Campus

PART 1 : In context

01.1 Abstract:

This stage aims to summarize the problems of the current situation of the campus. and focus on studying the opportunities and challenges in the host city. Also discuss the reasons of Needed to integration campus . Problems and solution strategiesarediscussedat3levels:

1. macro level (external setting of the campus (ownership , boundaries, edges, neighborhood, landmark ,linkages andfocalpoint).

2. micro level (internal layout of thecampus)

3. buildingcomponent. Finally, similar examples were briefly reviewed to summarize the strategies.

01.2 Methodology:

The spatial analysis method was used with emphasis on Kevin Lynch's theory. The primary data was collected through questionnaires and personal interviews, with officials and students, the report of the development strategy of the medical complex was reviewed. Finally, compare the current situation with similar examples.

01.3 Needed to integration campus:

The college is designed to benefit from it to develop health work in Khartoum Hospital. The relationship between the hospital and the facilities around it is integrative. The campus extends into the cityandthecityextendsintothecampus. Students are trained in health facilities in the city, and professors work in nearby hospitals.

Historical review:

(governor general of Sudan from 1898 to 1899) on his last visit to the country in the summer of 1914, but the plans were temporarily suspended during the First World War. Following Kitchener’s death at sea in 1916, the decision was made to name the proposed medical school in his honour. A site in Khartoum was donated by the government, and construction began in 1922. The new school was opened bythe governor general Sir Lee Stack on 29 February 1924, with Khartoum Hospital (established in 1908) becoming the main teaching hospital.

The first faculty members at the new Sudanese school were doctors from the government’s Sudan Medical Service and staff from the Wellcome Research Laboratories, which was establishedinKhartoumin1903.

Plot shape :The shape of the square plots resulting from the grid layout. The plots of land were divided into large areas, even residential ones, ranging from6000to9000squaremeters Pattern : Buildings are organized into groups according to their scale: large course grain (in red), medium grain (in grey) and fine grain (in black). The course grain

Current situation:

Thechangeoflanduse,comparedtothe past, from residential areas to commercial areas and institutions, and the reason for this change is that the social and economic situation of the country led to like this needs , also the urban growth that happened and expansion was a reason for this. The faculty of medicine, university of KhartoumandKhartoumhospitalwere A center from all over the country for treatment , the region had visitors and guests in large numbers, that refer to the changethatoccurred.. The population density increased as a result and with the emergence of horizontal and vertical urban expansion. in this figure the orange color represents high buildings and the violet color representslowbuildings. the red zone represent the high-density areawhichthecampusareincludeinit. . 03.3

• established as the College of Philadelphia in 1740, is one of the nine colonial colleges chartered before the U.S. Declaration of Independence.

• n the 1750s, roughly forty percent of Penn students needed lodging as they came from areas too far to commute including other colonies in the South or the West Indies

• In 1765, the campus was expanded by the opening of the newly completed dormitory run

• With respect to the desire to compete with peer institutions to attract students from across the nation. The campus was expands

03.1. Campus in context

• Half a century ago, when the university was threatening to relocate out-of-town to Chester County, the municipality offered generous use of

• urban renewal powers to raze adjacent AfroAmerican neighborhoods,

• As Penn’s campus grew more splendid it became an island of privilege in a sea of poverty.

• Problems of trespass and muggings,

• culminating in two highly publicized

• murders

• prompted a policy shift set out to realign the university with the needs of its immediate neighbors.

• Street re-openings, reorientation of building fronts and backs, retail developments large and small serving both campus and neighborhood

• bridges of connectivity

• Welcoming edge

• expand the university estate and enlarge the public realm of the city with parks and open spaces

• town-gown compacts

• community partnerships

• street corridors along campus edges

• general public encouragement to make the university a destination place16

03.1. Campus in context

• shift from a defensive, securitydriven enclave into an extrovert partner, regenerating its urban setting through spatial connectivity and practical collaboration

• Founded in 1943

• 1945 it became apparent that a university campus was necessary. For that reason, a master plan was commissioned to Enrique de la Mora and on February 3, 1947.

• on February 1, 1989, the first university ever connected to the Internet in both Latin America.

