Design idea: Modularity Prefabricated
Location: na – freestanding
Client: N.A.
Material and Construction: Steel structure
Category: sculpture (temporary)
Site context: N.A.
Area: 175 sqm @ 1900 sq ft
The brief
This is a practice of how to reused waste material of the construction site. This will lead us to know what should be happened on the site, which at the end – a lot of waste materials that later will be trash after the completion. This simple structure must be a temporary speak, which can be placed anywhere, anytime. So what is the best material?
The solution
Site condition is a headache. It needs a proper site management to store a waste element, and also differentiate it like steel, brick, wood or others – what is the next step? It’s either recycled it or dumbs it somewhere. It’s for us to choose, and this is the lesson for this particular practice. I am choosing one of the best elements to be recycle – steel.

The architecture
The project is ‘temporary’ sculpture, which can be assembled and dismantle in any time. This is leading to my solution – modularity prefabricated dry construction. What type of building is defined as a skeleton – a rigid framework that provides protection and structure, which will show the real jointing and perfect detailing that help the structural strength.
Further exploration is to narrow down the definition of every word; modularity, prefabricated, and dry construction. Literally, the modularity here is about all ‘cube modules' which are representing a space, prefabricated is a method of how it has been fabricated in the factory before transporting to the site, and dry construction is reflecting the material selection – steel.
This project is a quick study for one of my interests of modularity and perfect linear. It’s a design a piece of art, which could be built, demolished, and recycled through an easy and straightforward way.
The use of steel structure to her as a main structure due to two reasons, the steel section still can be used after the sculpture is taken down and structural member can be a factory fabrication. This idea makes her easily transportable and fast construction, thus minimizing the construction schedule. The connection between steel members is just an idea of bolt and nut. As a temporary kind of idea, there is no welding needed.

The composition is focused more on a big scale of architectural; the main ‘rubic’ cube is a huge frame for every container to attach to this framework. It’s using a special adjustable metal plate pedestal for each container, which is attached inside the ‘rubic’ grid, while the cantilever part is one way of cross-bracing will be taking role. As a result; the perfect grid is a must, to make it easier and minimal amounts of sectional parts.
As I mention before, the ‘cube module’ is one of the ideas to make it easier. The combination of four cubes is to make it as one container. The jointing of that four cube is a combination, of ‘I’ beam and cross-bracing to strengthen it. This rigid ‘container’ later will be placed inside a ‘rubic’ kind of main structure.
As all material kinds of dry construction, there is less wet material such as concrete. The foot print is also been reducing to minimal the excavation and foundation works. It's a study of focusing a kind of prefabricated, which come with several parts, and done at the factory. Easily transportable and fast constructions just need a few days of preparation. It’s nearly 90% of Industrial Building System (IBS), and there is no additional sculpture, since it’s already a big piece of sculpture.
As a study of sculptural, I’m focusing this kind of structure to be placed on an industrial location. This should be a small gallery, which can be defined as a pavilion, and can be placed anywhere you like. To make it alive, the information and people must come together.
