Interpretation Of Shanghai World Expo Pavilion Model

In 2010, the China Pavilion in World Expo, Shanghai, held the launching ceremony in Shanghai World Expo planning park in December 18th. The model of Shanghai World Expo China Pavilion unveiled the mysterious veil. It has attracted the attention of the media. The Eiffel Tower is the heritage of World Expo. It is still the immortal specimen of architectural design. The Crystal Palace of British World Expo is also the masterpiece of the time. Unfortunately, it was a pity that it would be a pity forever.

World Expo, Shanghai, China is the first time a developing country has been held. Its significance is unusual.

What do we want to show through China Pavilion?

What is left to mankind and later generations?

A building symbol that has passed for two thousand years. On the morning of December 18th, the piling machine announces the start of a major project in the World Expo park on the South Bank of Pujiang.

It is the hall of fame, a landmark building that will rise.

From then on, it will greet the rising sun from the sea surface of the East China Sea everyday, and salute the whole world on behalf of the general feelings and aspirations of the Chinese people.

From the day when China Shanghai won the bid for World Expo, people began to think a lot about the architectural style of World Expo China Pavilion.

The venue of the host country has always been the highlight of the World Expo period, because it represents the image of the country and the will of the people, and represents the latest scientific achievements and all kinds of beautiful daydreams carried by human beings through architecture.

After the Expo, most of the venues will be demolished and only the main venues will be preserved.

The Chinese Pavilion is destined for the cultural legacy of future generations.

Now, the mystery is revealed, and a huge bucket arch will be raised.

It is red and symbolizes abundance, civilization, auspiciousness and progress in the Chinese chromatogram.

Compared with the masonry structure system of the western ancient architecture, the biggest characteristic of Chinese ancient architecture is the wooden structure system.

For thousands of years, the construction of Chinese wooden structure system is closely related to the natural environment and human environment.

The most striking feature of the ancient Chinese architecture is that there is a big roof. The roof is not only large in shape but also curved in shape, and the eaves on each side of the roof are two ends above the middle, and the entire eaves form a curve.

The huge roofs, curved and curved, do not appear so heavy and clumsy. With some decorations, they become a part of the interest of ancient Chinese architecture. Ancient literati readily called it "bird like leather, such as"

If we go into the Imperial Palace, we can see that the Taihe hall and Baohe hall are huge buildings without any sense of heaviness.

In the preciseness and solemnity, it can also reveal a lot of intelligence, because the overhanging cornice of the sky raises an arcuate outline, so that the roofs with large coverage become lighter and become part of the charm and expressive force.

The most important part of the ancient Chinese building is a piece of timber that is pieced together with beams and beams. It is evenly distributed on beams and beams, supporting the eaves.

This component is the brackets, which is the spirit of Chinese wooden structure.

The brackets first appeared in the Warring States period and became mature in the Tang and Song dynasties.

According to the will of the state, the "construction law" promulgated by the Song Dynasty also defines its position of reverence while defining the brackets.

Since then, the style of the brackets has tended to be unified.

In the two dynasties of Ming and Qing Dynasties, the use of brackets had strict rules, and it was a sign to distinguish the building grade from without using brackets.

The brackets further emit a strong ideology, and its cultural attributes and class attributes have also been emphasized.

After the collapse of the feudal dynasty, Liang Sicheng's generation's value discovery and humanistic care of Chinese ancient architecture often focused on the thin figure of Lin Whei-yin who climbed Lin Whei-yin.

If we look deeper, then we can conclude that from his beginning, the fruit of wisdom under the eaves of Chinese architecture has returned to the hands of the people.

Today we marvel at the ingenuity of the brackets, no longer associating stereotyped order, and it is easier for us to give a sigh of emotion for the brilliance of Chinese architecture and the road to revival ahead.

Last year, at the sixth Shanghai Biennale with the theme of "super design", the artist restored a huge brackets and attached them to the exterior walls of the western style buildings of the Shanghai Art Museum. This is a very special exhibition.

