INDUSTRIAL BUILDING DESIGN
What is industrial building design?
To develop a built environment based on an undefined building typology.
The structure functions on the business programming of the managing engineers. The area brief depends on the maximum and minimum space requirements per function unit.
Industry:
Industry, a group of productive enterprises or organizations that produce or supply goods, services, or sources of income. In economics, industries are customarily classified as primary, secondary, and tertiary; secondary industries are further classified as heavy and light.
Secondary Industry
This sector, also called manufacturing industry,
(1) takes the raw materials supplied by primary industries and processes them into consumer goods, or
(2) further processes goods that other secondary industries have transformed into products, or
(3) builds capital goods used to manufacture consumer and non consumer goods. Secondary industry also includes energy-producing industries (e.g., hydroelectric industries) as well as the construction industry.
Secondary industry may be divided into heavy, or large-scale, and light, or small-scale, industry. Large-scale industry generally requires heavy capital investment in plants and machinery, serves a large and diverse market including other manufacturing industries, has a complex industrial organization and frequently a skilled specialized labour force, and generates a large volume of output. Examples would include petroleum refining, steel and iron manufacturing, motor vehicle and heavy machinery manufacture, cement production, nonferrous metal refining, meat-packing, and hydroelectric power generation.
Light, or small-scale, industry may be characterized by the no durability of manufactured products and a smaller capital investment in plants and equipment, and it may involve nonstandard products, such as customized or craft work. The labor force may be either low skilled, as in textile work and clothing manufacture, food processing, and plastics manufacture, or highly skilled, as in electronics and computer hardware manufacture, precision instrument manufacture, gemstone cutting, and craft work.
Industrial Building Archetype
Designed to house industrial operations and provide the necessary conditions for workers and the operation of industrial equipment.
The modern revolution in science and technology, with its constant progress in the construction of industrial buildings andimproved construction technology, has resulted in an increase in the number of enterprises that do not pollute theenvironment. As a result, a new type of urban development, known as the industrial-residential area, has emerged.
Contrasting in scale, appearance, and silhouette with standarddesign housing, industrial buildings become importantarchitectural highlights in urban development.
Aesthetically, the quality of industrial buildings can be improved by distinctive interior design, sensible proportioninganddivision of enclosed areas, and harmonious choice of structural elements.
Industrial buildings have an enormousand often negativeimpact on natural and architectural landscapes; and industrialregions often become alienated from the natural environment. One task of industrial architecture is thus maximumpreservation of the natural landscape and harmonious introduction of new industrial buildings into the landscape.
The integration of industrial buildings is one of the most efficient means of reducing the estimated costs of constructing them.
In largescale construction, most multistory industrial buildings have three to six floors and ceiling loads of 5to10 kN/m2.When land area is limited, industrial buildings may have ten or more stories.
Modern multistory buildings usually have column networks of 6 m × 6 m, 9 m × 6 m, or 12 m × 6 m, and there is a tendency to use even more extended networks. The total width of multistory industrial buildings is usually 36–48 m.
In multistory buildings designed for processes with strict requirements for air purity and temperature and humidity stability, technical floors are constructed for engineering equipment and supply lines; the supply lines may be located within the trusses of intermediate floors.
There is a tendency tomakegreater use of multistory industrial buildings in industrial construction because of the need to economize on urban sites and lands suitable for agricultural use.
wide spread standardization of design may serve as the basis for a transition to total prefabricated construction of industrial buildings from structures and elements manufactured in factory construction combines. Modern construction is characterized by a tendency to minimize the weight of structural members in order to reduce consumption of materials and the cost of construction and installation. In line with this, the reinforced concrete structural members used in industrial buildings are being improved through the use of high-strength concrete and concrete with light-weight aggregates.
Metal structures are being improved through the use of high strength steel and aluminum alloys and thin walled rolled and bent sections. Improvement of metal structures is also related to the introduction of prestressed metal structures and the construction of light-weight industrial building systems that make use of thin sheet covered surfaces.
