UCLA Spieker Aquatic Center and Dirks Pool
(# 381) |
|
|
|
| The Spieker Aquatic Center converts existing tennis courts into UCLA’s first competitive aquatic sport facility. Supporting UCLA’s NCAA Division 1 National Champion intercollegiate aquatic athletics, the center includes an outdoor 52M-competition pool, a 10m dive tower, spectator seating for 2,500, team lockers, ticketing and vending, multi-purpose classroom, training center and support spaces. The project is designed around several sustainable principles achieving LEED® Gold certification. Minimization energy use by daylighting the building, naturally cooling and ventilating the spaces, and radiant heating the floors, combined with selection of materials, making a small environmental footprint. Unique technologies include harnessing the heated water of the pool for the radiant heating in the building - through heat exchangers to heat the closed, under floor system. |
