XXL WORKSHOP 2013

Introduction
The XXL workshop is concerned with the design, computation, engineering, and production of a horizontal
large span building structure. This design process is done as a collaborative digital design in a
multidisciplinary group of students in which each student has his/her own different responsibility. The
collaborative digital design requires an integrated 3D approach with BIM (Building Information Modeling),
performance analysis, and file to factory processes.

Course objectives
The course focuses on Integral Design. The interdisciplinary integration of the various fields of expertise
involved in the design process drives the activities of the course and will be evaluated and graded as a key
aspect. The integrated design process is applied for the design of a Sport venue, as described in the
following section.

Figure 1 – Examples of projects and performance simulations by the students of XXL Workshop 2011.

Design Exercise
The design exercise focuses on a large span structure for an ice Arena and multifunctional ice rink sport
venue: the New Thialf, in Heerenveen (The Netherlands).
The Municipality of Heerenveen, in the Fryslân province, currently hosts the a stadium used for long track
speed skating, short track speed skating, ice hockey, figure skating, and non-sports events. Since long time,
this venue has been a worldwide reference for ice skating; and it hosted a number of world relevant events,
including two Speed Skating World Cup events. The current venue needs a new design. The Municipality of
Heerenveen and the Fryslân province, in close collaboration with a number of other institutions (such as
KNSB, ISU, NOC*NSF, Rijksoverheid, Vrienden van Thialf, Businessclub Thialf, etc.), intend to develop a
new unique stadium concept: a New Thialf. The project aims at a new “schaatsmekka”, able to attract a
worldwide attention in the international ice-skating community; and at an international icon in the field of
energy, sustainability and innovation. The project targets a new generation of elite Olympic-level venues. In
this view, the new stadium highly contributes to the sport ambition of KNSB and NOC * NSF. On the other
hand, the project aims also at developing a new stadium as part of the other ambitious goals of the Olympic
Plan 2028. These are sports participation, economy and employment, infrastructure, sustainability, social
usefulness and public benefit.
As a consequence of this vision, iconic value, functional flexibility and sustainability are the key
requirements of the new design.
Firstly, the new building should offer a new image. The architectural design of the New Thialf is expected to
become an internationally recognized icon for speed skating. The new building should be an emblematic
building, expressing a clear identity for the ice skating community. Ice skating is national culture in The
Netherlands. Therefore the New Thialf should provide an important contribution to the Dutch identity. Ice
skating is also a professional sport in which Dutch skaters are well-known and for which Thialf offers a
worldwide recognized reference. Therefore the New Thialf should contribute to the confirmation of the
world-class status Thailf has among the professionals. Moreover, the image of the New Thialf should reach
the large public. The project should become an attraction of great significance not only for professionals;

4

XXL WORKSHOP 2013

instead, it should exploit an iconic value for multi-levels skaters and public; it should offer a unique
experience for the professional skaters as well as for the spectators and for the amateurs.
Secondly, the new building should have functional flexibility. It should allow exploiting more functions than
the ones currently possible at Thialf. If on the one hand it is essential that the new ice rink remains the
fastest lowland path of the world, on the other hand this is not enough for the success of the project.
Reducing the time in which the ice arena is unused and integrating the venue in the citizen’s daily life are
the key criteria. Skating, like all sports, have a great social impact. For many people skating is a healthy
exercise; but also a sport connecting and bringing people together, with no social exclusion. Encouraging
these aspects and offering them as important objectives is part of the new project. The ambition of the new
concept relays on the combination of a local as well as worldwide recognized sport activities; by allowing
the involvement of local and international happenings of different nature. The new concept should be an
icon for international sports ambitions, but should also favor local sports participation; it should provide
suitable infrastructure for large sport events; for large non-sport events; and for local activities of the
citizens. In this respect, functional flexibility is required.
Thirdly, the new building should embrace principles of sustainability and innovation. The design of the new
building should allow development and operation of the new Thialf based on short and long term
sustainability. This regards functionality, energy neutrality, amount and reusability of materials. The design
of the new building should integrate innovative solutions, especially for energy efficiency in climate comfort
and requirements. Energy efficiency should be reached by means of passive and active strategies. Possible
functional combinations (synergies) could be included by matching functions that allow making the building
energy neutral in heating/cooling.

Figure 3 – The new Thialf should provide a unique experience both for professional and recreational skating.

Location
After having investigated alternative project variants in different locations for new designs as well as for
renovation, in early 2012 the city of Heerenveen and the Province of Fryslân decided to use the variant for
renovation and extension of the current project in the current location.

