一个有六套公寓的四层公寓楼的设计是为了创造一个愉快的生活体验,同时优化施工,最大限度地节约材料和能源。长方体的紧凑中央体量与轻质金属结构并列,这些轻质金属结构是私人主要用于户外的悬浮阳台。紧凑的街区包括一个高水平的绝缘,旨在留下一个小的生态足迹,并具有经济效益。建筑物的遮阳板和太阳能发电板被放置在一起,以使建筑的方向最大化。

A four-storey apartment block with six apartments was designed to create a pleasant living experience while optimizing construction and maximizing material and energy savings. The compact central volume of the cube-shaped block is juxtaposed with lightweight metal structures that are the suspended balconies for private mainly outdoor use. The compact block includes a high level of insulation aiming to leave a small ecological footprint and be economically efficient. Shadings for the edifice and solar, power-generating, panels were placed to maximize the building’s orientation.

所使用的结构系统,即一个强大的核心和仅在建筑周边的柱子,使平面设计具有灵活性。前两层每层创建了两个两居室的公寓,而在三层和四层创建了两个不同的三居室公寓,在遵循城市规划规定的同时满足用户的不同需求。

The structural system used, a strong core and columns only on the perimeter of the building, allows flexibility in floor plan design. Two two-bedroom apartments were created on each floor for the first two floors while two different three-bedroom apartments were created on the 3rd and 4th floor that serve the different needs of the users while following the urban planning regulations.

每个类型的天花板都是独立设计的,以便满足建筑的功能、美学和结构需求。对公寓的地板设计给予了特别的关注,材料的组合倾向于统一空间,不考虑隔离墙。屋顶被组织成一个屋顶花园,通过覆盖机械地板的轻质结构作为一个公共休闲区,增加了建筑的整体美感。

The ceiling of each typology was designed independently so that the functional, aesthetic, and structural needs of the building are served. Special attention was given to the floor design of the apartments, a combination of materials tends to unify the spaces disregarding the separation walls. The roof is organized into a roof garden that acts as a common recreation area through lightweight structures which are covering up the mechanical floor, adding to the building’s overall aesthetic.

结构方法。计算优化技术被应用于确定项目的结构系统,以尽量减少地震活动的影响。考虑到结构件的小截面,这导致了建筑所需的加固量的减少。此外,选择华夫板系统是为了减少模板工程的成本,并减轻钢筋混凝土结构的总重量。悬臂式阳台是金属铰链的补充,不影响结构其他部分的坚固性。

Structural approach: Computational optimization techniques were applied to determine the structural system of the project in order to minimize the impact of seismic activity. This led to a decrease in the amount of reinforcement needed for the construction, given the small cross-sections of the structural elements. Additionally, the waffle slab system was chosen to reduce the cost for the formworks and to lessen the total weight of the reinforced concrete structure. The cantilevered balconies are metal hinged additions that don’t affect the sturdiness of the rest of the structure.
