TERMINOLOGY: Pavilion - From Old French paveillon “large tent; butterfly” (12c.), from Latin papilionem (nominative papilio) “butterfly, moth,” in Medieval Latin “tent” (see papillon); the type of tent so called on resemblance to wings.

The design of the airship uses carbon fiber as a replacement to the existing outdated aluminium frame of modern airships. The flexibility of CRP allowed the primary strcutre to work together with the inflated balloons to create inhabitable spaces inbetween used during the campaign tour. These interior spaces arecomposed by: a private inhabitable zone for party members, one central core which provides public members with a backstage experience of the event, and a deployable stage for the presidential speeches. The deployable aspect of the stage gives a solution to the current inefficient campaign method, allowing speeches to be given without landing. Inhabitable Floor Plan 1:250

he Campaign Pavilion uses airship technology to democratise the celebration of presidetial campaigns in America. This new transportation method enables American’s presidential candidates to reach not just major cities in swing states, but also the smaller towns in between. Increasing the number of people participating in national conventions and other political speeches around swing states would not just benefit the presidential candidate but also the nation with its political interest.

The proposed American 56 days promise tour divides its times between all 12 swing states in America. Starting in Oxford, Ohio the campaign pavillion goes from east to west celebrating politics and inviting a winder range of the American population to learn and interact with the country’s politics.

Lobbying as a Legal Act Least Transparent Lobbying

Out of all registered countries which use lobbying as a legal act, the USA is the only one which does not disclose the discussion between lobbyists and goverment entities. This makes the USA the least transparent country when lobbying.

Lobbying in Other Countries In countries such as the Netherland lobbying happens publicly. Unlike the USA, in these countries lobbying decisions a policy intentions are recorded and accessed by the public.

National Convention National Convetion is held every 2 years by party in the United States to define who is their representative or who is running for president. These events usally take place in big venues such as: stadiums or music halls.

Country is Watching During events like the national convention, parties take the opportunity to really connect with the public around the country, as in america watching the National Convention is a tradition by many.

FDR Giving his Speech From the Railcart Balcony

FDR had a consistent strategy to connect with the crowd, his speeches included: -Brief exposition of some of local or national concern. -Always reference their local college or baseball team. -Then FDR would introduce his wife and daughter.

Small Town Population Gathering Around The Train For Presidential Speech Franklin D. Roosevelt was the 32nd president of the United States. Due to his disabilities caused from polio FDR was forced to develop his own method of Campaigning. Until then most presidential cadidates would use trains for campaigning, but would only stop in main cities as it took a long time to prepare the stages for presidential speech. Therefore in order to avoid public seeing FDR struggling to walk, the party members designed a stage balcony in the back of the train which allowed speeches to be given from the train. This also enable FDR more time to stop in smaller towns and give his speech, creating a new method of campaigning called: Whistle-stop Train Tour

After FDR’s mandate, his vice president Harry S. Truman used the same method as FDR on the campaign. Using the back of the Railcart to give speeches in a faster way, and this really pushed his campaign forwards making him the 33rd President of the United States.

Truman’s Whistle-stop Tour

Truman managed to make 247 appearences in 206 counties through a 9,000 miles journey and that year voting turnout was 53%. Due to the introduction of the television this 1948 Whistle-stop tour was the last to happen. From then on most campaign methods would focus on television adverts or visits to major cities, a method similar to what we have today.

Lobbying Defined as an influence of political power by offering public contributions that affect political outcomes.

During the Donald Trump’s presidential campaign in 2016, oil companies donated $56 million to republicans. Then since in power Donald Trump has approoved multiple policies which favoured the industry, including the approval the construction of the controversial Keystone XL oil pipeline, two months after taking office.

Context + Lobbying (U.S.) -As a govermental capaign project, lobbying will be the only source of funding for this project. All of the spending are going ot be recorded.

If the rigid truss framework can be thought of the vehicle’s ‘bones,’ then the Aeroshell can be thought of as its muscle and skin. Together aluminum and textiles synergistically provided the Aeroscraft with the desired lightweight rigid structure that imparts its form.

External Consultants Due to the complexity of the project and relative lack of precedents a large number of consultants and specialits will need to be appointed to advise on; structure, aeronautics, ballooning, material testing and music and event design. Consultants will move in and out of the reasearch and development, design and construction phases.

Sources of Funding/Client 2007 to present. Us Military: £250 million UK Government: £2 million

Total R+D Cost: £280 million

Level 0

European Union: £2 million Crowd Funding: £2 million Public Shares: £24 million

Cost to build a Unit: £25 million

With this in mind standard procurement methods would not be appropriate. The Design, Build and Operate Procurement process allows the ‘contractor’, to bring inspecialists when and where necessary. The project risk and uncertainty would make it exceedingly difficult to put the project out to a traditional tender. Careful construction management will have to be implement to pull the multiple research and design teams together. An Extremely high level of quality is required and specialist manufactors will have to e used for many of the instruments and balloon memembranes.

