Edifícios de escritórios na cidade de São Paulo / Office buildings in the city of São Paulo

Roberto Novelli Fialho 20 September 2007 (has links)
O trabalho se propõe a compilar material de referência e registrar a produção de edifícios destinados ao trabalho burocrático (de escritório) na cidade de São Paulo, dos primeiros, datados do início do século XX, até aqueles recentemente construídos. Entre as questões discutidas estão: as implicações da legislação; as relações entre dimensões do lote, legislação e viabilidade econômica; a identificação de uma distribuição espacial na cidade refletindo momentos específicos desta produção; as configurações espaciais mais freqüentes e a influência das inovações tecnológicas no desenvolvimento dos projetos estudados. Em seu conteúdo, discorre brevemente sobre a história da torre de escritórios, identificando origens e aspectos fundamentais de sua evolução, e aborda aspectos da urbanização relacionados à verticalização da cidade. A partir deste contexto, apresenta, num relato cronológico, os edifícios pioneiros desta trajetória, os desenvolvidos sob a influência do movimento moderno a partir da década de 1940 e, a seguir, a produção do período iniciado em 1972, com a substituição do Código de Obras Arthur Saboya pela Lei de Zoneamento. O resultado final da pesquisa apresenta, além deste panorama geral, com aproximadamente 200 obras registradas, o estudo detalhado de 100 edifícios, que tem como objetivo identificar as diferentes tipologias implantadas na cidade e a diversidade de configurações e combinações possíveis a partir de opções de partido arquitetônico, sistema estrutural, condicionantes de legislação, localização geográfica, sistema construtivo e tipo de uso. Estes estudos de caso estão organizados em 5 percursos - Centro, Paulista, Faria Lima, Berrini e Itaim - que os agrupam geograficamente e explicitam a distribuição espacial de diferentes momentos de verticalização da cidade. Complementa este conjunto um grupo formado por 11 edifícios isolados, significativos por compreenderem uma diversidade de soluções que exemplificam a heterogeneidade da ocupação física a partir do uso do solo. Em suas conclusões, o trabalho discute a influência decisiva da legislação sobre a configuração dos edifícios e sua viabilidade, a localização dos empreendimentos na cidade, sua relação com o delineamento de vetores de expansão, sua influência na alteração das infra-estruturas urbanas e, ainda, o uso e influência dos componentes tecnológicos no projeto dos edifícios. Finalmente, identifica a crescente opção por construções flexíveis, a busca pelo aproveitamento máximo de área útil dos empreendimentos e a valorização do conceito de edifício inteligente. Complementando o conteúdo, estão incluídos no trabalho 3 anexos: o anexo I apresenta um resumo visual da evolução dos edifícios de escritórios que faz um contraponto entre a experiência internacional e os principais edifícios construídos na cidade (linha do tempo); o anexo II, um diagrama comparativo da volumetria dos edifícios analisados, também organizados cronologicamente; e o anexo III, índices organizados por data, autor e edifício, para facilitar a consulta isolada das diversas obras apresentadas no trabalho. / The research sets a compilation of reference material and registers the production of office buildings in the city of São Paulo, from the first ones dated from the beginning of the 20th century, to those recently built. Among the discussed issues are: legislative implications; the relations between plot dimensions, legislation and economical feasibility; the identification of a spatial distribution in the city according to specific moments of the production; the most common spatial configurations and the influence of technological innovations in the projects\' development. In its content there is an overview on the history of the office tower, identifying its origins and fundamental aspects of its evolution and it analyses aspects of urbanism related to the city\'s verticalization. From this context, it presents in a chronological line the pioneer constructions, then the ones developed from the 1940\'s under the influence of the modern movement and, finally, the production after 1972, when the Arthur Saboya Building Code was substituted by the Zoning Law. Besides this general background with approximately 200 buildings registered, the research presents a detailed survey of 100 buildings, aiming the identification the different typologies developed in the city and the diversity of possible configurations and combinations derived from the options on architectural conception, structural system, legislation issues, geographic situation, building system and use type. These case studies are organized in 5 itineraries - Center, Paulista, Faria Lima, Berrini and Itaim - that sets a geographical organization and shows the spatial distribution of the city\'s different growth phases. In addition to this, there is another group formed by 11 isolated buildings that become meaningful as a sample of the diversity of solutions obtained from the physical occupation of the city. In its conclusion, the research deals with the decisive influence of the legislation over the buildings\' configuration and its viability, the location of investments within the city, its relation with the setting of growth vectors, its influence on the alteration of urban infrastructures, as well as the use and influence of technological components in the buildings projects. Finally, it identifies the tendency of choice for flexible constructions, the search for maximum use of floor area rates and the valuation of the concept of intelligent buildings. As a complement, there are three appendixes: the first one presents a timeline as a visual summary of the office tower\'s evolution, establishing a counterpoint between the international experience and the most important buildings in the city; the second one is a comparative diagram of the analyzed building\'s mass also in chronological order; the third one comprehends indexes organized per time, author and building, in order to make the data search easier.