The artist intentionally concealed his name and expressed his deep respect to ancient Chinese craftsmen.

In promoting a series of activities of "super design", audiences feel that the source of Chinese culture is rolling in.

Why do World Expo choose brackets now?

There are several answers to a riddle. The Chinese Pavilion is located at the core of the intersection of the north and South East West axis of the Expo site. It connects to Yuntai road in the East, the South Ring Road in the south, the North Ring Road in the north, the South Road on the west, and the line 8 in the southwest corner of the base.

The China pavilion consists of three parts: the National Pavilion, the Regional Pavilion and the Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan Pavilion.

The National Pavilion is 63 meters high, the overhead layer is 33 meters high, the overhead platform is 9 meters high, the maximum side length of the upper part is 138 meters, multiplied by 138 meters, the lower four columns are 70.2 meters away from the outside, and the construction area is about 27 thousand square meters.

The Regional Pavilion is 13 meters high, with an area of about 45 thousand square meters, and the building area of Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan is about 3000 square meters.

The Regional Pavilion and the Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan Pavilion will provide exhibition venues for 31 provinces, municipalities, autonomous regions and Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan Provinces in the country.

China Pavilion will show the world the image of China and let the world understand China more intuitively.

The two pavilions can accommodate 7000 spectators at the same time.

After the Expo, China Pavilion will serve as the exhibition base of Chinese history, culture and art. The Regional Pavilion will be pformed into a standard exhibition hall. With the surrounding Expo Axis, Expo Center, theme museum, performing arts center, "one axis four Pavilions" and star hotels, we will create a modern service gathering area featuring conference, exhibition, tourism, activities and accommodation.

So, in such an eye-catching geographical position and shouldering such an important mission of cultural identification, the form of the Chinese Pavilion is particularly important.

It is the core building and the finishing touch of World Expo park.

Under the guidance of the Ministry of national construction, the Chinese Architectural Society and the Shanghai World Expo Bureau, the Shanghai World Expo (Group) Co., Ltd., as the owner of the Chinese Pavilion, issued a strong signal to the overseas Chinese on the 25 day of April this year.

In less than two months, 344 programmes were received.

Finally, several rounds of evaluation were conducted under the auspices of many academicians and architects of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and 8 plans were selected.

Then around the "uniqueness, landmark, regionalism and the times" standard, the last round of assessment.

By voting, the "Oriental Crown" plan of the Architectural Design Institute of South China University of Technology, the "overlapping seal" scheme of Tsinghua andI architectural design company and Shanghai Architectural Design Institute, and the "dragon" plan of Beijing Architectural Design Institute were selected.

In early September, the 3 programmes were deepened.

There were more than 20 seminars attended by ministerial leaders, and 3 discussions were held at the executive meeting of the State Council, which finally confirmed the current architectural form.

Dai Liu, chairman of the World Expo Group, has repeatedly stressed to this reporter: "this is the crystallization of wisdom of leaders, experts, people and foreign counterparts."

On the computer screen, a super brackets slowly revolve and toss in the eyes of concern. The whole and detail, bird's eye view and side, individual and environment show the inherent charm and philosophical thinking of Chinese culture.

"In fact, this building is just like a brackets, and there are no components such as beams, bars, and tiles that are interwoven with each other. It is a whole."

In the small conference room of the Expo Group, Dai Liu, chairman of the World Expo Group, accepted the exclusive interview with Xinmin weekly. He expounded the cultural connotation and value orientation of the building to reporters in a refined tone.

"It has four large square columns and a bucket shaped main building.

If you look at it in the distance or look up at it, you will find that it looks like an ancient cap and a bucket of grain, so some people call it the crown of the East and the granary of the world.

A good building can give people a wide range of observation and understanding, and lead to rich associations.

Of course, people will find that it has gained artistic inspiration and spiritual support directly from the brackets of ancient Chinese architecture.

The brackets are stacked up in layers, orderly and tighter. Seemingly fragmentary parts have an incalculable bearing capacity, which can lift a thousand weight.

