natural summer ventilation through the creation of thermal draft.
4. In the summer the ventilation is 100 % natural. In the winter mechanical in- and outlet allows a heat recovery of 90 %.
2. 58 sun panels deliver 16.000 kWh per year. Due to the variation in orientation, they deliver the energy equally distributed over the day, avoiding a midday-peak. On the inefficient sides they are covered in dummy panels of reused plastic from the oceans.
5. A ground heat exchanger delivers the heat for a low temperature floor heating.
3. The majority of the building is joint without the use of glue or “wet” montage, which makes the materials detachable and reusable.
6. Rainwater is collected and used in a grey water system, saving more than a third of the water usage. 7. With an inaccessible blue-green roof the building helps minimizing the urban heat island effect and supports the local biodiversity.

pulation pays a visit to the dead and they decipher their own names on their stone slabs: like the city of the living, this other city communicates a history of toil, anger, illusions, emotions; only here all has become necessary, divorced from chance, categorized, set in order.” Italo Calvino, Invisible Cities
Laudomia is the name of a city of living with
a
interdependent
relationship
to the equivalent city of the dead, as described in the book Invisible Cities by Italo Calvino. This design takes it starting point in the physical landscape of the beach ridge outside of the Hague as well as in the cultural landscape and the relation to the adjacent Noorthey cemetery. It is a bed and breakfast that invites to a reflective co-existence with the inevitable other part of life; namely the past, present and future of death.

Engaging in visual anthropology was for me a way to expand the media through which I could work anthropologically. My visual interest also led to me work one year in Ethnographic Exploratory (EE) at the Department of Anthropology at University of Copenhagen. EE was at that time a newly initiated forum and space where students, teachers, and researchers experimented with new forms of collaborative research, communication and teaching activities. Besides my activities in EE I was very engaged in the student association Antrofilm.