Structural Floor Plates The light weight floor plate made of laminated wood and carbon fibre supports brace all the structure together providing extra stability.

Insertable Pods -The insertable pods holds all the services and wet rooms of the airship, this allows them to be replaceble and also maintained.

Internal Walls -The internal walls are made of thin carbon fibre and the hollow gap in the middle allows to service pipes and cables to run through.

Deployable Stairs -Thedeployable stairs are the main public entrance to the airship. This area of the airship is closed off when flying.

Structural Netting -The netting is used to replace railings and maintain the core as light weight as possible. The lift in the core allows disabled access to all floors.

In order to connect two carbon fibre elements that are fabricated together, Formula one enginers use steel joints that spread the forces through the carbon fibre componets to avoid point connections like bolts, because that weakens the carbon fiber component.

Componenets are addembled to create each vertical strucatural element:

All vertical structural elements are joint together by the main spine.

Modern Formula 1 cars use a steel connection that spread the forces through the carbon fiber componets in order to connect these elements with non-carbon fiber parts of the car, such as: engine or suspentions

SPECIMEN NINE

Specimen seven expanded its structure to wrap the ballons and bladders, however this would only add a small amount of support, making it almost irrelevant.

Specimen eight is simpler and therefore lighter and more maliable, the extended wing is supported by a connection piece from one end to the other.

Specimen nine similar to speciment seven evolved supporting ballon strcutres which focus on the smaller ballons.

Specimen ten evolved to a simpler version from the others yet extremely functional. However its a much thicker and heavier specimen.

Specimen eleven has some features from specimen ten, however it tries to be much lighter by shrinking its skin to the absolute minimum.

Specimen twelve uses more gaps in its structure to become lighter. Its skin responds to the ballons, bladders and also to the livable spaces inside.

-Composites stand very on the weight to strenght ratio graph of material. Its propreties allows it to be extremly maliable and resistant. This made carbon fiber to be the material chosen to design this new airship. -Carbon fiber is an extremely strong material, however it is very weak in concentrated stress such as bolt joints. Therefore in order to join carbon fibre componets its necessary to use still parts which spread the stress through the carbon fibre skin.

Epoxies

-Similarly to a fish body structure the airship uses a central core as a spine which holds the entire structure together in compression. The structural vertical sections serve as the fish bones directing the vertical loads back into the spine. The structural bladders work as the muscles in the fish distributing the buckling forces acting on the vertical trusses.

Stage 1: Vertical Section Build up

Stage 2: Vertical Section Support

-Vertical section is built up by pieces. Each individual element is lifted up by a crane and fixed with scaffolding by workers avoinding the structure from colapsing.

-In Each individual element from the vertical section is bolted together by workers placed on temporary scaffol,ding systems.

Stage 3: Core Assembly to Vertical Section

Stage

-Once the middle vertical section is assembled and fully supported by the scaffolding the core is attached to it. Again fixed by the workers.

-After all vertical sections are assembled and supported the horrizontal beams and the main spine of the ariship join all the vertical sections together.

4: Horrizontal Support + Spine

Stage 5: Deflated Balloons Attached to Strucutre

Stage 6: Balloons Inflation + Internal Spaces

-After all the CRP structure is atthaced the 4 top balloon row are attached by the workers whilst they are still deflated to avoid the main structure from destabilising.

-Once the top ballons are places they are slowly inflated asuring they grow equally.Once the ballons are eflated most of the scaffolding can be removed and the structure is pinned down to the ground

Ballons (Inflated or Defalted) Construction + Scaffolding Stratregy -In order to maintain the structure stable trhough the building process structure scaffolding will be used to preserve the integrety of the CRP strcture. - This scaffolding system will only be removed once the ballons are fully inflated and the strcutyre is off the grown, as the overall structure is at its strongest once the CRP and the ballons are working together.

-By Analysing the wind strenght and directionallity on the months of September and October I was able to design a route which would allow the airship to go with the wind direction during its flying periods. -This would make the trips faster and would also save fuel as the wind would help the airship to move. By calculating the wind speed and the surface area of the airship I weas able to predict an increase of 12.2% on fuel Efficiency. - This 56 days camapign route is designed to maximise the locations reached by the airship. It spends more times on the states in which have more influence in the elections to maximise the chance of the candidate winning.

2% Fuel Efficiency -By counting the particle touching the airship propotipe when simulating the wind force in flow (Maya). I was able to estimate by how streamline the shape was.

Non-Streamline - Air Flows Away From Object Generating More Drag.

-With an increase of 5% of the main stream capabilities of the airship there is a drastic drop in drag created by the airship itself. - Therefore with this reduction of drag an estimated 2% of fuel will be saved during the flying period, reducing the number of refueling needed when camapigning.

