Urgent need: a brief introduction to Shanghai World Expo

Shanghai World Expo 20 10 established the theme of "Better City, Better Life" and put forward the central concept of "harmony between people, harmony between man and nature, and harmony between history and future". The harmony between man and nature is manifested in the existence of "man, city and nature". Experts in architecture and urban planning of Tongji University made a preliminary attempt in the planning and design of the Expo site, based on green intelligent building technology. Designers hope that through this attempt, they can obtain a more effective green environment construction mode and open up a broader field for the development of green intelligent building technology.

[Edit this paragraph] Introduction of the Pavilion Group

In the 5.4-square-kilometer Expo Park on both sides of Huangpu River in Shanghai, the Pudong part is 3.93 square kilometers, and the Puxi part is divided into 1.35 square kilometers. The enclosed area (into the park) covers an area of about 3.28 square kilometers. The Expo Park is divided into five pavilions, namely, Independent Pavilion, Joint Pavilion, Enterprise Pavilion, Theme Pavilion and China Pavilion. Among them, the buildings of the independent pavilion will be concentrated on the Huangpu River, and each building will be funded by a country to display the scientific and technological achievements of that country; Part of the complex will be jointly built by some countries; Other buildings will be funded by China and leased to participating countries at that time; The enterprise pavilion will become the exhibition place for international exhibitors.

[Edit this paragraph] Park planning

Protect the building

According to the plan, the Expo Cultural Center, one of the park's historical buildings and industrial heritage buildings, will build a large number of new buildings within the planning red line of the Expo Park, and nearly 20% of the old buildings will be preserved as one of the preserved buildings-Expo Axis protection; Of the total construction area of 2 million square meters, the reuse area of old buildings is 380,000 square meters. These include the excellent old houses built after the opening of Shanghai port, which witnessed the industrial heritage of China's industrial development. After reconstruction, it is mainly used for exhibition halls, management office buildings, Linjiang hotels, museums and so on. This move is not only to greatly reduce the construction cost, but also to complete the transformation from industrial plant to Expo industry. Jiangnan Shipyard, which attracts the most attention at home and abroad, will be rebuilt after the World Expo and transformed into China Modern Industrial Museum Group, which will be permanently preserved as a new bright spot in Shanghai. This move of Shanghai World Expo has been affirmed by UNESCO experts. Luo Cetus, Secretary-General of the Bureau of International Expositions, said that the area of historical buildings and industrial heritage buildings used, protected and followed up by the Shanghai World Expo is the largest since the first World Expo was held. Experts believe that this can set an example for other developing countries to protect industrial cultural heritage.

Ecological planning

The fundamental goal of a happy ecology is to build a virtuous circle, which begins with people's psychological needs and spiritual dependence on the natural ecological environment. By shaping the China Pavilion of Environment 20 10 Shanghai World Expo, we can promote participation in ecological practice, strengthen ecological awareness, increase environmental protection knowledge, and strengthen people's concern and dependence on the natural ecological environment. The four themes of happy ecological design are: sports, entertainment, education and appreciation. Scene construction can be divided into three categories according to different actors: dynamic, interactive and static. Dynamic scene takes people as the active body, environment as the passive body, and human activities as the central content of scene construction. The static scene takes the environment as the active body and the artificial passive body, and the display of environmental elements is the central content of scene construction. The spatial framework consists of "one ring, two parks, five belts and multiple points". "Ecological consciousness circle" is a panoramic ecological belt. This belt is intended to build a heterogeneous original ecological environment, including as many ecological elements as possible, and restore the initial state of the natural environment. These two parks are "Expo Greening Park" and "Ecological Education Park". "Expo Greening Garden" is a three-dimensional Expo Park with ecological culture and art as the core and showing the humanistic ecological environment. "Ecological Education Park" is a park containing ecological knowledge, related scientific and technological achievements display and participatory activities. In the "five areas", "ecological participation area" is an interactive aisle to participate in the process of ecological evolution and development. "Wave Pedestrian Belt" is a three-dimensional dynamic leisure walkway, which fluctuates with the elevation change of water body and twists and turns with the change of coastline, creating the artistic conception of the survival and development of man and nature.

green building

The concept of happy ecology in the planning of Shanghai World Expo Park is based on the technical platform with green building technology as the main body, and this concept is realized through the innovation of building technology, and finally the fundamental goal of a harmonious society is realized. In the planning and design of the Expo Park, the following principles of green building design have been implemented: the principles of resource conservation and low cost; Life cycle design principles; Principles of comfort design; Principle of flexibility; The principle of combining traditional characteristics with modern science and technology; The principle of combining architectural theory with environmental science. The adopted green building technologies mainly include green configuration, natural ventilation, natural lighting, low-energy envelope, solar energy utilization, geothermal utilization, reclaimed water utilization, green building materials, water-saving and energy-saving equipment, and three-dimensional greening.

