A02 Interim Submission – Built Detail Option By Lachlan Hine #640990 Within the Murcutt Guest Studio there are many different structural elements. As such I think that it will be best to just focus on the most important examples. The roof of the Guest Studio has a few different elements across its different parts, notably a: -­‐ Cantilevered roof -­‐ Skillion roof -­‐ Pitched roof And a -­‐ Flat roof Within the walls of the Guest Studio, there are many noggins being used. I found these interesting, as previous to this moment I had never heard of them. Noggins are the horizontal members which stop the studs from buckling under the weight of the roof above it; a sample sketch which I attempted to draw can be seen to the right. I feel that the other important structural element to the Guest Studio is the floor joists and the bearers located on the base posts. Whilst the joists would not normally be that spectacular, as this is a renovation/remodeling of an existing shack there was already some wooden base posts in existence, which Murcutt then had to incorporate into his design. Materials: There are many materials which be utilised when making the section of the Guest Studio. Materials that will be used include: Steel

Glass

Timber Noggins Rafters Downpipe Bolts Roof sheets

Pipes Studs Battens Aluminium Insect Mesh Insulation Plasterboard/Villaboard

Zincalume (A mixture of zinc and aluminium) Bolts Bracing Box Gutter Cladding Timber window frame RWH

Construction: Although we have not started construction on the built section yet, in our second workshop this week we began to draw the section on a large cutout of wood, which can be seen over the page. This involved using pencils and a scale ruler to draw a one-­‐to-­‐one outline of the various parts of the section.
