THE COMPETITION HELD BY LIPOR, IN 2018, CONSISTED OF THE THEME: “CONCESSION OF THE PROCESS OF COVERING AND LANDSCAPING ARRANGEMENT OF NORTH ALVEOLUS OF MAIA SANITARY LANDFILL”.

THE LANDFILL IN QUESTION IS LOCATED IN CRESTINS, MUNICIPALITY OF MAIA, AND BELONGS TO THE FACILITIES OF LIPOR II, WHERE IS LOCATED THE MAIA ENERGY RECOVERY CENTER (CVE). THE NORTH ALVEOLUS IS THE LANDFILL WHERE WAS DEPOSITED SLAG AND INERTED ASH (AFTER THE RECOVERY OF FERROUS MATERIALS) RESULTED BY CVE ACTIVITIES. MAIN FEATURES OF ATERRO DA MAIA: TOTAL AREA OF 3 HECTARES; 15 METERS HIGH FROM THE BASE TO THE TOP; SIGNIFICANTLY BROAD TOP, PRACTICALLY FLAT AND FREE FROM ANY OBSTRUCTION, WHICH CAUSES AN INTENSE CIRCULATION OF WINDS IN THE SITE; THE STEEP LANDFILL TOPOGRAPHY REQUIRES STRATEGIES FOR SOIL CONTAINMENT AND STABILITY IN THE SLOPES TO PROTECT IT FROM EROSION.

TO ELABORATE THE PROPOSAL WAS CONSIDERED THE NATURAL CONDITIONS OF THE SITE: PREVAILING WINDS ALVÉOLO NORTE - ATERRO SANITÁRIO DA MAIA - LIPOR II

FROM THE NORTHWEST DIRECTION; MORE INTENSE AND PROLONGED SOLAR INCIDENCE FROM THE SOUTH; SLOPES PRESENT IN THE TOPOGRAPHY OF THE LANDFILL, AT THE CORNERS OF WEST FACE, WHICH CONFIGURE TWO EXISTING ACCESSES THAT CONNECT RUA DA LIPOR

TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THAT THE COMPANY LIPOR HAS POLYPROPYLENE AND TONS OF SLAG AS RAW MATERIAL, WE CHOSE TO USE THESE MATERIALS IN THE COMPOSITION OF THE SLOPE CONTAINMENT MODULES (1/4 AGGREGATE + 3/4 SLAG). A CHEAP, SUSTAINABLE AND DURABLE PRODUCTION SOLUTION.

CONSTRUCTIVE DETAILS HEXAGONAL MODULES - SOLAR PANELS (6M DIAMETER MODULES; PANELS 1M X 2M SIZE)

THE INTRODUCTION OF PHOTOVOLTAIC PANELS ALL ORIENTED TO THE SOUTH DIRECTION IS PROPOSED FOR THE MAXIMUM USE OF SOLAR RADIATION. IN THE HEXAGONAL MODULES WOULD BE ATTACHED METAL CORRIDORS FOR MAINTENANCE. SOIL THICKNESS 70CM (ALLOWS PLACEMENT OF SPECIES UP TO 1M HEIGHT)

CONSTRUCTIVE DETAILS SUPPORT VASES (VASES 6M X 3M SIZE)

STEEL STRUCTURE - I-BEAM - BOLTED CONNECTION SLAB BEAM RAFT FOUNDATION (50% SLAG TRACE)

ON THE DEVELOPMENTE OF THE GREENHOUSES DESIGN, WE OPTED FOR THE MODULAR CONCEPT, WHERE THE COMBINATION OF SEVERAL MODULES COULD RESULT IN THE CREATION OF MODERN AND INNOVATIVE CONSTRUCTIONS. SUCH A SOLUTION WOULD BE A STRATEGY TO REDUCE THE COST OF THE WORK AND TO FACILITATE THE EXECUTION, AS THE STANDARDIZATION OF STRUCTURAL PARTS (ESPECIALLY GLASS FRAMES) GENERATES EASE OF MANUFACTURE AND ASSEMBLE, AND REDUCE THE COMPLEXITY OF THE PROJECT. IN ADDITION, THE FACT THAT THEY ARE MODULAR AND BOLTED STEEL STRUCTURE ALLOWS THE GREENHOUSES TO BE EASILY EXTENDED IF NECESSARY.

