INTRODUCTION
WHILE READING AN ARTICLE IN A NEWS APPLICATION ON THE IPAD IT TALKED ABOUT WORLD WARS , CONFLICTS AND DISTURBANCE AND THE MORE AND MORE I CHANGE MY NEWS SOURCES THE MORE AND MORE IT OCCURS TO ME.....THE NEWS KEPT ON GETTING WORSE!!
THE WORLD WE LIVE IN IS NOT EMPTY FROM PROBLEMS SOME WHICH WE ARE LIVING IN AND SOME THAT ARE STILL AHEAD OF US IN THE FUTURE. EVERY PROBLEM HAPPENS IN THIS WORLD IS FOLLOWED BY A SOME KIND OF A SOLUTION. THE SOLUTION MIGHT COME FROM ANY MAJOR AS A MEDICINE , DEVICE , MACHINE AND A BUILDING. THOSE PROBLEMS WE READ ABOUT THEM IN THE NEWSPAPERS HEADLINES AND WE CAN WATCH THE IN THE TV AND HEAR ABOUT THEM IN THE RADIO AND THATS HOW IT ALL STARTED.
BUT SOME FACTS AND EVENTS THAT HAPPENED IN THE WORLD NEEDS TO BE REMINDED OF AND QUOTES OF IMPORTANT PEOPLE WHO INFLUENCED THE WORLD NEED TO BE TAKEN IN CONSIDER.....SO NOT ONLY WE CAN LEARN BUT ALSO STUDY AND BE PREPARED.

RESEARCH: THEORY AND PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION 10
“I KNOW NOT WITH WHAT WEOPNS WWIII WILL BE FOUGHT WITH, BUT WWIV WILL BE FOUGHT WITH STICKS AND STONES!” - Albert Einstein THEN A QUESTION NEEDS TO BE ASKED :
WHAT IS OUR ROLE AS IN ARCHITECTS IF IT HAPPENS?
FOR THIS QUESTION TO BE ANSWERED IT NEEDS AN ARCHITECT TO START THE THEORY “EACH NEW SITUATION REQUIRES NEW ARCHITECTURE” - JEAN NOUVEL
NEW SITUATIONS?!
BUT WHAT ARE THESE NEW SITUATIONS? AND WHAT ARE OUR CURRENT SITUATIONS? THE WORLD WE LIVE IN IS BEING PUT TO THE TOUGHEST CHALLENGES NOT LIKE ANY TIME BEFORE IN MANY LEVELS AND MANY CATEGORIES THAT POINT FOR A NEW WORLD WAR LIKE :
1- WORLD CONFLICTS AND CHANGES 2- HUMAN ISSUES 3- ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGES 4- ECONOMICAL CHANGES 5- DISEASE SPREADING 6- RESOURCES DECREASING
THESE ARE OUR CURRENT SITUATIONS
RESEARCH: THEORY AND PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION 1- WORLD CONFLICTS AND CHANGES OPEN YOUR TV, NEWSPAPER, RADIO AND ASK YOU NEIGHBOR! YES OUR ONE AND ONLY WORLD IS FILLED WITH WARS AND CONFLICTS AND WARS COMING IN THE NEAR FUTURE....AND LIKE THE PAST OUR WORLD LIVED TWO WORLD WARS THAT LEAD TO NEARLY THE DESTRUCTION OF ALL HUMAN BEINGS.
11
RESEARCH: THEORY AND PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION 12
2- HUMAN ISSUES NOWADAYS ALL THE HUMANS AROUND THE WORLD HAVE A DIVERSE OF NEEDS NOT ONLY THAT BUT ALSO ITS DIFFERENT FROM ONE TO ANOTHER. WITH ALL THE CHANGES THE WORLD HAVE BEEN TO. IT MADE POOR PEOPLE POORER AND MADE RICH PEOPLE RICHER. SOME WHO WANT TO ACHIEVE GOALS AND SOME THEY ARE NOT ALLOWED TO DREAM.
RESEARCH: THEORY AND PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION 3- ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGES OUR CLIMATIC SYSTEMS IS IN RAPID CHANGE FROM THE HUMAN MISTAKES AND ALL THE POLLUTION FACTORS THAT THE WORLD IS SUFFERING. MOTHER NATURE TAKES IN CHARGE WITH ITS RESPONSE TO US WITH EARTHQUAKS, HURRICANS, TSUNAMIS AND SAND AND SNOW STORMS.
13
RESEARCH: THEORY AND PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION 14
4- ECONOMICAL CHANGES MONEY MAKES THE WORLD GO ROUND AND MONEY TALKS WHEN IT COMES TO MAKE A DECISION THAT IS CRITICAL AND CONCERNS LOTS OF PEOPLE. AS THE NUMBERS GO UP OR DROP DOWN SO ARE MILLION OF PEOPLE JOBS AND MONEY WITH THE MIDDLE CLASS THAT’S DISAPPEARING DAY BY DAY.
RESEARCH: THEORY AND PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION 5- DISEASE SPREADING THE HYGIENE AND HEALTH IS A MAJOR CONCERN FOR THE WHOLE COUNTRIES ALL OVER THE WORLD. VIRUSES AND DIESEASES ARE EVOLVING EVERYDAY TAKING LOTS OF LIVES WITH THEM. AND NOT ALL THE PEOPLE HAVE THE CAPABILITY TO AFFORD THE VACCINES.
15
RESEARCH: THEORY AND PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION 16
6- RESOURCES DECREASING PLANT EARTH HAS MANY VARIATIONS OF NATURAL RECOURSES THAT ARE GRADUALLY DECREASING AND SOMEDAY WILL FINISH AND VANISH. THOSE RESOURCES NOT ONLY ARE IMPORTANT TO US AS HUMANS BUT ALSO FOR ALL LIFE BEINGS TO KEEP ON LIVING THIS ONLY LIFE.
RESEARCH: THEORY AND PROBLEM IDENTIFICATION 17
SO THOSE ARE OUR CURRENT SITUATIONS!!
WITH ALL IS ON THE CURRENT WORLD TABLE ..... OUR FUTURE LOOKS VERY DISTURBING!! IS OUR TOMORROW GOING TO BE BETTER THAN OUR YESTERDAY? AND WHAT IF IT WASN’T?
WHAT IF A WORLD WAR III HAPPENED ?! And there many questions came along the primary question like :
WILL IT HAPPEN? CAN THE ENVIRONMENT TAKE MORE? WHERE WILL IT HAPPEN? BETWEEN
WHO AND WHO?
WHAT WILL HAPPEN AFTER THE WAR?
WILL WE SURVIVE? WHAT WILL BE DE-
STROYED WHAT WILL HAPPEN AFTER THE WAR? WILL IT BE AS THE SAME AS THE
BEFORE WORLD WARS? HOW WILL THE PEOPLE BEHAVE AFTER IT?
IS THE SCIENCE READY FOR IT? ARE
WE GOING TO REBUILD THE CITIES OR
START FRESH NEW CIT IES?
AND MORE AND MORE QUESTIONS YET TO BE ANSWERED...
AND AT LEAST WE SHOULD BE PREPARED BUT HOW AND WITH WHAT?