XXL WORKSHOP 2013

The ambition: from top-sport to local activities in a multifunctional design solution
Usually, top sport venues are used only in occasion of very big events, occurring once in a while. The new
Thialf intends to contrast this tendency. The arena should be designed in order to reduce or even eliminate
the time in which the buildings remain unused.
Concerning its functional program, the primary focus for the New Thialf is placed on sports. In particular on
the organization of major skating events and training of athletes disciplines in the long track speed skating,
inline skating and short track.
According to what Thialf reports, the current setting of the arena lacks in focus. It houses six skating sports;
each of which has sports training, competitions and the recreational skating; for a total of eighteen features.
The consequence of this large number of functionalities is that none of those functionalities is optimally
operated. For a future-proof New Thialf a clearer focus and strategy are necessary.

Figure 4 – current Thialf

The New Thialf primarily intends to be an outstanding competition stadium. It has the ambition to be the
best match stadium of the world. Therefore the arena must contain the best competition tracks and
outstanding provisions for the athletes, the public, businesses and the media. In addition, the New Thialf
must provide an additional and separate training facility for the sport: a top sport training hall exclusively
and continuously available for training and measurement. This must be proposed as a unique and super-
modern training track. When competitions do not occur, the top-skaters must have the chance to train
under the best circumstances in order to reach top performances; while the many amateur skaters can use
the competition track to have their rides in a wonderful ice rink. Moreover, additional space must be

7

XXL WORKSHOP 2013

provided for sport, recreation skating, and neighborhood functions. Finally, a relevant part of the spaces
should be possible to be used for non-sport activities, such as concerts and other public events.

Therefore, the design brief is summarized in the following points:
 Refurbishment of the current building with 400 m track (A)
 Design of a new built facility for extra 400 m track (A)
 Multifunctionality of the new facility, including concert venue (B)
 Integration of secondary facilities (B)

Additional details on the project requirements and settings will be provided during the visit on the project
site; and during the lectures given by the responsible persons of Thialf, Municipality of Heerenveen, Fryslân
province, Alynia Architects, and ABT.

Note: Refurbishment of the existent track for competition, and addition of new track for training is the
project setting recommended to the students. However, different proposals and choices can also be made:
especially, students might make a choice concerning which track is for top-sports training, competition and
recreation.

Requirements for top sport activities (A)
In the course material, a guide is provided to the students for the design of ice-rinks; and a lecture will also
specifically address the topic. For this, special thanks are acknowledged to Breert Boomsma (Thialf).

Requirements for leisure events (B)
Focusing on other sport and leisure events (B), the main challenge of the design exercise deals with:
a) The adaptability (by means of reconfiguration, subdivision or other strategies if needed) of the ice
arena in order to accommodate the sport (professional and recreational) as well as the non-sport
events;
b) The adaptability (by means of reconfiguration, subdivision or other strategies if needed) of the
tribunes in order to match the requirements (such as different capacities, visual requirements, etc.)
of the sport (professional and recreational) as well as non-sport events;
c) The design of a roof system and envelope able to satisfy the requirements of the different sport
(professional and recreational) as well as non-sport events.
d) The integration between the spaces and functions of the overall complex (the areas of the two
tracks and the facilities).
The ultimate goal is minimizing the weekly number of hours in which the spaces remain unused. The tracks,
the tribunes and the roof have to be designed in order to achieve the flexibility of these spaces. Their
functional adaptability is crucial and can eventually be achieved also by means of mobile partitions,
reconfigurable structures, sliding and adjustable parts, dismountable components, or any other principles
based on static or adjustable elements. The strategies to approach the challenge can therefore be organized
based on multi-functionality; re-arrangement/reorganization; extendibility; demountability; internal
flexibility/adaptability; or other proposal the students will develop.

The challenge: a sustainable design solution
The student teams engage to demonstrate the suitability of their own design option. Functional flexibility is
integral part of a sustainable design solution. However, the criteria for sustainability include also other
aspects than functional flexibility only. The criteria based on which the design proposals can be compared
are summarized in the following Table 1.

The principles listed in Table 1 can be considered numeric criteria given for a comparison between the
options of design, in addition and not in substitution to the aesthetic criteria of an appealing and iconic
design solution.

Design Team
The design process is developed based on the interdisciplinary activity of a design team composed by 5
students. Each student will be responsible for one discipline. The work is structured according to five
disciplines, corresponding to five roles in the team. The design and research objectives for each discipline
are described here following.
Please note: in case of teams with four students, the tasks of Climate Design will be distributed
transversally, across the other disciplines.

