Well, the end of the
semester is here. Where did the time go!? I have been unbelievably busy with
work from all of my classes. I have been working on chapter 3 within my thesis.
Recently. Within this chapter, we discuss methodology, site analysis, and
provide a building program for the proposed structure. So I thought this would
be the perfect topic to discuss in today’s blog!
The methodology
incorporated into this thesis will review case studies, simulation, &
experimental methods. Successful design elements taken from previously reviewed
case studies will be incorporated into the design of this hurricane resistant
mixed-use structure. Simulation will occur as I begin to develop the structure
within the BIM program Revit. Experimental methods will be a very important
part of this project because, after all, this building is supposed to be
hurricane resistant. After the structure is designed, a series of high speed
wind tests will be conducted on the structure, testing its limits.
There
will be 3 categories of building found within the mixed-use building. The 1st
& 2nd level will contain retail space with a food court. Parking
for the residents within the tower will be found on the 3rd-5th
floors, with 1 & 2 bedroom residential apartments above.
