• The main focus of the design was to specify the structure of the project sine it is a symbol of the concrete factory product.
• In order to improve the main function of the project, we tried to have the right location of access to the functions regarding the function of the spaces.
• Therefore, the weighbridge and the labor section have been placed at the beginning of the site, the administrative and management sections have been placed further away from the weighbridge. Concrete machines and materials depots for parking lots and machine repair shops have been located farther away from other parts of the plan site due to noise pollution.
• The weighbridge construction has been located at the entrance and at the beginning of the site regarding its function.
• The laborer’s building is located near the weighbridge construction and in the initial part of the site. In the laborer’ building, regarding the intended sections, separate accesses have been provided in order not to interfere.
• In the administrative building, an attempt was made to separate the management space from the service and personnel spaces by placing a staircase in the center and as a result the required spatial separation is created in order to improve the spatial performance and not to interfere in different uses.
On the other hand, since the factory is used for the ready-mixed concrete and since the client’s traffic is high, it was decided that the stairwell space should be half open and the clients should stay less in the closed space.
• An attempt has been made here to use a geometry with certain lines for designing the volume and facade in addition to observing the symbol of northern
architecture being very sloped ceilings along with specific materials that have been used in all parts of the factory.
