Floating city IJmeer Demonstration project for Delta technology Floating city IJmeer Demonstrationproject for Delta technology The concept of the Floating City is developed by the group TU Delft Delta Sync 04: RUTGER DE GRAAF PhD Student Water Management MICHIEL FREMOUW Msc Student Building Technology BART VAN BUEREN Msc Student Architecture & Building Technology KARINA CZAPIEWSKA Msc Student Real Estate & Housing MAARTEN KUIJPER Msc Student Civil Engineering Part I: Deltacompetion and Deltasync Deltacompetition What was it about? • 125th anniversary of Royal Haskoning • International competion for students (Phd, MSc, BSc) • Developing innovative solutions for deltas all over the world Deltacompetition Some figures • 33 teams from various countries • 3.5 TU Delft teams among the best 5 • International scientific jury of 8 judges – Prof. Ir. L. de Quelerij, Dean of the Faculty of Civil Engineering and geosciences, Delft University of Technology – Prof. Dr. P. Hooimeijer, Dean of the Faculty of Geosciences, University of Utrecht – Prof. Dr. R. A. Meganck, Director of the UNESCO-IHE Institute for Water Education – Prof. Dr. R.J. Nicholls, Director of research and Deputy Head of School of Civil Engineering and the Environment, University of Southampton – Dr. A. Datta, GPA Coordination Office (The Netherlands), United Nations Environment Programme – Dr. Ir. M.J. van der Vlist, Senior Water Management Advisor, Ministry of Transport, Public Works and Water Management – Dr. J.M. Visser, Associate Professor at the Coastal Ecology Institute of the Louisiana State University – Mr. C.Th. Smit, Director of the Spatial Development Division, Royal Haskoning Deltasync initiative • Group of 4 teams of TU Delft from 6 faculties – Delta Sync 01: Ganges Delta – Delta Sync 02: Pearl River Delta (2nd prize) – Delta Sync 03: Mississippi Delta (4th prize) – Delta Sync 04: Rhine Delta (1st prize) Deltasync timeline • January 2006: Ties Rijcken en Gertjan de Werk discuss about joining the Deltacompetition • February 2006: Kick off workshop • March 2006: Interim presentation for TU Delft expert meeting • April 2006: Teambuilding and brainstorm weekend Ardennes Belgium • May 2006: Group discussions and meetings • June 2006: Teams start mutual review procedure and design common lay out • 1 July 2006: Papers submitted to jury • 19 Oktober 2006: Deltacompetion awards Interdisciplinary approach Society Negotiate 3 ‘languages’ Calculate Technology Draw Design Modified after Tjallingii, 2005 Part II: Floating City IJmeer Analysis National objectives • Anticipation on climate change • Development the knowledge-based economy • Sustainability Analysis Anticipation on climate change 1900 1970 2005 Analysis Possible strategy • Optimization: stronger dikes and damage reduction • System innovation: Experimenting with types of to urbanization which do not increase expected risk (chance x damage) Example: Floating residential area Analysis Development of knowledge-based economy Analysis Development of knowledge-based economy • Lisbon objectives: focus on science, technology and sustainability for further economic growth (EC,2003) • But: net migration of educated people to the US (EC, 2003) • Region of Amsterdam the 11th place on investments in R&D in Europe (Region Randstad, 2005) Analysis Parasitic behavior of cities IN: Water Energy Space Materials Food Water depletion Precipitation Water Wastewater Food City Energy Nutrients Heat Pollution Water nuisance CO2 Surrounding area OUT: Waste Heat CO2 Water depletion Nutrients Analysis Characteristics Sustainable Water City • • • • Source control Utilization of local resources Limit use of space-> combine functions Use outgoing flows Intermezzo Why Amsterdam - Almere as case? • High demand on space because of multiplicity of competing functions • The Dutch north wing is of national importance • Room for innovation? Bron: Stuurgroep Verkenning IJmeer Analysis Regional issues Amsterdam Almere • Mobility • Housing shortage • Strengthening economic axis Almere-Amsterdam-Schiphol • Important bird migration route • Development of recreation and tourism Strategy Picture perfect development in this region • Contributes to innovation • Managing mobility and housing shortage • Reinforces ecological structure • Reinforces economical project as ‘de Zuidas’ • Attraction for tourism • Potential for water recreation Concept Floating city IJmeer • Innovative transferring knowledge into practice – Building technology: floating base – Sustainable energy: local heat storage – Water technology: decentralized approach Bron, Rijcken,2003 Bron: Deerns Bron: KIWA Water Research Building Technology Kuijper, 2006 Concept • Mobility – Floating highway – Metro to Zuidas and Almere – Water taxi Almere Amsterdam Concept Floating city IJmeer • Anticipate on climate change – Urbanizing without increasing risk – Gaining experience with alternative options urbanization provides diversity for society • Ecology – Reinforcement ecological structure by large-scale construction of wetlands Concept Floating city IJmeer • Tourism and recreation – Workshop ‘geuzentrots in het waterbeheer’: Make something a Chinese would want to photograph himself with!’ – Numerous possibilities for water recreation Concept Floating city IJmeer • Economy – Succes of Zuidas project as European no 1. location depends also on availability high-quality housing locations – Exporting of Delta technology by demonstrating it first on the home market From vision to reality What’s next ? • Involving stakeholders – – – – – Ministeries (V&W,EZ, VROM) Provinces (North-Holland, Flevoland) Municipalities (Amsterdam, Almere) Public utilities Private parties (builders, developers, inhabitants) • Formulating and working out research agenda Form vision to reality What’s next?
