DESIGN OF SHIP ENCLOSURE

GROUP 2

The Queen’s Crown

Design 1

Design 1 This design is inspired by the shape of a crown. It has an arc shape which gives it a unique design. The adjacent building design is an inspiration from a lighthouse. This

makes it outstanding. Advantages:The structure has a unique design.

The design wasn’t chosen because ; Design of the trusses was critical due to the large clear span.The building was too high, construction would be difficult.The adjacent building is far from main structure and the span of the

bridge from the adjacent building to the crow’s nest was too long.High columns that are at a risk of bucklingMassive roof design Generally the construction of this structure would not only be difficult

but also expensive.

THE ECLIPSE

DESIGN 2

Design 2

This design concept is a visualization of the ‘Eclipse’. The curved semi-circular shape of the previous design is maintained . Unlike the previous design, this elliptical design saves more vertical space and this eases the process of construction as well as reduction in the cost.

Reasons for choosing this design: Simpler design which makes construction easier; this

also reduces the cost of construction. This structure can easily be dissembled and the

materials recycled .

Design Process

1. Input Design in AutoCAD2. Use Euro-Code to calculate loading 3. Use IDS to calculate

and analyse trusses

4. Using GSA for column analysis

Energy Consumption “Go-Green”• Both structures use solar energy. • The cladding gives way for natural lighting in

both structures. • The E-Stack ventilation system minimal

usage of AC• Rain harvesting system installed on the

adjacent building • The adjacent building is a ‘smart building’

with the electro-chromic glass feature.

Sustainability- Main structure

Roof top:• solar panel (Kalzip AluPlusSolar)• Pilkington Activ™ self cleaning glass• Kalzip low u-value system (layer of metal

sheeting)• Low-e value glass

Light-sensored shading

Electro-chromic glass: Advantages: •Privacy •Light control •UV protection •Temperature and energy control •Comfort & productivity TGE glass provides thermal control.