Design rules of thumb for naturally ventilated office buildings in Canada

Edwards, Craig 05 1900 (has links)
Using natural ventilation to provide ventilation and/or cooling in commercial buildings has a number of direct benefits to the environment, building occupants, building owners, and architects. Despite advances now occurring in design methods, major obstacles still need to be overcome before a wide spread adoption of natural ventilation technologies will be seen. Most importantly, simple tools that can be used by architects in the initial stages of design of naturally ventilated buildings are required. Existing natural ventilation design rules of thumb were identified from published literature and building codes and standards. A computer model, capable of simulating both naturally induced airflow rates and building thermal performance, was used to evaluate natural ventilation performance in terms of ability to avoid overheating and provide ventilation for indoor air quality. First the effect of changes to building design parameters on the natural ventilation performance of a base case office building were investigated. Secondly, the validity and limitations of existing rules of thumb were evaluated. The base case building was a three story cross ventilated office building surrounded by large local wind and solar obstructions, simulated with climate data for the cities of Vancouver and Toronto. It was found that the development of most of the existing rules of thumb has been based on incomplete research, and the conditions under which they can be applied are poorly defined. When the limitations of these rules of thumb were investigated, it was found that the original rules of thumb are generally not accurate for either the climates of Vancouver or Toronto. More accurate ranges of applicability were developed for each rule of thumb for each of the two climates. The relative influence of design parameters on reducing overheating and increasing ventilation rates for indoor air quality were also established, and can be used to provide guidance into how changes made to the building form and fabric can effect overheating and indoor air quality. / Applied Science, Faculty of / Architecture and Landscape Architecture (SALA), School of / Graduate

No. of bitstreams: 2 Amanda Felix1.pdf: 1801548 bytes, checksum: 445cc21e549bde7f848ea2a0580ad33b (MD5) Amanda Felix2.pdf: 2962647 bytes, checksum: 8e4b38166907fd1c754cdd957880e6a7 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2006-11-10 / During the 20th century, the city of São Paulo grew up, became into a great metropolis, modified its main economic activity from the secondary sector of industry to the tertiary sector - and developed a complex and varied net of services. These modifications were so important that currently the city is well known as the Brazilian capital of the services and became one of the greatest metropolis of the globalised world. In this context, an architectural typology focused on the work has become important at the city scene: the office buildings. As much as the city has changed, the office buildings have become important and have also changed. This master s thesis will be developed through the analysis of these typology transformations, in the world and in the city of São Paulo, and the study of their most relevant buildings. / Ao longo do século XX, a cidade de São Paulo cresceu, ganhou ares de grande metrópole, modificou sua principal atuação econômica - que passou do setor industrial para o terciário - e desenvolveu uma complexa e variada rede de serviços. Estas modificações foram tão profundas que atualmente a cidade é reconhecida como a capital de serviços do País e está entre as maiores metrópoles do mundo globalizado. Neste contexto, uma tipologia arquitetônica voltada para o trabalho passou a sobressair-se no cenário paulistano: os edifícios de escritórios. Da mesma forma que a cidade transformava-se, os edifícios de escritórios ganhavam importância e também transformavam-se. Será por meio de um panorama das transformações desta tipologia, tanto no exterior como na cidade de São Paulo, e da representação de alguns de seus principais exemplares que será desenvolvida esta dissertação de mestrado.
