Buildings : Infrastructure : Consulting From global climate change to resource scarcity, the
challenges for the built environment in the years and decades to come will be enormous for
both developed and emerging economies. While emerging economies seek methods for rapid
infrastructure implementation, developed economies are stumbling, suffering from decaying
infrastructure and public sector paralysis. Both are starved of energy and will be increasingly
challenged to provide for future generations.
1:10:100
At Buro Happold we believe that a holistic approach, cutting across many scales, is necessary to meet tomorrows challenges. 1:10:100 refers to the different portfolios of work and the different skill sets required to meet our clients objectives. Buildings engineers must lead with creative solutions and have a greater impact on the way society advances. Planning and strategy, ahead of the engineering implementation, enables us to look at the wider solutions and the interlinked nature of the worlds problems.
Our world deserves better answers, answers that seek to improve quality and sustainability in our public and private sector buildings and infrastructure. From sustainable buildings and land development to influencing public policy and paving the way for innovative solutions, Buro Happold is primed to assist our clients in responding to tomorrows challenges today.
Our goal is to deliver quality solutions to all of our clients needs, whether at 1, 10 or 100 scale.
1: Building scale Buildings that use less energy, are icons of cities and institutions, and are economically viable; that use fewer materials, work with tomorrows technology, and improve the quality of life for all.
10: Infrastructure scale Infrastructure and development that engages communities and lessens the burden on waste, water and energy supplies; that enables long term sustainable solutions, challenges existing solutions and improves our global competitiveness.
100: Consulting scale Evidence based strategies born from understanding the built environment, rethinking urban density and development, assessing economic viability, reaching broad consensus with decision makers and stakeholders, and delivering environmentally driven solutions that balance political and economic needs.
Working with Buro Happold has enabled us to take our aspirations
for innovative design and building performance to a whole new level.
Buro Happolds integration of energy modeling into our conceptual
design process is helping us carry the architecture of habitation into
the 21st Century.

Complex structures
The challenge of complex structures lies at the heart
of our structural engineering practice. Working at the
cutting edge of structural analysis, materials research
and computer-based fabrication, our engineers and
designers bring passion, commitment and rigor to
every project.
Buro Happolds ability to deliver original design
solutions is core to our culture, and manifests as:
a hunger for problem solving, a broad adoption of
leading edge technology, a true multi-disciplinary
approach, a respect for architectural integrity, and
a desire to realize our clients vision in the most
sustainable and cost-effective way. This holistic
approach yields deeply inspiring results, as embodied
in the Crystal Bridge Museum of Art.
Housing one of the largest art collections in the
US, the challenge for this iconic new museum
was to create a series of galleries nestled around
a stream, creating a true sense of integration with
nature. Through careful computational analysis
Buro Happold was able to develop practical solutions
using cable suspended structures with glulam timber
arches. We also produced detailed three-dimensional
fabrication models to help coordinate construction
of the geometrically complex roofs.

Rede ning performance

A unique system of springs embedded in the foundations helps to cushion vibrations
Heated mullions keep the glass free of condensation and help create the perfect quiet environment
Curtis R. Priem Experimental Media and Performing Arts Center, Troy, NY, USA
Client Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute Architect Grimshaw, Davis Brody Bond Architects Images Pal Rivera / Archphoto
Performance based modeling
As multi-disciplinary consultants, we pride ourselves
in delivering designs that are not only excellent,
but exceptional. Using advanced three-dimensional
modeling tools, we look at all factors affecting the
quality and performance of buildings and spaces,
from acoustics and lighting to the energy efficiency
of the building fabric. Whatever the needs of the
project, we investigate, analyze, interpret, advise
and inform.
Unusually, perhaps for a building with sound at its
heart, minimizing noise was the key to creating
a world class performance space at Rensselaer
Polytechnics new Media and Performing Arts
Center. Buro Happold led the design team in
delivering a venue that achieves an outstanding
level of quiet while maintaining an open and
soaring environment for visitors.
This was achieved through careful acoustic
separation of the interior spaces and by exploring
and testing subtle room-shaping techniques
and innovative materials, such as partially
reflective acoustic ceiling fabric. To reduce energy
consumption, CFD and thermal modeling were used
to optimize environmental control and mechanical
systems throughout the building.

