Domino_21 is a prototype that appears as an academic exercise at Escuela Técnica Superior de Arquitetura de Madrid (ETSAM) created for the CONSTRUTEC’04 with the collaboration of Students and the Architect J. M. Reyes. It aims the construction of flexible collective housing, and it’s about an open mechanism capable of adapting, with ease, to the specific needs of its users with the use of different combination of the pieces - thence the ‘’domino’’. This structure has three levels, the first one being dedicated to the reception of the public, a room for exposition and a cafeteria. The first and second floor have five different apartments, all aiming to show a variety of possibilities of different users and configurations. There is a student housing (80m2), an Artist Studio (31,5m2), an apartment for a retired couple and their visits (70m2), Duplex’s for a couple with kids (100m2), and even a corrector Home office (70m2). Finally there is a passable cover. Each level, has three rows: a central one, which is unchangeable, and the two side rows configured in modules, those having the wet areas (bathroom and kitchen), offices, and terraces. These booths can be easily changed to get different apartment configuration and to adapt to the users needs. Its construction is made with the principles of industrialization with compatible standard components (S.3c) and it consists in a catalogue of standard components of different brands that are compatible with each other. It ends up in fully equipped booths, supported by a tubular square section frame and are attached to the base body with wooden structure. Thus the central unit, with parallelepiped shape is surrounded by an independent metal structure connected to the first frame. Inside we can find wheeled cabinets and sliding panels to divide different areas and uses. The construction of Domino.21 was designed with a concept of modular building that inserts itself into a dynamic space using materials produced in series that allows spatial flexibility and technological flexibility. This type of housing allows a response to different ways of life, that can be repeatedly rearranged.

The housing complex of ‘Bairro da Bouça‘ was designed by the awarded architect Siza Vieira. It appear out necessity after the Portuguese April 25th Revolution, to help the poor housing condition in Porto, where people had what they called “islands” - authentic slums hidden inside the blocks, with people living in very poor conditions. There was the need of building houses, with high quality at low prices. The tion

project design is functional and minimalist, the visual composition of the facades resulting from the unique distribuof stairs, doors and windows, asymmetrical by each floor, and a system of passages that connect the whole complex.

The construction was done by parts, and the entire neighborhood has four buildings that are 4-floors high, side by side. Its location is close to the metro rail so there was a need to construct a wall that protects the apartments from the noise. It consists of 2-stacked apartments that each take 2 floors. The top one has a kitchen, living room, and bedroom at the gallery level with 2 bedrooms and a bath on the second floor with a total of 74m2. In the ground floor apartment, the bedrooms are on the lower level and living spaces above, with a second external stair connecting to the upper floor. The upper dwellings have small balconies and a small recessed entry porch and it has a total of 80m2.

INDUSTRIAL PREFABRICATION Production of Buildings products by way of industrial techniques. Building Methods • Solid Construction: Masonry/ Concrete Structure; • Frame Construction: Steel/Timber;

Timber- American frame construction

After the industrial Revolution, iron established new standards of architectural quality. It appeared systems with prefabricated elements, wich where usefull in bridge construction, for faster construction. The first use of iron on buildings where on glasshouses.

Concrete - Domino House Project, Le Corbusier

The demand of houses, and lack of standard Building material makes the steel and timber industries kick off to find alternative house solutions.

Iron - Crystal Palace

Another building material appears, - the concrete, wich was suitable for monolithic construction of great stability. The surges the ideia that building should be produced in series, standardised and prefabricated, so they could be assembled on site according to the principles of modulor construction.

Office Building Centraal, Beheer, Apeldoom 1970-1972, Herman Hertzberger

• Module - Dimension of geomettric clasification; • Grid-Geometrical system that determines the position and dimension of moldular building elements; • Dimensional Coordination-Determines the spacing and location f the building elements • Transport • Assembly • Jointing

SYSTEMS AND COMPONENTS MODULAR CONSTRUCTION Gerald Staib, Andreas Dorrhofer; Markus Rosenthal

Nomadic people where always on the move, and needed to quickly assemble a dweel. They transported the materials to avoid looking for them in eache location. They needed to be lightweight and easy to handle. When they settled in one place, construction started do develop, to more complex systems, and durable ones.
