Foreground

Inspired by the recent prefab projects a n d with the exper ience during my year-out of conduc t ing a research of「elatea issues, I was interested in the prefab techniques a n d modular design.

A l t h o u g h normal ly r e g a r d e d as a p r o d u c t of t he industrial age, the prefabr icat ion of elements of domestic archi tecture is an extremely ancient activity. The world oldest-known printed archi tectural treatise, the Ying tsao fa shih from the Chinese Song Dynasty, systematically sets out the range of building elements necessary to build virtually all types of building.

Throughout the 195〇s and 60s systems of prefabr icat ing large-scale building elements for mass housing were d e v e l o p e d and utilized in an a t tempt to increase productivity a n d decrease construction time.

Despite the claims m a d e for the advan tages of system building, human beings and their physiological a n d psychological condit ions remained all i l l-defined construct. The lack of design variability was always seen as a big d isadvantage of system construction, but its economic viability has also been quest ioned. Buildings that are ab le to grow a n d adap t t〇

chang ing require a far greater technical 〇nd financial investment in the first p lace. In 1967, the proport ion of prefabr icat ion construction was less than 10 percent of the overall vo lume of building. Because of the relatively small product ion runs, therefore, it was never possible to ach ieve the desired cost savings.

The advent of CAD has brought dramat ic changes to product ion technology, making even small product ion series with individual forms and complex geometries viable today, and since the beginning of the 1990s, architects and engineers have shown a renewed interest in the concep t of system building. The need of forms of construction thot conserve natural resources and a renewed interest in fiexioility of use should lend fresh impetus to builaing sys‘ems.

Can v/e learn fnom the 60s in the questions of system oui la ing? With the m a n u f a c t u r i n g technology cjvailable today and in viev/ of the a e ^ a n d s r^iCde in the reaims of environmental ly frienaiy cons卜uction ana building ohysics, we can certainly ouilding tq a d v a n t a g e on the exper ience g a i n e d in these yea^s.

01 Panel systems

Flat panels having the size of a wall section 〇「of entire walls serve as spatial partitioning and simultaneously as supporting structure. -Dependen t structure. Advantages -Maximize material efficiency-Disadvantages -To maintain the integrity of the skin, it should have a minimum of perforations which decrease planning flexibility.

Page 9: ARCHITECTURE DEPARTMEN CHINEST UNIVERSIT OYF HONG … · NaKagin Capsul Towere Japa, n Location: Ginza, Tokyo, Japan Building Type: Residential Contract Period: Design/Construction

02 Skeletal frame + panel systems

Spatial partitioning and supporting functions are assigned to two different groups of elements. The supporting functions are al lot ted to a skeletal frame, whose interstices are closed up with non-supporting panels. - I ndependen t structure Advantages -Since only the frame itself is load-bearing, any of the sides, top, or bot tom can be omit ted without af fect ing the structure. -Modules can be combined vertically 〇「horizontally which increase planning flexibility. Disadvantages -Frame is heavy, expensive.

Locat ion: Kassel, G e r m a n y Building Type: Office and residential Arch i tec t : A lexander Reichel

To allow for maximum flexibility, the idea was to develop a 3D load-bearing structure that could be extended in all directions and would provide func-tionally neutral spaces. The openings between the structural elements could be filled with various wall panels, depending on the usage required. The building was divided into 3 different systems:

01 The l〇ad-bea「ing structure: reinforced concrete skeleton frame, filigree floors, filigree walls. 02 Timber framed elements: closed elements, ele-ments with large window strips, elements with small window strips, room-height glazing. 03 Cladding elements: c ladding to columns, beams and wall panels.

03 Skeletal frame + cellular systems

Spatial partitioning and supporting functions are assigned to two different groups of elements. The supporting functions are al lot ted t〇 • skeletal frame, whose interstices are closed up with non-supporting cells. - I ndependen t structure. Advantages -Since only the frame itself is load-bearing, any of the sides, top, or bot tom can be omit ted without af fect ing the structure. -Modules can be combined vertically or horizontally which increase planning flexibility. Disadvantages -Frame is heavy, expensive.

Office Block, Germany Location: Fellbach, Germany Building Type: Office Architect: Dollmann and Partners (Stuttgart

The modules were fabr icated in the factory and were transported to the site and positioned. This off ice building provided a variety of spaces from group working areas to unit offices and conference rooms, using standard elements in readily avai lable materials and prefabricated modules f〇「confer-ence rooms and sanitary areas. The envelope of the building consisted of 2 closed and 2 glazed fa-cades.

Habitat 67, Canada Location: Cite du Havre, Montreal, Canada Building Type: Residential Contract Period: 1964-1967 Contract Sum: $21 million Public Circulation Space: 165,000 sq.ft. Including circulation space 110,000 sq. ft., and parking space 55,000 sq. ft. Livable Space: 250,000 sq. ft., including 354 units, each unit being 19 ft x 38 ft externally. Architect: Moshe Safdie

Habitat 67 consisted of ] 58 houses made from 354 modular construction units. Recent fusions have reduced the number of houses to 150. The apart-ment sizes varied from a one-bedroom (600sqft) to a four-bedroom (ISOOsqft).

The units measured 1 1.7 m x 5.3 m x 3 m, and weighed 70 tons. They were assembled in a clus-tered geometry, with eight boxes piled on top of another. Vertical circulation was conduc ted through 3 elevator cores leading to horizontal pedestrian streets located on 4 floors of the com-plex. All parts of the building part icipated as 丨oad-carrying members. The units were connec ted to each other by post-tensioning, using high tension rods, cables, and welding, resulting in a continuous s 汁 ucture.

