Prospectus: ARCH 5901-302 Comprehensive Design Studio

Spring Semester 2010
Instructor: Ben Shacklette, AIA
ARCH 5901-302 Studio 804 MWF 8:30-12:20 a.m. TuTh 2:00-4:50 p.m.

Course Description

Comprehensive Design Studio (9:0:18). Design of a comprehensive architectural project based on a building program and site that includes an understanding of structural and environmental systems, building assemblies, and principles of sustainability.


NAAB 3.13 Student Performance Criteria

23. Building Systems Integration. Ability to asses, select, and conceptually integrate structural systems, building envelope systems, environmental systems, life safety systems, and building services systems into building design.

28. Comprehensive Design. Ability to produce a comprehensive architectural project based on a building program and site that includes development of programmed spaces demonstrating an understanding of structural and environmental systems, building envelope systems, life-safety provisions, wall sections and building assemblies and the principles of sustainability.

Student Learning Outcomes:

Upon completion of this course students will be able to:
Construct, present, and defend advanced comprehensive architectural design solutions that integrate the following criteria:

  • Form and Space: Defined by systems of structure, enclosure, and circulation, organized by hierarchical patterns, articulated by the qualities of shape, color and texture, and determined by the principles of scale, and theories of proportion, aesthetics and compositional arrangement.
  • Technology: Methods of construction, properties of materials, building systems, and mechanical systems including plumbing, electrical, lighting, and HVAC.
  • Program: The accommodation of physical and psychological needs, planning for specific human activities, identifying spatial relationships, and the allocation of spatial sizes and requirements.
  • Codes and Regulations: Life Safety design, building codes, fire safety, zoning ordinances, and accessibility.
  • Site and Environment: Design for ecological conditions considering natural environment, climate, solar exposure, wind, temperature, and precipitation. All design work must minimize harmful ecological impact through the use of sustainable design technology.
  • Design Process: The intellectual activity of conceptualizing, analyzing, refining, and expressing architectural form and space through creative and logical thinking using hand drawing, three-dimensional hand-built models, and electronic media.
  • Precedent: Design solutions are to be informed by established principles and noteworthy examples found in professional and academic works.

Assessment of Learning Outcomes

  1. Assigned readings, written reports and oral presentations.
  2. Research assignments producing physical evidence applicable to studio works.
  3. Class discussion, group participation, and team contribution.
  4. Architectural design project assignments.


Project: Buddy Holly Elementary School

Site

Lubbock, Texas 100th Street to 102nd Street, between Frankford and Fulton Ave


Project Description

Using the given program each design team is required to design a Public Elementary School. This design will be a comprehensive architectural project using the provided building program, space list, and site that demonstrates an understanding of the specified structural and environmental systems, building assemblies, and principles of sustainability. Each team will be evaluated on their ability to asses, select, and conceptually integrate structural systems, building envelope systems, environmental systems, life safety systems, and building services systems into a comprehensive architectural design. All design solutions will be informed by case study and precedent resulting from evidence based research.

Building Systems to be used in this project

  1. Long Span Steel for large assembly spaces
  2. Load Bearing Masonry for medium spaces
  3. Metal stud construction for small spaces
  4. Opaque Envelope: Brick and block masonry, metal, wood, solar shading devices
  5. Transparent Envelope: Energy Efficient Glazing systems with solar shading devices
  6. Low-slope roofing: (slopes less than or equal to 3:12 or 14 degrees) to be Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM)
  7. Steep-slope roofing:(slopes exceeding 3:12 14 degrees) to be architectural metal panel or structural metal panel
  8. Rain water harvesting system including storage cistern
  9. Photovoltaic collection system
  10. Wind energy system
  11. HVAC a four pipe system using multiple fan coil units connected to a central boiler/chiller
  12. Interior wall finishes: wood, ceramic tile, gypsum board, low VOC textile
  13. Interior floor finishes: recycled rubber, FSC wood, ceramic tile, carpet
  14. Landscaping: Plant native, climatically appropriate trees and other vegetation.
  15. (1) Oil hydraulic elevator
  16. Natural ventilation and day lighting