PROJECT
FOR EVERY EVENT BAD OR GOOD HAPPENED AND STILL HAPPENING IN THE WORLD....ARCHITECTURE WAS THERE. ARCHITECTURE WITH ITS ALL FEATURES AND OTHER ALIGNED MAJORS LIKE URBAN PLANNING, URBAN DESIGN, LANDSCAPE URBANISM,
20
LANDSCAPE, INTERIOR DESIGN, ETC...ALL THOSE CAN BE ADAPTED WITH TIME AND MANIPULATED WITH TO TAKE THE FORM IT NEEDS. ARCHITECTURE WITH ALL ITS CURRENT SCHOOLS AND UPCOMING CAME TO PLEASE SOMETHING MISSING AND FULFILL HUMANS NEEDS. AS AN ARCHITECTURE STUDENT THROUGH MY STUDIES I HAVE LEARNED THAT OUR ROLE AS AN ARCHITECTS GOES BEYOND OUR TIME.....WE CAN CREATE AND IMAGINE THE FUTURE THAT WE CAN SEE THROUGH THE WORLDS CURRENT EVENT, CRISES AND THOSE WHO PREDICT WHAT’S GOING TO HAPPEN....
PROJECT “AS AN ARCHITECT YOU DESIGN FOR THE PRESENT, WITH AN AWARENESS OF THE PAST, FOR A FUTURE WHICH IS ESSENTIALLY UNKNOWN.” - ARCHITECT NORMAN FOSTER
I WANT TO DESIGN A PROTOTYPE HABITAT THAT IS A PLAN B FOR US HUMANS WHEN OUR AIR, WATER, SUN, SOIL AND OTHER LIFE ELEMENTS ARE ENDANGERED FROM A CONFLICT OR AN NUCLEAR WAR!! LIKE WWI AND WWII ARCHITECTS CAME AND REBUILT CITIES AND HOUSES AND MADE NEW ONES BUT NOT LIKE THE SAME AS BEFORE BUT WITH NEW TECHNOLOGIES AND NEW THEORIES THAT HELPED. SOME EARLY DESIGN QUESTIONS WHAT’S THE PROJECT TIME LINE? AND WHERE IS THE SITE GOING TO BE? AND IS THERE ANY SIMILAR PROJECTS? AND WHICH THEORIES AND DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS WILL BE IMPLEMENTED FOR THAT KIND OF PROJECT?
21
REFERENCES
WE ARCHITECTS LEARN FROM THE WORKS AND PROJECTS THAT HAPPENED IN THE PAST YEARS. EVEN IF THOSE PROJECTS WERE NOT YET DONE OR STILL IN THE BLUE PRINT FORM. IN THE PAST
22
TIME MANY INDIVIDUALS AND GROUPS OF ARCHITECTS CAME AND MADE SOME ASSUMPTIONS FROM THEIR IMAGINATIONS OF WHAT AND WHICH SHAPE AND HOW WILL OUR BUILDINGS WILL LOOK LIKE. THESE MENTIONS ARE NOT ONLY HONORABLY BUT THEY ARE MENTIONED TO PROVE THAT WE CAN DESIGN AND IMAGINE EVEN IF WHAT WE ARE PROVOKING IS WAY OF OUR TIME. THOSE REFERENCES ARE DIFFERENT FROM ONE AND ANOTHER WHEN IT COMES OF THE ERA AND TIME THAT IT WAS INTRODUCED.

IN EVERY PERIOD OF TIME THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO ARE ARTISTS THEY IMAGINE THE FUTURE AND WHAT ITS GOING TO BE LIKE. THESE ILLUSTRATIONS MIGHT TAKE A 100 YEARS OR MORE IN THE FUTURE.

26
NOWADAYS CINEMA AND VIDEO GAMES SIMULATE A WORLD WE MIGHT NOT BE LIVING IN AND MIGHT HAVE TO WAIT AGES TO LIVE IN WHAT THOSE MOVIES AND GAMES PERIODS ARE. GAME DEVELOPERS AND GRAPHIC ARTISTS HELPED WHAT WAS IMPOSSIBLE TO BECOME REAL.
CHALLENGES AND GOALS
FOR EVERY PROJECT THERE ARE SOME SERIOUS CHALLENGES THAT NEEDS TO BE OVERCOME TO ACHIEVE A CERTAIN GOAL THAT CAN SATISFY EVERYONE BUT FIRST THE CHALLENGES NEED TO BE KNOWN TO US SO WE CAN OVERCOME THEM AND THE CHALLENGES ARE :
1- TIME LINE OF THE PROJECT 2- HUMAN BEHAVIOR AFTER A CATASTROPHE 3- WHAT DO WE KNOW AND DON’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
27
CHALLENGES AND GOALS TIME LINE OF THE PROJECT WHEN WE ARE TALKING ABOUT TIME ITS REALLY GOOD TO REMEMBER THE SIMILAR EVENTS THAT HAPPENED BEFORE IN THE SAME PERIOD OF TIME WHERE THE ARCHITECTURAL MOVEMENT STARTED TO FIX WHAT WARS HAVE DONE TO THE WORLD AND 28
WHAT IT REFLECTED ON PEOPLES LIFE. AFTER WORLD WAR I, PIONEERING MODERNIST ARCHITECTS SOUGHT TO DEVELOP A COMPLETELY NEW STYLE APPROPRIATE FOR A NEW POST-WAR SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC ORDER, FOCUSED ON MEETING THE NEEDS OF THE MIDDLE AND WORKING CLASSES. THEY REJECTED THE ARCHITECTURAL PRACTICE OF THE ACADEMIC REFINEMENT OF HISTORICAL STYLES WHICH SERVED THE RAPIDLY DECLINING ARISTOCRATIC ORDER. FALLINGWATER BY FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT. THE APPROACH OF THE MODERNIST ARCHITECTS WAS TO REDUCE BUILDINGS TO PURE FORMS, REMOVING HISTORICAL REFERENCES AND ORNAMENT IN FAVOR OF FUNCTIONALIST DETAILS. BUILDINGS THAT DISPLAYED THEIR CONSTRUCTION AND STRUCTURE, EXPOSING STEEL BEAMS AND CONCRETE SURFACES INSTEAD OF HIDING THEM BEHIND TRADITIONAL FORMS, WERE SEEN AS BEAUTIFUL IN THEIR OWN RIGHT. ARCHITECTS SUCH AS MIES VAN DER ROHE WORKED TO CREATE BEAUTY BASED ON THE INHERENT QUALITIES OF BUILDING MATERIALS AND MODERN CONSTRUCTION TECHNIQUES, TRADING TRADITIONAL HISTORIC FORMS FOR SIMPLIFIED GEOMETRIC FORMS, CELEBRATING THE NEW MEANS AND METHODS MADE POSSIBLE BY THE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION.

CHALLENGES AND GOALS TIME LINE OF THE PROJECT
AFTER WORLD WAR II, BIG INDUSTRY TURNED TO MODERN ARCHITECTS FOR DISTINCTIVE EMBLEMS OF PRESTIGE. THE CONNECTICUT GENERAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY HIRED ONE 30
OF THE LARGEST MODERN FIRMS, SKIDMORE, OWINGS & MERRILL, TO DESIGN THEIR NEW DECENTRALIZED HEADQUARTERS OUTSIDE HARTFORD, CONNECTICUT (1955–57). LEVER BROTHERS TURNED TO THE SAME FIRM FOR NEW YORK CITY’S LEVER HOUSE (1952), IN WHICH THE PARKLIKE PLAZA, GLASS-CURTAIN WALLS, AND THIN ALUMINUM MULLIONS REALIZED THE DREAMS OF MIES AND OTHERS IN THE 1920S OF FREESTANDING CRYSTALLINE SHAFTS. DESIGNED BY ELIEL SAARINEN’S SON EERO, THE GENERAL MOTORS TECHNICAL CENTER (1948–56) AT WARREN, MICHIGAN, WAS COMPARED WITH VERSAILLES IN ITS EXTENT, GRANDEUR, AND RIGOROUS CONFORMITY TO AN AUSTERE, GEOMETRIC AESTHETIC OF MIESIAN FORMS. THE HARRISON AND ABRAMOVITZ’S TOWER FOR THE ALUMINUM COMPANY OF AMERICA AT PITTSBURGH (1954) ADVERTISED ITS OWN PRODUCT, AS DID SKIDMORE, OWINGS & MERRILL’S INLAND STEEL BUILDING AT CHICAGO (1955–57). PERHAPS THE MOST CHASTE OF ALL WAS THE SEAGRAM BUILDING (1954–58) AT NEW YORK CITY, DESIGNED BY MIES AND PHILIP JOHNSON. WRIGHT ALONE AVOIDED THE RECTILINEAR GEOMETRY OF THESE OFFICE BUILDINGS. IN 1955 HE SAW HIS PRICE TOWER RISE AT BARTLESVILLE, OKLAHOMA, A RICHLY FACETED, CONCRETE AND COPPER FULFILLMENT OF THE ST. MARK’S TOWER HE HAD DESIGNED MORE THAN 25 YEARS EARLIER.
