Addressing China's Rapid Urbanisation | Affordable Housing - 0 views

  •  
    China's twelfth 5-Year Plan (released in 2011) addresses the country's rapid urbanisation by including a target to deliver 36 million new social housing units by 2015. Shenzhen in southern China, located in the Pearl River Delta in the Guangdong Province, is one of the fastest growing cities in the world. It has a large stake in this project and is aiming to deliver 240,000 new units which will house approximately 800,000 people. At the vanguard of China's economic reform, Shenzhen has grown 400 times its original size in the last 40 years, following high levels of investment by the government and through mass migration of workers from all over China. The city has a huge transient working population comprising mostly young people, in particular single women. Most residents come to the city from various parts of the country, leaving family, friends and other support networks. Shenzhen is rapidly running out of space, with only limited land available to house future population growth.

Green Building Versus Sustainability - Is there a difference? - 0 views

  •  
    We in the construction and design industry are currently going through a greenwash, a saturation of sustainability. In fact, we may be creating it. This public sense of exhaustion and lack of understanding in response to environmentally conscious mentalities and building processes, anything labeled 'green' to be precise, is causing an increased apathy in the entire sector and is impacting the communication of projects and concepts. Yet we are only adding fuel to the fire. We in this industry, and even those who are not, are confusing two key terms; that of Green Building and Sustainability, in turn creating confusion through misrepresented and easily misunderstood jargon. The thing is, it's universal. And ever so easy to accidently do.

Singapore's Keppel Bay Boasts Curving Skyscraper Community - 0 views

  •  
    In architecture,  it is a rare occasion that an image of a built structure is as striking as the concept drawings. It is a sad truth, but often the structure has to be walked in and felt in order for its true aesthetic to shine through. In fact, often the more innovative and arresting the concept image, the less chance that the building will even be built. However, there are the rare few that actually outshine their concept images and intrigue us as to how they were ever constructed. World-renowned architects Daniel Libeskind have done just that with the completion of the incredibly 'Reflections at Keppel Bay' development.

The Program Behind the Young Australian of the Year - 0 views

  •  
    In 2008, Marita Cheng identified a problem: too few girls in engineering, the field of her passion. Deciding to do something about it, Cheng and a number of her peers formed Robogirls, a student club which would set up and run LEGO robotics competitions for girls' schools around Melbourne, with teams receiving training and support in the lead up to the completion. What started from there has now grown into an organisation introducing girls to engineering in schools not just across Australia but also in England, Ireland, Holland and New Zealand.  Robogirls' success has now earned Marita the 2012 Young Australian of the Year.

Critics Hit Melbourne CBD Expansion - 0 views

  •  
    The announcement that Melbourne is set to receive one of its largest redevelopments on record has set the tongues of both the nation, and the globe, wagging. Finding even further international acclaim last year when it was deemed the World's Most Liveable City, Melbourne has seen a massive population surge, topping 85,000 new residents a year, causing both industry and government leaders to put together in a scheme which aims to perform the dual function of expanding and refurbishing the central Melbourne area. Much like Sydney's Barangaroo project, this latest CBD expansion is too large and high-impact to go unnoticed, for both positive and negative reasons.

Perth Hospital's Healing Lanscape - 0 views

  •  
    The idea that the environment can aid healing is not a new one. In her book 'Healing Spaces", Dr. Esther M. Sternberg has explored the health benefits to patients on both a mental and physical level when exposed to plants and larger organic environments. Australian industry giants Brookfield Multiplex and HASSELL are taking on these principles and shaping their design and construction processes with environmental healing as a key foundation of their latest Perth healthcare development.

The future of our cities - 1 views

  •  
    It's easy to forget that urban design is not a new concept. Ancient examples of carefully-planned and designed cities exist in Asia, Africa, Europe and the Americas, and are particularly well-known within classical Chinese, Roman and Greek cultures. The pioneer of urban planning, Hippodamus of Miletus, planned ancient cities of Rhodes, Miletus and the harbour-town Piraeus at Athens as early as the fifth century BC.  In England, many ninth century towns were designed on a grid plan, and by the twelfth century, urbanisation was seen as a means of stimulating economic growth and generating revenue throughout Western Europe. One of the earliest international contributions made by Australia to urban planning theory and practice sprang from the international competition held between 1911 and 1912 to design Australia's new federal capital, Canberra.

Architecture : un livre blanc pour le développement d'outils de simulation - 0 views

  • Publié le 03 Octobre 2008 Architectes et constructeurs rechignent encore trop souvent à délaisser leurs méthodes de travail traditionnelles pour se tourner vers des solutions de collaboration en ligne et de simulation des données. Le constat est dressé par des scientifiques et des ingénieurs de l'UC San Diego et de l'université de Weimar, qui se sont retrouvés au Calit2* dans le cadre d'une table ronde. Intérêt de cette dernière : définir les bases qui permettront aux instituts et entreprises du bâtiment de s'ouvrir aux technologies numériques. De telles solutions permettent d'optimiser les méthodes de travail et de réduire le nombre d'erreurs qui ralentissent un chantier. Et selon les initiateurs du débat, trois aspects doivent être réglés : l'élaboration d'une base de données d'algorithmes pour les systèmes de visualisation et de simulation, la création de modèles communs d'intégration.
  • Les ingénieurs doivent donc mener trois entreprises de simulation : de processus, de matériel et de structure, ce qui les ralentit dans leur tâche". La création de structures et de modèles communs permettrait ainsi d'accélérer le développement d'applications pouvant mieux convenir aux besoins des professionnels du secteur. Et de conclure : "Nous devons absolument nous accorder sur la mise en place de fondations communes si nous voulons voir se généraliser l'utilisation de solutions de simulation. Notamment au niveau de la recherche : les scientifiques doivent voir les technologies numériques comme de nouvelles possibilités et pas comme des obstacles".
