For Wednesday, Sept. 26
1- 1/16" plan for each level
1- 1/16" transverse section (not an elevation)
1 1/32" organizational model- model circulation (vehicle and pedestrian) in white and program with chip board
Program list and square footage
*if you did not submit a list to me yesterday with sq. ft. designated for each program (not just a list of program) please re-do this exercise
All drawings must be printed at above scale.

For Monday, Sept. 24
Everyone needs to finalize program type and square footage for program.
60,000 sq. ft. -vehicle lanes and passport control/checkpoint
60,000 sq. ft. -park and recreation with 30% (20,000 sq. ft) dedicated to circulation
As discussed on Friday the park and recreation program has been left open ended and I have provided a variety of program case studies as examples. Some of you may choose to focus on a botanical garden, landscape and water remediation, sports recreation (soccer, skating, basketball, volleyball, playing fields, running paths, etc), art/sculpture park, urban gardening/farming, outdoor entertainment and performance space or atmospheric conditions of water, air sun, and earth. You can make it highly specific or offer a wide range of program types. Take a position on what a international bridge in the future can be – this new bridge type has the opportunity to change the conditions of a border crossing. If you are struggling to make decisions or have questions please let me know immediately.
By Monday at 4pm please email a list of program and dedicated square footage and one paragraph summary stating what your program is and what it means to a bridge which in the past only allowed for vehicle and pedestrian traffic.
Continue working through how you organize program and circulation via physical models at 1/32"=1' scale. Requirements for Wednesday's class meeting will relate to these physical models and the translation into plan and section diagrams.

Desk crits tomorrow
Tomorrow is not a formal pin-up. You will pin-up your work and talk with me individually. Note: plans should be a 1/16"=1' scale, sections at 1/4". Sorry for the previous typo.
Tuesday, September 18, 2012
For Wedneday, Sept. 19 and Friday, Sept. 21
Start with measured drawings, preferably in CAD. Hand drawing is only acceptable if you are truly drafting, with a mayline and proper drafting tools. Develop in plan the entire length of bridge. Work through the dimensions of vehicle lanes, pedestrian paths and typical dimensions for program. Explore the spatial relationships between these uses.
Wednesday, Sept 19
at 4pm email me a screen shot or a pdf of your in process plan.
Friday, Sept 21
1- 1/4"=1' plan
1- 1/4"=1' section
1 plan diagram demonstrating the relationship between program and circulation
Look at the case studies listed on the right.

3 Bridges Project 2: Bay Study
OBJECTIVES:
The studio aims to fast forward the international bridge to a future more
extraordinary through a programmatic shift reflecting an international
relationship which sees beyond transportation and defensive strategies
to one that relates to human and ecological conditions. A bridge will
not be a mere function of 20th century tectonic prowess rather a new
spatial condition with implications that advance infrastructure to a
role of cultural change in the 21st century. Project 2 seeks to develop
structural assemblies in relation to program circulation and enclosure
resulting in the design three structural bays for a single bridge.
PROCESS:
Project 2 includes programmatic, technical and code related exercises.
First program and circulation will be studied as a flow of human activity
which can be tracked and predicted through the modulation of space.
Evaluation of codes and their impact will inform this study. Second
construction methods and material processes will be investigated
through the design of a base unit based on structural systems from
project 1’s precedent study and development of the program and
circulation models. This base unit will then be tested for repetition
extracting possibilities for a system across three conditions leading to
the development of three structural bays.
SITE:
Typical international bridge border crossing site.
Span = 500’, Entire bridge up to 1000’ Bay size: 60’x120’
Bay 1: At Ground- Controlled entrance- horizontal 120’ wide
Bay 2: Spanning over- horizontal 120’ wide
Bay 2: Spanning over- vertical 120’ high
PROGRAM:
Controlled entrances, vehicle and pedestrian circulation.
Memo’s class- program type of 1:
Market (stalls, stores, cafes, etc.) 120,000 sq ft
Melissa’s class program type of 2:
Recreational facility (playing fields, playground, pool, wetlands, gardens, etc.)
120,000 sq ft
OUTPUT:
3 Bay models at 1/4” = 1’
2 Sections for each bay at 1/4” = 1’
1 plan per bay at 1/4” = 1’
1 Detail Section at 1/2” = 1’
Diagrams (circulation, program, materials, etc)
Study models
DUE: Pin-up Oct 8, Review (mid-term review) Oct. 22