CHALLENGES AND GOALS ABOUT 1952 THERE WAS A SIGNIFICANT SHIFT WITHIN MODERNISM FROM WHAT HAD COME TO BE CALLED FUNCTIONALISM, OR THE INTERNATIONAL STYLE, TOWARD A MONUMENTAL FORMALISM. THERE WAS INCREASING INTEREST IN HIGHLY SCULPTURAL MASSES AND SPACES, AS WELL AS IN THE DECORATIVE QUALITIES OF DIVERSE BUILDING MATERIALS AND EXPOSED STRUCTURAL SYSTEMS. WRIGHT’S GUGGENHEIM MUSEUM IS A MANIFESTATION OF THIS AESTHETIC. THOSE WHO HAD FOCUSED THEIR ATTENTION ON THE RECTILINEAR PORTIONS OF LE CORBUSIER’S SAVOYE HOUSE AND UNITÉ D’HABITATION APARTMENTS AT MARSEILLE (1946–52), , TENDED TO IGNORE THE PLASTIC SCULPTURE ON THE ROOFS OF THOSE BUILDINGS; TO SUCH PEOPLE, LE CORBUSIER’S HIGHLY INDIVIDUAL BUILDINGS AT CHANDIGARH, INDIA (BEGUN 1950), AND THE CAVERNOUS SPACE IN THE LYRICAL CHURCH OF NOTRE-DAME-DU-HAUT (1950–55) AT RONCHAMP, FRANCE, SEEMED TO BE EXAMPLES OF PERSONAL WHIMSY. PIER LUIGI NERVI IN ITALY GAVE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY TO THE COMPLEX CURVES AND GEOMETRY OF REINFORCED-CONCRETE STRUCTURES, SUCH AS THE ORBETELLO AIRCRAFT HANGAR (BEGUN 1938) AND TURIN’S EXPOSITION HALL (1948–50). THE SPANIARD EDUARDO TORROJA, HIS PUPIL FELIX CANDELA, AND THE AMERICAN FREDERICK SEVERUD FOLLOWED HIS LEAD. ESSENTIALLY, EACH ATTEMPTED TO CREATE AN UMBRELLA ROOF THE INTERIOR SPACE OF WHICH COULD BE SUBDIVIDED AS REQUIRED, SUCH AS TORROJA’S GRANDSTAND FOR THE ZARZUELA RACETRACK IN MADRID (1935).

CHALLENGES AND GOALS
TIME LINE OF THE PROJECT
THIS TIME LINE SHOW WHEN THIS PROJECT CAN BE BUILT AND IT SHOWED THE PAST WARS AND ONGOING CONFLICTS AT THIS TIME OF THE YEAR. AND THEY ARE ALL RELATED TO ALL PAST PAGES FROM THE “RESEARCH AND THEORY” TO THE PROJECT DESCRIPTION. THIS PROJECT IS A EXPERIMENT AND A SIMULATION OF A DISTURBED SIDE OF OUR FUTURE THAT CAN MAKE US NOT ONLY PREPARED BUT ALSO CAN OPEN OUR EYES OF WHAT WE WILL THROW AWAY FROM OUR HANDS IF ONLY A NUCLEAR WAR HAPPENED AND DESTROYED THE WHOLE WORLD IN SECONDS TAKING IN CONSIDER THE MAJOR DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE PAST WORLD WARS AND THE THIRD BECAUSE NOW MORE COUNTRIES HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON NOT ONLY AS WEAPON BUT ALSO A NUCLEAR PLANT.
33
CHALLENGES AND GOALS HUMAN BEHAVIOR AFTER A CATASTROPHE WHEN HUMANS LIVES ARE ENDANGERED EVERY WAY THEY ACT AND HOW THEY DEAL WITH IMMEDIATELY CHANGES. SOCIAL AND RELIGIOUS MORALS STOP TO EXIST WHEN THEY 34
ARE IN A DIFFICULT TIME. THEY ACT BARBARICALLY NOT CARING ABOUT OTHER HUMAN BEINGS. THATS WHY THERE NEED TO BE A PREPLANNED STUDY OF WHAT CAN AND WILL HAPPEN AND WHAT WILL HUMANS BE MISSING AND HOW CAN WE MAKE UP IT FOR THEM.
CHALLENGES AND GOALS
HUMAN BEHAVIOR AFTER A CATASTROPHE
PEOPLE INTERACT WITH THEIR ENVIRONMENTS YOU CAN SEE THE HARSH AND THE EASY GOING PEOPLE AS THEY TAKE MORE FROM THEIR ENVIRONMENT AND ADAPT TO IT AND WHEN ANYONE CROSSES TO AN ENVIRONMENT AND MEETS ITS PEOPLE IT SHOWS FROM HOW THEY ACT AND HOW THEY EVEN LOOK LIKE TO OTHERS AND HOW THEY DRESS AND GREET NEW PEOPLE.
35
CHALLENGES AND GOALS HUMAN BEHAVIOR AFTER A CATASTROPHE FOR A HABITAT WITH A CERTAIN NUMBER OF PEOPLE LIVING IN WITH EACH OTHERS THE GOAL IS TO MAKE THE INNER LIFE STYLE IN THIS HABITAT LIKE ANY SOCIAL STUDY HAPPING IN A 36
NEIGHBORHOOD OR A CITY. WITH ALL THE TRANSMISSION STAGES THAT HAS TO TAKE PART AND PERIOD OF TIME TO BUILD THE PEOPLE’S TRUST. IT HAVE TO BE CLEAR THAT IT CAN EASILY BROKEN AND HARD TO RE-BUILD IT AGAIN. EACH ONE OF US HAS A SURVIVAL INSTINCT THAT HELPS US TO OVER COME EXTREME SITUATIONS BUT IF IT CAN BE BUILT AND TRAINED IT CAN TURN TO A SUPERIOR POWER TO ACHIEVE THE TOUGHEST GOALS THAT MANKIND NEVER THOUGHT TO OVER COME. THATS WHY EVERYONE IN A CITY OR A NEIGHBORHOOD NEEDS TO PUT INTO THE TABLE SOMETHING TO BENIFIT THE OTHER. NOT ONLY THAT BUT TO TAKE CARE OF EACHOTHERS AND NOT TO FORGET THAT WE ARE HUMANS FROM THE FIRST PLACE AND EVERYTING BAD HAPPENED AND MEIGHT HAPPEN IS A MANMADE.

