Conceptual Architecture Notes: Planning, Units of Measure, and Material Integration by Jonathan Olvera
Conceptual Architecture Notes: Planning, Units of Measure, and Material Integration I. Overview of Structural Planning Goals The objective is to develop a modular system for architectural design that integrates advanced units of measurement, material grading, and bio-reactive/functional systems. Special focus on: Columnar structures Graded materials Sanitation and plumbing systems Integration with bio-compatible structures like cromlechs (megalithic forms) Use of lightweight, sustainable materials II. Units of Measure & Grading System A. Proposed Measurement Units Nano-scale Grading: Use a standard of 60-grade resolution per nanometer for material texture, chemical reactivity, or alignment at atomic scales. Millimeter-Scale Grading: Use 6-grade increments per millimeter for structural alignment, external facing, and joinery compatibility. B. Material Reactivity & Composition Introduce a 60-grade classification system for: Chemical reaction agents (e.g., catalysts, bon...
