PART C: DETAILED DESIGN PROPOSAL

RESEARCH FIELD

PARAMETRIC DESIGN FOCUS: SECTIONING & CONTOURING PRECEDENCE

WHY CONCEAL? LITTER NEEDS TO BE SEEN, TO EDUCATE THE PUBLIC

FORM FROM FUNCTION PRIMARY FOCUS SHOULD BE TO EFFECTIVELY TRAP LITTER, THE FORM SHOULD BE A PRODUCT

OF THE FUNCTION

FLEXIBILITY

SHOUILD BE FLEXIBLE TO REMAIN FUNCTIONAL IN ALL CONDITIONS

PART C: NEW CONCEPT POROSITY permit movement of fluid and small debris through the structure

ADAPTABILITY must be functional in a variety of environmental conditions

FILTRATION separate litter based on size

CAPTURABILITY must be able to hold litter for extended periods of time

FLEXIBILITY to prevent blockages must be flexible

BIO-PRECEDENCE FILTER FEEDING MARINE SPECIES to separate organic matter from water for digestion

OPTION 1 coral filter feeding through voronoi-like

pores

OPTION 2 gill filters of filter feeding sharks and fish

MICRO SCALE GILL FILAMENTS/LAMELLA

POROSITY MULTI DIRECTIONAL POROSITY

River water only flows downstream, so initially my design was only porous in one direction. Following

further studies of the location and general river systems I discovered that there is also water

movement in an adjacent direction. This is called run-off and it is the product of heavy rainfall

resulting in water running off the land and into the river system.

WATER LEVEL DURING HIGH RAINFALL PERIOD

AVERAGE WATER LEVEL

THE CENTRAL POLES ARE THE ONLY PART OF THE LITTER CAPTURING STRUCTURE, THAT ARE FIXED TO THE GROUND. THE EVENLY SPACED HORIZONTAL SECTIONS ARE IN FACT BUOYANT

AND WILL SLIDE UP THE POLES WHEN THE WATER LEVEL IS HIGHER IN MERRI CREEK TO ENSURE THAT THE STRUCTURE PROTRUDES

PARTLY ABOVE THE SURFACE

FILTRATION

PLANKITVOROUS FISH closely spaced gill lamella

FISH THAT EATS MEDIUM SIZED PREY

moderately spaced gill lamella

FISH THAT EATS LARGE PREY

sparsely spaced lamella

3rd STAGE OF LITTER TRAP captures only the

smallest pieces of litter

and debris

2nd STAGE OF LITTER TRAP captures medium sized

litter

1st STAGE OF LITTER TRAP prevents passing of large

pieces of litter

CAPTURABILITY

The undulations in the

form of the litter trap provide spaces for the litter to be captured as they are unable to pass

through the spaces in the horizontal sections

The curved form directs the rubbish from the

centre of the creek to the banks where it can easily be collected by the merri

creek volunteers on a regular basis

litter trap saving space for

more litter to be

captured