CASE STUDIES
AS AN ARCHITECTURE STUDENTS AND WHAT HAVE WE LEARN IN THE PAST 5 YEARS OF FINDING THE INFORMATION WE NEED AND DOING OUR RESEARCH WHEN IT COMES TO DO A PROJECT WE NEED TO FIND A SIMILAR PROJECT THAT CAN HELP US IN MANY LEVELS OF ANALYSIS AND FICTIONAL ZONING AND DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS SO THAT IT CAN NEARLY BE IMPLEMENTED IN OUR
44
PROJECT BUT SOMETIMES IN CERTAIN TYPES OF PROJECT ITS HARD TO FIND A SIMILAR PROJECTS OR ITS TOO FICTIONAL AND YOUR TRYING YOUR BEST TO MAKE IT REALISTIC BUT YOU END UP NOT FINDING THE SAME PROJECT BUT SOME TRIALS OF PROJECT OR A PROJECTS OF WHAT WE CAN SAY “PARTS OF WHAT WE NEED” TO ANALYSIS AND HELP US EVEN IF ITS IN A DIFFERENT SITUATIONS SAYING THAT WE NEED TO SEE WHATS NOW ARCHITECTURE IS OFFERING AND WHAT DID IT OFFER FOR WHAT IS BEING PROVOKED IN THE PAST AND WHAT STUDENTS AND OTHER THESIS ARE TALKING ABOUT EVEN IF ITS IN OTHER PLANTS!! BUT WITH THE SAME SURVIVAL CONDITIONS AND SAME SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY THAT CAN BE USED IN MY PROJECT.
CASE STUDIES : DAYS IN THE PAST
45
UNFORTUNATELY SOME TAKE THE IDEA OF THAT AM DESIGNING FALLOUT SHELTERS AND WAR BUNKERS WHEN WHAT AM DESIGNING IS AFTER A NUCLEAR WAR OR A RADIATION INFILTRATION BUT ITS IMPORTANT FOR ME TO STUDY THOSE PROJECTS FOR THE SAKE OF TECHNOLOGY AND SYSTEMS.
CASE STUDIES : FIRST CASE STUDY RIYADH RESIDENTIAL COMPLEX ARCHITECTS: AQSO ARQUITECTOS LOCATION: CASABLANCA, MOROCCO SITE AREA: 9814 SQM GROUND FLOOR AREA: 49,154 SQM (ABOUT ANFA WAS THE ANCIENT NAME OF CASABLANCA CITY AND NOW IS A DIS46
TRICT OF CASABLANCA, IN THE GRAND CASABLANCA REGION OF MOROCCO AND IT’S THE OLDEST PART OF THE CITY).
THE URBAN CONTEXT OF ANFA ANFA WAS BUILT BY BERBERS, THE CITY USED TO BE A MILITARY FORTIFICATIONS CITY, ITS HOUSES DESIGNED TO BE CLOSED FROM OUTSIDE, NOT SHOWING THEIR CHARM. NARROW ALLEYWAYS LEADING TO THE HOUSES, AND ENTRANCE DOORS ARE UNIMPORTANT. BEHIND DOORS, YOU FIND A PATIO PLANTED WITH TREES, ORGANIZED AROUND A FOUNTAIN. THE CITY HAS INFLUENCED BY THE ISLAMIC ANDALUSIA ARCHITECTURE AND URBAN CONTEXT , THE ANDALUSIA PATIO IS SO CLEAR IN THE CITY HOUSES
Andalusia House
CASE STUDIES : FIRST CASE STUDY SO, HOW DID THEY THINK ABOUT IT ? A COMPOUND OF RESIDENTIAL UNITS, THAT ADAPTS TO THE DIFFERENT CONDITIONS OF THE SITE TO COMBINE A LOCAL AND URBAN APPEARANCE. CONCEPT THE SCHEME IS SOLVED CONCEPTUALLY AS A CONTINUOUS BLOCK ALIGNED TO THE SURROUNDING STREETS AND WRAPPING AROUND TWO BIG ‘ RIADS ’. 47
IN THIS WAY THE BUILDING GROWS TO OFFER AN URBAN CHARACTER TOWARDS THE BOULEVARD AND REDUCES ITS SCALE TO THE OPPOSITE SIDE.
CASE STUDIES : FIRST CASE STUDY RIADS ?
A RIAD IS A TRADITIONAL MOROCCAN PALACE COMPRISING A GRAND SET OF LIVING QUARTERS AROUND A CENTRAL COURTYARD, (RIAD IS TAKEN FROM THE ARABIAN TERM FOR GARDEN). THERE ARE TWO REASONS FOR THE INWARD-FOCUSED LAOUT: 1-TO GIVE THE FAMILY PRIVACY AND PROTECTION FROM MOROCCAN WEATHER. 2-THE CENTRAL GARDEN BENEFITS FROM THE SHADE OF THE
48
SURROUNDING WALLS, KEEPING THE INSIDE COOL. THICK WALLS MADE FROM SAND, LIME AND EGG WHITE, TO SEPARATE BETWEEN THE HOME AND THE NOISE OF MEDINA, OR THE OLD TOWN. ISLAMIC ARCHITECTURAL STYLE ELEGANT DECORATED TILES ATRIUM. WHILE A RIAD MAY NOT LOOK SPECIAL FROM THE OUTSIDE, IT IS THE ARCHITECTURE OF THE INSIDE THAT MAKES IT A MAGICAL MOROCCAN ENCOUNTER.
CASE STUDIES : FIRST CASE STUDY DESIGN PROCESS
A CONTINUOUS BLOCK EXTENDS AROUND TWO SEMIPUBLIC COURTYARDS, INFLUENCED BY THE ANCIENT HISTORY OF THE REGION AND THE ANDALUSIA CULTURE.
DIFFERENT RESIDENTIAL TYPOLOGIES RANGING FROM 70 TO 160 SQM

CASE STUDIES : FIRST CASE STUDY THE LOCAL SPIRIT HAS BEEN USED SO CLEARLY WHILE DESIGNING THE COMPOUND, -USING THE COURTYARDS. -FACADES DESIGN. -VARIETY OF RESIDENTIAL UNITS DESIGN. THE BUILDING FAÇADE HAS TWO DIFFERENT STRATEGIES: THE EXTERIOR SKIN FACING THE MOST PUBLIC CONTEXT WITH FORMAL ELEMENTS. THE INTERIOR SKIN FACING THE PRIVATE COURTYARDS WITH FLAT AND LOCAL DESIGN.
EXTERIOR FAÇADE FACING THE MOST PUBLIC CONTEXT WITH FORMAL ELEMENTS.
INTERIOR FAÇADE FACING THE PRIVATE COURTYARDS WITH FLAT AND LOCAL DESIGN. IS MADE BY LONG BALCONIES ENCLOSED BY SLIDING LATTICEWORK PANELS A WHITE AND PLAIN SURFACE ONLY INTERRUPTED BY LONG WINDOWS AND BIG PROTRUDING BALCONIES
51
CASE STUDIES : SECOND CASE STUDY MASDAR CITY ITS REALLY IMPORTANT FOR WHO IS DESIGNING A RESIDINTIAL PROJECT OR A COMPLEX TO STUDY THE NEWEST PROJECT WHICH IS ONGOING TO UNDERSTAND WHAT KIND OF THINKING IS THE ARCHITECT IS BRING ON THE TABLE AND WHERE IS THE TECHNOLOGY TOOK US TO ACHIVE IN OUR MAJOR EVEN IF ITS IN THIS PROJECT IS ONE OF A KIND PROJECT WEN IT COMES TO URBAN PLANNING, DESIGN LOCATION : ABU DHABI, UAE AND ARCHITECTURE THIS TOTAL AREA : 6.4 KM2 POPULATION : 40,000 INHABITANTS SUSTAINABLE CITY PROVIDES THE HIGHEST QUALITY OF 50,000 VISITORS LIFE WITH THE LOWEST EN90,000 TOTAL VIRONMENTAL EFFECTS AND DENSITY : 140.7 PPL/HECTARE FULLY RENEWABLE ENERGY.

