STATE DRILL CORE LIBRARY FACILITY DESIGN BRIEF
PROJECT BACKGROUND
The South Australian Drill Core Reference Library hosts geological samples recovered from over 130 years of exploration for minerals and energy resources in South Australia. These irreplaceable samples represent valuable direct records of the geological materials retrieved from the depths of the crust, which will continue to be investigated and analysed by new generations of geologists in industry, research, education and government. The facility consists of three main areas, that vary in use and their design and construction methods; the hylogger, the library and the administration building. The facility was constructed in 2015 as part of the Tonsley Redevelopment, Clovelly Park.
PROJECT SCOPE
The scope of this project is to design and document some of the main structural roof and floor elements for the Administration Building of the State Drill Core Library Facility. The focus will be on the part of the building located between Grids BA and BF, B1 to B11 on Structural Drawings ST-200, ST-303 and Architectural Drawing A128.
Firstly determine the design loads on the building (remember to consider the whole building for wind loads) and then design the structural framing members using steel and then timber. The structural elements you will be designing are a roof beam, first floor beam, column, lateral bracing system and a connection detail (for bonus marks).
The following items are not in the scope of this project:
• Any concrete elements including the design of the first floor slab
• Earthquake design
• Fire resistance design
• Ground floor slab or footing design
DESIGN CONSTRUCTION - ADMINISTRATION BUILDING
a) Ground and first floor exterior walls: Lightweight stud wall or glazing with aluminium composite façade panels supported on steel framed fascia trusses. Refer to Architectural drawing A202 for details.
b) Roof: Metal sheeting with insulation under, on steel purlins and rafters as shown on the architectural drawings A303 and A630.
c) Floors: The first floor is a reinforced concrete one-way slab 120mm thick supported on steel beams and columns. The ground floor is an industrial raft slab on ground with pad footings.
PROJECT TEAM
For each design you are required to work in a project team of three (3). Each team will be more effective in their effort to address the project scope in the time duration allowed than an individual. If there are an uneven number of students in the class, one group of four (4) students ONLY will be allowed. Please submit your preferred groups in an email to Danda Li by the end of Week 2. All team members MUST be in the same timetabled design project session.
Please note the initials of the student responsible for particular calculations on each page or include a summary of the work distribution between the team members in each of your submitted reports.