SITE CONTEXT
Bahadurgarh is a developing town near the outskirts of the capital city, Delhi. The town is rich with agricultural activities. There are several institutions present in its direct vicinity. Religious activities are followed in Hindu temples present in various corners of the town.
MIE is an industrial hub joint with Delhi-Rohtak corridor. There is diverse variety of industrial work in this area
To motivate the growth of institutional strength, if good job opportunities are provided along with aid to globalization; the town would boost up and all the agriculture activities and small to medium scale industries can be brought together to boon the growth of our nation.
If a large scale industry is introduced which is energy efficient and produces low pollution; it can bring in people together in a healthy business relationship and can cast good income to existing culture and bring in outsiders which would lead to more development.
Business Approach And Concept
Client brief is tabulated on the basis of functions of the works to be delivered by the client with benefit of built environment to be provided by the architect.
Purchaser brief is tabulated on the basis of all plausible outcomes of works that the client wants to deliver.
Categories of zones are formulated on the basis of the proposed work environment and area requirements are derived.
Area Statement
BUSINESS CONCEPT
Let’s start it from a client’s point of view — If someone wants to start up a restaurant of their own they would either want to set up a franchise unit or have their own brand name.
which needs :
o Kitchen Equipments/Machinery
o Special processed ingredients
o Other standard supplies
The plan is to have all in one together and have specific kitchen machinery to produce excluding kitchen stations (which comes under furniture rather than equipment). Few ingredient production along with packaging.
THE NARRATIVE
How I want visitors to experience the built environment
Psychological impact : The visitor should be conscious about the restaurant business and should realize cooking and baking as an art process. The visitor must feel tranquil as he engages himself in the work environment.
Sociological impact : The visitors should understand what entrepreneurship is and should enjoy the how the products are being produced. The space should promote healthy interaction taking in care of private and public spaces.
Industrial building design is based on developing a built environment for secondary sector activities which is based on undefined building typology. The client would do his inventions and ask for a certain built form according to the space requirements of functions that would lead to a productive manufacturing of his invention.
The hard work for production needs a work-oriented environment which is also economical and sustainable. The built construction should be environment friendly that avoids widespread of pollution.
There is a requirement for good recreational spaces to aid a peaceful mindset for working people in midst of constructing different and new products.
The built environment should be made healthy and accommodate adequate services and ventilation. Skylights are a very observed architectural elements of industrial building design since the space requirements are huge and it’s difficult for light to enter through openings hence Trusses as roofing is very suitable and customizable.
Separate zone for power and tanks have to be provided.
Transportation is a challenge to be encountered with a strong priority as it has to be less congested, more productive and environment friendly.
Globalization is an important factor for positioning industrial sites.
Entrepreneurship and industries build on each other together.
DESIGN DEVELOPMENT
Zoning and Spatial Organisation
Radial form
A composition of linear forms extending outwards from a central form in a radial manner.
Clustered form
A collection of forms grouped together by proximity or sharing of similar visual trait
Grid form
A set of modular forms regulated in a three dimensional grid.
Form can be inspired by an existing entity as in the case bird nest inspired by a nest and lotus temple inspired by a flower.
Centralized form
A number of secondary forms clustered around a dominant central parent form
BUILDING EXPRESSION
Circulation and Design Principles
Axis
Axis guides how form can be arranged in a symmetrical or balanced order.
Symmetry
Symmetry creates harmony between two equivalent forms and spaces.
Rhythm
Unifying movement of repetitive space and form allocates the symphony between public and private spaces/forms.
Datum
A datum is performed to organize spaces/form along a line/plane or volume.
Transformation
An architectural entity can be altered by manipulations with specific context without changing the initial identity and concept.
Circulation
Each realm has a main circulation space, which opens up directly from the entrance to the realm.
The entrances to any realm open directly off the circulation space of the next larger realm.