DR AIN AG E THE WATER IS DRAINED OUTWARDS OR INTO STORAGE TANKS IN ORDER NOT TO COMPROMISE THE STRUCTURE OF THE LANDFILL (FORMED BY SLAG AND INERTED ASH). THE MODELING DIRECTS THE WATER TO THE PATHWAYS, WHICH HAS A 2% INCLINATION, WHICH ALLOWS THE FLOW TO ONE OF THE SIDES (AS SHOWN IN PLAN). ALONG THE SLOPING SIDE, A DRAINING DITCH (EASILY ACCESSIBLE AND CLEANABLE) WAS IMPLEMENTED, FACILITATING THE FLOW OF WATER UNTIL IT ENTERS IN A RAINWATER HARVESTING SYSTEM.

WATER STORAGE TANKS OF THE GREENHOUSES (WATER FILTRATION - REUSE - IRRIGATION) ALL DRAINAGE IS MADE TO OUTWARDS THE LANDFILL (REDUCED RISK OF LEACHATE, LESS COMPACTED SOIL)

BIO DIV E R S IT Y THE CRITERION FOR CHOOSING THE SPECIES WERE NOT ONLY THE AESTHETICS BUT THE FAUNA THAT EACH TYPE OF PLANT ATTRACTS, AIMING TO PROMOTE BIODIVERSITY. PRIORITY WAS GIVEN TO THOSE THAT REQUIRES LITTLE MAINTENANCE, AS THE COMPANY DEMANDED THAT THE PROPOSAL WAS INTENDED FOR A FUNCTIONAL AND SHORT-STAY WORKPLACE.

PUBLIC SPACE PROJECT Adjustment proposal for Parque de Real - Matosinhos, Porto, Portugal.

INAUGURATED IN 2001, PARQUE DE REAL HAS ABOUT 4.5 HA. IT DEVELOPS ON A SLOPE, CUTED BY A WATER LINE BETWEEN CONCRETE WALLS. IN ITS SURROUNDINGS PREVAILS THE MULTIFAMILY AND SINGLE FAMILY HOUSING. IT WAS DESIGNED BY MATOSINHOS CITY COUNCIL TOGETHER WITH THE PORTO METRO.

S W OT A N A LYSI S - S TR E NGTH S, W E A K NE S S E S, O PPOR T UN IT IES, T HR EAT S TO UNDERSTAND THE USES AND DYNAMICS OF THE SPACE AND ITS SURROUNDINGS, INTERVIEWS WERE CONDUCTED WITH THE PRESIDENT OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION OF BIQUINHA, WITH A PROFESSOR FROM ONE OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD SCHOOLS AND WITH A CYCLIST WHO IS A MEMBER OF BTT (EXISTING CYCLING CLUB IN THE PARK).

FROM THE INTERVIEWS, VISITS AND ANALYSIS OF THE STUDY AREA, A “SWOT ANALYSIS” WAS ELABORATED, HIGHLIGHTING THE MAIN FEATURES ABOUT THE PLACE:

S TR E NGTH S THE TOPOGRAPHY PROVIDES INTERESTING VISUALS FROM VARIOUS POINTS IN THE PARK; EXISTENCE OF A CHANNELED STREAM.; COLLECTIVE GARDEN IN OPERATION; EXISTING EUCALYPTUS GROVE; PRESENCE OF BTT, A CYCLING CLUB THAT ORGANIZES CYCLING EVENTS IN THE PARK.

