Oko kungekudala kuya kuba sesona sakhiwo side sakhiwe ngamaplanga kuMntla Merika sisakhiwa kwiYunivesithi yaseBritish Columbia (UBC). Enye yezinto ezintsha zehlabathi "zezakhiwo zokhuni," ibonisa oko
umthi ohambelana nokusingqongileyo unokusetyenziswa njengesakhelo sokwakha izakhiwo ezinkulu nje ngoqoqosho kunye nokhuseleko njengekhonkrithi encinci yezinto eziphilayo, iglasi kunye nentsimbi.

Esinye sezixhobo eziphambili ekuqulunqweni kwayo kunye nokwakhiwa kwayo iya kuba lubizo lwenkomfa.

Le projekthi yadibanisa amaqabane alishumi elinesibini, kwaye yazibandakanya neqela loyilo kumazwekazi amaninzi. Isixa esimangalisayo solwazi olufunekayo kungekuphela nje ukwabelana, kodwa kusetyenzwa kwinkqubo yentsebenziswano.

Njengeprojekthi entsha phantsi kwemakroskopu yoluntu kakhulu, indawo yokuhlala ayinakho ukuhlawula iimpazamo.

Le projekthi ngumzekelo ogqibeleleyo wendlela iifowuni zeenkomfa ezinokunceda ukugcina iqela lezinto ezininzi ezidibeneyo kwiprojekthi eyimpumelelo.

Esona sakhiwo Side saMaplanga eMntla Melika

Xa kuvulwa indawo yokuhlala yabafundi iTall Wood Building enemigangatho eyi-18 ngoSeptemba 2017, iza kuba likhaya labafundi abangama-400 kwizitudiyo ezingama-272 kunye namagumbi amane okulala angama-33. Abanye babafundi abahlala kwisakhiwo somthi esiziimitha ezingama-53 baza kubandakanyeka kuphando lokubeka esweni ukusebenza kwesakhiwo.

Indawo yokuhlala ikhulise ukukhuselwa komlilo, kwaye yayiyisiseko sokuqala sokwakha kwi-BC ukuhlangabezana nemigaqo emitsha ye-2015 yeSizwe yeKhowudi yoKwakha ukuze kuncitshiswe umonakalo kwinyikima.

Iminxeba yeNkomfa igcina amaqela amacandelo amaninzi edibeneyo

Ngenxa yokuba ingcamango ye-skyscraper yeplanga iguquguqukayo kwaye izinzileyo, iprojekthi yatsala amaqabane amaninzi enkxaso-mali kuquka; IiNkonzo zeZindlu ze-UBC, iBhunga le-Binational Softwood Lumber, uTyalo-mali lokuTyalwa kwezaMahlathi, iMithombo yeNdalo yaseKhanada, kunye ne-BC's Ministry of Forests.

Iqela loyilo lamacandelo amaninzi lalilikhulu kakhulu kuneeprojekthi zokwakha eziqhelekileyo.

Ikhokelwa yiVancouver's Acton Ostry Architects, iqela libandakanya iingcali zomthi ezide zaseAustria abakhi UHermann Kaufmann, iziko lophando lwecandelo lehlathi laseKhanada elingenzi nzuzo, I-FPInnovations, iinjineli zezakhiwo zengingqi Fast + Epp, izatifikethi ze-LEED, kunye nentaphane yamashishini, bonke ababedinga ukwabelana ngolwazi olubalulekileyo ngendlela yentsebenziswano.

Ugqithiso lolwazi kunye nokuveliswa kweengcamango

Enye yeengqikelelo ezingundoqo ze-UBC's Tall Wood Building yayikukuba inokukhuphisana nemathiriyeli yolwakhiwo lwemveli ngokwexabiso.

Babengasoloko bekwazi ukuhlawula iindleko zokuhambisa iinjineli zase-Austrian kunye nabaphathiswa bephondo abaxakekileyo ukuya kwiintlanganiso zenyama.

Nangona kunjalo ulwazi olufunekayo ukuba luhanjiswe ngokuchanekileyo, kwaye ngaphezu koko, babedinga intsebenziswano, iindlela ezimbini, ixesha lokwenyani apho ulwazi olungako lwalunokutshintshwa, lugqitywe, kwaye lwenziwe kuyilo olungazange lubonwe ihlabathi ngaphambili.

Izinto ezilungileyo zeefowuni zeenkomfa

Iifowuni zeNkomfa kunye namaqela ahlukeneyo oyilo ngumdlalo omkhulu ngenxa yeempawu zonxibelelwano zenkomfa ezinikezelayo.

1. Rekhoda umnxeba yenza isibonelelo esisisigxina seentlanganiso, kunye neerekhodi zezigqibo ezenziweyo, ukuvelisa ngokuzenzekelayo ifayile yeMP3 kwiiyure ezimbini ezinokuthi zibhalwe ukuze zisetyenziswe kamva njengemizuzu okanye izinto zokukhutshwa kweendaba.
2. Ukwabelana ngesikrini kwaye Inkomfa yeWebhu zizixhobo ezibalulekileyo zamagcisa abonakalayo afana nabayili bezakhiwo kunye neenjineli zokuqinisekisa ukuba ulwazi olufanayo luphambi komntu wonke.
3. Umsindo ocacileyo weCrystal. Iifowuni zenkomfa yokwenyani ngeeselfowuni okanye iifowuni zasekhaya zisusa iSkype Echo kunye namazwi erobhothi, kwaye uncede amalungu eqela ukuva imikhondo echuliweyo yonxibelelwano lwabantu abayidingayo ukuze basebenze ngentsebenziswano.
4. Inkomfa ngevidiyo inceda ukuzisa amandla obuso ngobuso kwiiseshoni zokwenziwa kwezigqibo eziphambili.

Nangona iifowuni zenkomfa-kunye ne-videoconferencing-zinokuba simahla, ukonga okwenyani kweprojekthi kuza kugcino lwexesha labasebenzi kunye nokwanda kwemveliso. Kwihlabathi lehlabathi, apho izenzo ezingcono zisulungekiswa ngaxeshanye kwiindawo ezininzi zamazwe ngamazwe, iifowuni zeenkomfa sisixhobo esifanelekileyo sokugcina ulwazi luhamba kunye neengcamango ziphuphuma.