Disciplines and Objectives
The design and research objectives for each discipline can be described as following. Additional information
is provided at the beginning of the course based on lectures focusing on each single discipline.
Table 2
Architectural Instructors: Arch. Michela Turrin; ir. Paul de Ruiter
Design
A primary objective is the iconic value of the building. Aesthetic must be used to exploit
the attractiveness of the project, which should become a worldwide recognizable
landmark. The external and internal appearance of the New Thialf should be an
emblem expressing the top class essence of ice skating. The indoor spaces of the New
Thialf must offer a unique experience for professional skaters, for amateurs and for
spectators.
Concerning functionality, the objective is the design of a system of spaces able to
satisfy events and activities of different nature. The spaces are meant to allow both
occasional events with exceptionally high number of international spectators and minor
events with limited and local public. The spaces and the envelope have to be designed
based on innovative ideas for meeting the needs of the different situations without
decreasing the uniqueness of the iconic experience they offer.
In doing this, the architectural design process is supposed to integrate inputs from the
different disciplines since its early concept.

Envelope Instructor: ir. Tillmann Klein
Design
The objective is the design of an envelope deeply integrated with the Architectural
concept and beneficial for a sustainable climate design of the ice Arena.
The envelope is essential for communicating the iconic value the New Thialf must
provide. The envelope is the part of the building that is perceived the most when
considering the external appearance of the project. The envelope becomes crucial for
9

XXL WORKSHOP 2013

the role of the building as recognizable landmark. Collaboration with the Architect is
therefore deeply needed.
The envelope is also essential for climate control, which is a crucial requirement for an
ice Arena. Collaboration with the Climate Designer is therefore also deeply needed.
Finally, the envelope should be designed in accordance with the structural system:
both from a technical point of view and in order to exploit the aesthetic of the overall
design.
Attention to the total amount of needed material is recommended.

Structural Instructors: Prof.Dr.ir. Joop Paul; ir. Andrew Borgart
Design
The objective is the design of an innovative and efficient structural system for a large
span ice Arena. The structural system is crucial both for the design of the envelope and
for allowing the architectural iconic expression of the building. Due to the span of the
building, the design of the structural system is a challenge that requires high
collaboration, especially with the architect and the envelope designer. The structural
system of such large span buildings is in fact crucial for the aesthetic of the overall
design; it has large impact both for the indoor spaces and for the image of the building
as landmark.
If needed, the proposed structure may be reconfigurable to favor the functional
adaptivity of the spaces.
Attention to the total amount of needed material is recommended.

Design Instructors: ir. Pirouz Nourian; Dr.ir. Hans Hubers
Informatics
The objective is the conception and development of a digital and computational
strategy to create an integrated multidisciplinary design process. This includes
strategies for digital parametric modeling, loops between geometry and performance
analysis, integration of prototyping, file exchange and archiving.

Climate Design Instructors: Dr.ir. Martin Tenpierik; (Dr.Craig Lee Martin)

The objective is the conception and development of an energy efficient Arena, by
means of passive and active use of on-site energy resources. The ice Arena is a
demanding building that requires high climate control. Required temperatures vary
from -6 degrees Celsius on the ice track; to 10-15 degrees Celsius on the sitting areas;
to 20 degrees Celsius in the rooms and offices. Humidity should be highly controlled.
Acoustic is challenging. In all these aspects, the ice Arena should guarantee a properly
controlled environment. At the same time, the ice Arena should have limited energy
consumption for climate control as well as be designed as a zero energy (or even
energy plus) building, based on renewable sources. Focus is given to energy reduction,
energy-efficient climate systems, possible re-use of waste energy and sustainable
energy production. Synergies among functions (for energy balance) are highly
recommended.
Acoustic and control of humidity are part of the challenge.
For all these aspects, close collaboration especially with the envelope designer is
expected. Moreover, collaboration with the architect is expected since the climate
strategy can be integral part of the architectural concept. In fact, sustainability can also
be expressed in the iconic value of the building. Moreover, strategies for energy
balance can be used in order to define with the architect the functional program of the
building.
Attention will be required also to the use of materials.

Common and Individual Activities
The whole team and the shared goals of its activities are described in Table 3. The specificities of each
discipline are described in Table 4.
Table 3
TEAM TEAM ACTIVITY
Architectural The whole team develops the design solution based on close collaboration and
Designer interdisciplinary integration. Each team member is responsible for his/her own discipline,
as part of the whole integrated process. The process is based on the convergence of
Envelope
each discipline into the development of the final design solution. The concepts for the
Designer
whole architectural, envelope, structural, climate designs, and computational process
Structural need to be conceived from the very beginning as part of one overall picture. Defining the
Designer overall picture of the design and developing it along the entire process is responsibility of
the whole team.
Design
Informatics As part of this overall picture, each team member is then responsible to develop the
Expert specificities of his/her own discipline. The contributions of each discipline should be
multidirectional. Each discipline is expected to contribute to the whole design by both
Climate taking inputs from and providing inputs to the other disciplines, according to the whole
Designer design. Also, each discipline is expected to affect the design solution such that the final
design will fully integrate inputs from each discipline.
This interdisciplinary collaboration is expected during all the phases of the design process
(from the conceptual design to the detailed design). It should occur at all the scales of
the project (from the large scale of the overall ice Arena to the small scale of the
components).
During the whole process, the team approaches the tasks by means of:
 Integrated multidisciplinary design process;
 Use and production of physical working models;
 Use of numeric performance analysis, computational geometry, digital
information management.

