Four-stage tower with thin clasping buttresses, regular string courses, and octagonal pinnacles that seem to be an early c19 attempt to catch the style of the original c17 church. The spire too has an odd feature in the roll mouldings of the arrises. Beyond the green gabled projections of Drew’s chapter house [Thomas Drew] and vestry – the latter on the site of the original s porch [this statement appears not to be accurate] – the s aisle of 1628 takes over, with late Gothic windows and curious quasi-classical buttresses. The windows are in groups of four lights, cusped, and set within a shallow segmental arch with a segmental hood mould above.

  • National Best Practices Manual for Building High Performance Schools
    DAYLIGHTING AND WINDOWS Daylighting forms the cornerstone of resource efficient, high performance design for schools. Affecting individuals on both conscious and subconscious levels, it provides light to see the work environment, a natural rhythm that determines the cycles of days and seasons, and biological stimulation for hormones that regulate body systems and moods. In addition, it offers opportunities for natural ventilation and, if properly integrated with the electric lighting system, can provide tremendous energy savings. The Gentle, diffuse daylight permeates a classroom with both advantages of daylighting translate to higher sidelight and toplight. Note that all surfaces are painted performance in schools. Research has shown that white to distribute light more efficiently and reduce contrast glare. NREL/PIX 11392 children achieve significantly higher test scores in classrooms that are daylit than in those that are not,1 making daylighting one of the best building-related investments for the learning environment. This chapter provides an overview of daylighting and fenestration design. It also presents eight daylighting guidelines for specific sidelighting and toplighting schemes. View Windows (Guideline DL1) High Sidelighting—Clerestory (Guideline DL2) High Sidelighting—Clerestory with Light Shelf or Louvers (Guideline DL3) Classroom Daylighting—Wall Wash Toplighting (Guideline DL4) Central Toplighting (Guideline DL5) Patterned Toplighting (Guideline DL6) Linear Toplighting (Guideline DL7) Tubular Skylights (Guideline DL8) To fully daylight most spaces, the guidelines should be combined with each other or repeated as a pattern across the space. For example, Wall Wash Toplighting (Guideline DL4) on an interior wall could be combined with High Clerestory Sidelighting (Guideline DL2) and View Windows (Guideline DL1) on an 1 Heschong Mahone Group, “Daylighting in Schools—An Investigation into the Relationship between Daylighting and Human Performance,” prepared for Pacific Gas & Electric Company and funded by California utility customers, 1999.

  • Magazine Roof Trusses Have Been Specified for Educational Buildings for a Half Century, but They Were Often Concealed by Suspended Or Hanging Ceilings in the Past
    GracefulGracefulGraceful LLLaminatedaminatedaminated TTTimbersimbersimbers EnhanceEnhanceEnhance LibraryLibraryLibraryCopyright InteriorsInteriorsInteriors © STRUCTURE Laminated timbermagazine roof trusses have been specified for educational buildings for a half century, but they were often concealed by suspended or hanging ceilings in the past. Today, many architects are deliberately leaving the big trusses exposed because of their warmth and aesthetic appeal. For new libraries, many designs are incorporating these concepts to provide a warmer environment for study, reading and research. Architects and engineers have a choice of many different materials for roof systems in institutional and commercial buildings. Exposed timber beams and trusses are often specified because of wood's strength, competitive cost, and warm appearance. Four new libraries have been designed with laminated wood beams and laminated roof decking for their aesthetic appeal, and to avoid the expense of suspending or hanging ceilings to cover structural framework. The furring, sheathing and finishing often required with steel or other structural materials is eliminated, which means faster construction at lower cost with wood. And unlike steel, concrete or other materials that deplete natural resources, wood is renewable with 6 million trees planted each day in the U.S. Today's light, graceful library structures are a far cry from the past when many libraries were built like fortresses with heavy concrete columns and dark, gloomy interiors. 1 of 6 STRUCTURE • March 2003 “People come to libraries seeking knowledge, entertainment and stimulation. Upon entering the recently completed Beaverton City Library in Beaverton, Oregon, it becomes immediately apparent that all of these things and much more are available inside. Funded through a local voter- approved bond measure, the new facility replaced the city’s old library which had been located in an overly cramped converted 20,000 square foot supermarket.

