NEWEDGE “What if America has to confront a starvation problem?”
Between 1848 and 1855 The news of the discovery of gold spread quickly, and soon people from all over the world were flocking to San Francisco in the hopes of striking it rich.� The influx of people led to a severe housing shortage and sky-high prices for basic necessities. . San Francisco also became a very lawless place, as there was no real government or law enforcement to speak of. This led to a lot of crime, and the city became known for its vice and corruption. The Great 1906 Earthquake It was one of the worst natural disasters in American history.
Today’s heat wave will hit these S.F. Bay Area cities with dangerously hot temperatures Between 2019 and 2023 San Francisco soars to 100 degrees as record heat wave roasts California and the West Coast Heat Wave Hits U.S. Farms, Stressing Crops and Ranchers’ Herds Farm worker who died during a June heat wave that brought temperatures above 115
All of this scenario combined, We don’t America might not be the world leader anymore. have a AMERICAN CAN'T STAND NO MORE job We have no food With the remotely work culture, downtown might be left as an empty core without usage.
So how can we solves these problems as an architect ? “ The climate chage already affect the city ” “ Abandoned buildind ” “ Solve a food crisis ”
transamerica pyramid In San Francisco, California, United States. The Construction began in 1969 and finished in 1972 and become the second tallest building in the San Francisco skyline. Designed by architect William Pereira Conceptually, the building's form was inspired by the towering sequoia redwood trees that are native to the region. \"The trees' conical form allows for light to reach the forest floor, just as the Transamenca Pyramid allows light to reach street level.

The Transamerica Pyramid is a 48-story modernist skyscraper The building stands at 853 feet (260 m). The building is a tall, four-sided pyramid with two \"wings\" to accommodate an elevator shaft These wing are design on the east. to aid the lesser a stairwell and floor area by putting a smoke tower the circulation and on the west. core system out of the building. 480 km. of steel rebar design to move in the event of Flared truss are designed earthquake and set 15m below ground. to handle both the vertical and horizontal force and set 18 metre tall to the fifth floor The construction start with a excavation into the ground 18.5 metre

As a vertical farming building, the advantage of being a structure is we can receive the huge amout of light all days. So in theory, if we can rotate the production area to follow the sun, the efficiency of production will be spectacular.
Car Entrance (Customer, Employee) Car Entrance ( Freight car ) Passage
Our design lead use to the final design, \"Purveyance Tower '. His tower use a module as a food production unit, as it can roam free all along the perimeter of our building.
The module then can find the suitable spot for the certain amout of sunlight, depend on the crop they grows. Top Perspective 5 m. Right side Front 6.5 m. 6.5 m.
The module are design to be flexible, leave the tenant to widely amout of the crop they can grows.
Hanging wire Pipe at the top transfer of module tranfer electricity into the water to plant, module and tranfer electric to the control to move the module. Balancing leg help a module to stay on track. Rail-Support structure tranfer the weight into shear wall.
And in the inside of each floor, the tenant also can choose whatever they want inside. G 01 1st Floor Plan Restrooms Restrooms ELEC. Smoke shaft Restrooms Core Restrooms ELEC.

They can travel on the vertical side by the module elevator at the core of the building.�
In each floor we had the rail on the building perimeter.� Module elevator travel to the designate floor. Module wheel rotate on the rotatable floor to align with the rail. Module can travel around the building to find the right spot for the right amount of light. Module elevator & Core
In each production cycle, the module will roam back to the mechanical floor, where the product are being harvest, and the module will fill up the water they need for the next production cycle.� G04 Private Offices Food Process Shelter Production Area F36-43 Mechanical Floor F35 G03 Private Offices Food Process Shelter Production Area F27-34 Mechanical Floor F26 G02 Private Offices Food Process Shelter Production Area F18-25 Mechanical Floor F17 G01 Private Offices Food Process Shelter Production Area F09-16 Mechanical Floor F08 Shopping Mall F01-07 So the worker are not require to always work on module, but instead they can just stand by at the mechanical floor.
Local Elevators The elevator of this building are seperate as Sky Lobb� low zone and high zone with two express elevators.� Express Elevators Shopping Mall Both low zone and high zone will have their local elevator for the convenient of the tenant. Local Elevators Sky Lobb� Express Elevators
For Add 2-layer the construction shear wall of this building, to tranfer a vertical load. we propose that a building Attach rail support to core should the shear wall. stand in the middle. More column to tranfer loads to shear wall.
