The Mass Tower We are required to make a tower that made my wood blocks.

The Tower should be including the window and the door which means we have to keep the space during the time when we built it!

Foundation Our group decided to make the shape as a circle because circle is very stable and we keep the side open for the door as image shows.

Process:

We uses structural as show on the sketching that the frame is able to support the weight on each block.

Additional, in order to close top of the tower we move each a little bit close to the central of the circle which shows on the sketch.

We perspective that the total feature of the tower will looks like a cone!

3

Problems: When we built the tower to the fifth floor we realize that the building is not as stable as we wish because if every blocks is directed to the central of the building and they will trend into the middle and falls down before we close the top.

Solution: We decrease the radius of the circle even the tower may become lower than before.

Challenge: We leave a hue space for the ‘door’ that makes us struggling to connect each side together.

Solution: One man added one block on each side and the other man have to support the tower otherwise it will falls down.

Finishing: After we connect the both side together there is nothing struggling for the process until we saw the project built by other group which is taller than us.

As the image shows we add two blocks each and cross together which is able to increase the height of the tower but less weight occur.

4

Testing: After all we tried to make a window at the other side of the tower.

Initially, we tired to move one block in the middle out and find that there is not any effect for the stablish.

We move the block one by one until the ‘window’ touch the ground.

It looks like the building support by the three fulcrum and it is able to make the project stable.

Balsa Tower Main Material: Balsa Wood Task : Cut the Balsa Wood into 20-40 pice by the cutting knife then connecting those balsa wood to build up a frame in order to make a tower as high as possible.

Preparation: In order to cut those Balsa in the same size and as much as possible, i mark both side of the wood and the width is 2.5mm each.

Hardship: I dont have any equipment to hold the wood and the rule the is not long enough so that it is hard to cut them in the same size.

Some of them is not able to make the frame which can br seen from the image.

Finally, there are 29 pieces of Bolsa wood are able to make the project.

7

Starting: We plan to make four rectangle grame at first and there is a piece of wood across it which able absorb more compression force from the frame.

We tried to uses Pva to stick each pieces of Balsa together, however, we find that it is not strong enough so we decide to use te tape to cover the connection point which can make it stronger.

Improving: By follow the suggestion from the tutor, we added another piece of wood cross the frame.

8

Processingďźš We realize to make that trangle base is stable and abl to save a lot of time so we change our planning.

We put three frame together but the three connection are not in the same level so we cut some extra Bolsa.

The basement is really stable so we decide to put another triangle on the basement and it looks so far so good.

BY the success we have, we put a convert triangle frame on it and the game which is anti Physical Law Makes us almost give up.

9

The only chance to increasing the height of the project si put single piece of he wood.

Moreover, we have to use another piece of wood to hold the one which almost broken.

Even we put one on the basement in order to make it keep standing on the ground Testing: We slowly break every pieces of Balsa we can destroy expect the three main pieces of wood and the one connect in the middle..

Lecture 3 Olympic Constructs —Alan Pert 2012cOlympic Park was development “brownfield” area of London _Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park Landscape Stadium: Fabric structural

in

a

Activity Lot 6 Cafe The building is a typical concrete structure with column frame and concrete frame elements, moreover it is supported by bricks columns.

The footing of the building might be the shallow footings.

The main material uses is concrete, bricks and glasses.

The concrete frame system is stable so that it is able to leave big area for enclosing elements as glass that enough sunshine will come into the building.

12

Underground carpark & South Lawn The first interesting things we find that is the trees are related to the building.

The ceiling of the entrance uses kind of lattice concrete frame which is much stronger than original one.

Moreover the material i think is pre-caste concrete.

The car park is supported by some curve concrete column tht makes those column can be supported the fore from the top uniformly. In addition, the shape is not only stable but leave more space for parking .

13

Stairs on west end of Union House

The Stairs is totally metal frame work.

In order to make a stair in limit area, the builder decide to material as metal because is strong and light.

There are three supporting points on the ground and building, moreover, some beams are supported by some cables in for keep the stairs stale.

Triangle is a really stable shape that is why they use it.

