  • Scottish Parliament Building Edinburgh, Scotland
    Scottish Parliament Building Client: Location: Edinburgh, Scotland Date: Typology: In 1998 EMBT won the bid to design the new Edinburgh Parliament building. The Architect: proposal generated great enthusiasm due to its organic capacity to combine existing Project directors: elements with new technologies through the contemporary and unique language of the Design team: Barcelona studio. The project’s development centered on reflecting the characteristics Gross floor area: of the country and its inhabitants via a new way of building that was directly linked to the land itself. This close tie to the site and its setting would, when the adjacent distillery is demolished, enable the generation of multiple perspective lines on the city. Intentionally, a contrast is sought, a conceptual distance, between the new construction and Holyrood Palace, the twelfth-century royal residence that has been renovated many times. Unlike the palace, which dominates the landscape, the new Scottish Parliament drops literally into the hillside terrain, the lowest part of Arthur’s Seat, and appears to sprout from the living stone. Client: The Scottish Executive Government Location: Edinburgh, Scotland Date: 2004 Typology: Civic Government, Landscape Architects: Enric Miralles, Benedetta Tagliabue in a joint venture with: RMJM Scotland LTD, M.A.H Duncan, T.B.

Ali2 1Urban Planning and Policy Department, University of Illinois, Chicago, IL 60607, USA 2School of Architecture, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Champaign, IL 61820, USA Abstract There is much architectural and engineering literature which discusses the virtues of exterior bracing and diagrid systems in regards to sustainability - two systems which generally reduce building materials, enhance structural performance, and decrease overall construction cost. By surveying past, present as well as possible future towers, this paper examines another attribute of these structural systems - the blend of structural functionality and aesthetics. Given the external nature of these structural systems, diagrids and exterior bracings can visually communicate the inherent structural logic of a building while also serving as a medium for artistic effect.

It inquires into a Hong Kong myth: How can minimum state intervention gather social resources to build collective urban form? Roughly around the MacLehose Era, Hong Kong began to consciously assume a new vertical order in urban restructuring in order to address the issue of over-crowding and social unrest. British modernist planning provided rich approaches and visions which were borrowed by Hong Kong to achieve its own planning goals. The new town plan and infrastructural development ii transformed Hong Kong from a colonial city concentrated on the Victoria Harbor to a multi-nucleated metropolitan area. The implementation of the R+P development model around 1980 deepened the intermingling between urban infrastructure and superstructure and extended the vertical urbanity to large interior spaces: the shopping centers.

  • New Structures Freyssinet.Co.Uk Apex, Ronald Ross Bio-Science Building
    New Structures Apex, Ronald Ross Bio-Science Building Liverpool The Ronald Ross Bio-Science Building, known as Apex during Architect Fairhurst Design Group construction, provides a new four storey research facility for the Faculty Structural Engineer of Medicine at the University of Liverpool. It incorporates specialist, highly AECOM serviced controlled laboratory environments to containment level 2 and 3. Main Contractor The facility accommodates 600 researchers who support the University’s Shepherd Construction health research into infectious diseases, cancer and digestive diseases. Frame Contractor The £90m development was funded by the University of Liverpool and the Heyrod Construction Higher Education Funding Council for England. Post-tensioning Freyssinet Limited The building design has achieved BREEAM ‘excellent’ status and incorporates many Works Completed energy saving measures to ensure the facility contributes to the carbon reduction September 2014 commitment made by the university. The development has been constructed in two phases and Freyssinet was involved in the larger (11,170m2) phase 2. The building sits opposite the new Royal Liverpool University Hospital, which was also constructed by a Heyrod-Freyssinet team. The floor plate of phase 2 measured 100 by 37m and the length was split in two by a permanent movement joint. In the laboratory areas the slabs are 400mm thick for a grid of 9.9 by 6.6m. The office areas have 250mm thick slabs for 6.0 by 5.7m column spacing. The design loading in both the laboratory and office areas is 5.0kN/m2 live and 3.3kN/m2 superimposed dead. The building is located at the junction of Crown Street and West Derby Street, where an acute angle on the site gives Apex its name and the building its principal feature.
