Concrete ArchitectureOur two-year Guest Professorship at the EPFL is integrated into the theme of Orientation: Construction et béton. Within that field, we offer the design course Théorie et critique du project MA1 in the studio, which is complemented by the exercise module by Thierry Voellinger/Véronique Amstutz Béton: Matière de construction and by the theoretical module by Roberto Gargiani Histoire du béton: fabriquer de le béton (01), as well as Antoine Picon’s Cours: de la structure à l’ornement: une histoire culturelle de la construction.The term Concrete Architecture should be grasped in more ways than one, since it explicitly also addresses the conceptual approach of the course: It seeks innovative, distinct spatial concepts in concrete, which are also feasible and realizable “in concrete” with respect to the load-bearing structure, construction and materials. At the same time, we see the design process itself as an analogy to the concrete production process: Design ideas are fed through the process of forming, casting, condensing and hardening.

The building material of concreteConcrete is a hybrid building material that has different aggregate conditions and does not have its own original expressive form since it is cast in a mold. Its constituents such as cement, water, reinforcing steel and aggregates such as gravel and sand merge together and are no longer visible after the production process. In a similar way, the distribution of forces is hardly noticeable in this hybrid, yet homogeneous material, in which statically effective and filling areas

are not revealed within the overall form. Reinforced concrete primarily gains its form through the structure and properties of the building shell which it assumes in a negative form and turns into an expression (02).

Concrete is an ancient building material. Its precursor, quick lime, was even used to build the pyramids. The Romans called concrete opus caementitum (03) and used it to build the Pantheon and aqueducts in Rome. In more recent times, John Semeaton 1755 carried out experiments with concrete on the right ratios for concrete aggregates. Joseph Monier registered the patent for reinforced concrete in 1867. Since then, reinforced concrete has experienced enormous success as a building material.

Concrete has diverse properties. It is notably robust and durable. Special treatment and processing can emulate different materials – from light textiles to heavy natural stone. By subsequently finishing the surface, it can become coarse and matt or fine and shiny, with highly contrasting effects and perceptions in daylight. Since the concrete and steel work together within the material, reinforced concrete has enormous load-bearing potential, which is combined with a wide range of undirected and three-dimensional load-bearing structures, as well as sculptural and geometric forms of expression.

With respect to production and application, one can distinguish between two basic types of concrete: In-situ cast concrete and prefabricated concrete that

54

is delivered to the building site. We have studied both applications and gathered experience in our own practical work for our office. Both applications will be themes and fields of research during the susbequent semester work.

ThemesIn addition to our study of reinforced concrete, one main focus in all four semesters lies in designing powerful interior spaces and building presences that are compatible with urban locations. In-situ cast concrete is above all sensible in shaping interior spaces, while prefabricated concrete elements are especially suitable for façade design and the creation of exterior spaces.

Powerful Space“Architecture comes from The Making of a Room” (04) (Louis I. Kahn) (04) and “Our sense of space (Raumgefuhl) and spatial imagination (Raumphantasie) press toward spatial creation (Raumgestaltung); they seek their satisfaction in art. We call this art architecture; in plain words, it is the creatress of space (Raumgestalterin).“ (05) (August Schmarsow) are the two mottos of the autumn semesters. The focus lies on powerful spaces in in-situ concrete and differentiated façades with heavy prefabrication. Working together with the structural engineer, the aim is to seek congruence between space and structure.In the two autumn semesters, the projects will focus on powerful interior spaces that produce an identity, which will interest us in our own practice and during our course as sectional figures (06) and will be implemented in in-situ cast concrete.

Urban Constellation„[…] les ensembles sont plus importants que les chefs-d’oeuvre isolés“(07) (Fernand Pouillon) and „And now the

Ensemble!!!“ (08) (Miroslav Šik) are the two mottos of the spring semesters. The focus lies on differentiated facades with heavy prefabrication and powerful spaces in in-situ concrete. Working together with the construction engineer, the aim is to seek congruence between structure and expression. In the two spring semesters, we will develop designs that create good urban spatial constellations with façades in prefabricated concrete, interpreting the city with a compatible appearance, as well as being able to build it further.