14

North court Union House It is a fabric system and the material it use is kind of fabric material which is water proofing.

The Fabric is supported by some cables in the middle and some cables at the edge of the fabric that connect tot the column stand on the side insert to the ground. I think all of those cables are supported tension force and columns will be pulled by force.

The aim of the building is provide a place that no raining and having enough sunshine. Obviously, traditional housing are not able to provide such place for students. Moreover, the cost of the building is also less normal construction work.

15

Beaurepaire Centre Pool From the image e can clearly find that the building is frame work. There are some long curve beam support the ceiling of the building. And this kind of system usually used for open large area such as stadium.

The main material it use is concrete, timber, steel and glass.

16

Oval Pavilion It is the bricks frame system, that the building is old and not such big so that the designer decided to use brick as the main material to build it.

From the top of the wall we can find the arrange of bricks are different because bricks arrange in vertical could support more vertical force.

17

New Melbourne construction

School

of

design

under

It is new building of the school and the it is be built as steel frame system and material it use is various but it should br including steel, reinforce concrete, glasses and timber.

The most interesting structural elements of this building is the cantilever system. The force is support at the building touch the ground.

The foundation of the building i think it should be deep foundations because of its special construction system, the foundation should be very strong.

The joins is fixed joints mostly and those metal expressed outside will be remove later.

18

Old Geology South Lecture Theatre Entry Structure

The same as New Melbourne School of design, the entry structure is a cantilever structure and it is made of concrete and bricks. The Two column can hold the whole building by tenson force.

19

Frank Tate Pavillion Obviously, it is a cantilever structure as well, however, the material it use is different which is timber mostly which means the force it can take is not as much as steel frame. So it uses two more columns to keep the structure more stable.

The designer did not decide to use other materials might hope to relate the circumstance of the garden and the pool.

Glossary: Moment: strip footing: Retaining Wall: Slab on ground: Pad Footing: Substructure

20

Glossary: Moment: In physics, moment relates to the perpendicular distance from a point to a line or a surface, and is derived from the mathematical concept of moments.[1] It is frequently used in combination with other physical quantities as in moment of inertia, moment of force, moment of momentum, magnetic moment and so on.(wiki) Strip footing: A Strip Footing is a relatively small strip of concrete placed into a trench and reinforced with steel. The footing supports the load of the exterior walls and any interior wall that is load bearing or supports a slab such as for a bathroom. Strip footings can be used for both traditional timber and concrete floors. They are one of the most common footings used in Australia.

Retaining Wall: Retaining walls are structures designed to restrain soil to unnatural slopes. They are used to bound soils between two different elevations often in areas of terrain possessing undesirable slopes or in areas where the landscape needs to be shaped severely and engineered for more specific purposes like hillside farming or roadway overpasses.(wiki) Slab on ground: A shallow foundation is a type of foundation which transfers building loads to the earth very near the surface, rather than to a subsurface layer or a range of depths as does a deep foundation. Shallow foundations include spread footing foundations, mat-slab foundations, slab-on-grade foundations, pad foundations, rubble trench foundations and earthbag foundations.(wiki) Pad Footing: A concrete pad footing is the simplest and cost effective footing used for the vertical support and the transfer of building loads to the ground. These footings are "isolated" i.e. there is no connection between them. They are also reinforced.

Activity on Week 4

The scale is one of the most important elements of the construction documentation.

The first construction documentation is the scale of 1:250 which shows the bird view of the whole structure. It shows that the scale can compress the size of the paper which is easy for people to view the whole structure.

The second one the is scale of 1:5 which shows some details of the structure.Because the size is small and it is more relate to the true size so that people can get more accurate information on small scale documentation.

23

The annotation of on the side of the construction documentation is also very important .The first image shows that those annotation provide who response for the the designing and what is the scale, date and so on.

The second annotation provide the description of those material Abbrev. Which help us to get more information from the documentation.

