Description:
Series 3: Construction working files and related correspondence, 1996 – 2015, contains CAD files and related textual records documenting the evolution of the Phaeno Science Centre project over time, particularly during the construction and post-construction phases. Formats represented include chiefly CAD drawings (plotter files, AutoCAD drawings, DXF), as well as text documents (Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, PDF, plain text) and images (JPEG, TIFF). There is also a significant amount of email correspondence (MSG, MBOX). The bulk of the materials dates from 2000 – 2005. The materials in this series chiefly consist of project working files by year from 2002 to 2015 (non-inclusive). These directories primarily consist of plotter files and other construction drawings in CAD formats, both sent and received by ZHA. Alongside the drawings, there is also often a significant body of textual material, including email correspondence, memoranda, meeting minutes, translations, legal documentation, and other administrative material. Taken altogether, the working files provide insight into the construction of the Phaeno Science Centre as it evolved over time. In addition to the working files, there are also a number of other files arranged topically. This includes material for construction permit applications, invoices to the client and contractors, construction schedules and pricing, materials related to consultants, and additional detail drawings. Notably, this series also contains the email archives of Sara Klomps, a project architect for the Phaeno Science Centre from the early 2000s through at least 2015. These materials reflect her work on the project, particularly communication with the client and consultants, as well as the arc of her career at ZHA, where she became associate director in 2014.

Description:
Original directory name: "18_AN- Ausführende Firmen". File consists of records related to the construction, or execution, phase of the BMW Welt project. There are five high-level directories, identified with numerical codes and which element of the construction is being addressed by the records: construction signs, facade engineering, foundations, structural work, and facade steel construction. The firms include Werbetechnik Deger, Bauer, and Maurer Söhne. The bulk of the records is found under the "3060_Stahlbau_Fassade_MSG" directory, consisting of CAD drawings and 3D models for the roof support head points, the service walkways, cover panels, placement of security cameras, the internal helix, the drainage system, etc. These are CAD files, screen captures, and annotated digitisations of printed drawings, the latter two showing very specific details of the structure. There are approximately 500 plotter files in directories "3017 Fassadentechnik" (facade engineering) and "3060_Stahlbau_Fassade_MSG/I_Pläne/Ausgang", some being in archive files (.zip). Files also include some textual records, such as lists, presentations, and correspondence between stakeholders. Most common file formats: JPEG File Interchange Format, Hewlett Packard Vector Graphic Plotter File, Acrobat PDF 1.3 - Portable Document Format, AutoCAD Drawing, Acrobat PDF 1.4 - Portable Document Format

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 directory contains a large number of subdirectories containing the working files for O/K Apartment. The files appear to have been copied over at intervals during the project. They show the evolution of the projects and changes that occurred over time; however, this means that there are also a large number of duplicates. Each directory represents the work over a particular time period. Within these directories, the files have three major groupings: First, there are a large number of word processing files which document KOL/MACs interactions with the engineers, contractors, and clients. There is also documentation for construction specifications, meeting minutes, and other various notes. Second, there are a number of CAD files, including wireframe drawings, floorplans, and blueprints, which document the evolving design of the O/K Apartment. These are particularly rich in terms of furniture design. Third, there are a large number of still images showing renderings of the apartment; other various architectural drawings are also present, particularly including wireframe drawings and floorplans exported to raster image formats. Most common file formats: Microsoft Word for Macintosh Document, ClarisWorks Word Processor, Microstation CAD Drawing, Tagged Image File Format.