CASE STUDIES : CONCLUSION CONCLUSION EACH CASE STUDY HAS ITS OWN CONCLUSION BUT ITS NOT ABOUT WHAT THE CASE HAS BUT ITS MORE OF WHAT THESE CASES OFFER FOR MY OWN PROJECT. THATS WHY THERE IS AN REGULAR CONCLUSION FOR THE FIRST PART OF WHAT THE PROJECT TITLE REPRESENTS AND A SECOND PART OF THE TITLE WHICH REPRESENTS A SPECIAL KIND OF CONDITIONS THAT CAN FACE US ARCHITECTS IN THE FUTURE. IN THE END I AM DESIGNING A RESIDENTIAL PROJECT THAT NEEDS 82
TO HAVE CASE STUDY OF ISSUES THAT FACES HOUSING PROBLEMS LIKE SOCIAL, DESIGN, VENTILATION PROBLEMS AND OTHER PROBLEMS .
REGALER CONCLUSION
1- THE BENEFITS OF DESIGNING HOUSES TO BE AROUND A SEMI PUBLIC COURTYARD, CREATES PRIVACY FOR THE PROJECT ALSO FOR FAMILIES AND THEIR KIDS, THIS CONCEPT OFFERS A CLEAN AND VENTILATED ENVIRONMENT AS IT ALSO REDUCES THE STREETS AND SURROUNDINGS NOISE. 2- DIFFERENT LEVELS OF FAÇADE, ALLOWS THE APARTMENTS TO HAVE MORE VIEWS OPPORTUNITIES. 3- USING THE ROOFS AS GREEN TERRACES. 4- EXTERIOR FACADES SHOULD BE WELL DESIGNED REFLECTING THE BEAUTY OF THE INSIDE. 5- THE METAPHOR OF SPECIFIC ELEMENTS OR A SPECIFIC ARCHITECTURAL PATTERN TO GIVE THE PROJECT A SPECIAL CHARACTER IS A GOOD CONCEPT.
CASE STUDIES : CONCLUSION CONCLUSION WITH NEW SITUATIONS THIS CONCLUSION TALKS ABOUT THE SECOND PART OFT HE PROJECT TITLE OF HOW MIGHT BE SIMILAR PROJECTS DEALT WITH THE CHALLENGES TO FACE OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGES AND THE ODD ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS THAT HUMANS ARE NOT FAMILIAR OF AND WHAT ARE THE NEW FUNCTIONS AND THE WAYS TO FACE THE CHALLENGES IF THEY ARE RADIATION, FUNCTIONS, SOCIAL, CLIMATIC, ECONOMICAL AND EVEN ARCHITECTURAL WHEN ITS COMES TO FORMATION OF THE DESIGN. 83
1- TECHNOLOGY AND SCIENCE ARE THE MAIN COMPONANTS OF THE FUTURISTIC NEW HABITAT. 2- WHERE NEW SITUATIONS HAPPEN COMES A NEW KIND OF ARCHITECTURE. 3- IN NEW CONDITIONS THAT AS HUMANS WE ARE NOT FAMILIAR WITH WE NEED TO BE PREPARED FOR IT NOT TO WAIT FOR IT. 4- NEW TYPES OF FUNCTIONS DEPENDS ON THE TYPE OF THE CONDITIONS THAT THE PROJECT IS DEALING WITH. 5- TO ACHIVE A SUCSSEFUL PROJECT IT HAS TO TAKE DIFFERENT PHASES.

SITE SELECTION
04
CRITERIA, ANALYSIS AND CONCLUSION 85
SITE SELECTION
SITE SELECTION : CRITERIA THE SITE SELECTION FOR MY PROJECT IS NOT AN ISSUE FOR DEBATE IF ITS DESTRUCTION OR TRYING TO OFFER THE SUITABLE HOME TO A FAMILY AGAINST THE RADIO ACTIVE CONDITIONS ITS HARD TO DESIGN IN CONSIDERATION OF CONTEXT BECAUSE NOT THE SURROUNDINGS THAT DEFINE THE PROJECT BUT ITS THE ODD ENVIRONMENT THE HUMAN CAN’T LIVE AROUND REALLY MATTERS AND HOW TO DEAL WITH IT FROM ENTRANCES AND ZONING AND TECHNOLOGY. THATS WHY THERE ARE TWO KIND OF SITE ANALYSIS FOR MY PROJECT FIRST ONE IS A NORMAL SITE ANALYSIS AND THE SECOND ONE IS A CONTAMINATED SITE TO WORK WITH. LIKE I SAID THE SITE IS NOT A MATTER OF CONCERN FOR MY PROJECT BECAUSE ANY SITE WITH THOSE CONDITIONS ON EARTH CAN WORK BUT THE CONDITIONS MAKE THE SITE A NOT LIVABLE SITE FOR HUMANS. THE SITE QUALITIES ARE MORE LIKE
86
SITE FROM OUT OF SPACE AND LIKE BUILDING ON OTHER PLANETS E.G.(MOON AND MARS) WHERE IN MY PROVOKED SCENARIOS IN THE SITE WE CANT LIVE IN. SO WHAT DOES ALL THAT MEAN?! IT MEANS THERE IS GOING TO BE A SITE BUT ITS MORE TO SIMULATE HOW THE PROJECT WILL DEAL WITH THE CONDITIONS. WE BY OUR 3D PROGRAM SIMULATERS TEND TO BRING A BETTER PICTURE TO THE PEOPLE SO THEY CAN SEE A BETTER PICTURE SAME GOES FOR THIS PROJECT SITE. ITS A SIMULATION SITE THAT A PROJECT IS GOING TO BE BUILT ON THAT SITE TO SEE WHATS GOING TO HAPPEN AND HOW IT WILL DEAL WITH ALL THE CONDITONS THAT HAVE BEEN SAID IN THE LAST CHAPTERS.
SITE SELECTION : CRITERIA
87
THE SITE CAN BE IN ANY CONTINENT, COUNTRY OR LOCATION IN THE WORLD SO FIGURING WHERE IS NOT A PROBLEM THE DEPARTMENT RULES AND FAVORS THAT MY SITE IS BETTER BE IN THE COUNTRY WHERE MY UNIVERSITY IS LOCATED SO IT CAN HAVE A FAMILIAR SITE ANALYSIS AND CAN BE DISCUSSED BETTER WITH THE JURORS.
SITE ANALYSIS : NORMAL ANALYSIS LOCATION ANDACCESSIBILITY
THE SITE IS LOCATED IN WADI RUM AND AN EMPTY SITE WAS CHOSEN 88
TO SIMULATE THE CONDITIONS THAT WAS PROVOKED TO MAKE THE SCENARIO MORE IMAGINABLE FOR THE READER ITS EASY TO START WITH SOMETHING WE KNOW AND THEN SOMETHING WE ARE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT.

SPACE PROGRAM HOW TO START IT ALL?!
