No full textTime as a Design Resource in Architectural Heritage intervention. The Case Study of the Conversion of the Escuelas Pías Church into a Library
No full textIntervention in architectural heritage involves reflecting on a pre-existing architecture that has been transformed over time. In turn, the new action raises the need to create a new layer on the inherited architecture that allows it to adapt to new requirements. Therefore, the different stages in a monument’s life are fundamental factors in the design process, requiring an understanding of its past through the events of history, recognition of its present as a consolidated material pre-existence, and its possibilities for the future as an adaptation to current requirements that will ensure its survival over time.
Furthermore, this new layer needs to link with the monument’s past and present through a specific compositional strategy in which time is presented as a concept that generates interesting resources capable of favouring an effective dialogue between the parts. Precisely because of its historical character, the monument incorporates a whole series of formal and material conditions that are the product of the passage of time. So, the new intervention can refer to them to establish this necessary dialogue.
This research aims to explore these compositional resources used in architectural heritage interventions, in which time emerges as a concept that generates the design process. To this end, the case study of the conversion of the Escuelas Pías church into a library is chosen in which various resources can be found to obtain a wide range of strategies that can serve as a reference for future interventions.
The compositional tools detected cover a wide range of relationship possibilities ranging from integration with a specific time of the monument to the simulation of different strata that respond in a fragmented manner to each specific temporal circumstance present in the monument’s pre-existence. Time is materialised through formal or material identification with a temporal stratum present in the monument’s history. This way, different possibilities are covered, from identifying with an eternal and immutable time to creating current and ephemeral strata, from creating a timeless architecture to searching for specific stylistic identification

Marina Martín Garcia
No full textIsla Martín Garcia is founded on a rock outcrop in the Río de la Plata which is a natural protected area between Argentina and Uruguay. Due to the extension of the runway at the local airport, wetlands between Isla Timoteo Domínguez and Isla Martín Garcia developed during the last decades. The bay, where the old port was located, was loaded with sediment. After the waters between the two islands sedimented, Isla Hércules is formed and a channel is created. For the location of the marina, three possible options are selected: at the pier, south of Isla Hércules and in the sedimented bay north of Isla Martín Garcia. By using a multi criteria analysis, a marina at the pier is chosen as the best option because of its small dredging area and minor environmental impact. In consultation with the consultative authorities, a marina at the bay is chosen as the elaborated alternative. The recovery of the old situation in which the marina is located in the bay is the main reason for this choice.Implementation of the marina at Isla Martín Garcia involves cooperation between two parties: the government and a second investor. The government is responsible for the island, and a certain amount of liquidity is required to boost tourism on the island. A second party, like a private investor, is introduced for the maintenance and exploration of the project. This cooperation needs to invest 22.9 million dollars; this includes the 16.4 million dollars for the government and 6.5 million dollars for the second party. Without involving an external investor the internal rate of return (IRR) is 1.77% which is very low. When involving a private investor the IRR increases, the external investor receives an IRR of 7.71 % over the entire lifetime of the marina.Hydraulic EngineeringCivil Engineering and Geoscience

Els Milans del Bosch del segle XVIII
No full textA les muntanyes, terrasses de vinya, parcers i comparets, gent que treballa amb les mans i els peus, or del raïm, perill del fred quan no se l’espera, i les malures que tot ho mataran un dia, però en aquesta història les feixes fan rics als pagesos de Sant Vicenç de Montalt, costes de la Marina que el mar vigila. Gent principal, els Milans del Bosch, casal de parets sòlides, fortificat, hem de conèixer els que hi vivien, nissaga arrelada, històries que vells pergamins expliquen. Seguiré les tres generacions del set-cents, que comencen amb Francesc Milans del Bosch Galceran, un home que passa el tragí de la de guerra de Successió centrat en el negoci de pagès, continua amb Rafaela, que es casa amb Ramon Arquer, i acaba amb els seus fills, tres nois i tres noies, ells es dediquen a les armes i seran coronels, i elles es casaran amb gent de nota. Ramon Anton Milans del Bosch Arquer, l’hereu, és desconegut, alguna notícia hi ha del seu germà Rafael, i moltes de Francesc, el guerriller, amb qui comença la tradició militar que arriba fins ara mateix
Developing a framework for an ecosystem-based approach to sustainable marina development: Including a framework application case study for a marina on the island of Mauritius, Indian Ocean
No full textThis thesis report considers the topic of sustainable marina development. This term can be understood to be a combination of two terms; “sustainable development” and “marina”. Sustainable development in this research study has been considered in relation to the coastal zone and basically entails an approach to ensure a balance between the environment and economic development. A marina, being a coastal (economic) development, interacts with the environmental conditions of the coastal zone and as such, affects the balance for sustainable development. Sustainable marina development is subsequently defined as the development of a marina in such a way and capacity, that the marina integrates its natural, social and economic environment. Additionally, a marina cannot be deemed sustainable by itself, as important principles for sustainable development like the cumulative impacts, multiple (long-term) objectives and sustainability need to be considered on the level of the larger coastal zone, or ecosystem. Currently, marina design is considered to lack an integrated development approach, and is inadequately represented in current marina development guidelines. Especially the initial stages of marina development, involving important development considerations like location selection and alternatives evaluation, lack the assessment of a marina’s integration in its natural, social and economic environment; a key element of sustainable development.Civil Engineering and GeosciencesHydraulic Engineerin
