Announcement

Hello everyone,

There will be meetings with Prof. Barajas tomorrow by building type starting with:

• High-rise
• Mixed used
• Stadium
• Architecture School
• Transit hub
• Spiritual

As a reminder, we will have the usual PM meeting at 12:00 PM We will talk about the logistics and catering for final presentation

Versa will finish the highway to a 100% by the end of the studio period.

Since last Thursday individual teams had meetings with Prof. Barajas so we didn't had a chance to meet in order to audit the site model.  Therefore, we will do that tomorrow.

If you should have any suggestions post in the comment box below.

Meeting minute and update

Please check Derived's blog. (Updated sketch-up model should be found there)


In the meeting yesterday the status with the model was discussed regarding TOTAL COMPLETION and placement for the time when individual groups will start building their models.

• On Thursday, all PM's will audit the model and decide which components have to be re-crafted. (During the meeting we decided to cut the polystyrene.  However, Josh Jimenez volunteered to start cutting it.)  This task should be done by Thursday at the end of class.
• By next Tuesday, Versa will have completed to a 100% the highway.

Next Tuesday's meeting will be regarding organization for final presentation.  Please be punctual at 12:00PM

I would also like to remind ALL senior studio students to let know their PM's anything that might be important for each in order to discuss this in meetings.   From NOW, anyone who comes in the meeting not being a PM or a member of Derived will be asked to leave.  If someone wants to be present, they must ask their PM for permission to be present in the meeting at least 2 days before the PM meeting. The PM must ask then to the rest of the PM'S for permission.  For one voting no, then the permission will be denied.  

Tuesday March 15th meeting

There was a meeting on Tuesday where Urbanistiq, Symbiosis and Derived were present.


The remaining teams were not represented in this meeting.  


The decisions taken were the following:


1. We need to cut the polystyrene and ALL project managers must be present.  Prof. Brown has the cutter that we will use.  This tool will be available at request on the day that we cut the polystyrene. The decision was that all project managers have to be present.


2. The highway details need to get done.... we also have to bring this site model ready for the plug ins from each team. 


I also want to ask everyone to please take care of the model.  The plastic was placed in order to keep our site model clean.  So please, lets all try to keep the plastic in place.


Thanks everyone,


(I would like to remind everyone that there will be a meeting next tuesday March 22nd at 12:00PM )

AUTOCAD BLOCKING and SKETCHUP MODEL


THANKS TO EVERYONE,

DON'T FORGET THE MEETING NEXT TUESDAY AT 12:00 PM

Site plan printing

Hello Everyone,

As said in class last Tuesday the professors asked that we print a site inventory to the scale of our model.

The best way to go with this is the following:

For each team to do the massing on autocad of each building in the area that they built for the model.  This would have to include a legend with the buildings in the area and if they are historic or not, etc.

Geodesics would take the block that was left lingering last time
Symbiosis and Urbanistiq would coordinate with Derived so that they give you a section of the downtown area to do inventory on.

Attached is the autocad file to scale with just blocking. The file is found in the following link:

This site inventory shouldn't take more than 1 hour to get done if everyone is well organized.  Let's have a meeting with all PM's as soon as possible. The due date to get all the blocks to Paola Muniz is Friday.

Thanks to all for your COLLABORATION!!