TEAM JOB DESCRIPTION
MEMBERS
Architectural The architect of the team is expected to develop and guide the architectural concept of
Designer the project along the entire design process.
He/she is expected to develop the aesthetics values of the project, by proposing a
personal approach on form, detailing and styling. This must be done by converging
inputs from the different disciplines into a coherent overall style of the project.
He/she is also expected to have the overall vision and control of the project by
guaranteeing the fulfillment of the functional requirements as well as of all the other
architectural performances. Focusing on the requirement of functional adaptivity, the
architect is specifically expected to challenge the potentials of multifunctionality in
architecture. This is intended as the capacity of spaces to not lose their aesthetic quality
when used for different events. Re-configurability of elements may be used as a means
to explore architectural concepts based on adaptability for functional requirements.
Focusing on these aspects, the architect is expected to coordinate the design decisions
across the different disciplines. Each team member is responsible for his own discipline,
and the convergence of each discipline into a good design process will be up to everyone.
However, the architect will have a key role in guiding and addressing this convergence
within the whole vision and coherent aesthetic of the project.
The tasks to be achieved during the process can be summarized as following:
 analysis and understanding of the whole architectural program of the project;
 overall vision of design concepts;
 iteratively looped assessment/evaluation and review of the design considering
the architectural performances (visual/aesthetic/iconic, functional adaptable,
etc);
 integration of interdisciplinary aspects into the whole design from the very early
conceptual phase and during the entire design process.
Envelope The envelope designer is expected to develop the design of the cladding for the ice
Designer Arena.
He/she is supposed to address both material and geometric solutions of the envelope
since the very early phase of the process. His/her role should be effective since the very
early stage of the conceptual design, by means of integrated design. Early integration is
needed for various aspects:
- The skin of the project is supposed to be a key aspect of the design concept of
the ice Arena; by early exploring different ideas on the envelope, the envelope
designer is supposed to provide inputs for the Architectural concepts.
- The envelope will act as key feature in filtering, controlling and using the
environmental factors as energy resources and needs specific attention for
Climate Design.
- The envelope needs to be conceived in conjunction with the Structural system.
During the whole integrated process, the envelope designer is responsible for developing
a well performing skin. Performance to be evaluated includes the numerous
requirements that an envelope is expected to satisfy. Specific attention is given to the
need of functional adaptivity in architecture. Also, attention is needed for a sustainable
control of climatic aspects.
The envelope designer is expected to address these challenges along the whole design
process and across different scales. Continuous zoom in and out from the various project
scales are required during the entire design process of the envelope. This ranges from
the large scale of the overall geometry, to the small scale of the single components and
vice versa, in a continuous loop of assessments and performance evaluations (such as
through energy calculations, fabrication plans, material use, etc.).
For the conception and development of a performative envelope (analysis driven design),

