Forord Mur og betong er mulighetenes byggematerialer. Mange arkitekter vet utnytte dette og har skapt fascinerende byggverk. Vi har flere gode eksempler p det her i Norge. Likevel m vi reise utenlands for finne de mest spennende prosjektene. Utgiver: byggutengrenser.no Redaktr: Redaksjon: Ole H Krokstrand Trond Opstad Magne Magler Wiggen Rebekka Bondesen Vendel Maria Brandal Joakim Skajaa m.fl. Alle fotografier: Trond Opstad. (Side 37 verst: Bearth & Deplazes Architekten, Fabio Gramazio & Matthias Kohler. Fotograf: Ralph Feiner.) byggutengrenser.no, som er et interesseorgan for mur- og betongbransjen, har i rene 2006 2008 tatt med seg arkitekter og arkitektstudenter til utvalgte steder i Europa for hente inspirasjon og kunnskap. Turene, som har vrt lagt opp og guidet av sivilarkitekt MNAL Magne Magler Wiggen, har gitt oss masse, og n har vi lyst til dele vre opplevelser med langt flere gjennom denne bildeboken. Vi har ikke alltid hatt tilgang til tegninger og relevant prosjektinformasjon, men har tatt med oss dette der det var mulig. De engelske tekstene har vi stort sett hentet fra internett, og bevisst valgt ikke oversette til norsk. Hper du ogs lar deg inspirere. God tur. Ole H Krokstrand

Arkitekt: Norman Foster Bygger: 1986 Adresse: Av. Cortez Valencianas,Valencia
The Congress Centre provides three auditoria, seating 250, 460 and 1,460 people respectively.The roof consists of two layers: an outer metal shield floats above a heavy prefabricated concrete shell, encouraging a cooling flow of air in between, thus creating a passive thermal performance. The roof creates a canopy above the entrance, which provides shelter from the sun. www. fosterandpartners.com

Arkitekt: Santiago Calatrava Bygger: 1998 Adresse: Ciudad de las Artes y de las Ciencas,Valencia
Den gamle bydelen i Valencia er omkranset av et uttrket elveleie som i dag har blitt til et populrt parkomrde. I denne parken har mange store arkitekter ftt utfolde seg. Blant annet har kanskje den mest utradisjonelle betongarkitekten av alle, Santiago Calatrava, hatt oppdragene med tre svrt spektakulre bygninger: Planetariet, Operaen og Vitenskapsmuseet. I tillegg har han hatt ansvaret for den nrliggende Metrostasjonen. Vi presenterer alle her.

The Pr ince Felipe Science Museum

Arkitekt:Santiago Calatrava Bygger: 2000 Adresse: Ciudad de las Artes y de las Ciencas,Valencia

Set up by the Regional Government of Valencia, the City of Arts and Sciences has become an international landmark and the symbol of Valencia's ambition to present an image to the world based on cultural tourism and dynamism. Over a 2 km axis along the former course of the River Turia, 5 main sections share their cultural purpose and give people the chance to participate in a futuristic and unique architectural complex, in large open spaces: L'Hemisfric, the Prncipe Felipe Science Museum, L'Umbracle, L'Oceanogrfic and the Palau de les Arts. This spectacular building covering over 40,000 m2 resembles a prehistoric-skeleton. www.mimoa.eu

The Palau de les Arts Reina Sofa has 4 different halls. The roof is the most representative part of the complex. The roof or plume is the most structurally spectacular detail, 230m. in length and 70m. in height, while the two shells which embrace the building on the outside are made of laminated steel with an approximate weight of 3,000 tons and feature delicate ceramic work (trencads) on the outside. www.mimoa.eu

Annex to the City Hall of Murcia

Arkitekt: Jos Rafael Moneo Architects Bygger: 1991 - 1998 Adresse: Plaza del Cardenal Belluga, Murcia
The annex to the City Hall of Murcia is located in the historical center of the city, in the square Cardinal Belluga, together with the cathedral of the 16th century and the Episcopal Palace from 1768. The big design challenge for Rafael Moneo was to face a modern institutional building opposite two religious buildings of strong historical tradition. Most Murcia citizens still think that Moneo's building should not be located in this square, in spite of the architect's efforts. The material used for the exterior of the building is brick and a sandstone typical of the Region of Murcia. www.galinsky.com/buildings/murciacityhall/index.htm

