- Space Budget
The following spreadsheet shows my space budget, which identifies the functions and dimensions of all the programmed spaces in my proposed design.
- Building Design Layout
The following is a sketch diagram that shows the spaces in my proposed design with the connections between them as well as connections to exterior spaces.
- Building Model
an initial building model. This first model will have a very low level of detail (LOD 200), using generic walls to indicate the preliminary sizes and locations of the major programmed spaces (based on your space budget and building layout diagram). Include the:
- Exterior Walls — use generic walls to indicate the preliminary location of the exterior wall surfaces (don’t worry about modeling the windows, glazing features, and materials now -- you’ll do that next week in Module 7).
- Interior Walls — use generic walls to indicate the preliminary location of the interior wall surfaces (again, don’t worry about modeling the interior doors and architectural features -- you’ll do that in future weeks as you continue to design and refine your model).
- Building Cores and Circulation Elements — place stairs and generic walls to indicate:
- the preliminary locations of the building cores (stair and elevators shafts)
- circulation spaces (corridors and hallways)
- and utility spaces (public restrooms and mechanical rooms)
- Building Envelope Big Features
- Exterior Entrances and Exits — place doors to showing the access and egress locations.
- Exterior Terraces or Patios
- Exterior Stairs or Ramps
Based on the constructability of the center, I made several small changes on my model, ex. I delete the M style hollow in the middle of the main building. Following are some pictures of my model at current stage:
The half-sylinder and the hemisphere part are currently covered with the generic wall, since the glass is considered as an advanced material and can not be applied on the curve surface of a mass.
This is a glance at the location of interior walls, doors, and stairs at level2.
These are the floor plan view of level1, level2, and level3. Since I used all doule doors, their direction is not visible on this figure.
This is the space schedule of my center.