  • Architectural Patterns
    Architectural Patterns Architectural Patterns Roanoke’s houses and their respective patterns reflect the periods of development and the changing tastes and livelihoods of the residents who built them. The following section helps homeowners and builders recognize Roanoke’s residential architecture patterns by identifying the key components of each form. Character-defining features of each pattern are examined with attention to massing, roof forms, wall cladding, porches, doors, and windows. Architectural details are illustrated with graphics and photographs of Roanoke houses. With a little practice, anyone can recognize these elements that typify the houses and neighborhoods of Roanoke. The architectural patterns discussed in the Pattern Book are not exclusive to Roanoke. They are found in cities across the United States. An ability to recognize the repeating architectural patterns that link a house to its neighborhood, and its place in the city’s development, enables people to appreciate a house’s history and architectural character, and make informed decisions regarding renovation, additions and new construction in a specific neighborhood. For example, the Downtown urban core is rich in Queen Anne and Colonial Revival, while the later Traditional neighborhoods feature Tudor Revival, Bungalow, and Foursquare houses. The Ranch houses and continuing styles of Colonial Revival reflect the Post-World II Suburban neighborhoods. The matrix on the following page will help you identify which architectural patterns are typically found in each neighborhood classification. (To determine your neighborhood’s classification, please refer to Neighborhood Patterns.) Stylistic Mixtures In a region like the Roanoke Valley, stylistic categories can become blurred. While many houses in Roanoke have been built in distinct, recognizable architectural styles, other houses have multiple characteristics, and do not fit neatly into one category.

  • A Guide for Making and Using Demonstration Models for Heliodons
    A Guide for Making and Using Demonstration Models for Heliodons By Norbert Lechner, Prof. Emeritus and Architect [email protected] INTRODUCTION Heliodons are powerful tools for creating solar responsive designs. They can be used to teach solar geometry, to teach solar strategies, to analyze designs, to create designs, and for presentations where the effectiveness of solar designs can be objectively demonstrated. The purpose of this guide is to help in the production and use of models for teaching solar strategies such as building orientation, building form, window placement and shape, shading devices, solar access, tree placement, and sundial design. In the following discussion, each model will be described first in regard to its construction (Part A) and then how it can be used to demonstrate solar strategies (Part B). PART A: CONSTRUCTION OF MODELS 1. The Base Building Model The base building model will be used to demonstrate various shading and passive solar strategies. Figure 1 shows the base model along with various attachments. The drawings in Appendix A show recommended dimensions which make the base model small enough so that heliodon distortions are minimized yet large enough so that a group of about 15 people can easily see the model demonstrated on the heliodon. Figure 1 2. The Adjustable Overhang Roof Attachment Figure 2 shows the “adjustable overhang roof attachment” on the base model. The construction drawings are shown in Appendix B, and Appendix C shows the two overhang inserts that slide easily back and forth in the roof channels. Also make sure that the projections on the underside of the roof attachment fit easily into the top of the base model for stability.

  • A Day in the Loft
    A Day in the Loft Well maybe not every one’s idea of fun. Climbing up and down narrow spiral staircases, along dark, windowless passages and brushing through dusty old cobwebs, plus maybe some new and occupied ones. But for me the prospect of exploring the roof spaces of Tewkesbury Abbey was thrilling. When the day came my guide, John, and I were suitably wrapped up. The Abbey was warm but we knew the roof spaces would not be. It was late November and a wet and chilly day. On our exploration there would be small doors giving access to the outside world and tantalising glimpses of surrounding countryside and the exterior surfaces of the roofs but with this weather the walkways would be far too slippery to venture out. Some of the access corridors would be quite narrow so thick coats were not going to help but still we needed to keep warm! One of the surprises for a first time visitor, like me, is to see the high-tech electronics driving the wonderful LED lighting system in the Abbey. Installed in 2014, with a new sound system and both largely paid for by the Friends of Tewkesbury Abbey, this lighting we’ve left behind makes the spaces we were to spend the next Fig.1 The north triforium hours in seem even darker. Many of the spiral staircases and narrow passages are part of the original Norman Abbey and have not changed much over the last 900 years. The roof spaces on the other hand have seen fundamental changes.
