BACKGROUND Plate Number: MIDTERMS-01 Plate Title: “SPORTS COMPLEX AND ATHLETHE’S

VILLAGE” INTRODUCTION: STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM As part of the massive infrastructure of the current administration, it has been one of its pilot project to decongest Metro Manila from economic and Recreational Activities ,North Luzon offers an ideal relocation for recreational and Sports facilities so as to reduce the inlock of activities in the metropolis. The government pinpointed an area of the proposed Clark Global City to be converted into an alternative site for these events. The local Government and the national government along with the Bases conversion Development Authority (BCDA) agreed on a Memorandum of Understanding and Agreement for the proposed project. Strategically, the project site opportunities for world class performance and sports center fro the country. The proposed project is to be funded under a Build-Operate-Transfer scheme by JICA through the bilateral agreement of the Philippines and Japan.

The project: The Proposed project is a world-class Sports Complex with an Athletes Village designed to cater to international sports spectre such as FIBA ,Asian Games, World Cups and even Olympic Games. There will be three buildings to serve as venue for the sporting events: an Athletic Stadium, Aquatic Center for water sports, A multi-functional Gymnasium and a planned unit development of the Athletes Village. Along with three primary building sought to be constructed are support facilities and buildings that may be introduced to further improve the function of th whole project development.

OBJECTIVES DESIGN OBJECTIVES a. Optimum Site Planning b. Vehicular and Pedestrian circulation including parking provisions for large crowd c. Philippine Architectural Character showcasing the Filipino ingenuity towards sports, culture and international relations. d. Aesthetics in terms of place making, landmarks, and skyline characterization. e. Considrations on the use of Solar,Wind alternative electric power sources and other sustainable strategies.

f. Compliance on the International and local standards for sports facilities and planned development for the housing of the Athlethes. g. Consideration in the use of Modern technologies applicable to the project h. Proviion for landscaping,enhancement of vista, and site preservation.. ARCHITECTURAL OBJECTIVES 

ORIENTATION

Proper location of every space and structure according to its function, base from the sun path and wind flow to have an efficient design strategy 

VENTILATION

The prevailing winds affect the thermal condition on the structure, proper location of openings and open area for thermal comfort of the structures 

LIGHTING

Ambiance, brightness and mood are the effects of the sunlight on the structure, openings and proper location of window for direct sunlight to easily access through the structure. 

ACCESSIBILITY

Entrance and exit point road networks, providing a circular path for definite vehicular and pedestrian circulation within the site to avoid traffic and improvisation of ramps and alike inconsideration for handicapped users. 

ANTHROPOMETRIC

Every space, facility and furniture is based on the comfortability of the users. 

AESTHETICS

Contemporary design that would best fit for the sports complex. 

ENVIRONMENT

Landscapes that controls the mood of the site inconsideration of its surrounding.

PLANNING CONCEPT Incorporating radial design planning in the sports complex to maximize the space and properly

orient the buildings in the site. In consideration of the natural lighting and ventilation, radial planning would best suit in achieving the passive cooling within the site

STRUCTURAL CONCEPT A three-dimensional steel building frame which is stable against wind and quake loads. Three-dimensional truss is based on the rigidity of the triangle and composed of linear elements subjected only to compression or tension. Its simplest spatial unit is tetrahedron having four joints and six members. A space frame forms, a very strong, thick, flexible structural fabric that can be used horizontally or bend to a variety of shapes. The beauty of its open lattice work web of lightweight tubular diagonals is only superpassed by its structural purity

DESIGN BRIEF 3.1

DESIGN CONSIDRATIONS AND REQUIREMENTS

3.2

DESIGN CONCEPTS

BASIC CONCEPT

1. Stadium -

“Agila” The sun with 8 rays The Philippines National Animal and the inspiration of the retractable roof of the stadium. The stadium’s retractable roof when opened resembles a single strand of the agila’s feather. (see sketch attachment) And when closed, it resembles the national flag’s sun and its 8 rays.

2. Aquatics -

-

-

“Barong” The Water element/waves The Aquatic Center's design will consist of a roof similar to the waves of the seas. The roofing will be made from polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), a fiberglass material used for its lightweight property, durability, and weather resistance. We intend to cover the facility but still let natural light into its interior. The roof design resembles waves and also represent the flowing character of the water element. A relatable concept for an aquatic center. We intended the facade to resemble the pattern of the “Barong Tagalog” , an embroidered formal shirt and considered the national dress of the Philippines. And that it really symbolizes the rich culture of the Philippines.

-

3. Gymnasium - “parol” -

-

A parol is an ornamental, star-shaped Christmas lantern from the Philippines. It is traditionally made out of bamboo and paper and comes in various sizes and shapes, which symbolizes the ethnicity and diversity of athletes from the different parts of asia,and the worls. But generally the basic star pattern remains dominant. The design of the parol evokes the Star of Bethlehem that guided the Three Kings to the manger

***The main color of the Stadium is yellow, the Aquatics Center with blue , and the Gymnasium with its red. Together they symbolizes the Philippine flag’s colors and the Architectural Character showcasing the Filipino ingenuity towards sports, culture and international relations.***

4. THE ATHLETES VILLAGE - Accommodation spaces for athletes and officials participating in competitions, conference venue - 700 Accommodating and PW- Friendly rooms - We also placed parks around the village and the whole site itself , where our athletes would go to relax and unwind, also to jog and maybe train.