ConstructionSince the oil crisis in the 1970s and the introduction of contemporary energy standards, today’s façade constructions in our latitudes have often been multilayered. Apart from a few exceptions, the structurally homogeneous wall is a thing of the past and continuous layers must be developed with a so-called layered sketch. Such multiple layering of the exterior wall gives Carl Bötticher’s theory of a “core and artistic form” (“Kern- und Kunstform”) (09) a new, unexpected contemporary relevance. In such cases, the actual load-bearing structure often forms the inwardly aligned core form, which can itself develop an artistic form that is homogeneous with the primary system.

Load-bearing Throughout architectural history, an innovative approach to gravity has been a basic precondition for important architecture. The load-bearing structure has a great design potential in developing powerful spaces. Different load-bearing systems and spans can be used to illuminate and explore the ideal relationship (10) between the load-bearing structure and the spatial span, as well as deriving their spatial effects in a very direct way. Therefore today’s

standard thinking patterns of support and slab systems should be extended in favour of three-dimensional load-bearing structures that include ceilings. As a hardly questionable core form, it can however also create a space that is independent of current trends, which can sustainably maintain its effect in a robust, timeless way. The desired congruence of spatial design and load-bearing system can however only be achieved through close and early collaboration between the architect and the structural engineer (11).

TriadAs a result of our practical experience and teaching to date, we perceive spatial design, space, the load-bearing structure and the material of concrete as a symphonic unity and as a harmonic triad of space-structure-material. Daylight should also be integrated into this triad as a universal quality for spatial development. Innovative construction engineers – for this course the engineering office Furst Laffranchi - will accompany us as partners from the field of load-bearing structures. The material of concrete plays a decisive role both for spatial design and the load-bearing structure, since it can be used for floors, walls and ceilings, as well as being able to create a three-dimensional spatial development and load-bearing structure in the sense of a so-called espace texturé (12).

Teaching programme The teaching programme in autumn semester 2014 spans the themes of spatial design, developing a load-bearing structure and conscious handling of the material of concrete and its wide range of surface finishing. The term concrete architecture is ambiguous since it denotes the material of concrete, but also refers

to the concrete aspect of implementing a concept in innovative spatial design, a viable, innovative structure, a tangible materialism and ultimately adequate presentation.

At the end of the semester course the student must be able to:

_ Develop an exciting spatial sequenceThe aim is to design powerful spaces that strengthen identity and encourage communication, interaction and encounter. Vertical sections and sectional figures play a key role.

_ Recognise the potential of concrete as a building material.

Students should be able to understand and apply production conditions, manufacturing methods and surface treatments. The interaction between formwork and casting, as well as their

conditionality, should be recognised.

_ Know various load-bearing systems with varying spans and make them useful for the design.

The basic distribution of forces in load-bearing elements and the special forces involved with concrete as a tensile and compressive system should be understood, to be able to apply that to spatial design.

_ Know powerful spaces in architectural history and interpret them as references.

In that respect it is important to recognise spatial and structural potential in a way that is transhistoric and free of stylistic classification.

ProjectAutumn Term 2014In July 1835, the first iron steamship on the European continent, the Minerva, went into service on Lake Zurich. Several decades later, in 1890/91, the Zurichsee-Schifffahrtsgesellschaft was founded. It has been called the Zurichsee-Schifffahrtsgesellschaft, or ZSG for short since 1957. To cope with the enormous volume of passengers at the turn of the 20th century, two sister vessels, the Stadt Zurich and the Stadt Rapperswil, which were large paddle steamers, were built in 1909 and 1914 respectively. They are among the last steamboats built by the company Escher Wyss in Zurich and are considered industrial monuments today. The current fleet consists of 17 ships built between 1909 and 2007: two paddle steamers, twelve motor ships and three river boats. This term, new headquarters for the Zurich Shipping Company are to be designed including exhibition rooms. The existing facility contains the company harbour with anchoring for 17 ships, a shipyard, an office building and a catering building. On the company grounds, an interactive building is to be designed with workshops, offices and exhibition rooms to replace the old workshop building.

The company has a harbour on the left bank of Lake Zurich in Zurich-Wollishofen between Landiwiese and the Rote Fabrik. The site is easily accessible from Seestrasse and Wollishofen station. It is a relatively unattractive section of the unobstructed lakeside promenade between the “Red Factory” and “Zurihorn”

The entire site is subject to seasonal fluctuations in utilisation, being mainly used in winter. The fleet of ships are in operation on the lake during the summer months allowing the premises to be made available to interested parties. For example the shipyard is used by the “Annual Theatre Spectacle” or for other events.