12

XXL WORKSHOP 2013

the tasks to be achieved based on numeric performance evaluations are:
 passive solar performance
 energy production
 material use and quantities
 fabrication process.
Structural The structural designer is responsible for conceiving and developing the structural
designer system of the ice Arena.
He/she is supposed to address both material and geometric solutions since the very early
phase of the process. His/her role should be effective since the very early stage of the
conceptual design, by means of integrated design. The structural system is a key
challenge in the design of the ice Arena. Its concept needs to be integrated since the
very early phase with the architectural concept and the envelope concept.
During the whole integrated process, the structural designer is responsible for developing
a well performing structural system. Performance to be evaluated includes the numerous
requirements that a structural system is expected to satisfy. Specific attention is given to
the need of functional adaptivity in architecture, for which the structure might have to be
reconfigurable. Reconfigurability can play a key role in the conception of the structure.
The structure can take a driving role in the architectural conception, as for example by
means of innovative structural systems that the structural designer is expected to
explore, propose and develop.
The structural system should be designed also considering aspects of sustainability.
These can be considered based on evaluations on material use, quantities and
properties.
The integration between geometry and material properties has to be driven by the
structural designer during the whole process and across the different scales. Numeric
evaluations need to support each phase, including structural calculations, quantification
of the needed materials, fabrication process, etc.
For the conception and development of a well performative structural system (analysis
driven design), the tasks to be achieved based on numeric performance evaluations are:
 structural performances;
 material use and quantities
 fabrication process
Design The design informatics expert is responsible for the entire digital process of the design.
Informatics This is intended not as a technical support but as strategy for a highly interdisciplinary,
Expert integrated and performance-driven design process.
Specific tasks are:
a) The conception and development of the digital strategy to support the interdisciplinary
exploration of the design solutions. This should occur from the conceptual design to the
detailed phase, across the various scales of the project. The digital design strategy needs
to be developed in close collaboration with the other team members, in order to be
tailored on the specific design goals.
The digital design strategy should enhance the potentials of the tools used in the
process. Specifically these are parametric modeling (as a means to support the
generation of geometric alternatives) and supports for performance evaluations (mainly,
but not only, intended as digital simulations). Parametric geometric alternatives should
be generated according to a meaningful strategy for design exploration. The
parameterization process is a crucial part of the strategy and needs to be set accordingly
and meaningfully. The performance evaluations can be used to explore the design
alternatives toward the definition of a well performing solution.
According to the different design strategies, digital tools can be highly customized based
on the definition on the specificities of each design process and goal.
b) During the whole design process, the design informatics expert is responsible also for

13

XXL WORKSHOP 2013

the integration of the different digital models from the various disciplines into a core
model (according to BIM concepts); for the archive (including structuring the archive)
and file exchanges; for rapid prototyping during all the phases of the design, starting
from the early conceptual design, when needed; for scripting and customizing the digital
tools according to the design strategy; etc. This role consists in the conception,
organization and management of the digital design process; while the specific work on
the digital models will be done by all the team members.
c) When this overall digital process is set, the design informatics expert will focus on a
specific topic of the design, for which the computational strategy needs a particularly
deep development. As part of the whole digital design process, this will become his/her
own specific individual work.
The tasks to be achieved during the process can be summarized as following:
- Conception and Management tasks:
 conception and development of a digital and computational strategy to support the
interdisciplinary design conception, exploration and development;
 structure and management of the file archive and exchanges;
 integration of specific digital models from the different disciplines into a core model;
 customization of digital tools;
 rapid prototyping with CNC machines.
- Conception and Production tasks:
 deep development of one chosen task by means of informatics and computation.
Climate The climate designer is responsible for conceiving and developing a sustainable and
designer energy efficient climatic control (thermal and lighting comfort; humidity and acoustic) of
the ice Arena; and possibly an overall energy balance of the ice Arena during its use (in
relation to climatic comfort). His/her challenge focuses on to the building-related energy
and ice-skating related energy (refrigeration), while not mandatory requirements are
considered neither for the embedded energy nor for use-related energy (appliances
etc.). The climate designer must collaborate with the architect to define the overall
volumetric form of the Arena and the arrangement of the diverse programmatic interior
spaces; since these larger design intentions have a great impact on energy demand and
their subsequent energy exchange potential. A greater emphasis on the local societal
programs could be included, with focus on the potential of harvesting heat from the rink
and pumping it to even more heat-demanding spaces within the building or adjacent to
it. His/her tasks can be subdivided into three main groups:
a) The conception and development of strategies to reduce the energy consumption
by means of passive climatic control (such as: control of solar gain; shading;
ventilation for cooling; daylight; etc.);
b) The conception and development of strategies to produce energy by means of
active technologies (such as: photovoltaic; solar panels; wind turbines; etc.).
c) The conception of strategies for energy balance trough synergies of functions (to
be coordinated with the Architect).
d) The conception of a strategy for acoustic control.
The energy produced can be used to supply the climatic control of the ice Arena when
passive strategies are not sufficient. By combining passive and active strategies, the
climatic control of the stadium is supposed to be a Zero Energy System. The eventual
remaining amount of produced energy should be supplied for the other energy
consuming needs of the building. The final energy balance should be as close as possible
to a Zero Energy Arena and possibly, even an Energy Producing ice Arena. Such goal
should be developed since the early conceptual phase and the energy balance should be
calculated through the design process, in iterative loops.
Concerning the tasks involving a proper use of materials, the climate designer will make
use of catalogues in order to properly support his/her decision making process (a
number of catalogues will be suggested and are available - i.e. the NIBE catalogue
available through the website of TUDelft’s library).

