STUDIO OVERVIEW

Welcome to Studio 7: Emergency Response

1/ STUDIO OVERVIEW

STUDIO OVERVIEW

“What does it mean to provide care for the community in times of emergency and provide adaptable space of refuge for these carers and the community?“ This Integrated Design Studio will explore the future possibilities of Ambulance Station design in regional settings of Victoria. Students will have opportunities to interact with Ambulance Victoria as clients, industry consultant partners and work in collaboration with Faculty of Engineering to elevate their construction and building performance knowledge.

CLIENT:

Ambulance Victoria Design for an ambulance branch will be welcomed in the first instance, by Ambulance Victoria as it replaces its current building portfolio of some of its approximately 250 ambulance stations across Victoria, and beyond the confines of Ambulance Victoria. AV is a member of the Council of Ambulances Australia, a national peak body that is also keen for leadership in sustainability – via both social and environmental responsibility and environmentally sustainable design. https://canvas.lms.unimelb.edu.au/courses/111877/pages/studio-07-information

4 : Studio 7 _ E.R.

CONSULTANT:

Atelier Ten, ESD Consultants Conceptually, ‘net positive’ ambulance branch designs will provide for the full energy needs of the building occupants and for the rapid charging of a predictable ratio of electric vehicles from renewable energy sources.

A challenge will be for the energy to be secure and reliable so that operations are never interrupted. Ideally, these would be adapted to function within a distributed energy resource network which is resilient and operates positively within the social fabric of its remote or regional community context. With this positive energy resilience in mind, it may also operate as a community hub or asset in times of need.

TYOPOLOGY:

Ambulance Branch, Kit-of-Parts modular system Building for the Future will deliver design options for ‘net positive carbon’ ambulance stations within a constrained budget that can be modulated to a variety of land settings using a ‘kit of parts’ approach to achieve high function operationally together with comfort for its staff. Utilising pre-fabrication technologies can move the building towards zero onsite waste and benchmark environmentally sustainable design priorities.

RESEARCH AMBULANCE VICTORIA DESIGN GUIDELINES • • • • • • • • •

Comprised of 350 locations Net-zero carbon by 2050 Layout of recreation spaces and offices to garage is of high importance Paramedics perform 10-14 hr shifts Acoustically sound bedrooms and offices needed Single level building preferred (no stairs) Bedrooms must have windows to avoid ‘cells’ Ambulances enter garage driving forwards, no reversing.

3 phase power systems

•

• • • •

Concrete driveways for ambulances, permeable driveways/footpaths can be used for personal cars Electric ambulances and cars to be integrated within 10 years Garage doors are ‘face’ of ambulance branch 15 minute response time to reach cases 2-8 staff on premises at one time

USER COMMENTS: WHAT DOESN’T WORK •

• • •

Bedrooms are located too close to recreation rooms or main road and are too loud More training spaces More outdoor areas for quite contemplation and biophilic connection Lights and power left on with no one in station to keep a constant temperature

MODULAR PANEL DESIGN PANEL OVER VOLUMETRIC A modular panel system was investigated over a volumetric system as it offers more flexibility in design and future extensions and allowance for larger branches.

Studio Bark has developed a panelised system (U-Build) that clients can put together themselves with simple tools ... Although a system that A.V members would have to build

is not ideal, I like the simplicity and ‘put together’ look the modules create.

The 2017 Solar Decathlon winning team devised a system of solar facade panels on modular components, that tilt up to the sun as the form needs to open. This will also be integrated into the final design to fit with the panel system.

CHOSEN LAYOUT Branch layout has been mirrored to sit on Northern site boundary instead of southern. This flip allows uninterrupted winter sun to penetrate living spaces evenly, with deciduous vines on northern facade to protect from summer sun.

Wetlands at rear of branch create a tranquil oasis and cross over between carpark and paramedic entrance at rear.

Garage still has uninterrupted access to road.

Restrooms branch off living area with acoustically sound walls to avoid noise penetration. Reed filtering system for rainfall and grey water acts as passive cooling system from northern winds through summer.

New layout adheres to 1500 wide moduar panel system.

76 : Studio 7 _ E.R.

Overall carbon created by project can be almost offset with a 4kW PV system.

Biggest users of energy/ carbon are hot water systems and choice of appliances (TV, stove, lights, etc).

All must be taken into account for updated design to reach net zero carbon.

ESD SYSTEMS: WATER REUSE HYDROPONIC & ANTHROPONIC GARDENS An investigation of hydroponic (water only growing) and anthroponic gardening (filtered and treated black water) was undertaken to see if it was possible to incorporate black water safely with a community garden at the front of the branch.

Due to grey water needing extensive treatment to be reused in toilets and bathrooms and the added caution of using blackwater on site and regular maintenance of treatment systems needed, the idea was been disregarded and other reuses of water will be investigated.

Systems used: • • • •

82 : Studio 7 _ E.R.

Rainwater harvesting Stromwater collection from green roof Greywater reuse through reed filled wetland Blackwater treatment via composting toilets

ESD SYSTEMS: REED FILTRATION SYSTEM How The System Works:

Water collected from rainfall and grey water from shower, sinks and kitchen will be directed to tanks and reed beds to vertically filter water to a sub-soil irrigation system that distributes collected water to on site wetlands. Vertical filtration will be used over horizontal filtration as it doesn’t allow the water to stagnate and become od orous or need as much maintenance.
