The Kennecott Yacht Club and Sailing School is a series of boathouses placed along the water's edge of the Chesapeake Bay. The yacht club includes marina facilities, a clubhouse and a sailing school. The program is divided among five structures placed along the dock, culminating in a lookout tower. The structures are variations of each other. The boathouses provide dry storage and natural ventilation for dinghies, keelboats and other small craft boats. A glass curtain wall encloses the structure of the final boathouse to provide a conditioned space for clubhouse activities. The design of the boathouses is developed from the structure of the various buildings. The pavilion structures are based on a common repeated geometrical order, which triangulates and equalizes the forces. The structure acts as a determinant of form for each boathouse. The columns, trusses and walls are separate elements of the structure meeting at pin connections and ball joints. The rigid frame within the layered roof is the essential element which ties together all the parts and provides stability to the structure. / Master of Architecture

The aim of this study is the design of Yacht club. The building is situated on a building estate No. 1303/3 of the Kozmice land registry in the recreational premises at the lakefront of „Hlučínské jezero“. It is placed next to the flooding line which is also considered in the project. The building is divided into three operational parts – the hotel, the catering establishments (restaurant) and the area primarily destined for holding conferences and workshops. The hotel is designed to accommodate thirty-two people, the capacity of restaurant is forty-two and conferential area is suitable for forty people at the most. Yacht club is designed as four-storey building with a flat grassed-covered roof. With regard to the foundation conditions, the building is found on piles. The structural part of walls is partly from CLT panels and partly from reinforced concrete which increase the stiffness of the building. The external cladding of the hotel consists of wooden blocks creating ventilated facade, while the rest of the building is rendered.

nÃo hà / Desde que foi erguida dentro dâÃgua, na ponta da orla marÃtima, a edificaÃÃo do ALAGOAS IATE CLUBE â o Alagoinha â referenciou de tal forma a junÃÃo das praias da Ponta Verde e da PajuÃara que a presenÃa da sua ruÃna passou a pairar sobre a paisagem urbana de Maceià como um Ãcone cultural e uma verruga indesejada. Unidos pelo tempo, nÃo se pode pensar sobre o antigo clube na cidade sem que os escombros do edifÃcio venham à tona como uma sombra, precisamente impressa sobre os arrecifes que lhe servem de terreno. Esta à sobretudo a viga mais resistente da sua arquitetura â a localizaÃÃo em que foi construÃda. à como se nesta exata coordenada (do mapa, das Ãguas, da cidade) pudesse estar concentrada, sempre atravÃs da degeneraÃÃo, uma narrativa que se apresenta ao pensamento como uma explosÃo de destroÃosâ De inÃcio acompanhada por uma equipe pequena, e, logo depois, sozinha, desde dezembro de 2012 passei a visitar semestralmente as ruÃnas do Alagoinha, a fim de capturar em filme e arquivar os fragmentos de tal explosÃo. Em paralelo, deparei-me com os registros do passado do prÃdio atravÃs do acervo de fotografias e de fitas em VHS e K7 cedido a mim pela FamÃlia Costa, fundadora do clube. A soma do meu arquivo abrange hoje cerca de 40 horas de gravaÃÃes em vÃdeos, 1800 fotografias e 20 horas de ambiÃncias sonoras e conversas gravadas na ruÃna com narradores que emprestaram seus diferentes pontos de vista à minha construÃÃo. MONTAR UMA RUÃNA: CLUBE ALAGOINHA propÃe, portanto, uma investigaÃÃo da poÃtica da montagem que se configura num duplo movimento: por um lado, hà uma exposiÃÃo do jogo de procedimentos na criaÃÃo e manipulaÃÃo desse arquivo na montagem dentro e fora da cÃmera, entre o espaÃo da ruÃna, da mente e da ilha de ediÃÃo; por outro, a operaÃÃo de montagem que aqui se realiza à tambÃm a do despedaÃar da possibilidade de uma narrativa linear do declÃnio do Alagoinha, alvo de ocupaÃÃes transitÃrias e de ameaÃas constantes de desaparecimento, principalmente apÃs o anÃncio da obra do âMarco Referencial do Turismoâ em MaceiÃ. Ao desdobrar a matÃria fragmentada e heterogÃnea desse arquivo precÃrio (e ainda em aberto) numa primeira trama possÃvel, experimento o exercÃcio de montagem de uma dissertaÃÃo-filme (ou seria um filme-dissertaÃÃo?), por meio de imagens fotogrÃficas ou descritas, palavras sonoras, relatos de processo e interlocuÃÃes de diversas naturezas. / From the moment its foundations were settle within the sea so that its facade could rest over the surface at a famous corner by the seafront, ALAGOAS YACHT CLUB (âAlagoinhaâ)âs presence stamped Ponta Verde and PajuÃaraâs beaches encounter in such a remarkable way that, nowadays, its remains still hang over MaceiÃâs urban landscape both as a cultural icon and an undesirable wart. Bound together by the force of time, one cannot think about the city unless the already diluted shape of the ruins rising from the reefs comes to mind. The ancient beach club location is in fact the strongest and toughest beam of this architecture. As if in that exact point of Ocean and geography, and always through a degeneration process, a bigger narrative could be surprisingly agglutinated, erupting as a precise explosion amongst the wreckageâ Formerly with a small team, later by myself, I kept visiting Alagoinhaâs ruins every six months, in order to capture in film the fragments of such eruption. In parallel, I came across the rare photograph and VHS/ K7 tape registers owned by clubâs founders, the Costa family, all of which were personally handed to me. My collection was then extended to more than 40 hours in video footages, 1800 photos, and about 20 hours in audio tapes fully recorded inside the ruins, including a number of ambient sounds plus testimonials by different narrators in a series of conversations with me. The (re)combination of all this material is what gives my own construction its particular form. MOUNTING A RUIN: ALAGOINHA CLUB proposes, therefore, an investigation on the poetics of montage that is performed in a double movement: on the one hand, it is a disclosure of the game proceedings involved in the creation and treatment of that archive inside and outside the camera, through the spaces of the very ruins, the mind, and the editing room/island; on the other, the montage operation itself is also that of the disruption of the possibility to create a linear narrative on the ongoing decline of Alagoinha, while its ruins are being targeted by transitory occupations and, especially after the announcement of a plan to build there a âtouristic milestoneâ, by the imminent threat of disappearance as well. Unfolding the fragmented content of that precarious archive in a prime possible plot, and so connecting photographic, and descriptive, images, sonorous words, process reports, and distinct conversations, I get to experience the assembling of an authentic thesis-film (or would it be a film-thesis?).

The subject of this thesis is a construction technology project object Yacht Club Hlučín. The basis for the elaboration of this work is the diploma thesis from Ing.Radim Kučera - Yacht Club Hlučín. This thesis includes technical report construction technology project, coordinating the situation with the construction of wider relations of routes for transportation of main materials, time and financial plan of the construction according to the technical-economic indicators, drawing building equipment, scheduling, inspection and test plan, technological regulation for the implementation of the gross substructure, itemized budget and the plan for OSH implementation in Yacht club Hlučín.