Antonioskirche
Arkitekt: Karl Moser Bygger: 1925 -1927 Adresse: Kannenfeldstrasse 35, Basel Konstruksjon: plasstpt bordforskalet betong.
Antonioskirken var da den ble bygget det strste betongbygget i Sveits, og det aller frste kirkebygg i betong som vi kjenner til. Bygget har et rft, nesten industrielt preg, bde ute og inne med fine avtrykk av den uvanlig brede bordforskalingen som er benyttet. Som en kuriositet kan nevnes at da bygget ble renovert i 1981, var det viktig beholde den originale overflaten. Man tok derfor avtrykk av den eksisterende fasaden, og la inn silikonmatriser med mnsteret fra de gamle forskalingsbordene i den nye forskalingen. Deretter fikk alle utvendige vegger en 4-5 cm pstp. Det er denne overflaten vi ser i dag.

I betongen er benyttet stedlige masser fra byggeplassen. Den rffe overflaten er fremstillet gjennom gummimatriser som er avstpninger av de omliggende massene. Matrisene er pfrt retarder og flatene er hytrykkspylt ved avforming for f frem den brune fargen i tilslaget.

Arkitekt: Staufer & Hasler Architekten Adresse: Masanserstrasse 2, 7002 Chur Entreprisekostnad: 15.000.000 Euro Konstruksjon: Pigghamret plasstpt betong
This mighty angled structure at the entrance to Chur's old city centre, houses The local Radio e Televisiun Ramantscha (RTR) It is made of cast in place concrete and bush-hammered, exposing the Rhine gravel in the concrete. The monolithic effect of the faade has its significance: Instead of a stuck-on 'outer skin' it becomes a massive, five-storey-high, load-bearing structure, resting on only three supports towards the square and street. This static tour de force turns the heftily protruding mass into a light-footed elephant. www.mimoa.eu

Im Birch School
Arkitekt: Peter Mrkli Architects Adresse: Margrit-Rainer-Strasse 5, Zurich Bygger: 2004 Konstruksjon: Prefabrikkert lys betong.
Peter Mrkli demonstrates that 'big' does not necessarily mean 'anonymous', but can also stand for 'dense'. This school in Zurich is quite a hunk. Even so, it fits into the scale of the former industrial district and can be taken in at a glance. Two four-storey volumes, slightly staggered, face each other. The third volume contains the gym, one of the biggest in town. There is never a feeling of monumentality. This comes from the scale of the building's volumes, for Mrkli is a master of proportion; the vertical texture of the concrete articulates all of the faades, and the uppermost strip, forming the edge of the roof, recedes slightly. This prevents the corners of the building from appearing apart from the top. www.mimoa.eu

The complex takes the form of a predominantly horizontal volume that links the Belm monumental district to the Belm tower on the Tagus. A series of functional blocks at right angles to the main route is connected to the contextual setting by a sequence of cross, link roads. The route creates a series of different spaces and side views onto the intersecting service routes. The main eastern faade complies with the Los Jeronimos monastery next to the site and is covered with the same stone.

Pavilion Of Knowledge
Arkitekt: lvaro Joaquim de Melo Siza Vieira Bygger: 1997 / 1998 Adresse: Alameda dos Oceanos, Parque das Naes, Lisboa
The design of the Portuguese Pavilion for EXPO\98 involved special difficulties that were, to a certain extent, new in this type of building. The use to which it was originally to be put demanded what was both a flagship image and, festive image, though one compatible with a subsequent urban role that had not yet been defined. The content of the exhibition area was known , but neither the resources to be employed nor the requirement in terms of the organization of the space had been decided. Alvaro Siza

The structure, composed of reinforced concrete and metal elements, comprises almost all of the rough structure of the building and is modulated in function of the dimensioning of the principle compartments of the library. The structural grid employed is 8 m by 8,2 m in the central part, smaller towards the ends. The nonstructural partition walls are in hollow brick.