Glossary: Joistďźšjoist is one of the horizontal supporting members that run between foundations, walls, or beams to support a ceiling or floor. They may be made of wood, engineered wood, steel, or concrete. Typically, a beam is bigger than a joist and joists are often supported by beams laid out in repetitive patterns.(wiki) Girder: A girder is a support beam used in construction.[1] Girders often have an I-beam cross section for strength, but may also have a box shape, Z shape or other forms. Girder is the term used to denote the main horizontal support of a structure which supports smaller beams. A girder is commonly used many times in the building of bridges, and planes.(wiki) Steel Decking: Steel decking lies atop joists, interlocking to create a light, strong, virtually maintenance-free deck surface. You can compare two types of aluminum decking, Lock-Dry and NextDeck decking, made by FSI Home Products in Cullman, Alabama.

Concrete Plank: Concrete plank are used in a wide range of buildings as floor/roof components. The precast concrete slabs are cut to length for each project.

Hollowcore is frequently used in residential, commercial, industrial, institutional and other applications.(wiki) Span:

a section between two intermediate supports(wiki)

Spacingďźšspacing is supporting elements depends on the spacing capabilities of the supported elements.

Activity Model Making The part we decide to make is the kitchen and plant room of the building. The structure got two levels and the level one is concrete frame system but the second floor is the timer frame system.

Before we start to make the model, we draw the structure of the part at first and analysis what materials and tools we should use.

27

Finally , we decided to use cardboard and balsa to make the model .Furthermore, we use cut knife, Pva glue ruler and pen to help us finish the model.

Firstly, we measure the dimension of those materials and plan how to uses them more efficiently.

However, we find that those material are not enough to make the model in 1:20. So we decide to make the model in 1:40.

We measure and cut materials into pieces we need.

For lack of materials we think that Balsa would be the wall for this property.

The double wall we use can make the structure more stable.

28

After that the firs floor is finished by cover the cardboard.

At the second floor, we plan to build the back wall and side wall at first, and we uses some columns to keep the back wall stable, in addition, two cardboard strips connect walls and the ground of the second which take compression force.

The roof structure is different from the first floor because there is no double walls to support the cardboard and it should be supported by several balsa timber columns, however the time is nearly running out so that we decide to uses a piece of balsa ti support the roof.

29

Glossary Stud: a vertical member in construction Axial Load: Axial loading is defined as a structural frame system that is a combination of primarily vertical and horizontal members that are designed to transmit applied loads to the ground. An axial load is termed as a force with its resultant passing through the centroid of a particular section and being perpendicular to the plane of the section. In short, an axial load creates a force parallel to the axis of an object.

Nogging: term used for the filling in-between wall framing in buildings(wiki) Bucking:In practice, buckling is characterized by a sudden failure of a structural member subjected to high compressive stress, where the actual compressive stress at the point of failure is less than the ultimate compressive stresses that the material is capable of withstanding.(wiki) Lintel: A lintel can be a load-bearing building component, a decorative architectural element, or a combined ornamented structural item. It is often found over portals, doors, windows, and fireplaces.(wiki) Seasoned Timber: drying, to adjust the moisture so the timber is appropriate for the intended use

30

Workshop

In the workshop each group will design and construct a structure that must 10000mm. And the maximum height if the structure will be advised before you commence structure.

Each group have different materials and what we have is two piece of timber and one piece of plywood.

Because of the property of those woods, our group decide to use timber as the main material of the frame work, and the plywood will cover the bridge on the top.

We plan to made two separate bridge frame and connect them by the plywood. So that the force from the machine will transfer to the four footings.

31

During the process we overcome a lot of difficulties such as how to saw the timber as fast as possible and the type of joints we used. Of course, we choice fixed joints which is more stable than others.

Before we saw the machine we don't know how to testing this stability of the structure and we don't know there are just the side of the the structure can attach the ground. So we added more supporting on the structure.

The teacher said it should be works well, however it experiences catastrophic failure very quickly.

The reason is there is a knots on our timber, and it break follow slope of grain.

That emphasis that how important the quality of the material is even they looks similar.

Activity: In this tutorial we present on the model making we did last week and the full size presentation.

The model making other groups did are mostly stairs structure and the main material they use is cardboard. From the model we can clearly find that how those stairs be supported. There are few concrete wall under the stairs which support the weight of stairs.

From the site visit presentation we also get a lot of information that we did not get from our site visit.

