About Iron Ore Center An Àithne Cinneasachaidh

Is e seann bhùth-obrach a tha seo, a chaidh a thogail o chionn 50 bliadhna agus a chaidh a thilgeil air falbh o chionn grunn bhliadhnaichean. A-nis, tha e air a ghluasad bhon stàit a chaidh a thilgeil, agus chaidh atharrachadh gu Ionad Riaghlaidh Inntleachdail. Bidh àite tunail fon talamh mèinn iarainn a’ cruthachadh soillseachadh, a bhios a’ briodadh stoidhle bogha an àite a-staigh. Bidh e a’ taghadh liath a’ mhèinn iarainn fon talamh mar an dath as làidire. Tha am faireachdainn tunail ùine a tha air a chruthachadh leis an t-solas sreathach a’ ceangal an latha an-diugh gu h-organach ris an àm a dh’ fhalbh, a leigeas le stoidhle dealbhaidh an talla smachd meadhanaichte gu lèir a bhith gun samhail iomairteach.

Unique Properties: Daye iron ore has a long exploitation history. we have exploited for over 1700 years until now.The rest mine resources exploitation age limit is less than 10 years. Our enterprise would make use of the long iron ore exploitation history, and convert it to tourism industry. In order to not make the waste due to the repeated investments, when we design the central control hall, we give consideration to exhibition function, that is to meet the requirements of current enterprise central control operation, and also offer a small-scale museum for the future tourism development.
Dimensions & Packaging: Project area: 2373 square meters
Tags: Old Workshop Transformation, Central Control Center, Museum
Production Technology: To maintain and reinforce on the original building, avoid the resource waste which incurred due to the repeated construction. The building is located on the high temperature region. Preserving the big and tall space of the building would play the role of insulation.
Design Challenge: Design difficult point: 1. The storey height of original building is 15.6 meters. The lower storey height of truss is 11.6 meters. In order to save the energy and reduce the emission, we add transition layer on the top surface of the original building, which reduce the top surface of the hall to 7 meters. 2. This project is currently the first mine intelligent management center of China, so it shall meet the functional needs of current central control center, meanwhile, it shall avoid the interference of visitors to the operation staff. 3. It would be changed into industrial legacy museum after 10 years. So, we shall guarantee that the existing central control function can be preserved, which can also meet the requirements that the needed exhibition space shall be preserved for the future.
Research: With the development of the society, the land resource is gradually reduced in China. The contradiction between the old building and current peoples’ needs is gradually outstanding. Demolition and construction violently are to a great extent. In China, housing demolition at early time would waste hundred billion yuan. How to utilize the old building is becoming an unavoidable question.
Inspiration: The inspiration form is from the enlightenment of iron ore underground space form, which incubated the arch modelling of the interior space. About the colour, we select the unique gray of iron ore underground ironstone.The feeling of time tunnel which is built by the linear lighting would connect the modern times with the past, let the whole central control hall design flavour to be uncopyable and unique.
Project Duration: Project address: Tieshan District, Huangshi City, Hubei Province, China. This project is started in December of 2020, and completed in May of 2021.