LIKE ANY PROJECT IT NEEDS TO BE SEEN IN NUMBERS AS AN ARCHITECT YOU DESIGN SPACES WHICH HAVE AREAS EVEN IF IT IS URBAN SCALE IT SHOULD ALSO HAVE NUMBERS. WHILE MY PROJECT IS COMMONLY KNOWN BY A “HOUSING PROJECT” IT SHOULD HAVE THE SAME TYPE OF CALCULATIONS TO DESIGN. BUT FOR MY SITUATION I NEEDED TO THINK BIG! AND START TO MAKE EVERYTHING WITH THE STUDIES THAT I HAVE DONE TO SEE HOW WILL MY PROJECT WORK. HERE ARE SOME OF WHAT I AM GOING TO SHOW : 1- THE SETTLERS AND THE PHILOSOPHY OF A UNITED COMMUNITY. 2- THE ZONES OF A LARGE FUTURE SETTLEMENT AND WHAT AM I GOING TO FOCUS ON. 3- A PROGRAM OF THE LARGER SCALED ZONES. 4- THE HOUSING MODULE TYPES AND AREAS. 5- THE HOUSING ZONING ON THE SITE. 6- THE MODULE OF DESIGN CALCULATIONS AND STANDARDS. ALL THE DETERMINED ZONES AND THE SPACE PROGRAM CALCU104
LATIONS WERE GATHERED FROM THE CASE STUDIES AND THE STANDARD BOOKS. BUT THERE ARE SOME SPACES WHICH COULDN’T BE FOUND IN THE STANDARD BOOKS WERE TAKEN FROM THE CASES AND FOR THE HOUSING UNITS A CALCULATIONS WERE MADE TO CONFIGURE THE SPACE AREA TO FIND THE TOTAL BUILT UP AREA SO I CAN START TRANSFORM THE ZONES TO SPACES AND THEN TAKE A SAMPLE OF THE HABITAT AND MAKE A MICRO ZONING AND SPACE PROGRAM AND ZONING FOR THE SAMPLE OF THE HABITAT.
SPACE PROGRAM FIRST : THE SETTLERS FAMILY SHALL PLAY A BIG ROLE IN MAKING THIS PROJECT MANAGE THE TIME AND THE CHALLENGES THAT FACE THIS SURVIVAL COMMUNITY. THE WORKS IN THE SETTLEMENT IS NOT ONLY FOR MEN BUT ALSO WOMEN ARE EQUAL WITH MEN IN THE JOBS AND

THIRD : LARGE SCALE PROGRAM AND SUB ZONING A BRIEF THAT SHOWS THE ZONES AND WHAT DOES THEY CONTAIN OF SUB FUNCTIONS AND BUILDINGS SO THE SETTLEMENT SHOW THAT IT DOESN’T WORK AS ONLY RESIDENTIAL BUT ALSO AS A LARGE SCALED COMMUNITY FOR THE CAUSE OF SURVIVAL IT NEEDS THE SUB ZONES SO THE SETTLEMENT CAN WORK AS A SELF EFFICIENT COMMUNITY.
107
SPACE PROGRAM FOURTH : HOUSING TYPES AND AREAS THE TOTAL SITE AREA IS APPROXIMATELY 65 DUNAM WHERE WE WILL USE APPROXIMATELY THE HALF OF THE SITE AS A BUILT UP AREA LETS SAY 30,000 M2 FOR THE HOUSING (RESIDENTIAL) WHICH IS THE BIGGER AREA .

DESIGN REQUIREMENTS WHAT DO I DO WITH RADIATION? FOR EACH UNIQUE STRUCTURE IT HAS ITS OWN QUALITIES AND THOSE QUALITIES COME FROM THE BEFORE EXPERIENCED STRUCTURES AND CASE STUDIES BEFORE. FOR MY PROJECT “MATERIAL, CONSTRUCTION METHODS AND FORMATION” DO MATTER FOR ME AND HOW THOSE CASES AND TECHNOLOGIES HAVE CONCORD THE DIFFICULTIES THAT CAN BE IMPLEMENTED IN MY PROJECT.
THERE ARE SOME DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS BY : 1- TECHNOLOGY 2- SCIENCE OF MATERIALS 3- CONSTRUCTION METHODS AND FORM STUDY 4- HUMANS OWN PROTECTION BIG PART OF FINDING A WAY FOR DESIGNING THE PROJECT IS STUDYING THE CASE STUDIES AND FOR MY PROJECT USING ALL WHATS RELATED TO THE FUTURE OF SCIENCE CAN HELP ME BUT WE NEED TO UNDERSTAND WHATS THE FUTURE OF SCIENCE AND WHERE DO WE STAND RIGHT NOW. IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES UNFORTUNATELY ARCHITECTS ARE NOT THAT ACTIVE ENOUGH TO EXPLORE THE POSSIBILITIES OF DEVELOPING NEW SUSTAINABLE ARCHITECTURE BASED ON THE LOCAL CONTEXT AND APPLICATIONS OF NEW TECHNOLOGY. FINALLY THE STRONG ENGAGEMENT TO TRADITIONAL BUILDING INDUSTRY DUE TO COSTS CONSTRAINS, OR TO TAKE THE RISK OF PROBATION THE NEW MATERIAL OR TECHNOLOGY AGAINST NORMAL TEST OF CLIENT.
111
DESIGN REQUIREMENTS TECHNOLOGY ITS QUITE SIMPLE TO START THIS TOPIC WITH THE MOST RESEARCHED SUBJECT IN THE SCIENCE RESEARCH FIELD WHICH IS BY FAR NANOTECHNOLOGY WHICH IS APPROXIMATELY THE FUTURE OF EVERYTHING NOWADAYS. ABSTRACT NANOTECHNOLOGY IS THE ART OF NEW SOPHISTICATED TECHNOLOGICAL PROCESS, WHICH BASED ON USING OF VERY SMALL PARTICLES OF MATERIAL EITHER BY THEMSELVES OR BY THEIR MANIPULATION TO CREATE NEW LARGE SCALE MATERIALS WHICH THEIR PHYSICAL, MECHANICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES BECOME MORE AFFECTED. NANOTECHNOLOGY INTRODUCES PROMISING ECONOMICAL SOLUTIONS AND PRODUCTS TO ACHIEVE RELIABLE SUSTAINABLE ENVIRONMENT. THE BUILDING SECTOR SHOWS A GREAT POTENTIALITY TO BE BENEFICIARY FROM THIS TECHNOLOGY. MANY DISTINGUISH APPLICATIONS HAVE BEEN ESTABLISHED IN CONSTRUCTION BUSINESS, FOR EXAMPLE IMPROVING THE PERFORMANCE OF TRADITIONAL BUILDING MATERIALS, LIKE CONCRETE, STEEL AND GLASS. CONCRETE IS BECOME STRONGER, MORE DURABLE AND MORE EASILY PLACED, STEEL TOUGHER AND GLASS SELF-CLEANING. INCREASED STRENGTH AND DURABILITY ARE ALSO A PART OF THE DRIVE TO REDUCE THE ENVIRONMENTAL FOOTPRINT OF THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT BY THE EFFICIENT 112 USE OF RESOURCES. THIS IS COULD BE ACHIEVED PRIOR TO THE CONSTRUCTION PROCESS BY A REDUCTION IN POLLUTION DURING THE PRODUCTION OF MATERIALS (E.G. CEMENT) AND ALSO IN SERVICE, THROUGH EFFICIENT USE OF ENERGY. PURIFICATION OF WATER AND REDUCTION OF AIR POLLUTION ARE SIGNIFICANT APPLICATIONS FOR WATER AND AIR FILTRATION (“NANOFILTRATION”). NANOAPPLICATIONS IN THE FIELD OF ENERGY ARE INTRODUCED MANY ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY ENERGY SYSTEMS TO REDUCE ENERGY CONSUMPTION OR TO PRODUCE RENEWABLE ENERGY BY PRODUCTION OF IMPROVED SOLAR CELLS.