Which meas different construction plant got different structure frame and different way slove the problem.

34

The topography of the Newport is a flat land which can build the footing system at first which is different from the Edge water. Before they build the hosing they have to use formatube to avoid the soil to move and build the retaining wall for the same reason.

Moreover, the structure of the building in Newport is the timber frame work but for the building od the Edge Water they use steel which is steel structure to build the first floor. I think it is affected by the cost of the whole construction.

35

Glossary Rafter: A type of beam that supports the roof of a building. In home construction rafters are typically made of wood. Exposed rafters can be a feature of traditional roof styles.(wiki) Eave: The eave is the bottom edge of a roof. The eaves normally project beyond the side of the building forming an overhang to throw water clear of the walls and may be highly decorated as part of an architectural style such as the Chinese dougong bracket systems.(wiki) Purlin: In architecture, structural engineering or building, a purlin (or historically purline, purloyne, purling, perling) is any longitudinal, horizontal, structural member in a roof except a type of framing with what is called a crown plate. In traditional Timber framing there are three basic types of purlin: purlin plate, principal purlin and common purlin.(wiki) Alloy: An alloy is a mixture or solid solution composed of a metal and another element.(wiki) Cantilever: A cantilever is a beam anchored at only one end.(wiki) Soffit: the underside of a ceiling to fill the space above the kitchen cabinets, at the corner of the ceiling and wall Portal Frame: Portal frame construction is a method of building and designing structures, primarily using steel or steel-reinforced precast concrete although they can also be constructed using laminated timber such as glulam. (wiki) Top Chord: The top beams in a truss are called top chords and are generally incompression, the bottom beams are called bottom chords and are generally in tension, the interior beams are called webs, and the areas inside the webs are called panels.(wiki)

Glossary: Drip: Dripping liquid Vapour barrier: A vapor barrier (or vapour barrier) is any material used for damp proofing, typically a plastic or foil sheet, that resists diffusion of moisture through wall, ceiling and floor assemblies of buildings and of packaging. Technically, many of these materials are only vapor retarders as they have varying degrees of permeability.(wiki) Gutter: a narrow trough or duct which collects rainwater from the roof of a building and diverts it away from the structure, typically into a drain.

Parapet: A parapet is a barrier which is an extension of the wall at the edge of a roof, terrace, balcony, walkway or other structure. Where extending above a roof, it may simply be the portion of an exterior wall that continues above the line of the roof surface, or may be a continuation of a vertical feature beneath the roof such as a fire wall or party wall.[1] Parapets were originally used to defend buildings from military attack, but today they are primarily used as guard rails and to prevent the spread of fires.(wiki)

Flashing: Flashing refers to thin pieces of impervious material installed to prevent the passage of water into a structure from a joint or as part of a weather resistant barrier (WRB) system.(wiki)

Insulation: reduce the rate of something else Sealant: A sealant may be viscous material that has little or no flow characteristics and stay where they are applied or thin and runny so as to allow it to penetrate the substrate by means of capillary action.

Activity: Each student will br allocated a 1:5 detail from the Oval Pavillon construction documentation set.

The detail i get is the roof structure of the function room and it is located at the middle of the building.

Then walk to the Oval Pavillion ad located my detail.

Because it is hard to see my detail in the actual building so i decide to take some photo with those location having similar frame system and material.

The structure shows from the picture is timer frame structure and the material it use mostly is timber.

However, for insulation noisy and heat, it should be some insulation materials inside the wall such thermal insulation and acoustic insulation materials.

40

When we come into the function room we can clear see the wall is made by plasterboard and from the details it shows it is double impact and fire resistant plasterboard.

The ceiling above is made both acoustic insulation and thermal insulation which can keep the room in a comfort temperature and without noisy.

After we back to the class we start to draw the 1:1 detail. Because the detail we have is compression to 1:10 so we have to measure the dimension and them times 10 on every numbers.

