KANDILI A proposed Evacuation Center DESIGN CONCEPT

Understandably, natural ventilation in buildings provides fresh air to the interiors, ensuring the evacuees a safe, livable and comfortable temporary stay on the structure By installing long horizontal louver windows on the perimeter of the building, it will also lessen the energy costs by becoming less reliant to artificial cooling In the same vein, natural lighting also has major paybacks for the electricity costs aside from it being essential to the interior s ambience

Considering the dimensions of the structure, natural source of energy was also implemented. It reduces the energy imports and use of fossil fuels hence; it helps the facility to be more sustainable as it accommodates huge number of users Correlating, movement of the people and its access to different areas indicates an imperative factor to the building Its circulation provides easy flow traffic between room departments that supply an easy navigation to the users

Moreover, natural phenomena do not ponder nor select a specific type of human, thus considering accessibility to all pathway were properly observed. It is to assure that all humankind were fairly treated as to satisfy their needs behind the effects of the natural actions

Henceforth, all the design considerations mentioned above were successfully taken into account without ignoring the structural aspect of the building The Structural design has always been crucial to any construction projects hence, it is the safety of the end-users that needs to be majorly considered.
