Assignment 1A:

Analyze 3 buildings, one from each of the different assembly system types listed below. Choose buildings that broaden your range of knowledge.

Layered Wall System: See attached list of examples

Monolithic Wall System: See attached list of examples

Curtain Wall System: See attached list of examples

DELIVERABLES:

1- Provide a brief narrative (2-3 paragraphs) of each case study, describing the Assembly System, and how it responds to the climate, geography, building use and other regional considerations. Some speculation may be necessary, so make sure to back up your argument.

2- Include reference drawings of the typical floor plan(s), building section(s) and exterior elevation(s) at 1/4” = 1’-0” scale. These will be used to help explain each case study, and as reference for the subsequent assignments.

3- Include any 3D images and photographs that are useful and relevant to describing the assembly system and other considerations.

4- Compose each of your 3 assembly system case studies on 11x17 title block sheets (PDF format). Include the narrative, scaled drawings and any additional images. Each case study building should be clearly identified along with the assembly system type. Be selective with the amount of information you show and edit extraneous information from the drawings and images. Strive to develop a consistent graphic and organize sheets logically

South Benedict Chapel

Peter Zumthor Graubunden, Switzerland

Peter Zumthor’s South Benedict Chapel was designed in 1988 after an avalanche destroyed the original chapel located here.

The building is constructed with both modern materials and techniques for the area but was designed to keep tradition in mind.

The exterior wall is made up of wood shingles and the walls are an array of wooden columns. Toward the top of the building are clearstory windows.

Study 1

Tozzer Anthropology Building

Harvard Universtity

Kennedy & Violich Architecture

The Tozzer Anthropology Building at Harvard University was built in 2014.

This is an adaptive reuse project of a modernist style library that was turned into something to would meet current standards for energy and code.

The brick course throughout the building is unique in that it shifts from the course below. This gives the building the feeling that it is moving.

Assignment 1B:

Using Assignment One (A) as a launching point, produce supporting diagrams and an axonometric diagram to identify the major systems of each case study. Some speculation may be necessary, so back up your descriptions by providing technically appropriate explanations.

DELIVERABLES:

1- Draw a wall section diagram, plan detail diagram through a building fenestration, and an overall exterior axon diagram at a scale of 1/4” = 1’-0”. Use drawings from Assignment One (A) as base to keynote or callout the diagrams described above.

2- Identify the 4 major systems of each case study. i. Foundation System

ii. Floor System iii. Wall System

iv. Roof System

3- List the major components of each system in order from the interior face to the outer. Include brief annotations describing the materials and purpose/function of each component. Include small photos of any components that you are not familiar with next to the annotations.

4- Compose each case study drawing diagrams on 11”x17” title block sheets

(PDF format). Feel free to expand upon the number and types of underlay drawings in order to best represent the systems being diagrammed. Each case study building should be clearly identified along with the assembly system type. Be selective with the amount of information you show.

Assignment 1C:

Select one case study assembly from Assignment One (B) to further explore in greater detail and understanding. Draw and annotate a wall section, an exterior wall plan detail, a partition section detail and an elevation detail. Each drawing should show enough information to convey how it’s assembled, and the components relate to each other. Some speculation may be necessary, so back up your descriptions by providing technically appropriate explanations.

DELIVERABLES:

1- Draw a wall section, an exterior plan detail, a partition section detail and an elevation detail of each case study at a scale of 3/4” = 1’-0”. All drawings should be produced using CAD technology (AutoCAD, Revit, etc.)

Typical for all assignments moving forward.

2- Research your local energy code requirements to determine the R-value required for the building envelope. The r-value is also determined by the climate zone in your local jurisdiction. Once you know the R-value, choose a type of insulation (batten, closed-cell spray foam, wool, rigid board) and assign the amount of insulation needed for each system based on their individual Rvalues. (i.e. fiberglass batten insulation = 3.4 per inch)

3- Identify the assemblies of the 4 major systems: Foundation System Floor System Wall System Roof System

4- List components of each assembly referring to the annotations of assignment One B in order from interior to the outer face. Elaborate upon the descriptions of each component’s material purpose/function and performance.

The exterior wall construction is made up of a mix of burnt cedar panels and curtainwall. There is no pattern that matches the elevation I created but it is supposed to represent the speratic nature of the cedar panel placement.

I chose to go with a typical acoustic rated interior wall section since the floor was called out as having an acoustic layer. I saw two types of walls while looking through photos. One with a similar wood paneling and one then a typical wall type.

(3) Section detail at wall-to-roof connection

(4) Plan detail at window/door jamb

2- Use annotated leaders to locate and identify all materials and components within each connection detail. Include more elaborate descriptions of function for each material or component.

3- Compose each of your 4 connection details on 11x17 sheets (PDF format). Each detail should be clearly identified along with any useful images that help illustrate the condition.

Assignment 2C:

Using Assignment Two (A) and (B) as a launching point, develop 2 axonometric wall sections, one showing the interior plane and the other showing the exterior. These should illustrate the various materials, components, and connections, as well as their relationships from interior to exterior. Select location and view angle of each detail with instructor, making sure to show the most useful information about the systems and components, while minimizing redundant information. Make sure to back up your details with technically accurate drawings, annotations, and descriptive explanations.

DELIVERABLES:

1- Draw 2 Axonometric Wall Section Details, each at a scale of 3/4”=1’-0”.

One axon is to illustrate the interior floor, wall and ceiling planes, and the other axon is to illustrate the exterior ground, wall, and roof planes. Each wall section cut is to illustrate the following conditions: (i) where the building meets the ground (ii) where the floor meets the wall (iii) where the wall is penetrated at a window or door (iv) where the wall meets the roof.

Each axon should include an entire bay or a minimum 8ft of floor/wall/roof depth. Don’t forget to consider the materials and their relationships from interior to exterior.

2- Use annotated leaders to locate and identify all materials and components within each Axonometric Wall Section. Identifying the components of the assembly system in order from interior face to the outer. Include descriptions of materials, their purpose/function, and the performance of each component.

3- Compose each of Axonometric Wall Section on its own 11x17 sheet (PDF format). Each detail should be clearly identified along with any useful images that help illustrate the condition. Strive to develop a consistent graphic and organize sheets logically.