[Edit this paragraph] Expo emblem

20 10 The image of three people hugging each other in the emblem of Shanghai World Expo looks like a happy family of three. It can also be abstractly summarized as "you, me and him" to express the concept of "understanding, communication, convergence and cooperation" in the World Expo. The foreign world expositions are slightly overflowing with the Chinese national spirit of advocating harmony and aggregation, which embodies the active pursuit of people-oriented in the 20 10 Shanghai World Expo. The emblem looks like the Chinese character "World", which is skillfully combined with the number "20 10" to complement each other, expressing the strong desire of the people of China to hold a world-class and multicultural World Expo. At the same time, it echoes the mascot and the Chinese character "people", highlights the democratic thought of "people-oriented", strengthens the close relationship between people and the earth, and deepens the theme of the Shanghai World Expo. The emblem, with green as the main color, is full of vitality, adding upward, upward and lively movement and meaning, and expressing the creative passion of China people facing the future and pursuing sustainable development. The word "teacher" in China's calligraphy is similar to the word "Jing" in the seal cutting of the emblem of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, which symbolizes two super-large international competitions held in China at the beginning of this century and tells the story of China people's unremitting efforts to promote traditional culture while integrating into the world. Emblem of China 20 10 Shanghai World Expo:

[Edit this paragraph] The significance of hosting.

The World Expo is a post station of human civilization. Since 185 1 London's "International Industrial Works Exhibition", the World Expo has increasingly become a grand event in the global economic, scientific and cultural fields, and an important stage for people of all countries to sum up historical experience, exchange wisdom, embody the spirit of cooperation and look forward to future development. China, with a long history of oriental civilization, is a country that loves international exchanges and advocates world peace. China won the right to host the 20 10 World Expo, which is the first registered World Expo held in a developing country, reflecting the international community's support and trust in China's reform and opening up, as well as the people's concern and expectation for the future development of China. The volunteer team is huge, accounting for one thirtieth of China's current population.

[Edit this paragraph] Ecological assessment

Shanghai World Expo 20 10 The Shanghai World Expo will be held from May to June 10, which is in the midsummer season. The high temperature and summer heat is undoubtedly a major problem of the World Expo. In order to solve this problem, the relevant departments have adopted a set of urban design ecological evaluation system. The ecological evaluation system of urban design has carried out various simulation tests on the 5.28 square kilometers Expo site, including solar radiation, waste gas emission, wind direction route and so on. Taking wind direction simulation as an example, the 20 10 Shanghai World Expo was held in summer, which was mainly influenced by the southeast monsoon. Therefore, not only the buildings in the Expo Park are mostly in the southeast, but even the windows are open in the southeast. Wu Zhiqiang, the chief planner of the Shanghai World Expo, said that according to the urban monsoon route, street flows should be introduced into every building. In order to make the best use of the through flow, some pavilions in the Expo Park will be designed with empty floors, and the pavilions will be transformed into wind shields, so even if the temperature in the pavilions exceeds 30 degrees, there is no need to turn on the air conditioner, thus saving electricity. Besides monsoon, the shadow of the sun is also very useful in the design of exhibition halls and green spaces. The green coverage rate of Shanghai World Expo Park will exceed 40%, which will not only provide shade and rest place for the audience, but also play a role in cooling the park.