Do you think that China, a populous country with many nationalities, has been stepping up to the present step by step in the thousands of years?

The brackets are symbolic and can cause sporadic thinking. I think Chinese people are willing to give it meaning.

At the same time, a foreigner who came to World Expo could see that it was China.

There are three major architectural systems in the world. Only ancient Chinese architecture adopted the brackets with great wisdom.

Let's make it clear that although the design team is all Chinese, the best architects in the world have made important comments on the final plan.

In the new technology, it embodies deep humanistic concern. In the course of the exposition of chairman Dai Liu, this huge dash seems to be moving slowly before reporters.

"As the central exhibition hall representing the image of the country, it must give people a sense of ceremony and a great power in certain occasions."

Dai Liu said, "the front of the National Pavilion is the city square. In large-scale activities, people will go up the steps to enter the National Pavilion facing the South and enjoy the pleasant feeling of rising with the surrounding environment.

Just like the rhythm of andante, the beautiful scenery opens in front of our eyes.

If it is a large-scale live telecast, the scenery here is also very good. The Regional Pavilion at the level is a vacant building. On the 33 meter high platform, there are open water and rich greenery. The wind is smooth and the sky is high. It may become one of the most public spaces in Shanghai.

Then we can enter all levels of the national pavilion through two automatic elevators and four vertical elevators in each of the four columns.

The direction of each elevator mouth is clockwise, which is convenient for visitors to identify, and through the steps to upgrade each floor, rotate and rise, the design is very humane.

If we climb on the top floor of the platform that looks like the palace of the ninth palace, the scenery is good here. At the commanding height of 63 meters, the beautiful scenery on both sides of Pujiang will be a panoramic view.

According to the regulations, the height of the exhibition hall of all exhibitors should not exceed 25 meters.

Of course, if we go from Lupu Bridge and Nanpu bridge to Pudong World Expo Park, we will find that this building rises along the route of the car and shows many sides in the course of its progress.

If we come to it, we will feel a great momentum and give rise to a sense of high mountain. It will give us the asylum in the farthest distance to 43 meters.

In the outer walls of the Regional Pavilion, the designers used the ancient Chinese seal characters to record the long history of China and convey the Chinese human geography information.

In addition, a 2.7 meter square window will be set up on the exterior wall in a timely manner.

The concept of Jiangnan gardens is introduced into the architectural boundary, and the relationship between buildings and cities is softened by modern garden space garden.

"Of course, we can also plant some crops, allow visitors to participate in or witness their growth process, and then harvest into the season to become food or new energy, complete a modern agricultural experiment, and comprehensively improve the Chinese Museum's technology, ecological and environmental protection demonstration role."

Dai Liu revealed an imaginative idea to reporters.

To comply with the trend of the world and carry out the spirit of the times, the design of the China Pavilion has also introduced the most advanced scientific and technological achievements to make it conform to the concept of environmental protection and energy conservation.

To pick out such a wide layer of buildings is a powerful challenge to mechanics and materials science.

Under the four pillars, the hall is a space that can be ventilated in the East, North and south. In the four seasons of Shanghai, no matter what the climate is like during the exhibition, the audience can feel that a stream of air that is suitable for the human body is touching their skin.

Exterior wall materials are non radioactive, pollution-free green products. For example, all doors and windows use LOM-E glass, not only reflecting heat, reducing energy consumption, but also spraying a coating, converting sunlight into electricity and storing it to provide energy for building exterior wall lighting.

The thickness of the 1.5 meters of the platform can save more than 10% of energy consumption for the exhibition hall.

The observatory at the top of the National Pavilion will also introduce the most advanced solar thin films, storing sunlight and converting it into electricity.

The top floor also has a rainwater collection system, which is used to wash toilets and vehicles.

The picking layer of the main building forms a self shading body, which has saved energy for the lower space shading.

All pipelines and even the subway vent are cleverly hidden in the building.

It's worth it.
