Project 6
DESIGN & BUILD ‘AN AMPHITHEATRE STAGE’
In a group of 16 people, we are required to produce a single storey stage structure and amphitheatre
(for ‘live performance’ function)
§
The
design must consider the topography condition of the given site (next to the
end of the HBP E08 Studio Block facing the Penang Bridge) and tropical climate
of Malaysia which is characterized by heavy rain, intense sunshine, windless
condition etc.
§
The
permanent stage design must also be able to withstand loads (including wind
load).
§
The maximum size of the stage is 4.0m (width), 6.0m (length) and 5.0m (height)
§
The main material
of the stage is timber.
§
The
stage design should consist of:
-
Roof
/ covered structure
-
Area
for backdrops or LCD screen
-
Raised
floor area for performance of not more than 24m2.
§ The amphitheatre
seating area should accommodate 100 seats of people of several deck levels.
