Constructing environment (journal 3) Cong weili 625634 In week 3 tutorial we visited four location in Melbourne uni. Firstly is about the ERC building.
./ Figure1 Figure2 figure 3 figure4 The figure 1 is about the connection which connect the ERC and beside building. The figure 2 is the basic material of the ERC. It is concrete. There have a space between every piece of concrete. It is used to the concrete expansion. This kind of space also appear on the floor like figure 3. In figure 4, there has timber column to support the glass which connects the two buildings. There have steel columns in ERC to support the roof of the connection. The ERC building is mass construction. It also has timber beam to connect this two buildings. The acoustic liner could absorb noise.

Figure 5 figure 6 figure 7 figure8 On the way the location 2, tutor introduce us these two buildings. The figure 5 shows us the glass wall. The columns support the weight and the glass does not supports anything. It just for the artistic. Figure 6 shows us the steel beams which support the weight. Figure 7 is about the MSLE building. It also connects the building which beside it. However, it is not like ERC. This two building are connected by the steel. The concrete beam supports the weight. There have zinc and steel form equipped on this building. In the following graph. It is shows us the timber beam t of the building. The board 1 is the timber boards which could support the beam 2. The 1 concrete beam connects these two buildings and supports the the eight. It is also the mass construction.
Figure9 figure 10 figure 11 Figure 9 is about the steel which supports the second floor of the building. It makes sure the concrete could fastness. The figure 10 is one kind of the concrete. However, it looks like the timber. Figure 11 is another building which has concrete form support the weight and the glass is just for the artistic.
Figure 12 figure 13 figure 14 Figure 12 is about the concrete foundation of the building. Figure 13 is location 3, the picture shows us the timber board which helps the concrete column to support the weight. It is also the mass construction.
Figure 5 figure 16 figure 17 figure 18 Figure 15 is the last location for our site visit. It is also connect two and it is mass construction. Figure 16 has the sun plate which produced by steel and absorb sunshine. The glass in figure 17 is strong. The glass is different from the figure 5 and figure 11. This kind of glass is very strong and it is support the weight of the building. It lets the sunshine into room.
