BK City -Redesign- Barrel Vault Skylight

The re-design will include the installation of a laminated glass Barrel Vault Skylight.The architectural goal is to maximum transparency by optimization of structure and glazing.The Skylight will be supported by a similar space frame structure, to the one which exists already.Further research has determined that it is necessary to remove the existing, roof supporting, space frame structure, so therefore the installation would accompany a completely new structure (rather than adding on to the existing one).The Barrel Vault Skylight will let in an abundance of natural daylight, increasing the working conditions, as good light is essential, whilst reducing the use of artificial lights, therefore saving much energy (during the daytime).Plus, the Skylight; aesthetically will make the Atrium much more spectacular.

4123875 - Nicholas Socrates - TU Delft

The problems of the need to provide extensive cooling in summer and insulation in winter inevitably arise with the use of large glazed structures.

With the design of a Barrel Vault, laminated glass, Skylight, with installed Photovoltaic films on top of the glass creating a shading system that optimizes the flows of heat and light energy, whilst utilizing this energy. This in turn may has a significant positive effect in reducing the heat load and glare, enhancing the use of natural daylight, whilst harvesting this energy, and increasing the insulation of the building, through the use of the appropriate choice of glass, thereby enhancing working conditions and reducing the operating costs of the building.
