Part B#

Design and analyse different options by defining evaluate different design tactics to satisfy your design strategy in BIM

Stage B starts by students ‘pinning up’ a specified set of drawings defined in their Design Management Schema based on informal feedback they develop design options which modelled, reported and sent to the client for feedback.

Documentation of 2 Different design options.

Define the overall concept for your building through multi-disciplinary drawings that will be ‘pinned up’. The drawings will be ‘marked up’ with feedback by the client/teachers for you to consider.

Drawings/Sketches#

  • Please bring your printed drawings with you on Monday, March 17?(TBC). Space to pin up the drawings will be allocated to each team in Building 116. Please make sure to be there by 12:45 in front of the main auditorium (81).

  • PM coordinates these efforts into integrated drawings

  • You will not formally present your drawings. Your subject teachers will, at some point, go with you to the drawings and discuss them. The idea is to create immediate feedback from the teachers.

  • You will have to present two different alternatives for the floor plan and section. The differences can include the shape of the building, floor height, structural system, type of materials, location of rooms, or shafts, etc.

  • We are not providing an ‘official template’ as some drawings will be sketches, while others will be made on a computer. However, please ensure each of your drawings include the number of your team, The name of the drawing.

  • We require that the drawings integrate input from all subjects. This ensures that the project and solutions are coherent and do not clash.

These should include:

  • Minimum one site plan

  • Two alternatives of the ground floor

  • Two alternatives of an office floor

  • Two alternatives of vertical sections of an office floor

  • Two alternatives of the section of the entire building, coloured by functions

  • Minimum one 3D view Any other relevant drawings/sketches

Minimum one site plan:#

1:200 or appropriate

  • Location of the building

  • Access for the fire brigades to the building

  • Access for waste truck

  • Utility systems connected to the building

  • Fire egress

Two alternative ground floor drawings:#

1:100 or appropriate Layout

  • Indication of horizontal stabilizing and vertical load-bearing elements

  • Location and sizes of potential technical rooms and shafts

  • Fire egress

Two alternatives office floor drawings:#

1:200 or appropriate Layout

  • Indication of horizontal stabilizing and vertical load-bearing elements

  • Routing (indicative) of heating, cooling, ventilation, hot and cold water, waste water, and sprinkler if needed. Also include electricity/IT/cabling

  • Location and sizes of potential technical rooms and shafts

  • Fire egress

Two alternatives of vertical sections of an office floor:#

1:50 or appropriate

  • Indicate façades incl. windows, cores, slabs, ceilings, and partitioning walls

  • Indication of horizontal stabilizing and vertical load-bearing elements

  • Routing (indicative) of heating, cooling, ventilation, hot and cold water, waste water, and sprinkler if needed. Also include electricity/IT/cabling

  • Location and sizes of potential technical rooms and shafts

  • Fire egress

Two vertical section of the entire building including basement:#

1:200 or appropriate

  • Coloured code functions (office, shaft, lift, fire egress etc.) in the building (by hand is okay)

  • Indication of horizontal stabilizing and vertical load-bearing elements

  • Routing (indicative) of heating, cooling, ventilation, hot and cold water, waste water, and sprinkler if needed. Also include electricity/IT/cabling

  • Location and sizes of main technical rooms and shafts

Minimum one 3D view#

Isometric or perspective view

  • At least one view from the camera position, ideally from a pedestrian point 

Any other relevant drawings/sketches:#

  • Sketch of any specific and important subject’s point of view

  • A structural detail dealing with some important connection

  • Schematics of ventilation, heating, cooling, hot and cold water, wastewater, and sprinkler if needed.

Client Report#

Contribute towards the client recommendations for your subject, what options would you recommend to the Client? The client report analyzing different options to assist the client in making decisions and providing feedback on the designs in Week 8. The purpose of the report is to document the decisions made by both you and the client (teachers) regarding the initial design of the buildings. We encourage you to develop your own way of presenting this report based on your impression of the client from the communication you have had with them so far. For example, consider whether they would prefer a detailed report with extensive calculations or summaries presented in a ‘one-pager’. Would they appreciate an executive summary?

The representation of choices to the client is not predefined in this task; it’s up to you, just as it would be in a real project. PM will coordinate these efforts and present recommendations to the client.

Submission#

Integrate your recommendations to the client, drawings, separate photos of sketches, and a photo of the all the drawings/sketches on the wall into a client report in PDF and upload it to Learn. File name: 9W_TeamXX
