Designing a Recreational Hall for Community Needs

This project focuses on designing a recreational hall to meet the community's needs for exercise, community building, and fun in a safe environment. The project is based in Kentish city town farm and includes considerations for protection from rain/wind, seating, ventilation, and lightweight structure.

Collage 1
This collage is prepared to portray
the community need for
recreational hall. A community
center offers opportunities to
exercise, form a healthy
community and have fun in a safe,
meaningful environment for
children and in some cases for
adults. Recreation centers can be
set up or charged for their
services as non-profit
organizations. Recreation center
owners and operators often
appreciate the many advantages
that the centers offer to their
societies, and although it may be
hard to start a center, it may also
be satisfying to those involved in
the project. This project is based
in Kentish city town farm.
Traditionally sharing an activity or
event or doing something together
was linked to having fun together.
The idea is that we've experienced
fun ... largely because of that
sharing ... the so - called
coexistence. In the photo, in the
middle is love shaped sign,
represents the charity in the city.
Hose in background describing the
main hall role
The site is the existing location of
the riding ring. Students will be
required to provide a
roof, and enclosure for the
social/club space. The client will
require:
-protection from rain / wind

viewing stands/ seating, a roof height that allows enough room for
competitive horse jumping the size of the ring will be standard size (eg.
see Metric Handbook/ Neubert’s), the club room will require enclosure. The
ring surface will be a standard sand/ riding surface. This will need
maintenance via a tractor pulling a harrow. Good ventilation is required for
summer.

Collage 2
This college describes how
materials from the touchdown
project have been used in this
project to meet the required hall
description. This can be
accomplished by integrating
different construction design types
and materials. It all depends
entirely on other predisposed
factors affecting the final product
designed. Instead of solid
concrete or masonry wall
partitions, the use of expanded
polystyrene (EPS) panels will also
fine - tune light weight
constructions. The use of EPS
panels requires shortcut on both
sides, which in the long run makes
EPS more expensive compared to
the walling / partitioning of
masonry

Site analysis
Railway arches not suitable for
construction. The farm is at the
edge of several rail lines that
intersect. This is a place where'
wasted space' is used and where
trees grow literally. It has a good
community aspect-especially
responsible training for local
children. Traditionally it was:
farmland, industrial land (coopers
/ brickworks...), railways, and now
a farm for the community,
The main farm building provides
equipment for school visits,
pursuits for children and people
over the age of 60. Families can
learn to cook from our community
gardens using fresh ingredients in
the farm kitchen. The gardens
provide children with opportunity
to learn about growing crops and
we are hosting local community
groups and therapeutic gardening
projects.

heaters for students to test, study
and optimize content to their

Structural materials
The clients want a design that has
light weight. the structure needs
to be lightweight, so as to not
compromise the railway tunnels.
Because of this, the design
presented has utilized the light
structural materials available.
Light-side construction materials
come in a variety of functions and
complexity, ranging from simple
pavers and varied flooring systems
to complicated façades. And as
with the heavier building
components used in many of the
same projects, light-side materials
suppliers compete against an
enlarging pool of competitors with
fluctuating levels of growth and
demand.
As seen from the picture, most of
the wall side is covered with
mirrors, and light roofing material.

The design has installed sits for
fun, a overflow part also designed.
This will be used for funs who
would like to stay out of hall, or
away from fun noise.They read

Natural lighting
The roof of the building can be
moved. Most part of the design is
covered with glass, hence there is
enough light

Hall entrance for tractors and horses
The client specifies that there’s need for entrance for the horse and
tractors in case of any maintenance.

Ventilation
The client requires that the room be well ventilated. This is because of the
possible high temperatures experienced in summer. Ventilation
moves air outside into a building or room and redistributes air inside
the building or room. The general purpose of airflow in buildings is to
provide healthy breathing air by both diluting and removing
pollutants from the building.
Climate depends on the type of mechanical ventilation used. In warm and
humid climates, for example, subversion may need to be minimized
or prevented in order to reduce extracellular condensation (which
occurs when warm, moist air from within a building penetrates a
wall, roof or floor and meets a cold surface). In these cases, a
mechanical ventilation system with positive pressure is often used. In
contrast, it is necessary to prevent exfiltration in hot climates to
reduce interstitial condensation and use negative pressure
ventilation. The ventilation system is often used for a room with
locally generated pollutants, such as a bathroom, toilet or kitchen.

Design model
A design that satisfy all the listed parameters below is needed
• protection from rain / wind
• viewing stands/ seating
• a roof height that allows enough room for competitive horse jumping
• the size of the ring will be standard size (eg. see Metric Handbook/
Neubert’s)
• the club room will require enclosure.
• the ring surface will be a standard sand/ riding surface. This will need
maintenance
• via a tractor pulling a harrow
• good ventilation is required for summer.
• there will need to be access (gate) for horses and also a tractor
• consideration is needed for a hoist, to give disabled visitors access to
horses. (this
will probably be outside, but proposals to be developed)
• lighting, both artificial and natural is required
• the structure needs to be lightweight, so as to not compromise the
railway tunnels
• the surrounding environment needs to be considered (sound/
noise/light etc.)
• it has to be pleasing to both humans and animals
