1 Presentation of Detailed Proposals. Existing Floor Plan Proposed Ground Proposed 1st Floor Plan Floor Plan

2 The layout of the proposed plan keeps the main core of the building and the front and rear wall of the main building its self. The whole building will have to be dismantled and moved across the site to avoid clashes with the adjoining buildings to the south. An addition of a larger two storey building at the rear also has to be created in order to allow for the necessary rooms. Finally an extension to the southern side of the building allows the lifeboat to remain in operation from the building which I feel to be an important and vital element of the build.

3 The First Floor Plan shows the small teaching space, disabled toilet and kit drying space placed in the roof of the existing Building

4 Elevations The Eastern Elevation shows the altered roofline of the existing building's front wall and also the rear two storey extension.

5 The Northern Elevation Shows the addition of the Steel framed Lobby area and Glazed walk way between the existing building and the extension. Also the Windows allow for maximum natural light to enter the building as well as the addition of roof lights to illuminate the kit drying space in the roof of the existing building.

6 The western elevation shows the shape of the new extension building showing the inverted pitch roofline and the slope on the right hand side which corresponds with the slope of the main building's roof also this elevation shows the rear door which leads to a corridor which runs the length of the entire building.

7 The Southern Elevation Shows the similar rooflines between the altered existing buildings roofline and the roofline of the extension with the exception of the two storey element on the northern side of the building.

8 Visualisations East Face showing entrance on the right of the lobby and a view of the rear extension.

9 View showing the large teaching space with lift and stairs up towards the first floor as well as a fire exit and the lighting rig to allow for optimum artificial lighting when needed.

10 This view depicts the left hand rear side of the building showing the inverted pitched roof of the two storey section of the building as well as the window at the rear to the staff kitchen and doorway from the building to the land at the rear of the site.

11 This view focuses on the rear left of the building looking into the large and small teaching spaces as well as showing intermittent bronze cladding panels mid way up the wall to draw focus and break up the large section of wall which would otherwise be bare.

12 This view depicts the building in the late evenings showing the internal lighting as well as up lighters to make the building look vibrant and welcoming especially if it is being used during the evenings by the local residents

13 This view shows how the building would look internally from standing in the lobby area looking up the full length of the building up to the exit at the rear. It also shows the garage door used for the kit storage space depicting an image of a lifeboat crew to remind people of what the building once was and therefore not forget the heritage of the building and the area. Finally this view shows the stairs up the kit drying space and balcony which overlooks the sea.

14 This image shows the seating in the small teaching space as well as the vast amount of natural light coming from the large windows and roof lights.

15 This final render shows the staff room/ office space including small sofa to offer possible counselling or for staff to relax during their breaks and enjoy some television.

16 Material Choices Frame- I have chosen a glulam timber frame for construction of the new build elements and alterations of the existing building. There are several reasons for this. Firstly timber can be sourced from highly sustainable sources where as steel is a finite resource and is less organic than a timber glulam frame. Glulam also has impressive strength and versatility as strong as if not stronger than equivalent steel sections and is also far lighter weight. Finally due to the nature of the environment at Boulmer with the prevailing weather and the sea steel may corrode far more quickly than a glulam frame. Stonework- The stonework I have chosen to keep for the parts of the building which I intend to keep is 480mm thick with good heat retention properties. Once the blocks have been disassembled, cleaned, moved to their new position and reassembled they will be highly thermally efficient. Cladding- The cladding system for the glulam framed sections of the building will be render finished with boarding created to replicate the texture of the stonework to create a seamless look for the building which will be in keeping with the style of the local buildings whilst keeping maintenance low. Roofing- For the roofing option I have decided to use slate which is already being used over all the roofs on the building, this will make sure that, like the stonework, the building will fit in with the surrounding buildings in the area. Flooring- Flooring will mainly be wood laminate to cope with the amount of foot traffic using the building and lower maintenance also a low pile carpet will be used in the classrooms to absorb the sound of a teaching environment and therefore help to prevent the passage of sound between rooms leading to disruption in other parts of the building near the classrooms.

17 Details Window Opening and Façade- The windows themselves will be triple glazed units to bring the building to passivhaus standards. This detail bellow which I have recreated in AutoCAD and developed into a window detail.

18 Triple Glazed Pane Insulated Aluminium Window Frame Aluminium Window Sill Thermally Broken Fixings Fireboard and Internal Finish Insulated Bracket Fixing External Render Board 200mm Glulam Timber/ 200mm wool Insulation 100mm Ridged Insulation This shows a zoomed in version of the detail above showing the individual elements including the additional layer of solid insulation and insulated brackets connecting the window to the timber frame of the building using insulated thermally broken fixings.

19 Wall to Eaves Junction- This detail shows the inverted pitched roof eaves detail including the glulam frame the. The roof is also of glulam construction with layer of ridged insulation with a thin layer of external plywood covered in a membrane battened and then finally the slate tiles attached to create the roof The beam which make the roof its self is cantilevered from a central column. The beam tapers in from the edge where its thinner to the centre which is thicker meaning it can support the roof such as the example below.

20 Building Placement on the Site The Building will be moved on the site from its original position to avoid conflict with the adjoining building to the south. The building takes full advantage of the size of the site and the fact the field drain has been redirected. Also an addition of paths to the doors and a drive way for the lifeboat coupled with parking across the road from the site, means lawn can be used to retain some of the sites current greenery and allow some play areas for the children who use the facility.