O P P O R TUN IT IES THE PARK IS WIDELY USED AS A CROSSING TO METRO STOPS; EASY ACCESS: CLOSE TO TWO METRO STOPS AND SEVERAL BUS STOPS; PROXIMITY TO PARQUE DA CIDADE; PRESENCE OF THE RESIDENTS ASSOCIATION OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD OF BIQUINHA IN THE IMMEDIATE SURROUNDINGS; RESIDENTIAL AREA; PRESENCE OF SEVERAL EDUCATIONAL CENTERS IN THE SURROUNDINGS, MAINLY PRIMARY AND SECONDARY SCHOOLS.

W E A K NE S S E S UNUSED AND ABANDONED BUILDINGS; BAD ODOR FROM UNTREATED WATER OF THE CHANNELLED STREAM;

TH R E ATS

DETERIORATED AREAS WITHOUT MAINTENANCE; LACK OF EQUIPMENT AND URBAN FURNITURE; POOR LIGHTING; ILLEGAL APPROPRIATION OF PART OF THE LAND;

FALTA DE INTEGRAÇÃO DO PARQUE COM OS BAIRROS DA ENVOLVENTE; POUCOS COMÉRCIOS NAS PROXIMIDADES DO PARQUE, PRINCIPALMENTE DO SECTOR A ALIMENTAÇÃO.

PHYSICAL AND VISUAL BARRIER CAUSED BY EUCALYPTUS GROVE; LITTLE AMOUNT OF ACCESSES; EXISTING ACCESSES ARE UNCOMFORTABLE DUE TO INCLINATION, OR NOT FORMALIZED. ALL THESE WEAKNESSES INHIBIT PEOPLE FROM USING THE PARK, ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT, FURTHER CONTRIBUTING TO THE FEELING OF INSECURITY THAT THE SITE AROUSES.

17

WA L KWAY FROM THE ANALISYS ABOUT THE PEDESTRIANS FLOWS IN THE PARK, WE OBSERVED THAT THE PATHWAY THAT LINKS THE AREA OF REAL DE BAIXO WITH THE ACCESS TO THE METRO STATIONS WAS THE MOST INTENSE FLOW OF THE SITE. TO OPTIMIZE THE FUNCTIONALITY OF THIS PATH, MINIMIZING THE DISCOMFORT CAUSED BY THE STEEP SLOPE, A WALKWAY WITH AN INCLINATION OF 6% WAS PROPOSED.

EQU IP M E N T S TO COVER SEVERAL SPORTS DISCIPLINES, WE DESIGNED A MULTI-SPORT COURT, A STREETBALL COURT, A RUNNING TRACK AND A GRANDSTAND NEXT TO THE COURTS. THE DYNAMICS OF THE PLAYGROUND WERE DUE TO THE EQUIPMENTS, A COLORFUL RUBBERIZED FLOOR AND A “CURBS BENCH” THAT DELIMITS PART OF THE PLAYGROUND AND ALLOWS THE CHILDREN TO BE CLOSELY WATCHED.

IT WAS FOUND IN THE VISITS TO THE SITE THAT THE SCHOOL IS ENDOWED WITH SEVERAL POTENTIAL SPACES TO ENABLE GREATER COMFORT, LEISURE AND RECREATION FOR ITS USERS. HOWEVER, AS THERE WAS NOT ENOUGH FINANCIAL RESOURCES FOR RENOVATIONS AND MAINTENANCE, THESE SPACES WERE DETERIORATED AND IN POOR USE, BECOMING A HINDRANCE FOR BETTER USE OF THE TERRAIN.

•

ACCORDING TO THE SCHOOL’S DIRECTOR, THE SCHOOL OFTEN PROMOTES EXTRA-CLASS EVENTS, IN WHICH THEY RECEIVE THEIR FAMILIES AND THE COMMUNITY.