This building was the world' s first capsule architec-ture built for actual use. The prefabr icated units were a t tached t〇 • concre te core with 4 high-tension bolts which m a d e the units de tachab le and replaceable. The building' s 1 1 and 13-storey provides single bedroom dwellings which some of them are used as studio. The capsule dimensions were 2.5 nn x 4 m x 2.5 m. The capsules were fabr icated •丨 the factory and fitted out including utilities, interior fittings etc., and w e r e a t t a c h e d to the c o n c r e t e towers. Each c a p -sule was a t t a c h e d to the shaft by 4 high-tension bolts and were independent ly cant i levered from the shaft so that any capsule may be easily re-moved without af fect ing the others. The form of the capsule was simple and the major structure was an al l -welded lightweight steel-truss box.

The 72 meters building was designed as a showroom f〇「

Sony Electronics. It comprises 2 basement floors and 10 floors over ground. The vertical circulations were exposed to the streets providing large flexible space for the show-room. Along the outside of the central display space, the stairs, elevator, escalator, and toilet were capsulized. The cap-sules were the same size as those of the Nakagin Capsule Tower, but the exterior were made of stainless steel.

01 Dependent structure

- T h e bot tom units support the units above. -Favorable for low-rise building.

Disadvantages -Non-economica l - to achieve an efficient material economy, addit ional fl〇〇「modules should be designed to carry less weight modules of different structural design minimizes the potential economy of mass production. -Non-f lexible for long range planning - non rep laceable modules as the lower modules cannot be removed without first removing those on top.

5

Page 19: ARCHITECTURE DEPARTMEN CHINEST UNIVERSIT OYF HONG … · NaKagin Capsul Towere Japa, n Location: Ginza, Tokyo, Japan Building Type: Residential Contract Period: Design/Construction

02 Independent structure

Modules are not interdependent f〇「structural support, but are instead stojcturally and physically independent . They therefore only need enough structural integrity to support themselves. Both skeletal frames and suspension systems have been proposed f〇「such structures.

Advantages -Flexible - modules can be prefabr icated using a variety of methods and materials (i.e. wood , steel, concrete, plastic, and so forth} as d ic ta ted by the economics of a particular project. -Flexible for long range planning - the removal of one or a number of modules without disturbing the basic structure of the building. The module, therefore, becomes an in terchangeable part. -Economica l - every module can be structurally identical, a favorable condit ion f〇「mass production.

Disadvantages -Unfavorable for low-rise as the cost of a structural frame might exceed costs when compa red with low rise appl icat ion of the dependen t structure.

Program

Service apar tment was being selected as the testing program due to its modular and standardized characteristics. At the same time, varieties should be in t roduced into the program in order to meet individual interest. C o m p a r e d to the tradit ional apar tmen t program, service apar tment o f fered a much higher degree of flexibility bo th in terms of design a n d program. F〇「

the tradition•丨 apar tment , usually the end-users have their own right to ar range the internal layout. Whereas for the service apar tment , the m a n a g e m e n t has its right to transformed the units accord ing to market d e m a n d , thus the designer retains a higher deg ree of control t〇vv〇「ds the internal details say furniture design a n d ar rangement .

Development of Basic Module The dimension of the units is 6.3 m x 2.1 m x 3.425 m

Scheme 01 - End wall structure The disadvantages of this configuration •「e that the whole module is too heavy. Also, the end wall hinders flexibilities in creat ing continuous and large spaces.

Scheme 02 - Column structure Column structure enhances flexibilities creating continuous and large spaces also helps「educing weight.

in It

Scheme 03 - Column structure Turning the columns 90 degrees creates some potential usage of the spaces in-between the columns.

Final scheme - Post tensioning column structure The configuration and the dimension 〇f

the basic module are based on: 01 Transportation limitation - The module can be transDorted by a normal lorry. 02 Erection limitation 03 Production eff iciency - the module should be as large as possible t〇 be practical. 〇4 Flexibilities - column structure enhances flexibilities in creating continuous and large spaces. Also, the width: length = 1:3, which fosters fiexiDilities in combinat ion. 05 Construction ease - standardizing construction procedures. 06 Additional site work - minimizing addit ion elements and site works.

Prefab Components The design deve lopment of the components kit starts with the basic living module.

The dimensions of other components are based on the basic living module: The height, dep th and width of the furniture are accord ing to the module height, co lumn dep th and space betv/een columns respectively.

All components are prefabr icated, mass-produced and standardized. This not only accelerates the manufactur ing process but also enhances the s p e e d of e rec t ion . All c o m p o n e n t s a re d imens iona l coordinated, thus the in terchangeable ability allows a variety of forms to be c rea ted thus belying the limits of the manufactur ing process.

Modules Connection Details All parts of the building part ic ipated as load-carrying members. The units were connec ted to each other by post-tensioning, using high tension rods, cables, and welding, resulting in a continuous structure. The benefits of the post-tensioning dry assembiy system include: 01 No in-situ concret ing is involved, therefore, erection is fast, simple and weather independent. 02 Environmental sustainable as:

a. Less wet- t rade is involved b. Recycle of modules is possible

03 Adaptab le to varieties of architecture: low-rise high-rise suspension can-

Annex • Hotel Design A hotel design was first proposed as the testing program and the site of the existing Gold Coast Hotel was being selected. The complexity and the large scale of the hotel program would, nevertheless, hinder the study of the tectonics of spatial modules. Finally, the hotel program was simplified to the apar tment program.
