Otaku Engineer in Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 452: Blueprint of the Academy (Part 2)

After the completion of the Guanghua Building, the tower part will be the office area, and the middle connecting body of the tower will be the information reading and exhibition area; the east and west sides of the podium are the reception, meeting, and teaching areas, each with separate entrances and exits, and each part is connected as a whole. They are independent and can be separated or combined.

In addition, under the premise of meeting the functions of office, teaching, meeting, and reception, the design of Guanghua Building also considered more communication and leisure space settings.

First of all, Li Zexuan designed a two-story shared space on the second to third floors in the middle. From the large steps of the main entrance, into the shared space, extending the dignified, solemn, and rigorous academic spirit to the interior, the scale is large and the momentum is magnificent.

Then he designed an atrium in the middle of the fourth to sixth floors of the central main building, with a semi-circular glass zenith on the top for lighting, and the sky and clouds linger, reflecting the desire for close contact with nature in the tall buildings. There is an inner courtyard on the top of the podium on the east side, and a roof garden on the west side of the podium.

Many people may think that it is impossible to build such a tall building with ancient construction techniques. This is not the case.

Don't underestimate the wisdom of the ancients. According to historical records, the earliest "skyscraper" in my country's history was built by Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty Liu Che.

In 115 BC, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty built a "shenming platform" with a height of more than fifty feet (1 zhang in the Western Han Dynasty equals a little more than 2 meters now) in the Jianzhang Palace in Chang'an. , The copper "bearing plate" with a circumference of one foot and seven feet, on which is cast a fairy holding a jade cup.

In 109 BC, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty built a "Tongtiantai" in Ganquan Palace, which is said to be more than one hundred meters tall.

But this is not the highest, or there is "moisture" in numbers. By the beginning of the 6th century AD, the Yongning Temple built by Emperor Xiaoming Wei in Luoyang, the capital, contained a nine-story pagoda with a height of ninety feet;

The height of this tower is called "Hundred Zhang", which is an exaggeration. According to archaeologists, it is 137 meters tall today, but it is still higher than the existing tallest wooden pagoda (67 meters) in Yingxian County, Shanxi. It is twice as tall as today’s 40-story tall building. It is the greatest pagoda in ancient my country, and the tallest building in ancient my country (probably the world’s) deservedly the first "skyscraper".

Therefore, never underestimate the ancients, some ancient architectural art, even modern people are amazed.

Besides, in order to enhance the stability of the building, Li Zexuan also plans to spend the next few days to study cement! If he can study it out, it is absolutely foolproof. If he can't study it out and think of other methods, he doesn't believe that there are two architects, Yan Lide and Yan Liben, and he can't build a ten-story building!

Li Zexuan’s second target for plagiarism is the Red House, the administrative building of Sichuan University. This can be regarded as the most famous building among all universities in modern China. He plans to transform the Red House into a library for the Yanhuang Academy of Sciences in the future. Of students for reading.

The Red Building is used as the administrative building of Sichuan University. It is an antique-style building with Chinese characteristics. The cornices are carved and elegant, and the red pillars and blue bricks complement each other. It is the intersection of foreign and local cultures.

The building adopts three vertical and horizontal western classicism composition patterns to construct the middle part of the building, using a large number of Chinese classical elements such as traditional Chinese architecture double-eave Xieshan roof, ancient Chinese auspicious patterns and traditional Chinese red beams and columns. The overall architectural shape is vigorous and dignified, the composition is patchy, and the platform-based solid appearance forms a solemn and square style.

From the appearance, it can be said to be quite different from the Soviet-style buildings that were quite popular at the time, such as the Science Building of Sichuan University, which was built at about the same time. In addition to looking like a palace from the front, it is similar to the new Chinese-style building of West China University. Looking down from a height, the whole building is like a large airplane, so some people call it the "aircraft building"

Many people have said that the designer of the Red Mansion was the famous architect Mr. Liang Sicheng. However, this statement was only seen in the reminiscences of Wang Rui, the general manager of the Chengdu local state-owned construction company at the time, and there is no official exact written record. It was later confirmed that the designer of the Red House was Mr. Gu Pingnan.

However, judging from the magnificent overall architectural style and the exposed Chinese traditional elements, there is indeed a taste of beam architecture.

Next is the Bei Gong Building of Peking University. Li Zexuan intends to use this building as the auditorium of Yanhuang Academy.

The modern Bei Gong Building sits east facing west and is located on the east-west axis of the original Yenching University. It is a magnificent palace-style building. It is now the office of the party and government organs of Peking University. The magnificent second-floor auditorium can accommodate 600 people. Important meetings and foreign dignitaries visit Peking University to deliver speeches here.

There are teaching buildings, office buildings, libraries, and auditoriums. Compared with a complete university, only the laboratory building, dormitory building, canteen, bathhouse and some supporting facilities are missing.

The experimental building. With Datang’s existing material conditions, there are not many experiments that can be done~www.ltnovel.com~Li Zexuan intends to build a building at will. He drew the drawings for a long time. For architecture With a certain understanding, it is still possible to design a building by yourself.

As for the dormitory buildings, canteens and bathhouses, they are mainly used for sleeping, eating, and bathing. There is no need to build bells and whistles, and no university in the previous life deliberately built dormitories, canteens, and bathhouses. Basically They are all the same, so this one depends on him on the spot.

In addition, he also designed some quite distinctive and small-scale buildings for future use. Of course, in order to keep up with the progress, these buildings will certainly not be built right away. The most important thing is teaching buildings, dormitory buildings, Canteen and bathhouse.

After drawing the main architectural drawings of Yanhuang Academy, Li Zexuan began to draw the macro layout of the entire Academy again. How could the supporting facilities such as sports fields, groves, ponds, rockeries, gardens, etc. be missing?

With the quick outline of the pencil in Li Zexuan's hand, the blueprint of Yanhuang Academy was formally formed. Seeing the half-foot-high blueprints piled up in front of him, Li Zexuan let out a long sigh. No one would have thought that it took him less than an afternoon. The speed of drawing such a large academy is completely a humanoid printer.

"Squeaky~!"

"My husband, you are tired all afternoon, it's time to eat! Father and mother are waiting in the lobby~!"

At this moment, the door was pushed open, and Han Yuxi walked in, looking at Li Zexuan and said distressedly.

"Um~! It's already night~! Let's go! Let's have dinner~! What did the lady make delicious tonight~!"

Li Zexuan got up, took a last look at the layout of the academy, and then took Han Yuxi's little hand, and went out, but he always felt that something seemed to be missing! (Tianjin Novel Network https://)