Glossary Window Sash: A sash window or hung sash window is made of one or more movable panels or "sashes" that form a frame to hold panes of glass, which are often separated from other panes (or "lights") by narrowmuntins.(wiki) Deflection: he displacement of a structural element under load Moment of Inertia: Moment of inertia is the mass property of a rigid body that defines the torque needed for a desired angular acceleration about an axis of rotation.(wiki) Door furniture: Door furniture (British and Australian English) or door hardware (North American English) refers to any of the items that are attached to a door or a drawer to enhance its functionality or appearance. (wiki) Stress: In continuum mechanics, stress is a physical quantity that expresses the internal forces that neighboring particles of a continuous material exert on each other.(wiki) Shear Force: A shear stress, denoted (Greek: tau), is defined as the component of stress coplanar with a material cross section. Shear stress arises from the force vector component parallel to the cross section.(wiki)

Activity: Off Campus The off campus is located at west Melbourne at the building is used for residential as apartment. The building is totally in 8 levels including 2 for basement. The main structure of the building is concrete frame.

At the second floor there are some yellow metal columns is used for built the wall to separate rooms indifferent function which is the same as timber we saw before.

The concrete slabs is used for water proofing, The left side is in side of the room and the right side is balcony so it has to do some waterproof working.

44

When er arriving at the bath room we can find those massive tubes which including gas, water, electronic, From the image we can see the different between hot water tube and electrical line.

They have different safeguard procedures to protect them.

On the ither floor the concrete slab have just been put on so that they have to use some tools to support the slab. The manager said that every vertical walls and columns are pre-cast concrete so that we can find the touch point is not natural.

45

If we close to the concrete we can find the whole ceiling is made by several square concrete slabs, moreover there some whole on the slabs which is used for more those concrete easily.

This part of the concrete is still wet and the manger said it is used for testing the strength of concrete.

They put the metal stick into the whole and start to insert concrete until the concrete on the metal stick arrive the place they need which means the strength of the concrete is suit.

46

We are arriving at the basement of the building and i realize the material they use for build the ceiling is not concrete but piece if mental. The answer i get from the manger is it is for save money, because they have to control the cost it will spend and the don't think it looks any different.

Glossary:

Sandwich Panel: Aluminium composite panel (ACP) also aluminium composite material, (ACM) is a type of flat panel that consists of two thin aluminium sheets bonded to a non-aluminium core. ACPs are frequently used for external cladding or facades of buildings, insulation, and signage.(wki)

Bending: In Applied mechanics, bending (also known as flexure) characterizes the behavior of a slender structural element subjected to an external load applied perpendicularly to a longitudinal axis of the element.(wiki)

Composite: composite material,a material that is made from several different substances

Cornice: A cornice (from the Italian cornice meaning "ledge") is generally any horizontal decorative molding that crowns a building or furniture element— the cornice over a door or window, for instance, or the cornice around the top edge of a pedestal or along the top of an interior wall. A simple cornice may be formed just with a crown molding.(wiki)

During the site visit we go to the Oval Pavilion again and this time is only for outside viewing. The image shows two timber structure building but the arrangement of timber are different.

I also look at the window structure system which is also supported b the timber structure.

50

The water proofing of my detail is the flashing on the top of the roof and at the connection between Fascia and the flashing is a water proof structure which is called over lap.

Glossary Shear Wall: In structural engineering, a shear wall is a structural system composed of braced panels (also known as shear panels) to counter the effects of lateral load acting on a structure.(wiki) Soft Story: A soft story building is a multi-storey building in which one or more floors have windows, wide doors, large unobstructed commercial spaces, or other openings in places where a shear wall would normally be required for stability as a matter of earthquake engineering design. (wiki) Braced Frame: A Braced Frame is a structural system which is designed primarily to resist wind and earthquake forces. Members in a braced frame are designed to work in tension and compression, similar to a truss. Braced frames are almost always composed of steel members.(wiki) Fascia: Fascia is an architectural term for a frieze or band running horizontally and situated vertically under a roof edge, or which forms the outer surface of a cornice, visible to an observer. Typically consisting of a wooden board or sheet metal.(wiki) Corrosion: Corrosion is the gradual destruction of materials (usually metals) by chemical reaction with its environment.(wiki) IEQ: Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ) is most simply described as the conditions inside a building.
