The Franzefoss quarry at Tiller has been providing agregates for the area of Trondheim for the last four decades. Upon the closure of the quarry in the next years, the site will loose its industrial use, leaving a deep, shaded cut in the hills near Tiller. The quarry can be seen as a wound in the landscape, having a lot of disadvantages such as lot of shade, no soil for growing plants, high cliffs and plateaus making it hard to develop the area. That’s why it was very important for us to develop a sustainable concept for the reuse of the quarry, taking in account the existing infrastructure and topography and turning the disadvantages of the site in strong advantages. We are proposing to use the former quarry as a facility for intense sports, such as motocross, skicross and bmx. With only little adjustments the cliffs, rocks and spoil heaps can be transformed into the required parcours and tracks. As well the very shady conditions in the quarry are excelent for winter sport, letting the snow last longer than usual in Trondheim. Additionally our aim was to develop buildings for the site, using the special conditions as good as possible to reduce emissions during construction as well their
energy demand later on. The exposed good quality rock is making the site an excelent spot for light weight membrane structures, having the possibility to anchor directly into the rock instead of having the need of massive foundations. A recently invented new type of insulated membrane also is solving the thermal issues membrane structures had in the past. The cooling and heating demand can be reduced by using the exposed stone as huge thermal mass and as well by positioning facilities based on their required indoor temperature. For example, the training spaces as dry slope and trampolines are located in the shade of the cliffs to keep the indoor temperature low. The other spaces as changing rooms, cafe, bar and service rooms with higher heating demand are positioned and orientated to gain as much as possible solar heat during winter. Trondheim is missing places to train and compete in disciplines such as motocross, skicross and bmx. We believe the Franzefoss quarry can be the perfect location for a new intense sports park fulfilling these demands. Moreover, the society’s interest as well as understanding of sustainability can be adressed by showing the sustainable opportunities that can be discovered even in activities considered as dirty and polluting as motocross.

The two maps are part of the solar study of the site, showing the possible solar exposure on the area of the quarry at morning and at evening throughout a year. It is visible that the plateaus of the quarry create interesting patterns of very shaded and very sunny areas close to each other. This conditions can be used for the project to create spaces with different indoor temperatures due to different solar gains.

The main building is located on one of the 14 meter high cliffs. The training spaces as dry slope and trampolines are located at the lower plateau in the shade of the cliff and upper building part. This and the large surface of exposed rock that is funtioning as thermal mass is keeping the temperature constantly low for sport activities. The changing rooms and trainer offices are above the training facilities on the edge of the cliff, using the temperature difference regarding to height and can also be heated if necessary with infloor heating. On the upper plateau a double shell construction is used. The angle of facade is optimized to have high solar gains in winter and low hains in summer. Addition-
ally, exposed stone floor is used as thermal mass to store solar energy of the day to warm in the night. The upper plateau hosts the cafe and and bar with kitchen and public toilets. The inner shell with parts of cafe and kitchen is heated to average room temperature.The temperature of the outer shell with its additional sitting places can differ more during the seasons, taking in account the different amount of clothing sportists and visitors have throughout the year. In case of overheating the ventilation openings between the changing rooms and the upper shell can be used so creating stack effect, and pulling in the cool air of the training areas in the warmer part of the upper shell.
