We will supply a simulated Dock model from which you can test models physically and visually. Your role will be to 3D Print a few iterations of the design in different positions illustrating its flexibility. 1.1 Program There will be three major programmatic elements spread throughout the form. • A ticket booth with space for two people • Waiting area for 15 people • Covered waiting area (standing) at the entry • Covered waiting area (standing) at the boat entry 1.2 Site The site for the first water taxi station is adjacent the ICA (Institute for Contemporary Art). The site extends from a dock near the Pier 4 Restaurant. This part of the study will be at a 1/100 in order to study form and general programming. Use the drawings below as a starting point for programming. There is a file on line to be used for 3D studies.4.510 Design Fabrication Department of Architecture Massachusetts Institute of Technology 1.3 3D Printing This part of the assignment is due in two parts, first is the STL file(s) due next by next Monday class. The second part is the 3D print, sign for a morning or evening print slot. The sheet is located on the door of 7-408. Fig. 1, 3D printed forms as curved surfaces by Marcel Botha or twisted geometries by Onur Gun 2.0 Design Illustration Present the design with a serious of drawings as well as the 3D model. Required will be a plan drawing, elevation and section if possible in CAD. The drawing should be dimensioned and clearly illustrate that the design works. • Plan Section 1” = 50’ • Section 1” = 50’ • Axonometric Projection (can be a rendering) 3.0 SUBMITTING PROCEDURE FOR STELLAR UPLOAD: PDF Nov 3 a. Name, Date, Assignment # b. Axonometric Rendering or Line Drawing of the form c. Plan Section d.
