THE STRUCTURAL ENGINEERS WORKED TO
ELIMINATE INTERIOR COLUMNS. THE ROOF
ITSELF IS A SPACE FRAME TRUSS SYSTEM
THAT CAN BE AS DEEP AS 50 FEET.
THE WELT HAS A MAXIMUM CANTILEVER OF
8M, BUT THIS TYPE OF CONSTRUCTION
SYSTEM CAN SUPPORT A CANTILEVER OR
MORE THAN 30 METRES.
INTERIOR ENVIRONMENTS, BOTH
AESTHETICALLY AND FUNCTIONALLY.
● THE DESIGN OF THE SHOWROOM AIMS TO
PROVIDE AN EXPERIENCE OF THE BRAND TO
THE VISITORS, INSTEAD OF JUST SELLING
CARS.
● INTERIOR LIGHTING IS CONTROLLED TO THE
MAXIMUM EXTEND SO AS TO PROVIDE
OPTIMAL LIGHTING FOR SHOWCASING CARS.
● SOLAR PANELS SPREAD THROUGHOUT THE
ROOF FOR ENERGY EFFICIENCY.
SUSTAINABILITY MUST BE CONSIDERED
USING VARIOUS TECHNIQUES, NEW AND OLD.
● MATERIALS USED MUST BE DURABLE AND
TECHNIQUES MUST BE ADOPTED TO ENSURE
THAT THEY ARE DURABLE OVER A LONG
PERIOD OF TIME.
● NOISE LEVELS CONCENTRATED ON THE
CENTER (PREMIERE) HELPS DRAW
ATTENTION FROM THE SURROUNDING
NUDGING VISITORS TO HAVE A LOOK AT
THEIR VEHICLES. HENCE, THE NOISE IS USED
AS ATTRACTIVE FEATURE TO PEAK THE
INTEREST OF CUSTOMERS.
● WORKSHOP PLACED IN THE BASEMENT
PREVENTS UNPLEASANT NOISE FROM
PERMEATING INTO THE SHOWROOM.
● STRUCTURAL MATERIAL USED MUST BE
CAPABLE OF FLEXIBLE DESIGNS.
● LONG SPAN STRUCTURES CAN BE MADE
USING SPACE ROOFS AND TRUSSES.
● MINIMIZING STRUCTURAL COLUMNS CAN
PROVIDE MORE FLEXIBILITY FOR THE
DESIGN OF FLOOR PLANS.
● FORM OF THE BUILDING CAN BE
INCORPORATED INTO THE STRUCTURAL
DESIGN TO MINIMIZE LOADS.
● NEW TECHNOLOGY CAN BE INCORPORATED
WITH PASSIVE TECHNIQUES TO CREATE
EFFICIENT BUILDING DESIGNS.
● DIFFICULTY AND CHALLENGES OF
CONSTRUCTING THE BUILDING ON SITE MUST
BE CONSIDERED BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO
DESIGN.
● STRUCTURE MUST NOT BE DESIGNED
ACCORDING TO MINIMUM LOAD, BUT WITH
MAXIMUM LOADS.