DESIGN REQUIREMENTS
NANOTECHNOLOGY AND BUILDING SECTOR THE IMPLICATIONS OF NANOTECHNOLOGY ON BUILDING SECTOR ARE INTRODUCING NEW POTENTIALITIES FOR USED MATERIALS. THEY LEND BUILDING MATERIALS AND SURFACES ENTIRELY NEW PHYSICAL AND MECHANICAL PROPERTIES. THE KEY CHARACTERISTIC IS NOT THE MATERIAL ITSELF BUT THE SIZE OF THE PARTICLES. THESE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR PROPERTIES SUCH AS FIRE-RESISTANCE, DURABILITY AND STRENGTH. APPLICATIONS OF NANOTECHNOLOGY RANGE FROM CONTROLLABLE ADHESION AND GRIP, TRIBOLOGICAL ASPECTS SUCH AS ULTRA-LOW FRICTION, SWITCHABLE MAGNETISM OR LIGHT ABSORPTION, CONDUCTIVE TRANSPARENT SURFACES, LIGHT DIFFUSERS AND SO ON TO INSULATION MATERIALS FOR BUILDINGS. THE MULTITUDE OF NANOTECHNOLOGICAL PRODUCTS IN THIS AREA UNDERLINES THE ECONOMIC RELEVANCE OF SUCH NEW MATERIALS. NANOTECHNOLOGY IS AN “ENABLING TECHNOLOGY”. IT HELPS TO IMPROVE EXISTING PRODUCTS RATHER THAN CREATING COMPLETELY NEW PRODUCTS. WHAT IS NANO MATERIALS AND NANOTECHNOLOGY? NANOTECHNOLOGY IS THE MANIPULATION OF MATTER AT THE
114
SCALE OF INDIVIDUAL ATOMS AND MOLECULES. IT INCLUDES PROCESSES FOR MAKING MATERIALS, SYSTEMS AND STRUCTURES. SOME TYPES OF NANO-MATERIALS EXIST IN NATURE, BUT NANOTECHNOLOGY, THE DELIBERATE ENGINEERING OF NANOSTRUCTURES AND MATERIALS, LARGELY BEGAN IN THE 1980S WITH THE INVENTION OF NEW, MORE POWERFUL TYPES OF MICROSCOPES. “NANOTECHNOLOGY IS AN ENABLING TECHNOLOGY THAT ALLOWS US TO DEVELOP MATERIALS WITH IMPROVED OR TOTALLY NEW PROPERTIES”.
DESIGN REQUIREMENTS
WHAT IS NANOSCALE ?
NANOSCALE2 SCIENCE, ENGINEERING, AND TECHNOLOGY ARE FIELDS OF RESEARCH IN WHICH SCIENTISTS AND ENGINEERS MANIPULATE MATTER AT THE ATOMIC AND MOLECULAR LEVEL IN ORDER TO OBTAIN MATERIALS AND SYSTEMS WITH SIGNIFICANTLY IMPROVED PROPERTIES. NANOMATERIALS ARE USUALLY DEFINED AS MATERIALS THAT HAVE AT LEAST ONE DIMENSION SMALLER THAN 100 NANOMETERS. A NANOMETER IS APPROXIMATELY 1/80,000TH THE WIDTH OF A HUMAN HAIR OR 1/7,000TH THE SIZE OF A SINGLE RED BLOOD CELL. MATERIALS AT THE NANOSCALE OFTEN EXHIBIT PHYSICAL, CHEMICAL AND BIOLOGICAL PROPERTIES THAT ARE VERY DIFFERENT FROM THOSE OF THEIR NORMAL-SIZED COUNTERPARTS.
NANO PARTICLES A NANOPARTICLE IS A MICROSCOPIC PARTICLE WHOSE SIZE IS MEASURED IN NANOMETRES (NM). IT IS DEFINED AS A PARTICLE WITH AT LEAST ONE DIMENSION LESS THAN 200NM. WHEN BROUGHT INTO A BULK MATERIAL, NANOPARTICLES CAN STRONGLY INFLUENCE THE MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF THE MATERIAL, LIKE STIFFNESS OR ELASTICITY. SUCH NANOTECHNOLOGICALLY ENHANCED MATERIALS WILL ENABLE A WEIGHT REDUCTION ACCOMPANIED BY AN INCREASE IN STABILITY AND AN IMPROVED FUNCTIONALITY. TWO NANO-SIZED PARTICLES THAT STAND OUT IN THEIR APPLICATION TO CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS ARE TITANIUM DIOXIDE (TIO2) AND CARBON NANOTUBES (CNT‟S).
115
DESIGN REQUIREMENTS CARBON NANOTUBES THE CURRENT STARS OF MODERN NANOTECHNOLOGY ARE THE CARBON NANOTUBES (CNTS).3 THEY ARE CYLINDRICAL IN SHAPE, AS SHOWN IN FIGURE BELOW, AND THEIR NAME COMES FROM THEIR NANOMETER DIAMETER. THEY HAVE A DIAMETER OF BETWEEN ONE AND A FEW NANOMETERS AND CAN BE SEVERAL NANOMETERS LONG. NANOTUBES CAN ACT AS SEMICONDUCTORS OR AS CONDUCTORS. THEIR KEY PROPERTIES ARE GREAT STRENGTH COUPLED WITH LOW WEIGHT. NANOTUBES ARE ALWAYS MIXED WITH OTHER MATERIALS OR APPLIED TO SURFACES. ADDITIONAL WORK IS NEEDED IN ORDER TO ESTABLISH THE OPTIMUM VALUES OF CARBON NANOTUBES AND DISPERSING AGENTS IN THE MIX DESIGN PARAMETERS.
116
DESIGN REQUIREMENTS TITANIUM DIOXIDE TITANIUM DIOXIDE AS NANOPARTICLES IS A WIDELY USED WHITE PIGMENT BECAUSE OF ITS BRIGHTNESS. IT IS NORMALLY CAN BE USED AS AN EXCELLENT REFLECTIVE COATING. IT CAN BREAKS DOWN ORGANIC POLLUTANTS, VOLATILE ORGANIC COMPOUNDS, AND BACTERIAL MEMBRANES THROUGH POWERFUL CATALYTIC REACTIONS; THEREFORE, IT IS INCORPORATED, TO PAINTS, CEMENTS, WINDOWS, TILES, OR OTHER PRODUCTS FOR STERILIZING, DEODORIZING AND ANTI-FOULING PROPERTIES AND WHEN INCORPORATED INTO OUTDOOR BUILDING MATERIALS CAN SUBSTANTIALLY REDUCE CONCENTRATIONS OF AIRBORNE POLLUTANTS. ADDITIONALLY, AS TIO2 IS EXPOSED TO UV LIGHT, IT BECOMES INCREASINGLY HYDROPHILIC (ATTRACTIVE TO WATER), THUS IT CAN BE USED FOR ANTI-FOGGING COATINGS OR SELF-CLEANING WINDOWS. TITANIUM DIOXIDE (TIO2) IS ADDED TO CONCRETE TO IMPROVE ITS PROPERTIES. THE RESULTING CONCRETE HAS A WHITE COLOR THAT RETAINS ITS WHITENESS VERY EFFECTIVELY UNLIKE THE STAINED BUILDINGS OF THE MATERIAL‟S PIONEERING PAST. CEMENT AND NANOTECHNOLOGY “CO2 EMISSIONS FROM THE GLOBAL CEMENT INDUSTRY ARE SIGNIFICANT AND THEY ARE INCREASING. … THE GLOBAL CEMENT INDUSTRY PRODUCES AROUND 1.4 TONNES OF CO2 EACH YEAR. THIS REPRESENTS ABOUT 6% OF THE TOTAL WORLDWIDE MAN-MADE CO2 PRODUCTION.” IN THE FIELD OF CEMENT AND ITS DERIVATIVES, SUSTAINABILITY WILL BE A MAJOR ISSUE. THE CONTROL OF THE CEMENT HYDRATION COULD LEAD TO A NEW GENERATION OF PRODUCTS. THEIR PRODUCTION PROCESSES COULD BE MORE ENVIRONMENT-FRIENDLY. NANO-SILICA ADDITION TO CEMENT BASED MATERIALS CAN LEAD TO IMPROVEMENTS IN DURABILITY AND THE COMPRESSIVE STRENGTH OF THE REFINED MATERIAL (3 TO 6 TIMES HIGHER AT DIFFERENT AGES). CONCERNING THE CORROSION PROBLEMS IN CONCRETE PRODUCTS, NANOTECHNOLOGY CAN OFFER SMART SOLUTIONS PROVIDING COATINGS THAT RESPOND TO EXTERNAL AGENTS WITH A „RESPONSE‟ THAT CAN REPAIR OR PREVENTDAMAGE.
