DESIGN INTENT

“The concept for the proposed building is based on the idea of a Swan’s nest, incorporating Southmere’s rich

natural environment and history, within the building design.”

“This has been incorporated into the building design with a nest-like structure sitting on top of a glazed

element, ‘the water’, maximizing views out to the lake, public spaces and in particular forming a visual link to

the new Bow Arts building across the lake and green space beyond”.

“The new facility will accommodate a contemporary library, learning space, and civic spaces such as health

and wellbeing programs”.

Due to the range of 3.6-12.2m deep of the clay soil in Southmere

Lake zone, it is safer to use pile as foundation.

According to the Studio Companion:

The longest span is 12755mm = 42’

• With such a span, the depth of beam is equivalent to 640 mm

• Wood Decking Depth: 3”

• Columns are 480x480mm and placed ~7m apart

WATER AND SUN: LONDON INSOLATION AND PRECIPITATION

G = [(P) (A)] / (2.15), where: G = rainfall collected (gallons) P = total precipitation (inches) A = roof catchment area (ft2).

1. Determine your cistern capacity in gallons based on the following rules-of-thumb:

a. If the average monthly catchment exceeds the average monthly use, G = (U) (1.5), where: G = cistern capacity

(gallons) U = average monthly use (gallons).

b. If the average monthly use exceeds the average monthly catchment, G = 2C, where: C = average monthly catchment

(gallons).

2. Determine your cistern volume. V = G / (7.48) where: V = cistern volume (ft3)

Monthly Average Precipitation:

P=52.41mm=2.06 in

Roof Catchment Area:

A=423437528mm2=4555.51ft2

G=2.06x4555.51/2.15=4364.81gallons

V=G/7.48=583.53ft3=16.53m3

The volume of the cistern

size will be 16.53m3

and save $4,228 per year, if we cover the whole roof, the PV panels can produce

75,892kWh/year and save $12,902 per year.