XXL WORKSHOP 2013

Weekly program
During Week 3.1, students are asked to familiarize with the project requirements and tasks, with the
structure of the activities of the whole team and of each team member. They are supposed to follow the
lectures, learning about the site, the project, and the individual disciplines. The design teams will be formed
and they will be asked to start brainstorming on two alternative conceptual designs.
During Week 3.2, the main task for each team consists in finalizing the conceptual design of 2 design
alternatives. Each concept should have a design vision for the overall design as well as each team member
should develop the ideas concerning his/her own specific discipline. Preliminary evaluation of the concepts
should be presented according to each individual discipline.
Paralelly to this main task, lectures and consults will take place; on the 20th of February 2013 a workshop
will be held to provide each team member with some 3D and parametric modeling skills. Students can start
setting up the overall process, including some organizational aspects (for example: set up the main 3D
model and the work process, set up the information structure for information storage and exchange, i.e. in
DropBox and InfoBase; set up file naming convention; etc).
At the end of the week, a pin-up presentation is held for the whole instruction team. Each team has 20
minutes to present the two design concepts. Each concept must be introduced in its overall vision and
design intention. After this short introduction, each team member must illustrate the concept for his/her
specific discipline. For each team, during the presentation, one of the two concepts will be chosen with the
students. The choice will be made not only based on the interest and approach of the overall design
intention, but also on the specific interest and feasibility for each individual discipline.
Expected material for the pin-up presentations: Each team should make two presentations of about 6 slides
each one. In each of the two presentations, one slide is for presenting the overall vision of the design
concept. Five slides are for the five disciplines in the concept. For each discipline, ideas can be discussed
both with a top down approach from the large scale to the detailed scale; or vice-versa with a bottom up
approach, in which the details and use of specific components and materials at the small scale suggest
possible overall design directions. Eventual additional material (such as mockups) is welcome.
During week 3.3, the conceptual design should be finalized into one specific project draft, whose general
performances are quantitatively verified.
The focus of each team member should be narrowed down to selected aspects only. While during the first 2
weeks, broad exploration of various design directions is encouraged; during week 3 students are invited to
focus more and more on one specific design direction, by narrowing down the design exploration
and strongly reducing its complexity. The design should be developed by focusing only on the key drivers of
the chosen design direction. This should be achieved by reinforcing the integrated multidisciplinary design
process, by means of different expertise becoming more and more focused and specific.
Also, during week 3.3 performances should start being quantified, by means of cycles of performance
evaluations and simulations. The information extracted from the performance simulation should be used as
feedbacks for the design solutions and as a support of the decision making process. This should result in the
integration of simulation supports and design development, with iterative loops using numeric simulation
and development cycles. On the 1st of March 2013, a workshop will take place on iterative loops in design
informatics.
The use of physical working models is strongly recommended, when they support the design process.
During week 3.4 and 3.5, the project draft should be finalized in its definitive configuration, quantitatively
evaluated as well performing for all the different disciplines. The overall setting of the project should be
finalized in its scale 1:200. Some details should be studied and developed zooming in and out from the
project scales.
During week 3.6 and 3.7, the detailed design should be finalized and detailed calculations should be
made for each discipline. The overall project should be finalized from the urban setting 1:1000 to the entire
set of details 1:20.
After the end of the course, before the submission of the final deliverables, further improvements can be
made in the design; also by integrating the feedbacks extracted from the detailed performance simulations.

Exams and grades
The grade to each student will be given:
- 50% based on the final product as a whole (the overall final design product). This grade is the same for
each student in one team and is given by all Instructors.

15

XXL WORKSHOP 2013

- 50% based on the individual work the student developed for his/her specific discipline - this grade is
individual for each student and is given by the instructor of the discipline.
(At the end of the course, a meeting among instructors will be held to discuss the grades.)
For the members of each student team, grades are calculated by using the following excel sheet. This will
be explained in detail at the beginning of the course.

Figure 4 – Template for calculating the individual grades.
Please note: in case the tasks of Climate Design are transversally distributed across the other disciplines
(teams of four students), the grade for Climate Design will be also given to all the team members.

Presentations
Three presentations are scheduled during the course. These are on Friday afternoons: Friday 22nd of
February, Friday the 15th of March and Friday the 5th of April.
- During the first one, the preliminary analysis and concepts are discussed. Each student team presents two
design concepts. One concept is chosen for each team, for further development. The two concepts per team
need to be described in one short design vision, sharply expressing the essence of the concept. Such design
intentions must be possible to be summarized in one clear sentence (or even one key word) and an abstract
sketch. This is common to the whole team. By referring to it, the rest of the presentation is individual for
each team member. The architect, the structural designer, the envelope designer, the design informatics
expert and the climate designer will present one by one the concepts for their specific disciplines (the
architectural concept, the structural concept, the envelope concepts, the digital strategy, and the climate
concept).
- During the second one, the definitive setting of the project 1:200 is discussed, including the preliminary
studies on the detailing. Performance need to be discussed based on numeric values.
- During the third one, the final results are discussed. Also in this case, after a common introduction,
presentations will run individually. They will constitute integral part of the individual grade given to each
team member singularly. Based on the comments and feedbacks received during the last presentation, the
final results can still be adjusted before writing the final reports and submitting the final deliverables.
The design teams will discuss their proposals in front of a number of external reviewers. The challenge for
each team is to convince them about the suitability of its design proposal, by making use of the numeric
analysis performed during the design process. Tables summarizing the numeric results can be used for a
comparison between the different options.