[Edit this paragraph] Features of museums

"Sci-tech Expo and Eco-Expo" is an important concept followed in the preparation of Shanghai World Expo. New technologies, new ideas, new energy sources and new materials have been widely used in the Expo site that has already started construction. Through a series of construction, the whole Expo will strive to create a good ecological environment of "blue sky and white clouds, clear water and green land" and finally realize the theme of "Better City, Better Life". China Pavilion: Natural sunshade is the national pavilion of the host country. The design concept of China Pavilion not only embodies the theme of the World Expo, but also considers environmental protection issues. The construction team strives to build the China Pavilion into a "green landmark" of the Shanghai World Expo. Solar cells will be installed on the top and exterior wall of the China Pavilion to ensure a strong energy supply, which is expected to make the China Pavilion completely self-sufficient in lighting power. The shape of the China Pavilion is layered, and in summer, it realizes natural shading from the upper floor to the lower floor. The corridors outside the museums in various provinces and cities are semi-outdoor glass corridors, and the roof of "China Pavilion Garden" will be effectively insulated by technical measures such as eco-agricultural landscape. In addition, all the windows of the National Pavilion are made of low-energy double glass, which saves energy by more than 25% compared with the traditional mode. Expo Center: Rainwater Utilization According to Fu Haicong, chief design officer of Expo Center, rainwater on the roof will be collected for road washing and greening irrigation, and it will be stored and reinjected through green spaces, sidewalks, squares and parking lots. So as to make full use of water resources as much as possible. The exterior wall of the building adopts various forms of composite curtain walls, such as glass-bonded aluminum plates, ceramic plates, stone materials, breathing glass curtain wall systems and low-radiation insulating glass, which meet people's pursuit of indoor sunshine and fresh air. Performing Arts Center: The curved appearance of the performing arts center with the green slope like a flying saucer is not only to highlight the fashion sense of this new cultural landmark, but also contains exquisite environmental protection concepts. The lower arc surface forms a self-shading system, which can avoid direct sunlight in high temperature season and provide natural lighting for the underground space of glass roof. If you look closely, you will find that there is a striking "green slope" outside the UFO, not hard cement. The role of "green slope" cannot be underestimated. In fact, it is the application of roof covering technology, which not only makes the Expo Performing Arts Center perfectly integrate into the surrounding water and green landscape, but also provides thermal insulation for the underground space extended by the venue. Norway Pavilion: 15 "Tree" constitutes the national pavilions, which also embodies the characteristics of environmental protection and energy saving. Among them, the Singapore Pavilion with the theme of "City Symphony" is basically like an "music box". In this building, various elements are intertwined, making visitors feel that they are in the center of the melody. Natural temperature control system and recyclable building materials will make every visitor who walks into Singapore Pavilion feel the comfort and beauty of "Garden City". With the theme of "Norway and Nature's Endowment", the Norway Pavilion will be composed of 15 huge "trees". The designer of the Norwegian Pavilion believes that the perfect building should be integrated with nature. They tried to combine Norwegian laminated timber with bamboo from China to form a new product "Sticky Bamboo", which became the raw material of "Tree" and could be reused after the exhibition.

[Edit this paragraph] Highlights of the park

Aspect 1: The world's largest ecological wall becomes a "green lung"

Anyone who has been to the Aichi World Expo will probably be deeply impressed by one of the "walls of life". This huge green wall is huge, with a length of 150m and a height of 12m. In the 20 10 theme pavilion of Shanghai World Expo, there is an ecological wall bigger than it, with an area of 4,000 square meters, ranking first in the world. On the outer walls on the east and west sides, there are now diamond-shaped steel shelves criss-crossing. In the autumn of 2009, countless modules with small shrubs will be installed on the shelves. After a winter and a spring maintenance, full green will be built on two walls until May/day of 20 10. Green wall is not only a kind of landscape, but also an important part of green building. In summer, the green thermal insulation external wall can be used to block radiation, reduce the air temperature near the surface of the external wall and reduce heat conduction; Winter will not affect the solar radiation heat of the wall, but also form an insulation layer, reduce the wind speed and prolong the service life of the external wall. In fact, the function of this "ecological wall" goes far beyond this. According to experts, the "ecological wall" is by no means as simple as "looking good". On the one hand, it can reduce light pollution. There are many exhibition halls in the park. If the facade adopts ordinary glass walls, the reflected light source will be dazzling in the scorching sun, which will hurt people's eyesight. Replacing the glass wall with "ecological wall" not only has no light pollution, but also is beneficial to eye adjustment and rest. In addition, this "ecological wall" can also play the role of making oxygen. You know, plants can be natural "purifiers". One square meter of lawn or green plants can absorb 1.5g of carbon dioxide per hour, and 25 square meters of lawn can absorb all the carbon dioxide exhaled by a person. From this perspective, this 4,000-square-meter fence has become the "green lung" of the park. Not only that, this "ecological wall" is also a natural "vacuum cleaner" and "addict" and a "noise reducer". You know, the Expo site receives more than 400,000 people every day, and the green wall can effectively reduce the noise and prevent tourists from feeling too noisy.