Energy consulting
Reducing the consumption of energy and improving
our energy infrastructure has become a priority.
From buildings to city scale our clients are asking
us to help them plan, manage, refine and ultimately
reduce the amount of energy used and carbon
emitted in day-to-day activities.
Energy consulting covers a broad range of topics
and requires a unique set of skills drawn from many
disciplines of engineering, and a creative approach
to problem solving.
At Transbay, we created an accurate model of the
design scheme, which enabled the team to choose
the most effective energy reduction measures, at
the lowest cost. The building will use natural light,
ambient and geothermal heating, and natural
ventilation, and will ultimately reduce energy
requirements and carbon emissions to an
exemplary level.

local knowledge of the environmental conditions in
Saudi Arabia and our familiarity with the LEED rating
system that allows our engineers to seamlessly
design buildings systems and propose sustainable
measures that will enable the modern green city
that was envisioned in the master plan.
The development will create a robust center for

transportation links and gives people access to essential utility services such as
water, power and telecommunications. Buro Happold unlocks the potential in
new projects, by seamlessly connecting new developments to the surrounding
infrastructure.
Our extensive experience of master planning and designing for the built environment gives us an in-depth
understanding of site constraints and regulatory issues. From initial assessment of ground conditions to advice
on access, transport planning, procurement, drainage, flooding and remediation, our engineers work with
clients and planning authorities to implement cost-effective, sustainable solutions.
Buro Happold believes that designing places for people means doing it from the ground up. If buildings and
public spaces are to function, and be appealing, they need to be supported by quality infrastructure. People
need easy access to roads, car parks, services and utilities. Getting from A to B should be smooth, seamless,
and as sustainable as possible. Streets should be well lit and welcoming.
People and infrastructure working in harmony; that is our vision.

After extensive testing and repairing, many of the original steel rails and other artifacts were restored to form part of the new park
Urban regeneration
At Buro Happold, we know what it takes to create
successful places that enable people to thrive,
enrich the urban landscape and build strong
communities. Redefining urban spaces requires
an understanding of the diversity of the city, the
vision to recognize the potential, and the ability
to combine architectural vision with complex
engineering detail. The High Line project exemplifies
this: situated in one of Manhattans most dynamic
neighborhoods, it acts as an iconic catalyst for post
industrial regeneration.
Buro Happold worked with the design team to
transform 1.45 miles of elevated disused railway into
a public park in the heart of the city. Tasked with
creating a master plan for the project, our engineers
assessed the existing structural and building services
systems to establish which materials from the
railroad could be reused. High Lines walkways are
constructed from individual pre-cast planks with
open joints to encourage plant growth through the
cracks, unifying the relationship between the park
and the pedestrians walking through it.
Featuring 210 different species of native perennials,
grasses, shrubs and trees, High Line offers New
Yorkers a unique glimpse of nature within the
surrounding cityscape.

Strategic master planning
Buro Happold approaches every master planning
project with imagination and sensitivity. We
understand the challenges facing modern cities
as well as the opportunities. Our master plans are
inspirational yet always deliverable, addressing
the commercial and social demands of the
present while making allowances for the need
for future changes. Our innovative land use plans
embrace the needs of local populations while
creating a vibrant and accessible urban fabric.
Above all we strive to create sustainable places
that touch the earth lightly and benefit the
communities that live and work in them.
Developed jointly by Buro Happold and Woods
Bagot and going well beyond zero carbon or
zero energy, Zero Emissions Design (ZERO
E) is a new model for large scale sustainable
development that makes a significant
contribution towards achieving a zero carbon
economy by 2050. As a pilot study the team has
master planned an industrial site on the Yangtze
River in Chongqing, China for use as a 450,000m2
mixed use development, which is able to
achieve zero emissions by balancing the various
buildings needs, demands and production of
waste and energy across the site.
Leading the way to engineeringa zero carbon future
