Delivering Major Crown Projects Long Term Vision and Plan for the Parliamentary Precinct November 2014 Long Term Vision and Plan The main focus of the LTVP is the rehabilitation of the Centre, West and East Blocks. Major Crown Projects is responsible for the implementation of these projects. In order to empty the Centre Block of all occupants and functions, a series of projects to create permanent and interim accommodation have been undertaken. 2 2016 2018 2018 2018 Valour Building (151 Sparks) Valour Building (151 Sparks) Édifice La Bravoure Long Term Vision and Plan Developed in 2001 and updated in 2007 and 2013. A guide for change for the Parliamentary Precinct and for future designers and decision makers. The LTVP is comprised of three components: 1. The Vision and Principles 2. The Demonstration Plan 3. The Implementation framework – approvals sought for rolling 5 year programs of work Implementation has three components: Major Capital Program – focus of this presentation Recapitalization Program Planning Program 4 1,127,260 ? Number of interior bricks laid, West Block 5 LTVP implementation The 5-year rolling plan provides: • Flexibility in responding to government priorities, and • More accuracy in developing functional requirements and establishing project costs and schedules. The opportunity to construct four committee rooms in the former Canadian Museum of Contemporary Photography allowed the West Block to begin construction 4 years early. 6 Flexibility Another opportunity led to the revision of the LTVP.

The unique scope, objective, and timeline for each model required an in-depth analysis to select the appropriate classification for Level of Detail (LOD) and Level of Accuracy (LOA). With each project, the refinement of modelling practices and workflows evolved, culminating in one of our most complex and challenging projects — the Library of Parliament BIM. The purpose of this paper is to share ideas and lessons learned for the intricate challenges that emerge when using LOD and LOA classifications including trade-offs between model performance, tolerances, and anticipated BIM use. In addition, we will evaluate how these decisions effected managing the digitization, data processing, data synthesis, and visualisation of the models. 1. OVERVIEW monument.

  • Ottawa, Ontario West Block Parliament Hill HERITAGE CHARACTER

    Ottawa, Ontario West Block Parliament Hill HERITAGE CHARACTER

    Ottawa, Ontario West Block Parliament Hill HERITAGE CHARACTER STATEMENT The West Block was built in 1859-65 to the designs of Thomas Stent and Augustus Laver, architects. New wings designed by the Department of Public Works were added in 1874-78 and 1906-09, and major interior renovations designed by Mathers & Haldenby of Toronto were carried out in 1961-65. Public Works and Government Services Canada is the custodian department. See FHBRO Building Report 86-52. Reason for Designation The West Block was designated Classified because of its exceptional importance in terms of historical associations, architectural quality and environmental impact. Designed to accommodate the civil service, the West Block is directly associated with the substantial role played by the administrative arm of the federal government during the country's formative years. Together with the 1859-65 wings of the East block, and the Library of Parliament, the West Block ranks with the best mid-19th century Gothic Revival buildings in the world. The product of three separate building campaigns, it presents an essay in the evolution of the Gothic Revival style from mid-19th century to the early 20th century. In addition to being a national landmark in its own right, the West Block plays a critical role in establishing the overall character of Parliament Hill and strongly influences the character of the west end of Wellington Street. Character Defining Elements The heritage character of the West Block resides in its picturesque massing, footprint, structural ornament, finish materials, and in surviving portions of the 19th and early 20th century interior plans, features and finishes.

AR applications have been used in museums and gallery exhibitions and virtual reconstructions of historic interiors. However, the circumstances of an outdoor environment can be problematic. This paper presents a methodology to develop immersive AR applications based on the recognition of outdoor buildings. To demonstrate this methodology, a case study focused on the Parliament Buildings National Historic Site in Ottawa, Canada has been conducted. The site is currently undergoing a multiyear rehabilitation program that will make access to parts of this national monument inaccessible to the public. AR experiences, including simulated photo merging of historic and present content, are proposed as one tool that can enrich the Parliament Hill visit during the rehabilitation. Outdoor AR experiences are limited by factors, such as variable lighting (and shadows) conditions, caused by changes in the environment (objects height and orientation, obstructions, occlusions), the weather, and the time of day.

During the renovations, architects looked at every conceivable angle to modernize the facility while also maintaining the building’s historical integrity. “The West Block was last renovated over 50 years ago,’’ said Georges Drolet, a partner in EVOQ and an architectural historian. The fi rm formed a joint ventured partnership in 1995 with Architecture 49 to plan and design the West Block Rehabilitation Project. “In that time span, all the expectations and standards of operating and working in a parliamentary offi ce building changed, from security concerns to Photo: Heather + Little communications networks, energy effi ciency targets, hazardous materials management, universal accessibility standards, broadcasting and public engagement programs and so on.” One of the most fascinating and unique projects in the overhaul of West Block was a complete roof overhaul.

  • West Block Restoration

    West Block Restoration

    ™ The Canadian Parliament Buildings - Ottawa, Canada West Block Restoration Cintec West Block Restoration The West Block was constructed between 1860 and 1865. In 1897 the building was damaged by fire. The West Block is one of the three buildings on Parliament Hill in Ottawa, Ontario that forms the Parliamentary precinct. The West Block after renovation now houses offices for Parliamentarians, a branch of the Library of Parliament, committee rooms, and some preserved pre-Confederation spaces, which are used for some state occasions. All Canadian laws now originate here. The world has changed radically since the Parliament Buildings were completed. The stone buildings, although repaired over the years, had begun to deteriorate. Cintec first started work on the west block in 1994 when Cintec reinforcement anchors were installed in the south west tower by Public Works based at Plouffe Park Ottawa. Since then, the West Block has been fully restored and modernized. This is a write up of our involvement in the restoration of the West Block. ©Cintec Worldwide ™ The Canadian Parliament Buildings - Ottawa, Canada An $863 million project to completely renovate the West Block began in 2011, and the renovated building opened on 28 January 2019. Major repair and restoration work has been carried out to ensure that these historic buildings continue to serve Canadians for many years to come. The restoration of the West Block of Parliament is one of the largest rehabilitation projects in North America. The 19th-century building was completely modernized with state-of-the-art facilities, while the heritage and character-defining elements were preserved with the utmost respect and sensitivity.
