Can circulation systems become the pattern?

Can the pattern be highlighted with structure?

Can the structure reflect the pattern’s form and in turn cause sunshadows to develop in the interior spaces?

Alternative 4 – Option 3 Structural Proposal

Alternative 4

Structurally very dynamic, yet repetition aids in cutting construction costs

Cable-stayed system requires deep pile foundation 2nd and 3rd floor cantilever hanging over cliff:

require temporary platform for efficient construction of the exterior wall

Design still young; construction input in structure/materials/method can possibly drive cost and schedule down

PROS CONS

•Dynamic, radial, curvilinear, sun pattern•Semi-regular bays sizes and layout•Easier to construct (regular layout, little welding)

•Most flexible puzzle piece parti•material-functional block relationships•Braced frames have dual purpose of “backing” cantilevers & lateral load support

•Most dynamic interior spaces (auditorium), sunpatterns, shadowplay•Structure integrated with architecture

•Design speaks to engineering and structure•Extremely interesting structural system•Regular structural patterns – many common components throughout

•Cantilevered walkway over atrium susceptible to vibration and imposes large moments in connecting column•Costly atrium space

•May not challenge engineer•Long cantilevers may be susceptible to vibration problems•No economies of scale with so many materials

•Circulation undeveloped•Very irregular layout resulting in a large number of angled connections •Expensive to construct (curved walls, angled connections)

•No relationship to site or context, lack of spatial variation creating architectural limitations•Exceeds height limit and footprint (under review)•Deep piles require lots of time & money, large overhanging portion

Team Process – Iteration Examples Alternative 1 A->E->C->A->E->C

Predetermined, old architectural drawings redesigned

Alternative 2 A->E->C Developed architecturally but needs more structural and construction advice due to issues of

constructability

Alternative 3 A->E->C->E->A->C Redesign of Alternative 1 E&C advised architect against irregular, oblique layout

Expensive, angled connections A challenges E&C to integrate their systems into the architecture (e.g. exposed structural

system)

Alternative 4 E->A->C->A->E->C Design started with engineer

Team Dynamics INTERACTION WITH OWNER:

Very understanding, sensitive, & informative b/c has engineering

Encouraging of ideas outside original scope

INTERACTION WITH TEAM: Initial lack of conceptual understanding of each

others’ fields and roles Challenge to meet new expectations for next semester

by being informative and understanding of different expectations and considerations in the design process

Challenge to be more communicative and outspoken during the design process

Consideration of Alternative 4 Redesign as Final Solution:

CCAA

EE

Challenging Structural Design Feasible in Time and Cost for

Construction without current considerations for material

Architecturally lacks spatial concept and connection to context

CONCLUSION

Considering a fifth alternative

that can challenge all fields equally