The Aveiro Universitys Central Building represents, spatially and functionally the act of enclosing of the constructions of the Universitys Campus. The building shall symbolize the presence of a mother house , for all the university. Effectively it will articulate internally like a micro cosmos all of the diversity of scope and activities, however, it has a common sense and a complementary nexus that should show in the building and its diverse spaces. The service spaces (monumental atrium, impluvium atrium, street, corridors and galleries, or even the Reitorias elevated garden) are understood in continuity of the exterior spaces transporting to the interior, of the building that same sense of urban micro city , interiorised, where the diversity of environments have a fundamental importance.

Te a H o u s e B o a N ov a
Arkitekt: Alvaro Siza Vieira Bygger: 1963 Adresse: Avenida da Liberdade, Lea da Palmeira
The responsibility for building on a noted site frequently visited for its beauty, in an unusual place, meant that where to place the building had to be decided with great care, so that once it was there it would not be possible to imagine its not being there. It was not a case of imagining however but of understanding. It also offered us the opportunity to design an environment as a whole. The accesses, designed later (the initial idea was to retain the existing access path, which required a long walk for the car park), are now less sensitive to the irregularity of the site. They are superimposed on the site, adapting to it, but they are not formally defined along the irregularities, as happens, I feel, with the restaurant. Porto, 26 January 1967.

Casa da Musica
Arkitekt: OMA Rem Koolhaas and Ellen van Loon Local Architect: ANC Architects/Jorge Carvalho Bygger: 2005 Adresse: Av da Boavista 604-610, Porto 4149-071

After Porto was selected as one of the two cultural capitals of Europe in 2001, an international competition started, for a new concert hall to be positioned in the historical centre. The shape directly derived from programmatic-piling-up. Two shoe-box concert halls were piled first, the other public programs were added onto the shoe-boxes and the remaining spaces between the public functions were filled up with secondary serving spaces. A continuous route connects all functions and remaining spaces by stairs, platforms and escalators: the building becomes an architectural adventure. The loop creates the possibility to use it for festivals with simultaneous performances. http://www.mimoa.eu/

Servicio de Apoio Ambulatorio Local (SAAL) was formed to seek state aid to alleviate poor housing conditions in Portugal. lvaro Siza worked for SAAL between 1973 and 1977. SAAL activities virtually suppressed by the end of 1976. In 1999, the site had been left in its unfinished state for about three decades. This run-down site, in the center of the city, was seen as a source of national embarrassment, and in 1999 it was decided to restore and rebuild Boua. What had been an example of emergency housing for poor residents was now seen as a model for residential development for central Porto. http://housingprototypes.org

Univer sity of Opor to, Faculty of Architecture

Arkitekt: Alvaro Siza Vieira Bygger: 1986-1993 Adresse: Universidade do Porto, Faculty of Architecture Rua do Clgota, 215 4150 -755 Porto

The School of Architecture of Porto articulates along the limits of an ancient farm right next to the Douro river, creating a wide central space, like an interior square, surrounded by the built volumes. This intervention reveals a lot of sensibility with the surroundings, in communication with the river and the sea. Stairs and ramps distribute the various accesses to the different levels and functional zones. The apparent fragmentation of the build volumes, visible on the project drawings, recovers its continuity in the circulation at the inferior level. The building is integrated within the sector of the university designated as Polo3. The built volume corresponds to two wings of buildings and converges to the West, clearly defining the principal access to the treangular campus that constitutes the heart of the installations. http://www.mimoa.eu/

A roughly north-south longitudinal axis serves as the framework for the project. Two asymmetrical wings branch off to the south from the main body of the museum, creating a courtyard between them, while another courtyard is formed at the northern end between the L-shaped volume of the auditorium and the public entrance atrium. The volume of the main building is divided between exhibition spaces, offices and storage, an art library and a restaurant with adjoining terrace. The auditorium and bookstore have independent entrances and may be used when the museum itself is closed. The exhibition area is composed of several rooms, connected by a large U-shaped gallery -it occupies most of the entrance level, extending to the lower floor in one of the wings. http://www.mimoa.eu/