Aspect 2: The scale of solar energy application has reached a record.

20 10 Shanghai World Expo Park will have a solar power generation capacity of 5,000 kilowatts, making it one of the largest urban areas with concentrated solar energy in China. It is understood that in the Beijing Olympic Village, after the completion of a 6,000-square-meter solar photothermal system, about16,000 athletes can bathe, saving 2,000 tons of coal every year. The use of solar energy for power generation in Shanghai World Expo can be said to be a continuation of Beijing's "Green Olympics" spirit, which fully embodies the concept of green, energy-saving and environmental protection of Shanghai World Expo 20 10. The World Expo Park, with a planned land area of 5.28 square kilometers, will apply solar energy to a large area in the field of new energy. Major venues and facilities, as well as self-built pavilions in some countries, will be equipped with solar energy facilities and connected to Shanghai's main power grid for transmission, so as to explore experiences for the large-scale development and utilization of solar energy in cities. Among them, China Pavilion and Theme Pavilion will build a set of solar photovoltaic power generation devices and integrated buildings with a total scale of about 3 MW. After the completion of this green energy device, it is estimated that carbon dioxide can be reduced by about 1980 tons per year, which is equivalent to using about 900 tons of standard coal less.

Aspect 3: You can also take a "sunshine bath" underground.

When it comes to underground space, most people give the impression that it is dark and dreary, and the "Sunshine Valley" of the Expo Axis solves this problem. With the appearance of trumpet, Sunshine Valley is like a funnel. The surface is covered with glass, which reflects the light, but through the reasonable shielding of the giant film, the effective shading effect is achieved, which is a wonderful idea. The conical "Sunshine Valley" also has the function of rainwater collection, and the recovered rainwater can be used for toilets, green irrigation and other water in the Expo Park. On the Expo axis, six huge cone-shaped "sunshine valleys" are distributed at the entrance and middle of the Expo axis. Their unique shapes can help sunlight to naturally incline underground, which not only helps to improve air quality, but also saves energy consumption caused by artificial lighting. Introducing sunlight into the ground, the Shanghai World Expo has made another bold attempt.

[Edit this paragraph] Business hours

20 10 On April 20th, Shanghai World Expo Park was put into trial operation for the first time before its official opening. About 200,000 citizens from all walks of life became the first tourists to enter the park. On May, 2065438 1 day, the opening day of the Shanghai World Expo went smoothly. By May 19, there were 208,000 visits, which was lower than expected.

[Edit this paragraph] Public transportation

In order to meet the needs of tourists crossing the river and watching exhibitions in different regions, the Expo Park will build a convenient public transportation system, including 1 rail transit line, 4 bus lines and 5 ferry lines. The bus service in the park will be basically free. Rail Transit: Line 20 10 Rail Transit 13 will be a dedicated rail transit line for the World Expo, with 3 stations and 2 sections, which can carry 40,000 passengers in both directions during peak hours. Bus route: **4. 1. The length of the cross-river bus line crossing the special tunnel for Tibet Road in the Expo is 14km, and vehicles travel along the boundary of the Expo fence, with one station on one side, Puxi Park 1 station and Pudong Park 4 stations. It is planned to configure 130 buses with a length of 12m. Second, Puming Road, which undertakes the traffic flow of Pudong Park, has a total length of 4.6 kilometers, with stations on both sides and 5 pairs of stations. It is planned to allocate 36 buses with a length of12m. The other two are auxiliary bus lines in Pudong, which will undertake short-distance traffic in the park. The vehicle type is low-speed sightseeing bus, and the station distance is about 100 meters. Among them, the one-way length of the auxiliary bus line of the North Ring Road is about 2.5 kilometers, and the one-way length of the auxiliary bus line of the elevated trail is about 2.4 kilometers. Cross-river ferry: There will be 2 VIP docks, 6 ferry docks, 5 ordinary routes (24,000-24,000 passengers can take during peak hours), 1 VIP route.