XXL WORKSHOP 2013

Final deliverables
The final deliverables include the final reports, drawings and physical prototypes.

- Final reports (to be delivered by Tuesday 16th of April before h.9.00am):
Content of the report: The reports are meant to present the design concept, the integrated process, and the
final project. In an appendix of the report, the architectural drawings are provided; including plans and
sections 1:500 with eventual selected zooms 1:100 - and some key detail 1:20. These have a reduced size
to fit a A3 format.
Structure of the report: After a general introduction on the project and process, each discipline should have
a separated section. The general introduction is up to the entire group. The sections for architectural design,
structural design, envelope design, climate design and design informatics are up to each expert
individually. For each specific discipline the requirements for the report are presented in Table 5.

- Physical models and A1 printed drawings (to be delivered before Friday the 19th of April
h.10.00):
a) The Physical model can be limited to a meaningful portion of the project.
Content of the model: The models should catch the essence of the design proposal, and clearly express the
design concept. If strongly meaningful, models can be conceptual and abstraction is welcome - however, at
whatever level of detail models are developed, the key contributions from the different disciplines must
be included and expressed in the model (with emphasis on the way you achieved a synthesis of
contributions toward the design concept).
Size of the model, means and organization for production: Models are expected around 600mm X 500-
200mm X 300mm - scales 1:100 or 1:200 are suggested. Students are welcome to use the techniques and
materials that suit the most their design concept. Please note that when using the small laser cutter in
TUDelft CamLab is available, max size is: 600mm X 300mm. The booking of the materials is up to students
and should be done at least 2-3 days before the use of the laser cut. During laser cutting, assistance will be
provided. Instructions for preparing the files are available on-line:
http://wiki.bk.tudelft.nl/toi-pedia/Lasercutting
http://www.tudelft-architecture.nl/chairs/form-modelling-studies/education/modelling-techniques/pages/camlab
Laser cutting must be planned in advance to distribute your activities along the available time, especially in
the last weeks before the exams. Please, the Computational Designer of each group should submit a pre-
planning of the laser cutting activities by Friday 29th March. Impossibilities in using the machine due to
missed planning will be not consider reasons for possible delays.

Table 5
XXL architectural design, required content report
The report should describe not only the final architectural results, but also the process through which the
results have been achieved. The decision making process should be presented and argued, with emphasis
on collaborative design. The integration and elaborations of inputs coming from other disciplines as well as
the feedbacks from architectural design to other disciplines should be discussed. Such approach is expected
from the early design to the detailed design and should be presented across the whole process.
The process should be described in its various phases:
- analysis of the context and of design requirements
- constraints, principles and potentials to enhance
- definition and elaboration of the concept: iterative process of conception, testing/evaluating,
integration of feedbacks in design developments
- final design
The overall design has to be described by including the different criteria required for the design of a
stadium. However the main focus should be kept on the functional flexibility, which is a priority in terms of
design exploration; the concept should be presented with clear approach toward this challenge.
Also, considering the impossibility to exhaustively develop the design in all its aspects, a clear selection of
goals and targets should be taken as priorities and used as drivers in presenting the design.
The architectural drawings and a proper representation of the project (from concept to details) have to be
included.
XXL structural design, required content report
Each design must be calculated for interpretation purposes and as check. This is also required for your
(computer) calculations and should be included in the report.
Load cases for interpretation:
To be able to interpret correctly the structural behaviour, the flow of forces (i.e. how the loads are
transferred via the internal forces to the supports and their reaction forces) of an individual load it is
required to calculate each load as an individual load case.
- Explanation of structural behavior, flow of forces
Explain in the report based on the calculations the structural behaviour (flow of forces) of the structure.
Use for this interpretation the internal forces and the reaction forces (the deformations can also provide
additional information).
Load cases as check:
To be able to check a structure on serviceability and safety (ultimate limit) different loads should be
combined in one single load case for calculation, for example dead load and wind combined etc.
- Serviceability Limit State
To satisfy the serviceability limit state criteria, a structure must remain functional for its intended use
subject to routine (read: everyday) loading, and as such the structure must not cause occupant
discomfort under routine conditions.
To satisfy this limit state, check if the maximum deformations do not exceed the required limits; include
these in the report.
- Ultimate Limit State
To satisfy the ultimate limit state, the structure must not collapse when subjected to the peak design
load for which it was designed.
To satisfy this limit state, check if the maximum stresses do not exceed the required limits (ultimate
stress); include these in the report.
Content report:
- drawings of the structural design
- schematization of the structure as basis for the (computer) calculations, deduced from the design drawings
- input for the calculations:

