Otaku Engineer in Great Tang Dynasty Chapter 452: The Blueprint of the Academy (Part 2)


After the completion of 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, each is independent, can be separated or combined.

In addition, under the premise of meeting the functions of office, teaching, meeting, reception, etc., 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 of the central part. 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 light and clouds linger in the sky, reflecting the desire for close contact with nature in the tall building. 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 is equal to a little more than 2 meters now) in the Jianzhang Palace in Chang'an, the capital. It is a copper "bright-bearing pan" with a circumference of one meter and seven feet in length, on which is cast an immortal 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 should be 137 meters tall, but it is still higher than the existing tallest wooden pagoda in Yingxian County, Shanxi (67 M) is also twice as high 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) deserves to be the first "skyscraper".

So, never underestimate the ancients. There are some ancient architectural art that even modern people are amazed.

Furthermore, in order to enhance the stability of the building, Li Zexuan also plans to spend the next few days to study cement! He can study it out, naturally it is foolproof. If he can't study it out and think about 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 In the future, students of Yanhuang Academy will be used for reading.

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

The building adopts three vertical and horizontal western classicism composition patterns to construct the middle part of the building. It uses 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 solemn, the composition is patchy, and the platform-based solid appearance forms a solemn and square style.

From the appearance, it is 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 "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 Beigong Building faces east and 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 held by the school and speeches by foreign dignitaries visiting Peking University are all conducted 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.

Is the laboratory building? With the existing material conditions of Datang, there are not many experiments that can be done~ IndoMTL.com~ Li Zexuan intends to build a building casually. He drew the drawings for a long time. I already have a certain understanding, it is still possible to design a building by myself.

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. , Are basically the same, so this is also based on his performance.

In addition, he has 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 the teaching buildings, Dormitory building, cafeteria and bathhouse.

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

Under the quick outline of the pencil in Li Zexuan's hand, the blueprint of Yanhuang Academy was officially formed. Looking at the half-foot-high blueprints in front of him, Li Zexuan let out a long sigh. No one could think of it. He just spent less than an afternoon. In time, such a large academy was drawn, and at this speed, it was completely a humanoid printer.

"Squeaky~!"

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

At this moment, the door was pushed open, and Han Yuxi walked in and said with a distressed look on Li Zexuan.

"Um~! It's already night~! Let's go~! Let's go to dinner~! What delicious lady made 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://)
