A CAMPUS TRANSFORMED

Designed around the theme of assembly and open debate, the Forum is a central part of the University of Exeter’s campus, forming a new, high profile front door to the university. The Forum project saw several structures built or refurbished and unified under a flowing gridshell roof. As well as unifying these buildings and hosting a dramatic new reception, the roof shelters a range of state-of-the-art teaching and discussion spaces. As a central feature of the Forum, the vision for the roof was to create an enclosed street that links all of the facilities. Engineered to increase the appeal of the university by providing world class facilities that attract the very best students and talent, this project is also exemplary in its energy efficiency. Despite an increase in the area of over 130%, the scheme only consumes 40% more energy than that previously used by the old library alone.

KEY FACTS: • State-of-the-art development of the University of Exeter’s campus • Connects several facilities under an extensive curved gridshell roof • Raised the status of the university on all major league tables; reaching 7th in ‘Good University Guide’ and awarded the Sunday Times ‘University of the Year 2012/13’ • The investment resulted in the university scoring very highly (85.7%) in the National Student Services Survey • Received 9 industry awards including RIBA National Award, Higher Education/Research Building of the Year at the prestigious World Festival in 2013, Civic Trust Award and Green Apple Award

The roof incorporates extensive acoustic absorption to allow for a wide variety of uses in the street space.

A real time digital auralisation demonstrated the acoustic environment to the client. This allowed them to hear the effects of issues such as heavy rain on the ETFE roof panels to a rock concert in the adjacent Great Hall.

A stunning new centrepiece… This remarkable new development will provide so many new facilities and opportunities for everyone associated with the University of Exeter for many years to come.”

CREATING A SENSE OF CONNECTION

Yale University’s new School of Management offers students 242,000ft2 of state-of-the-art classrooms, faculty offices, student and community spaces, a media library and a 350-seat auditorium. This magnificent building welcomed its first students in January 2014, providing them with excellent facilities and inspiring surroundings that are conducive to study, collaborative learning, interaction and the development of ideas.

KEY FACTS: • First consolidated home for the School of Management • Awarded Best New Building Over $100 Million by Structural Engineers Association of New York • Achieved LEED Gold standard for Sustainability • Teaching spaces support every style of learning and connect classrooms to the environment • Allows for expansion of school’s executive education program offering

EDWARD P. EVANS HALL | YALE UNIVERSITY, USA 19 Sector Portfolio

BuroHappold performed detailed structural fire engineering studies proving that the supporting columns of the intricate atrium structure could easily surpass fire resistance expectations from local building codes. With the majority of columns already passing fire resistance requirements without the need for additional applied fire proofing, we were able to achieve a high quality finish, along with reduced future maintenance requirements and also a significant cost saving - all without comprimising on safety.

Custom designed steel sleeve connections integrate the facade’s vertical elements with the floor’s structural steel. This allows the entire facade weight to hang from the roof, with the bottom support used only to resist wind and earthquake forces.

This creative approach, which minimises the size of the hanger elements, ensured that the design followed the architect’s vision for unobstructed views of the spacious courtyard.

Designed in BIM

A strikingly modern building, the design of the glass facade and large open courtyard creates a teaching and learning environment that enriches the Yale School of Management community.

To create a unifying effect, the building’s open layout allows people to see one another across the campus, creating a sense of connection.

To achieve this complex architectural vision, our team used cutting-edge BIM technology to design a system that uses structural steel to provide unobstructed views of the courtyard from the interior and of the uniquely shaped classroom pods from the exterior.

PASSIVE DESIGN STRATEGY ACTIVELY PAYS BACK

As one of the top business degree programs in the United States and an institution of leaders, Olin Business School set a challenging brief. This included a systems design approach for the building, with energy efficient measures and a minimum LEED Gold certification target.

KEY FACTS: • Features a 3-story, soaring glass atrium • Owner savings of $1M • Achieved LEED Gold Standard • Pioneering passively smoke vented atriums (one of the first in U.S.)

Thermal comfort

Daylighting analysis of the atrium verified the optimal frit pattern on the vertical glazing and skylight to create the balance between the amount of cooling required to meet thermal comfort conditions and passive solar heating.

Computational Fluid Dynamics Modeling of the atrium verified thermal comfort can be maintained with a displacement air system and radiant floor heating and cooling - these initiatives contributed to the project’s 20% overall energy savings over ASHRAE 90.1.

OLIN BUSINESS SCHOOL | WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY, ST. LOUIS, USA 29 Sector Portfolio BUROHAPPOLD ENGINEERING EDUCATION

An integrated design approach led to a successful design process for the atrium. BuroHappold modeling studies allowed the following opportunities to be validated and implemented:

CFD Modeling

Computational Fluid Dynamics Modeling was used to demonstrate a passive atrium smoke exhaust approach. The passive approach uses natural ventilation rather than mechanical equipment to purge smoke during a fire scenario.

Wind and temperature effects on the passive smoke management system were accounted for within each fire scenario modeled. The wind effects were established based upon data of the prevailing directions and speed for both a winter and summer condition for the St Louis area. A total of four environmental condition simulations were presented for each scenario.

The passive smoke model passed all requirements of the International Building Code and National Fire Protection Association and was accepted by the State Fire Marshall.

OLIN BUSINESS SCHOOL | WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY, ST. LOUIS, USA 30 Sector Portfolio BUROHAPPOLD ENGINEERING EDUCATION

Exit Modeling

The purpose of the smoke control system is to provide a tenable environment to enable evacuation of the building occupants.

Egress time is calculated to the point where occupants reach a place of relative safety and away from the effects of the fire i.e. last occupant crosses the boundary of the atrium into an egress stair or directly to the exterior.

Monkton Combe’s newly appointed Director of Music found their existing facility cold, undersized and uninspiring. The brief required an exceptional solution to create an outstanding new home for the school’s muscial future; a mixture of small practice rooms, a rehearsal hall for a full orchestra, multiple recording studios, storage space for instruments, offices and a teaching classroom, all to be housed within the footprint of the existing building.

KEY FACTS: • ‘Shattered’ timber panels scatter sound around the space • The David Bowerman Hall can be tailored to specific events • Mixed use of space inspiring creativity

Our cutting edge engineering solutions led the way for the inspirational architectural forms, allowing the functional to work in absolute harmony with the aesthetic.

MONKTON COMBE SCHOOL | BATH, UK 34 Sector Portfolio BUROHAPPOLD ENGINEERING EDUCATION

Our acoustics team led the architectural design and many aspects of their unique solutions are not only functional but also carry a strong architectural theme. This has resulted in visually inspiring rooms such as the David Bowerman Hall, where the walls and ceiling are clad with a distinctive ‘shattered’ pattern of timber panels that diffuse sound, giving the room a beautifully enveloping sound, as well as an inspiring appearance.

The more uneven and textured the surfaces, the more they will scatter sound. In the David Bowerman Hall we used many and varied angles for the wall panelling.

Variable Acoustics Electrically operated acoustic banners make it possible to tailor the room’s acoustics to specific events by optimising the balance between clarity and reverberance. The banners allow increased absorption of sound within the room, which returns less reflected sound - this may suit a rock concert scenario where a fuller, flatter sound is required, whilst a classical music event may require enhanced diffuse reflection for a more enveloping sound.

The results have been enthusiastically greeted by musicians and audiences.