The following subjects should be addressed by the building design:

_The lake promenade is to become more open and the ZSG areal closely integrated within it._The lakefront is to be integrated into or at least harmonise strongly with the new building design._ The new building should enhance the location and form a harmonious whole with the existing buildings. _ An attractive sequence of spaces is to be developed within the new building. _Consideration is to be taken of the seasonal third-party utilisation of the entire premises or certain sections thereof._ The history and specific activities of the Zürcher Schifffahrtsgesellschaft are to be presented to the public._The magic of water, the lakeside and the wide open view is to be captured atmospherically.

SiteThe urban fabric of Zurich, especially the lake shore has been fundamentally transformed during the past 150 years. The 1830-map shows a small, urban core along the river Limmat. A major transformation was the opening of the city towards the lake around 1860. Under the administration of the engineer Burkli the lake shore became the new face and the image of the business and trading town. Until 1900, due to vast earthworks, ground was reclaimed in order to built parks, squares and promenades that

were designed from scratch. Later on, the coastline was redefined for the national exhibition ‘‘Landi 1939‘‘. After the exhibition, several parks and facilities, such as the Landiwiese or the China Garden took place on the former exhibition-site. 1985 the existing ZSG - headquarter and shipyard was modified and enlarged. Today, the Area around Rote Fabrik and the ZSG - shipyard form the endpoint of the public space along the lake, within the city of Zurich.

Teaching MethodsThematic treatmentThe term is divided into three thematic treatment phases according to Kenneth Frampton: Topology, Typology, Tectonics. Each phase lasts 4 weeks and is mainly concluded with a “wall critique”, although inferences from previous phases are always permitted and encouraged. The first stage, topology, is developed in teams of two, while the subsequent stages are individual work. In between these phases, there are alternating weekly supervision sessions with the assistants and an interim critique by the professors and assistants. The development of the load-bearing structure will be closely supervised by qualified construction engineers with practical experience (Furst Lanffranchi). The design should show structural logic and considerable sensuous and poetic quality. Spatial and structural models are cast enabling students to experience at first hand the properties of formwork and casting.

Working with ReferencesThe cultural wealth of the history of architecture and art can be used as an inspiration and a driving force for developing one’s own thoughts. By using a limited selection of topics, treating them conceptually and applying them to one’s own project, it is possible to achieve translation and development work that is characterised by the interpreter and his understanding of the reference project.

InputsAn accompanying programme with thematic input communicates underlying insight and professional know-how on in-situ concrete and heavy prefabrication, as well as providing an overview of possible load-bearing structural concepts and their use, explaining the relationship between the load-bearing structure and space etc..

InstrumentsThe following forms of presentation have proved to be suitable for our project: _1:100/1:200 project plans, in which the spatial figure design is recognisable as a public interior space. The ground plan and cross-sections should also make load-bearing and structural elements clearly visible. Non-load-bearing and partition elements are presented as line drawings._A structural section representing the spatial concept is presented as a 1:20 layered sketch (distinguishing between load-bearing, insulating and protective functions), with an architecturally developed interior view._Models present the quality of the interior figure in the form of a spatial structure or a cast spatial figure.

POWERFUL SPACES - POWER STATIONSThis years field trip takes us to powerful ‚infrastructural‘ architecture in Bern and its surroundings. The hydroelectric power station Hagneck (2010-15) as well as the recently completed sports hall Weissenstein (2008-14) are almost didactic examples for congruence between space and structure. This is the results of the fruitful collaboration between the architect Christian Penzel and the structural engineer Martin Valier. In their project KVA Forsthaus (2008-12) Graber Pulver (architects) and Carlo Galmarini (engineer) create a power station as a public building and part of the urban landscape in a transformed industrial area. Next to it, in an old factory building giuliani.hönger built (2005-10) two auditoriums and created a very specific learning environment for the University of Bern. As architects for this university they stand in row with the great Otto Rudolf Salvisberg and his partner Otto Brechbuhl, how built the Institutsneubauten Baltzerstrasse (1928-31) one of the first fairfaced concrete buildings in this city.
