California Academy of Sciences - Project of the Week 6/5/17
Stay on top of the Greenroof & Greenwall World by subscribing here:
Situated in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park, the world’s first and largest double LEED Platinum museum, the California Academy of Sciences boasts exhibition space, education, conservation and research beneath one large greenroof. The CAS was designed by Renzo Piano Building Workshop along with a slew of other professionals. A single building beneath the new 2.5-acre living roof houses Academy components that once stretched across 12 structures including the Morrison Planetarium, Kimball Natural History Museum and Steinhart Aquarium. Rana Creek Living Architecture worked with Renzo Piano Building Workshop, Chong and Partners Architecture, SWA Group, ARUP, and the Academy to design the living roof with seven dramatic hills and four steeply sloped domes, replicating the surrounding rolling hills. Dotted with circular skylights fitted with heat sensors, the skylights can open to further cool the building when needed.
The undulating living roof sits 35 feet in the air and is planted with over 50 native wildflowers and other species. An open-air observation terrace enables visitors to get a close-up look at the roof's lush canopy of plants. With slopes up to 60 degrees, a biodegradable modular system was developed, later purchased by Tremco, and 50,000 biodegradable modular BioTrays™ were planted. The Garden Roof® Assembly, Ultimate Assembly®, and waterproofing were supplied by American Hydrotech. Surrounded by 60,000 photovoltaic cells, up to 10% of energy needs are supplied and it prevents the release of more than 405,000 pounds of greenhouse gas emissions annually. The BioTrays keep interior temperatures about 10° F cooler, reduce low frequency noise by 40 dB, decrease the ambient Urban Heat Island effect being 40° cooler, and absorb about 98% of stormwater, preventing up to 3.6 million gallons of runoff per year. A masterpiece of sustainable architecture, blending seamlessly into its setting while employing a wide variety of innovative features and operations to minimize its footprint, the California Academy of Sciences and its Living Roof is the greenest museum in the world.”

California Academy of Sciences. Part 1. San Francisco. California, USA
ПОДПИШИСЬ НА МОЙ КАНАЛ, СКУЧНО НЕ БУДЕТ! НАЖМИТЕ КНОПКУ — ЕЩЕ — Калифорнийская академия наук (California Academy of Sciences) - действующая научная организация США. Академия существует в качестве большого музея естественной истории. Академия осуществляет научную деятельность, также на ее территории проводятся выставки и образовательные мероприятия. Академия наук - грандиозный музей, под одной крышей которого собраны аквариум, планетарий, музей естествознания, а так же настоящий тропический лес. Академия является домом для более чем 40000 животных и располагает 20-ти миллионной коллекцией экспонатов. Здание академии - чудо современной инженерной мысли XXI столетия с уникальной экологической концепцией. Для удобства посетителей, академия оборудована самыми современными цифровыми устройствами вывода информации. Музей естествознания является одним из десяти крупнейших музеев естественной истории в мире. Больше нигде на земле под одной крышей не объединены планетарий, музей природы, самый большой аквариум (800 тыс.л) с Филиппинским коралловым рифом, 4-ярусный дождевой лес. Крыша здания состоит из нескольких зеленых холмов. Семидюймовый (17,78 см) слой почвенного субстрата, покрывающий крышу здания, действует как естественный изолятор. Живая крыша состоит из 1,7 миллиона растений, подобранных в соответствии климатическим условиям. Здесь произрастает земляника и маки. По периметру крыши размещены 60 000 солнечных батарей, которые обеспечивают 10% годовых потребностей музея в электроэнергии. Для теплоизоляции здания используется прессованный хлопок, полученный путем переработки старых джинсов. Академия наук расположена на территории парка «Золотые ворота» в Сан-Франциско, штат Калифорния. Академия наук была основана в 1853 г., её строительство обошлось штату практически в полмиллиарда долларов, а построил её самый знаменитый музейный архитектор мира, итальянец Ренцо Пьяно. Первоначально академия была открыта под названием «The California Academy of Natural Sciences» и являлась первой научной организацией на западе США. Основной целью академии было изучение окружающей природы и составление научных коллекций. В 1868 г. академия сменила свое название на «California Academy of Sciences». В 1874 году при академии был открыт первый музей, который ежегодно посещало около 80 тысяч посетителей. Землетрясение, произошедшее в 1906 г. в Сан-Франциско, разрушило здание академии и уничтожило значительную часть ее коллекции. В 1916 г. академия наук переехала в новое здание на территории нынешнего парка Golden Gate Park (парк Золотые Ворота. Постепенно музей рос и появились новые выставки. В 1923 г. открылся Steinhart Aquarium. В 1934 г. Simson African Hall. В 1951 г. открылось новое здание Science Hall, а в 1952 г. открылся один из крупнейших планетариев страны Morrison Planetarium. Современное здание Калифорнийской академии наук строилось в течение 10 лет и было открыто в сентябре 2008 г. В новом здании академии наук расположены офисные и научные помещения, архив, библиотека, конференц-зал, музей, планетарий, аквариум, а также 3D-кинотеатр. Также академия включает ботанический сад, Naturalist Center и вольер для птиц. На крыше здания расположены террасы с зелеными газонами. На территории академии расположены сувенирные магазины и два ресторана. Академия наук работает ежедневно кроме Дня благодарения и Рождества. Вход на территорию академии платный.