19

XXL WORKSHOP 2013

o mesh type
o materials
o section properties
o loads (for use of the different load cases see text above)
o constraints (incl. boundary conditions)
o analysis type (e.g. static linear / non-linear / form-finding etc.)
- analysis of the results:
o explanation of structural behavior, flow of forces (see text above)
o serviceability limit state (see text above)
o ultimate limit state check (see text above)
o output (use these for explaining the structural behavior, flow of forces and both the limit
states check):
 displacements / deformations
 support reactions
 internal forces
 stresses
- conclusions including suggested improvements on the basis of the analysis results
- drawings of important details in principle of the structure
consulted literature
XXL envelope design, required content report
The building envelope is to a large extend for the architectural expression of the building and seen as a
component of the climate design concept. It is highly integrated with the structural design.
The report by the Building Envelope Design Expert should include:
Written report containing the following:
- Introduction
- Description of façade concept in relation to structural and climatic design of the stadium, structural
concept of façade, water drainage system, choice of materials
- Examples of similar facades
- Description of production, building sequence and fixing methods
- Critical discussion of the result and possible further research needed.
Drawings
The drawings will build up on the architectural elevations and sections. The following drawings are required
of all major different envelope typologies:
- Sections and elevations 1/20
- Details 1/10 to 1/5
- Explanatory sketches
- Sketches of the building sequence
- Sketches of function principle if adaptive concepts are chosen
The drawings must include measurements, gridlines, chosen materials and systems, fixing principles and
interface strategies to adjacent building components.
XXL computational design, required content report
The report by the Computational Designer should illustrate:
- The design exploration strategy/strategies that have been set and developed. The specific
parameterization strategies of the parametric models, according to the design exploration strategies.
- The digital design process he/she organized for the work flow of the interdisciplinary team (strategies
for digital modeling, loops between geometry and performance analysis, file exchange, including file
formats and plug-ins that have been used, etc.), with emphasis on BIM principles (flow of data and
20

XXL WORKSHOP 2013

geometry from the single models to the core model and vice versa). The report should include personal
and critical reflection on the advantages or challenges of the process.
- The specific work more deeply developed for his/her own computational topic.
Further specifications to detail the three points mentioned above are formulated as following:
 A holistic phase model of the design process plus a technical flowchart of the core computational
process.
 A thorough description of ‘design problem formulation’: how the design task is formulated in relation
to design goals.
 A characterization of ‘design variables’ amongst all the other parameters
 A list of ‘design constraints’ and the way they have been satisfied.
 An overview of performance evaluation methodology: how the quality of design has been measured
and evaluated as to the design goals.
 A description of the ‘design methodology’ as the structured collection of methods used to achieve
the design goals (feed-forward/feed-back in general, and the specific problem solving methods).
- The archive organization/structure in Dropbox and the archive organization/structure in InfoBase.
(Please, do organize InfoBase with the final material of your team, by preparing all the folders and
uploading the files). The file naming both in DropBox and InfoBase.
- The work for CNC prototyping/manufacturing, not only as technical process, but also by critically
reflecting on the advantages or challenges in using them as design tools (and not only presentation
tools).
One or more appendixes are welcome, illustrating in details the GH models as well as the eventual codes
(VB or C#) for scripting or programming.
XXL climate design, required content report
The report by the Climate Designer should clearly illustrate:
- The development of the design from a holistic perspective on sustainability. It is important to illustrate
why certain design choices have been made and how these relate to sustainability in general. The focus
can be on CO2-neutrality, energy-neutrality, energy generation, water flows, material use, social
sustainability, biodiversity, etc.
- A description and graphic presentation of the design decisions that relate to the development of an
energy-neutral ice arena including the systems used to achieve the required climate (temperatures;
humidity; light). Moreover, the climate design expert should substantiate with simulations to what
extent the design task of energy-neutrality has been achieved.
- A description and graphic presentation of the design decisions that relate to sustainable energy-
generation. Calculations should be used to determine the amount of energy generated in this way.
- A description and graphic presentation of the general strategy that leads to a sustainable use of
materials; moreover, a brief overview of used materials and how these can be considered sustainable
should be given. The material choices should be supported by data from the NIBE catalogue available
through the website of TUDelft’s library.
- A description of the acoustic principles considered in the design.
