Projet
CI005.S1.1946.PR1
Description:
In order to better coordinate numerous war memorial committees, the Dutch national government instituted a Central Commission for War and Peace Memorials. The commission initiated a national monument project in 1946 with the direction of J. Henrick Muller, who chose Dam Square, Amsterdam, for its site. The existing plan drew on an existing municipal Amsterdam memorial. Sculptor John Raedecker designed a sculpture group supported by an obelisk and Oud was enlisted by Raedecker to create the memorial's spatial design for the sculptures and urns. Oud chose the memorial site opposite the palace in Dam Square. Despite pressure to change the site position, the committee submitted Oud's design and it was approved in 1950. The sculptures and monument were completed in 1956 with an opening ceremony held in May (Taverne et al. 2001, 457-460). Project series includes partial sections and plans showing sculptures by Raedecker.

Description:
Series 1, BMW Welt development and construction records, 1994-2015, documents the design development and construction phases of COOP HIMMELB(L)AU BMW Welt building, located nearby the BMW headquarters in Munich. This series also contains some materials from the competition phase, corresponding to less than 2000 digital files, and models from the third phase of the competition. More than half of the records were created from 2003 to 2006. Records show how COOP HIMMELB(L)AU, and the numerous consultants on the project, materialized the original concept, from Wolf Prix sketch, of this cloud-like roof emerging from a double cone suggesting an hurricane eye. To achieve this, extensive digital structural testing was done with engineers Bollinger + Grohmann. Consultants list also include: - Hans Lechner ZT GmbH for in-house project management; - Schmitt, Stumpf, Frühauf + Partner for construction documents of concrete works, interior fittings, tender and construction administration; - Emmer Pfenninger + Partner AG for the facade; - Transsolar, Klima Engineering for the photovoltaic plant on the roof; - PRO, Elektroplan for electrical systems and lifts; - AG-Licht for lighting; - Büro Dr. Pfeiler for structural physics or building physics; - Theater Projekte Daberto+Kollegen for the stage and auditorium; - PBB Planungsbüro Balke for kitchen technology - realgruen Landschaftsarchitekten for lansdcape design; - Kersken & Kirchner for fire protection; - TAW Weisse for height accessibility planning, in consideration for maintenance access; - Lang & Brukhardt for traffic engineering; - Ingenieurbüro Schoenenberg for civil engineering and road construction; - Büro für Gestaltung / Wangler & Abele for signage; - And Zilch, Müller, Henneke as inspection engineers. The approximately 52,400 digital files include raster images, CAD drawings and 3D digital models, plotter files, standard office documents, databases, and scripts. Design files are predominantly in AutoCAD, but the archive also includes over 1,100 Rhinoceros files (primarily in Rhino version 2, with some files in versions 3 and 4) and a smaller number of files in Maya, 3D Studio, Microstation, form*Z, and Revit formats. Because the firm’s computing environment included Macs, the archive also includes a few AppleDouble resource forks. Often, CAD drawings were also saved as PDF files. Photographs and screen captures were most times saved as JPEG files. Finally, design files also include wireframes and renderings. Most often, design files are plans of a designated area, a complete level of the building for example, but they also often show very specific and technical details, such as a few millimetres to be corrected on a panel or a structural element. These types of corrections are frequently shown in PDF files where annotations were either made digitally, or they were handwritten on a printed version which would then be digitized. Design files document all parts of the building including the facade, the roof, the double cone (Doppelkegel), the restaurants, the shops, the exhibition areas, the auditorium, etc. Accompanying textual records are at times quite technical in their content, such as lists of construction elements required in a given room, or analysis reports from consulting engineers. They also take into account the organization and planning of the work, for example including documentation’s exchange or meeting agendas. Finally, they show the design development through presentations, either PDF or Powerpoint files, and through a portfolio of the project and the preparation of the book Dynamic Forces. The archive’s physical component includes 52 physical study models, which were used in combination with digital modeling tools to iteratively refine the building’s design. These are a selection made by the firm of study models from the later stages of the competition and the early stages of the design development.

Description:
- This album contains drawings which range from design development drawings to highly finished renderings - mostly plans, elevations and sections - for Hubert Rohault de Fleury's proposed alterations to the Préfecture de police and for additions to a nearby prison, Paris, and prints and record drawings of French and English prisons and courthouses. Although the table of contents indicates that drawings four to twelve are for diverse projects (DR1974:0002:015:004 - DR1974:0002:015:015), they are apparently all related to Rohault de Fleury's proposals for alterations to the Préfecture de police (1833 ?) and for the enlargement of the nearby prison (1819). The proposals for the Préfecture de police included the rearrangement of the layout of the buildings and courtyards, and possibly the replacement of some buildings. Included with these drawings is an engraving by Jean-Jacques Leroy after plans by Antoine Marie Peyre for alterations to the Palais de justice, Paris (1822-1828), with a block plan for the adjacent Préfecture de police(DR1974:0002:015:001). Rohault de Fleury's project for the enlargement of the prison near the Préfecture de police includes cost estimates and specifications (DR1974:0002:015:016), and plans for lodgings for Mr. Vachette "l'état-major" (DR1974:0002:015:032). The record drawings and prints of prisons in France include: La Petite Roquette Prison for young offenders, Paris (1825-1826); Hazebrouck Prison, (probably ca. 1825); Palais de justice and prison, Toulon (1829); Chalôns-sur-Marne prison (1828); prison buildings at Caen (1788); and the Agricultural colony, Ostwald (1841). A programme concerning the population and classification of prisoners is included with the record drawings of La Petite Roquette Prison (DR1974:0002:015:033). The prison buidings at Caen (1788) are represented in an engraving after the engineer Le Febvre's designs (DR1974:0002:015:048). The lithographs by E. Simon fils of the Agricultural colony at Ostwald (1841) include a bird's-eye view of the complex (DR1974:0002:015:051). The record drawings and prints of prisons in the United Kingdom include: Chester Castle Prison and courthouse (1785-1822); possibly Ipswich Prison (probably between 1816 and 1830); and possibly Bridewell Prison, Edinburgh (1791-1795). Also included are record drawings, probably of three different unidentified English prisons of radial plan, and one panopticon prison (panopticon plan: DR1974:0002:015:049; radial plans: DR1974:0002:015:059 - DR1974:0002:015:061, and DR1974:0002:015:063 - DR1974:0002:015:070). The project for Chester Castle prison and courthouse (DR1974:0002:015:052 - DR1974:0002:015:058), includes a description and analysis of the courthouse and a bird's-eye view (DR1974:0002:015:052, DR1974:0002:015:054 and DR1974:0002:015:056).
