The Site

BIKE RACKS

Site Plan (NTS) by: Coar studio

University of Manitoba has a facility called UMCycle. This facility was made for students (and the rest of the Winnipeg community) to be encouraged to use their bikes to move around the city. They offer services such as bike repair, bike workshop and retail.

G

BIKE LOCKERS

The site is beside the parking lot close to the Faculty of Architecture. Lancelot Coar’s studio was appointed to make a design-build project relative to this.The proposal is to expand the existing Bike Service Kiosk and add programmes such as bike workshop, bike storage, decking for customer circulation and bike Retail (this project). Behind this project are Kristia Villanueva, Violet Jiang and Meighan Giesbrecht.

Phase 1: Design Charette: Concept To start this project, the studio conducted an individual design charette. It was afterwards consolidated in a collaborative fashion with assigned groups, who then communicated with the UMCycle’s manager (Anna Weier). Anna discussed the constraints that came with the project. One of which is security. Therefore, the first idea was inspired by jukebox/vending machines, wherein people could see the bike but would not be able to touch them until an employee opens the structure up to show the bike as per customers’ requests.

Memories of childhood and biking: how can this bike (while being secured) structure be as playful and inviting as possible?

The structure is off-the-grid. Therefore, it needs daylight to make the bike display effective 24/7.

17

Structural Framing There was an idea that came with regards to using gussets for framing the structure. Therefore, this opened up some more changes in the structure’s form.

During the interims, the studio had a very interesting conversation about how architecture should approach the community. The old layout, (see above) did not seem to create its function of accommodating it in a full sense. Therefore, it was decided (tentatively) to move the bike sale structure to the other side of the Extended Education Building, closer to the Trans Canada bike trail.

20

Sketch by: Lancelot Coar during a meeting with the studio. This sketch attempts to still create a possibility of still having the bike sale structure in place with the rest of the programmes.

Therefore, we continued brainstorming about how to consolidate the structural forms of the structures as a whole, and how their roof lines will align with each other.

Foundation System

4x4 U-CHANNEL STEEL ANCHOR HEAD

The structure was then, relocated to the other side of Extended Education building. Therefore, the group had to think of a way to create a different foundation for the structure. It is situated onto an existing pavement. So, I (Kristia) researched on how to bolt the structure onto the ground.

Research: Framing System (cont’d) The group had great interest in creating a water feature on the side of the structure, which faces Extended Education’s student lounge (see page 22).

32

The waterfall wall created a few conflicts with feasibility. Therefore, Lancelot Coar proposed a butterfly roof that still accommodates the idea of having a water feature in the structure.

33

Phase 5: Pre-Fab/ Installation Site Excavation & Prep

With guidance from Lancelot Coar and Andrew Lovatt from University of Manitoba’s Physical Plant, I observed the site’s constraints through seeing where the gas, water and electricity lines go under the ground.

Bike Sale’s site consisted of bike racks that are located in front of it. Therefore, they were needed to also be relocated to another useful location.

This drawing (bike racks in red) shows where the bike racks are proposed to be relocated.

Phase 5: Pre-Fab/ Installation Roof & Gutter Details

A regular commercial gutter does not accommodate the building’s need for a butterfly drainage system. Therefore, it was decided that we needed to customize a gutter system. The following images is a series of versions of gutter folds that would fit into the butterfly form. This started as a flat and simple form and evolved into a more functional form that would invite the desired water drainage.

Material: 1/8� Stainless steel.

Initial fold: flat and rectangular.

Next: figuring out how to fold the gutter with a sloping base.

Final fold layout of the desired form of gutter system.

Iterations: Cladding

Initially, the group wanted to use cement board cladding in the north facade to create familiar visuals with the sorrounding existing buildings.

Then, it moved onto the idea of recreating a pattern of the mural existing on the facade of the Bike Kiosk (see page 5).

52

53

Site and Structure Prep for Transport The structure was built in CAST with a seam in the middle to make it easier to transport to the site. Therefore, the group, along with Dylan Hewlett, built bracing for structural stability when it leans onto a fork lift.

Cross bracing in the middle of the structure.

54

The group began to test lifting the structure with a pallet jack, with the use of a crowbar and wood shims and blocks.

55

Transport to Site With the help of Physical Plant, the structure was successfully moved to the site with the use of a forklift and teamwork.
