section allocations

Hey sorry forgot to post this earlier

REVISED SITE

Meikala do you have the stair rise?

Notes from Yesterday

Hey girls here are the sketches we had from yesterdays group meeting. Also i am making up a group folder for us. Please also keep/print all AS - resources and there will be a section in the folder where it will all be kept. Good luck. And keep working on it. Have a wonderful weeekend

amendments to slab

just a few things to note:

1. the waffle slab should sit on the fill, see next post on slab, not below as dwan in my last post

2. there will be a step from the garage to main floor see image on left, this is to prevent dust and minimise air entering throuh garage. this will have the same rise as the stairs found within the building

ALSO...
the wall between the garage and living area

are we going to have a skin, as on the outer walls??? this wall in theory is the same as an outer wall so it should have some kind of skin to prevent air movement between the rooms

i think that we could use either use the same material as used on the externa walls or another lighter material, if the tubes used to inclose the garage are water proof we could have exposed tubes without a skin on the outer wall and the skin on the shared wall

LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK

Rose this might be something that you look into

SITE: cut and fill

i have posted the revised site excavations,

i hope that you can all read it if not let me know and i will email you a copy, i have tried to inclued all the dimentions needed to draw it, however i am sorry if i have missed any (let me know and i will fix it). i have included a basic waffle raft slab as decided on in our meeting today, i have used the relevant AS, however due to copyright issues etc. (and the fact that none of you really need to know, but if you want to check it is AS2870 clause 5 and 6) i will not post them. also i haven't included gradients just to let you know 1 to 2 for the fill and 50mm over 1m for the slope away from the slab on both sides. it is controlled sand fill, protected by a layer of re-used stripped topsoil.

NOTE: drainage is not included in the above image

also the slab cut the other way will be similar but i will post again on the details of that.

RE: roofing material

hey elise i like the sound of the corrugated fiber cement roofing, i had a quick look around but couldn't find much on it, i am not sure if i have heard of it before, but am happy to go with it.

Roofing material

Hey Girls,

hope you have all recovered from studio submission. I was just looking at different types of materials that we could possibly use for the roof.
1. Glass
2. corrugated fibre cement sheeting
3. metal ( aluminium, lead, copper, stainless steel, galvanised steel, zinc
4. membrane
or we can go for more old school tiles etc.

but the corrugated fibre cemebt seeting has a 's' shape, which would blend in well with the tubes.

any prefrances???