Streamline - Tubing allow Air To Flow Smoothly

Campaign Route Issues: 1. Existing campaign methods does not focus on personal interaction and it has an impact on voting Turnouts in the US.

Campaign Security Due to the exposure of the cadidate during these campaigns, a lot of security is required.

Campaign Speeches Political speeches take place in tactical location in swing states in america. Usually these speeches are arranged before hand in order to reach the public members of the city.

(2%) Artificial Lights

Sun Light Study According to Optimum Route -As the airship is constantly moving it is difficult to estimate how much natural light is going to enter the internal spaces. However by looking at the route suggested on the page before, it is possible to calculate the percentage in which the airship is travelling in what direction and this can be used to take an average of the natural light entering the interior spaces throughout the day. -This enabled me to calculate how the lux levels in the interior of the airship and tehrefore understand where artificial light was nescessary to bring the lux levels to the standard for those spaces.

Lux Levels 500 lx 430 lx 360lx 290lx 220lx

Reporters Camp Usually when filming a important campaign speech, reporters set camp into the location the speech takes place. This can be in the form of pop up tents or available existing structure.

Existing Campaign System Existing campaign methods take up too many coordanation due to the different locations visited through the campaign. This increase the cost of the process and decreases the amount of places visited.

Thermal Confort - Thermal Mass + Mechanical Ventilation. -Due to the change in temperature throughout the swing states in america, the airship will use an air-conditioning system similar to the one used in small motor planes. Where gills in the front of the airship will collect air and direct it to different parts of the airships through placed vents, as shown in the image above. -Aerogel a material used in space shuttles due to its light weight propreties and high termal mass. This is the perfect material to use in my airship as weight is high priority and it needs to be kept down.

All stops will use the same approach explained above no matter the size of the city. In smaller cities where baseball stadiums arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t available there is still an opportunity to campaign from the sirship without coming down. This will allow the goverment campaigning to inform these communities of their intentions and ideologies.

The Campaign Factory is a political department for the Republican party members. Funded by Elon Musk the project allows smaller tech companies such as: Tesla, Space X and Boring Company, to contribute towards lobbying with their technological expertise. Presenting opportunities to various companies to influence policies created by the country’s Republican government, and therefore turning lobbying more democratic.

The design is composed of two major parts, one permanent and other deployable, which are combined to optimize the existing campaign setting. The permanent aspect of the design works as a congregational ground for all party members and the general public. This interaction will contribute not just towards ideological transparency, but also to valuable public data collection from visiting members. The deployable aspect of the design uses lightweight airship technology to innovate current inefficient campaigning methods in the USA and maximise the amount of locations visited in the two months of political campaign. As a faster and versatile method of transportation, the deployable design will allow political campaigns to reach a wider range of voters by increasing the party's visibility, and also invite more people to be involved with the country's politics.

t the center of Unit 14’s academic exploration lies Buckminster Fuller’s ideal of the ‘The Comprehensive Designer’, a master-builder that follows Renaissance principles and a holistic approach. Fuller referred to this ideal of the designer as somebody who is capable of comprehending the ‘integrateable significance’ of specialised findings and is able to realise and coordinate the commonwealth potentials of these discoveries while not disappearing into a career of expertise. Like Fuller, we are opportunists in search of new ideas and their benefits via architectural synthesis. As such Unit 14 is a test bed for exploration and innovation, examining the role of the architect in an environment of continuous change. We are in search of the new, leveraging technologies, workflows and modes of production seen in disciplines outside our own. We test ideas systematically by means of digital as well as physical drawings, models and prototypes. Our work evolves around technological speculation with a research-driven core, generating momentum through astute synthesis. Our propositions are ultimately made through the design of buildings and through the in-depth consideration of structural formation and tectonic constituents. This, coupled with a strong research ethos, will generate new and unprecedented, viable and spectacular proposals. They will be beautiful because of their intelligence - extraordinary findings and the artful integration of those into architecture.

UNIT

Inspired by the audacity of the modernist mind the unit’s work aspires to reinstate the designer’s engagement with all aspects of our profession. Observation and re-examination of every aspect of current civilizatory development enables to project near future scenarios and positions the work as avant garde in the process of designing a comprehensive vision for the future. Societical, technological, cultural, economic as well as political developments propel the investigations with a deep understanding of how they interlink to shape strategies and astute synthesis to determine a design approach. We believe in the multi-objectivity of our design process, where the negotiation of the different objectives becomes a great source of architectural novelty and authorship. We will fight charlatanism with the aid of practical experimentation, scientific knowledge and technology. We find out about how human endeavour, deep desire and visionary thought interrelate as well as advance cultural and technological means while driving civilisation as a highly developed organisation. The underlying principle and observation of our investigations will be that futurist speculation inspires and ultimately brings about significant change. Supported by competent research the work is the search for modernist courage aiming to amplify found nuclei into imaginative tales with architectural visions fuelled by speculation.