• Cities who compete for investment and jobs in a global marketplace have come to appreciate how a locally embedded university can enhance their productivity and competitiveness

• A desire to reintegrate hitherto discrete land use cells with the urban matrix has many parallels in the retail sector, transport planning and housing estates, but the theme of connectivity has particular resonance for higher education

• strong links with a host city facilitate

• knowledge transfer

• fluidity of the information creative symbiosis between region and campus depends on everyday encounter and shared lifestyle

• effect of the knowledgeeconomy is to break down conventional boundaries between campus and city. In the newest developments the two may be as

1. FUNCTION

Urban functions consist of the entirety of activities exercised within an urban area and across the space over which it extends. The study of urban functions makes it possible to characterize urban space and study its dynamics. Itincludes : (Communication – securityclimatic - comfort - relaxationpassive engagement - active engagement-discovery – variety).

2 . DENSITY

3 . PERMEABILITY

Permeability or connectivity describes the extent to which urbanformspermit(orrestrict)the movementof people orvehiclesin differentdirections.

4 . ROBUSTNESS

It means that the space accept functions and differentactivities;

5. IDENTITY

6. INTEGRATION

place identity mainly concerns the physical image and people’s perception with little emphasis on the degree of people-place association and the depth of meanings. Research in the realm of environmental psychology mostly connects place attachment to self and community identity and distinction.

For instance, Gasparini's (2004) research on place identity was conducted in Bilbao where the urban landscape is formed by a combination of modern and historical architecture. The findings of the research showed that both innovative design and built heritage contribute to the image and identity of the city equally, as perceived by the citizens and tourists.

Integrated urban planning is a modern planning approach close connected with the complex nature of the cities and the necessity of creating sustainable and resilient settlements. Research has shown that the implementation of integrated urban planning is directly connected to the socio-economic conditions, legal frameworks, technology, and professional and educational potentials of societies, which differ for each country. Research has shown, through concrete examples, that the practice of integrated planning is more prevalent in cities in EU countries than in postsocialist countries.

7. SENSE OF PLACE

It means subjective incredibility and the significance of urban places; Sense of place is determined by personal experiences, social interactions, and identities.

10.LIVEABILITY

legibility is the degree to which the designed features of the environment aid people in creating an effective mental image, or "cognitive map" of the spatial relationships withinabuilding,andthesubsequenteaseof wayfindingwithintheenvironment. These fiveelementswhenproperlydesigned and organized in space represent an assurance that the design is legible: Path, Edge,Landmark,District,andNodeasdefined byLynch. Paths:Streets,sidewalks,trails,and otherchannelsinwhichpeopletravel. 9. FLEXIBILITY

is the characterization of urban liveability as a human behavioural function that denotes the interaction between individuals and the environment.Inthissense,urbanliveabilityisauniquecaseofliveability atlargeandhasstrongtiestothenotionofurbanity.

The concept of flexibility in urbanism includes the following. Firstly, it reflects the conceptof dynamics, whichcanmake urban planning adapt to various changes in uncertain contexts. Secondly, it reflects the concept of coordination. One of the important features of urban planning is diversityandcomplexity.

11. PERSONALIZATION

Itmeansthatresidentsand citizens should be able to somehow “put their mark on the city", and own and personalize it to them in a way

12. VISUAL APPROPRIATENESS:

It means the appropriateness of the visual character of the environment to the function of the meaning mentioned;

05.2. STRATEGY

Thediscussionandbrainstormingphaseis over with A set of strategies focus on the urban setting, the relationship with the campus, the built surraoundig, corridors of movement, and public spaces. The strategy takes integrating with the environment very seriously. The general idea focuses on making the most of urban opportunities around the campus and developing them for the benefit of the student community and citizens. Buildings: The strategy focuses on protecting the cultural heritage of the (old) building and reusing it as a cultural building open to the public. Creating a visual identity for the buildings that act as an urban pattern for the campus.``

05.3. INTERVENTION

The interventions included the urban perimeter of the university, Al-Qasir Street, ARMY Street and Al-Jamie Street. It was developed by reusing the street as a public space. In order to revive the streets and solve the problemofsafety. Paths and realm The corridors are designed in the direction of improving accessibility, eligibility, physical and human permeability in different layers.

Interventions at the level of public and open spaces on different layers with mixed, flexible and varied uses. It changesbasedonstudents'needs.

Path 2. is on higher level (lifted path ) connecting the campus with each other parts and to make an public spaces on lifted level to have a good distribution ofexperiencesinthecampus.

The public spaces consist of a network of corridors that form nodes The network has been developed to provide connectivity The node contains a range of