117
DESIGN REQUIREMENTS SCIENCE OF MATERIALS THESE MATERIAL CHARTS AND DIAGRAM SHOWS THE RADIATION RAYS AND HOW THEY MOVE THROUGH A DIFFERENT TYPES OF MATERIALS. THIS IS A BASIC MATERIAL KNOWLEDGE THAT ANYONE IN EARTH KNOWS ABOUT AND HOW TO BLOCK THE RADIATION RAYS WITH SOME SPECIAL MATERIAL LIKE BLOCKING THE GAMMA RAYS WITH LEAD AND STEEL BECAUSE GAMMA RAY IS THE TOUGHEST RAY TO BLOCK.
118
DESIGN REQUIREMENTS
EACH MATERIAL USED IS DIFFERENT FROM OTHER TYPE OF MATERIAL BUT EVEN THE SAME MATERIALS ARE NOT ALSO THE SAME BECAUSE OF THE DENSITY OF EACH MATERIALS EACH TYPE HAS A DENSITY DIFFERENCE FACTOR. SOME MATERIALS WHICH ARE USED FOR THE NUCLEAR STORAGE WASTE DISPOSAL LIKE TITANIUM THAT CAN ALSO BE USED AS AN ARCHITECTURAL MATERIAL FOR BUILDING THE PROJECT AND ALSO IS USED FOR RADIATION SHIELDING ALSO LIKE POLYMERS AND ELS.
119
ALL WITH ALL IT SAID ITS BETTER TO REMEMBER THAT ALL THOSE ARE COMMON KNOWLEDGE THAT WE CAN IMPROVE IT WITH NANOTECHNOLOGY AND IT CAN IMPROVE THE WORK OF THESE MATERIALS AND ENHANCE THEIR CAPABILITY TO SHIELD US FROM RADIATION.
DESIGN REQUIREMENTS CONSTRUCTION METHODS AND FORM STUDY THERE ARE MANY WAYS TO CONSTRUCT A BUILDING AS WE STUDY THEM BUT EACH PROJECT HAS ITS OWN CONSIDERATIONS. FOR DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS AND HOW TO BUILD THIS PROJECT WE NEED TO GO TO THE STEREOTYPE MINDS AND SAY IF IT WAS IN THE PAST THEY WOULD THOUGHT ITS GOING TO BE BUILT UNDERGROUND AND THAT NEEDS SOME STUDYING IN BRIEF JUST FOR OUR KNOWLEDGE. THE GROUND SECTION SHOWS WHAT NEEDS TO BE UNDERGROUND WITH THE SURVIVALS IN THE (FALLOUT) SHELTER SO THIS STUFF CAN PURIFY THE AIR AND GIVE THEM THEIR SUPPLIES. 120
THIS WAY OF SURVIVAL AND BUILDING UNDERGROUND WAS MODIFIED BY TIME AND TRANSFORMED FROM AN UNDERGROUND SHELTER TO A SURVIVAL BUNKER WITH MANY ENHANCEMENTS BROUGHT TO IT. BUT WHATS AM PROVOKING IS AFTER A WAR, BOMBING AND NUCLEAR RADIATION LEAK. SO WHAT DO I NEED TO THINK ABOUT THAT IS GOING TO HELP ME WITH MY DESIGN FOR THIS PROJECT?!
DESIGN REQUIREMENTS THATS WHY WE NEED TO THINK OF WHAT WE HAVE TODAY AND WHAT DO WE NEED WHEN IT COMES IN TECHNOLOGY, MATERIALS AND CONSTRUCTION. ITS IMPORTANT TO BE UPTO DATE WITH THESE STUFF SO WE STOP BUILDING THE SAME WAY OUR GRANDFATHERS BUILT THEIR HOMES.
A SAMPLE OF NANOTECHNOLOGY IMPLEMENTED IN CONCRETE
ALSO ITS IMPORTANT FOR US TO SEE HOW THE NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS ARE CONSTRUCTED. AFTER LEARNING ABOUT THE CONSTRUCTION FROM A POWER PLANT CONSTRUCTION ENGINEER. ITS EASY TO SAY THAT THE CONSTRUCTION METHOD IS MORE LIKELY BE AS A HOSPITAL BUT WITH MORE SYSTEMS AND EMISSION ROOMS THAT ARE CONSTRUCTED SEPARATELY.
121
DESIGN REQUIREMENTS WHAT FORMS ARE MORE LIKELY TO BE USED IN THE PROJECT? THE FORM NEEDS TO TAKE THE SHAPE THAT CAN HELP ON OVER COMING THE RADIOACTIVE RADIATION. SO IT MAYBE TAKE AN ORGANIC FORM OR GEOMETRIC. BUT CHOOSING THE RIGHT FORM CANT BE ON APPEARANCES IN THIS SITUATIONS BUT IT NEEDS TO COME FROM A SCIENTIFIC REASON, TECHNOLOGY AND SCIENCE. AFTER RESEARCH ON THE BETTER SHAPES TO USE AND CHOOSING A CERTAIN SHAPES ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES IT WAS CLEAR TO ME THAT : COMBINATION BETWEEN GEOMETRY AND ORGANIC?
122
DESIGN REQUIREMENTS HUMANS OWN PROTECTION TO MOVE FROM OUTSIDE THE PROJECT TO THE INSIDE THE PROJECT THE SETTLERS NEED A SPECIAL CLOTHING TO MOVE EASLY BUT THIS CLOTH ARE MADE FROM AN ANTI-RADIATION MATERIAL LIKE POLYMERS AND NOT TO FORGET THAT THEY NEED THE PURFICATION MASK TO THEY CAN BREATH EASLY WHEN THEY ARE OUTSIDE THE PROJECT.
RADIATION MASK
MAYBE CLOTHING DOESN’T CONCERN MUCH PEOPLE OR EVEN FASHION SO THEY THINK ITS A MINER THING WHICH IS WRONG. WE DRESS WHAT WE ARE AND WHAT IS OUR ENVIRONMENT REFLECTS TO US. SAME GOES FOR THE PEOPLE WHO LIVE IN THE HOT OR COLD WEATHER SAME GOES IN A CONTAMINATED LOCATION.
