From there, visitors may choose their path through museum spaces -ascending to upper levels either via the “moving room” glass elevator in the northeast corner of the new facility, or the grand staircase on the east side of the facility perpendicular to South Spring Street. The grand staircase - an interstitial three-level passageway situated between the building’s woven composite exterior grid and interior structure - is intersected by a glass wall dividing the stairway into a ten-foot-wide exterior space, and a six-footwide interior space. The unique passage allows for the natural blending of outdoor and indoor spaces and will feature mobile pedestals where art will be exhibited.

Understanding the Building
Aspen Art Museum by Shigeru Ban Architects
Shigeru Ban is a Japanese architect known for testing the limits of materials to achieve his goals. Wood, paper tubes and even shipping containers are all part of an exploration of sustainable materials used to design with nature. In the Aspen Art Museum, this firm provides another aesthetic lesson about the transparency of designing with nature. To enter the museum, visitors walk through a “woven gateway” which surrounds the building. The public climbs to the top level on a glass stairway, where a large roof garden provides a view to the mountains. Then as if they were at a ski slope, they explore the museum from the top down. The
roof garden is an integral part of the design and becomes the entrance hall, public gathering
space, cafe and outdoor projection space.
The architect’s goal was to create a unified relationship between the structure and its surroundings. His design uses large glass planes on the stairway and operable glass wall systems to create in-between spaces from which the public can experience the art, each other and the natural surroundings in new ways each time they visit. The challenge faced by the project team was extensive. As defined by the DOE, Aspen, Colorado is in Zone 7 of the Building America and IECC climate zones. This zone is considered a “Very Cold” region with 12,600 heating degree-days (65-degree F basis). Aspen can also have hot dry 90-degree-day summers. The architects and engineers were required to find a glass product that would provide the required insulation values to meet the 2009 International Building and Energy Conservation Code. According to the architect, the climate design concept for the building relies on “thermos” principle, where spaces with a higher tolerance for climate variation are wrapped around the gallery spaces where climate variation must be minimized. connections to the outdoors.
The

entire upper level of the building may be opened to the outdoors
by retracting a large-scale operable door wall system.
In addition to this innovative climate design concept, the building maximizes opportunities for daylighting, while mediating direct solar gain. The unique woven exterior screen and long-span timber space frame supporting the roof are used to diffuse light entering through the extensive glass curtain wall and skylight system.
Structural glass floors provide access to daylighting of gallery spaces below.
The monumental sliding glass system on the roof spans a 90-degree zero-post opening of approximately 84 feet. The thermally broken slim profile lift and slide system is a gateway to the museum at the rooftop gathering space. In temperate weather, the pair of 42-foot-wide glass wall systems seems to disappear, removing any obstruction to the outdoor terrace and the Rockies beyond. It also opens up the interior space to daylight and fresh breezes. When the weather is extreme, the 6-foot-wide by 8-foot-tall 14-panel glass wall system closes providing maximum insulation and shelter against the elements. The glass-to-frame ratio accompanied by narrow stiles, ensures the system provides maximum views of the beautiful mountain scenery even when the system is closed. The narrow aluminum frames provide stability to this engineered opening because of the structural advantages of extruded aluminum frames.

Roof Design
A number of different schemes and connection typologies were evaluated in an effort to solve the unique structural challenges of the truss. It was important to work to the strengths of local fabricators while meeting strict budget requirements. The
first challenge of the design was the small structural depth, which resulted
in very large chord stresses.
To
minimize the eccentricity at the chord connection
points a half- lap connection type was adopted.
SOURCE: AGCACE.COM
This resulted in the chord members occupying the same plane, which was highly desireable architecturally, but also resulted in a reduction in net area at the joints, and local bending stresses at the chord notches. A laminated spruce LVL material was chosen for the chord material to provide the required strength. The thicker profile between the half-laps helped improve the members’ buckling strength. All chord members are 5 1⁄4 in deep x 6 3⁄4 in wide.

Structure Analysis
The building is 100 ft square with one level below grade and three levels above grade. Strict limits on the total building height set the top of roof at 47 ft above street level. Ceiling height requirements in the galleries at levels 1 and 2 set the third floor height, leaving a maximum depth of 3 ft for the wood structure. The wood truss covers slightly more than half of the roof area, extending from edge to edge of the building plan, and along a diagonal from corner to corner. The truss is sup- ported on a series of two, three, and four-part column clusters, with a maximum span of approximately 50 ft. The truss cantilevers approximately 10 ft at the roof edges. The architect’s concept called for a truss with chords on a 4 ft square grid with top and bottom chords offset by 2 ft in each plan direction. Web members were to be of curved wood forming a wave shape that connected to the chords only at tangent points. In addition the architect wanted to minimize the steel components in the truss construction.

Passive Design Approach
• Air dry “sweating” glass: By blowing warm air over cold glass exterior walls, the potential for condensation is alleviated. The technique brings the cold outdoor surfaces into balance with the warm, humid interior air, and eliminates potential for water droplets to form. Automated temperature sensors provide spot control, further conserving energy as they monitor appropriate tolerance ranges for differently regulated areas.
• Recycling “waste heat”: By redirecting excess heat to the non - critical building perimeter and exterior snowmelt areas, the art galleries are protected from overheating in the well insulated, sealed building envelope. Chilled water provides cooling systems to the galleries year round in lieu of natural ventilation (allowing outdoor air in), which would compromise indoor air quality standards in critical areas. • Balancing
the cooling system with crowd flow:
Shifting
the cooling
load between galleries at times of special events keeps humidity and heat levels in check, which otherwise would be raised through a crowd’s collective breathing and body warmth.
By “starving”
unpopulated
galleries, pulling cool air away and into the event gallery, appropriate
diagonals supporting the deck
climate levels are maintained.
• Design
yacht-like maintenance:
Similar
to a yacht in which equipment
is tucked away in tight spaces, the museum’s maintenance room is
“tricky.” Electronic modeling revealed how to design a close fit for the fundamental systems. Quick release devices on ductwork, for example, allow staff to remove those sections to get behind to the primary piping for heat and water.

Project Construction
Aspen Art Museum by Shigeru Ban Architects
The team kicked off the project with six months of preconstruction. A key focus was to evaluate the structure. The team determined that a post–tension cast in place concrete structure would allow them to minimize the overall size and depth of the building to conform to City of Aspen building height restrictions. This structure also enabled the museum to achieve an open concept floor plan void of columns. The highly artistic and unique paper tube construction had not been used before in the United States. Being an international firm, Turner was able to be resourceful when seeking a millwork contractor that could think out of the box. The team chose a contractor, Imperial Woodworking Enterprises, Inc., who had proved themself on the Modern Wing in Chicago giving the AAM team confidence in their ability to overcome unique challenges of product not commonly used in construction.