METHO DO LY TOPOGRAPHIC AND ALTIMETRIC SURVEY OF THE SITE, PHOTOGRAPHIC RECORD AND INTERVIEW WITH THE SCHOOL’S DIRECTOR, WHO REPORTED THE AREAS OF THE ESTABLISHMENT THAT NEEDED A LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE INTERVENTION. THE PROJECT DESIGN TOOK INTO ACCOUNT NOT ONLY THE NEEDS PROGRAM, BUT ALSO THE CLIMATIC CHARACTERISTICS OF THE REGION: TROPICAL CLIMATE, HIGH TEMPERATURES (MOST OF THE YEAR OVER 30 ° C) AND HIGH THERMAL AMPLITUDE.

1|

AV. DOUTOR MEIRELLES, THE ONLY ACCESS ROAD TO THE RE-

GION: IT CONNECTS AVENIDA DAS TORRES (STRUCTURAL ROAD) TO THE MAIN AVENUES.

2|

PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION OF ANOTHER ROAD, TO DIVIDE THE

LARGE FLOW OF VEHICLES AND PROVIDE THE CONNECTION OF NEIGHBORHOODS WITH THE STRUCTURAL AVENUE.

3 E 4| MAIN AVENUES: LARGE FLOW OF VEHICLES, PEDESTRIANS AND CYCLISTS. THERE IS NO ADEQUATE INFRASTRUCTURE TO PROMOTE THE FUNCTIONALITY ON SITE. PROPOSAL: WIDENING AND REVITALIZATION OF THE PEDESTRIAN SAFETY ISLAND, WITH AFFORESTATION, THE CONSTRUCTION OF BICYCLE LANES, SIDEWALKS AND PARKING SPACES IN ITS PERIMETER.

5| LOCAL ROADS OF THE REGION: DEVOID OF SIDEWALKS, DESPITE THE LARGE FLOW OF PEDESTRIANS. PROPOSAL: CONSTRUCTION OR REVITALIZATION OF THE SIDEWALKS. “TRAFFIC CALMING” MODELS WERE DESIGNED ON THESE ROADS TO REDUCE VEHICLE SPEED AND PROVIDE MORE SAFETY FOR PEDESTRIANS.

6| AREA NAMED AS “TERMINAL” BY THE RESIDENTS, AS IT IS THE FINAL LINE OF BUSES THAT ACCESS THE REGION. IT HAS A SOCCER FIELD AND VACANT SPACES IN ITS SURROUNDINGS. PROPOSAL: BUILD, IN FACT, THE STRUCTURE OF A TERMINAL, MAKING OFFICIAL WHAT IS PRE-EXISTING; BUILD RUNNING TRACKS AND OUTDOOR GYM EQUIPMENT IN THE VACANT LAND, MAKING USE OF THE SPACE AND ENJOYING THE SPORTING ATMOSPHERE PROVIDED BY THE FOOTBALL FIELD.

VEG ETAT ION •

IN THIS LAND THERE WERE FOUR FRUIT TREES (Mangifera

indica), WHICH WERE

PRESERVED IN THE PARK.

•

IN ADDITION TO THE EXISTING TREES, OTHER VEGETATION WAS STRATEGICALLY ARRANGED TO BEAUTIFY AND SHADE THE PARK, PROVIDING MORE COMFORT TO THE USERS, ESPECIALLY IN LONG STAY AREAS, SUCH AS THE PLACE OF PERGOLAS, BENCHES, PICNIC TABLES AND THE PLAYGROUND.

EQUIPMEN T S THE VARIETY OF PHYSICAL ACTIVITY EQUIPMENT (SAND COURTS, SPORTS COURTS, OUTDOOR GYM EQUIPMENT, RUNNING TRACK AND SKATE PARK) CONTRIBUTES TO THE PARK MEETING ALL AGE GROUPS. IN ADDITION, THE CHOICE OF EQUIPMENT IS INTENDED TO PROVIDE COMFORT, LEISURE, ENTERTAINMENT, STIMULATE HEALTH, LIVING AND SOCIAL INCLUSION.
