INTRODUCTION A sports complex is a group of sports facilities available in same location within the boundary of that area. For example, there are track and field stadiums, football stadiums, baseball stadiums, swimming pools, and gymnasiums. This area is a sports complex, for fitness Sport complex are very important in terms of health and fitness. In context of Nepal there is very limited numbers of the sport complex which are in use but not up to the mark.
Role of sports “That only the strong shall thrive, that surely the weak will perish and only fit will survive” -Robert w. service “the preservation of health is aduty , few seen conscious that there is a thing such as physical morality” - Hobert spencer
Types of sports complexes The variation at the present time: The leisure centre - commercially sponsored The educational sports campus- sports are being taught The community sports centre / complex
Concepts of sports Running and swimming were the only means to move around in the olden days, for food and shelter Archery was a hunting skill and even wrestling and boxing (without gloves) used to get food and even for safety from wild animals Now these basic ways of survival are for the purpose of measuring the human beings strength against other

Changing room and shower facilities Typically , manufacturers supply locker units that are 0.5 m deep, 0.3 m wide and arranged in 1.8 m high columns. These can contain either two individual ‘half height’ lockers or a single ‘full height’ locker. Some should be wider (say 0.4 m x 1.8 m) to accommodate larger sports bags, children’s buggies and mobility aids.
Allow one shower point to every six changing spaces. Provide a separate dry off area and include a proportion of cubicle showers Shower outlets should be at 0.75 m centres with 0.45-0.5 m between end fittings and side walls. Fittings carried around an internal corner should be to an increased space standard to allow for wheelchair access. Showers on opposing walls should be spaced 2.5 m apart to permit a central circulation route and will require a separate dry off area to one end.

TICKETING AND RECEPTION
MEDIA TRIBUNE AND COMMENTARY It should be centrally located in a position that provides an unobstructed view of the field of play, without the possibility of interference from spectators.
COMMENTARY POSITIONS • Commentary position should be in a centre in the main grandstand on the same side as the main camera positions. • Commentary position should be separated from spectators by Plexiglas or other suitable means foracoustic separation.
Wheelchair users should not be isolated from their companions. Wheelchair seating must be provided in all areas Companion seat next to wheelchair seat Wheelchair seating locations must provide line of sight comparable to those provided to other spectators Food items and other service areas must be provided within reach of a person using a wheelchair WHEELCHAIR USERS
Arrangement for camera / media / lighting Camera block should be at the top of stadium Different location to get full view Natural lighting Side light: avoid glare> vary intensity Sky light: cause glare, so north light is preferred Artificial lighting: 300 lux(recreation) 500 lux (competition) indirect
Concept of material used and structural system Light weight, cheap , easy to renovate Only steel and A.C. sheets used in moulded form False ceiling is done for insulation Thermocol , A.C. decking used to cover larger span Steel is suitable to cover spans without columns
Long Span Construction Common Structural Forms Insitu RC, tensioned Precast concrete, tensioned Structural steel – erected on spot Structural steel – prefabricated and installed on spot Portal frame – insitu RC Portal frame – precast Portal frame – prefabricated steel Example of structures: Cable structures Tent structures Pneumatic structures Arch structures Flat trusses Curved trusses Space trusses Beam structures Frame structures Slab structures Plate structures Folded structures Shell structures
Comparison of basic structural forms for leisure buildings Braced frame in simple construction Portal frame Truss Advantages Simple design Long span Very long spans possible Minimum column sizes and masses Designed to be stable in-plane Heavy loads may be carried Simple analysis of determinate structure Member sizes and haunches may be optimised for efficiency Modest deflection Disadvantages Relatively short span Software required for efficient design Generally more expensive fabrication Bracing needed for in-plane stability Limited to relatively light vertical loading, and modest cranes to avoid excessive deflections Generally bracing is used for in-plane stability Can be uneconomic if serviceability governs the floor design . .
Seating facilities Stands for spectators can be fixed or movable. For small stands with up to 10 steps of seating, the gradient of the rows can be linear (height 0.28-0.32 m). Height of eye level: 1.25m seated, 1.65m standing. Height of sight-line: 0.15m seated, 0.12m standing. Distance for standing spaces 0.4-0.45 m The point of reference for the sight-line is 0.5m above the playing area boundary marking Spectator areas behind goals should be protected with mobile safety nets. Access from below is more cost-effective (saving on staircases and separate entrances) but has a disadvantage in that people arriving during an event will disturb the players and the spectators already present.
Total height of seat should be 1200mm (4’) (from the base of lower tread to top of height of man) Seat height=450mm(1’6”) Seat width=800mm (2’8”) Gap of one person to legs of other person on behind =250mm Width of legs of persons=200mm(8”) Tread width=82-92mm(32-36”) Riser=8 or 11mm to 57mm (3 or 4” to 22.2”) Width of aisle tread=92mm (32”) Seating arrangement
Flooring Sprung Floor Construction Flexible Floor Impact Absorbing Floor Construction of surface treated, glued wooden-block floor
Equipment store facilities • A total of 12.5% of the hall floor area is required as a minimum for sports equipment. • Stores should have easy access from the hall with wide door openings and at least 2.5 m clear height to allow for storing small trampolines
Acoustics The level of sound insulation within the building fabric to prevent distracting sound from external sources being transmitted into the hall should also be considered
Services HVAC system:- The following systems are often seen as the most appropriate for sports halls: • Radiant heating ceiling panels with a separate ventilation system • Combined ducted warm air and ventilation delivering through air handling units (AHU ).
CAFETERIA Planning Factors Interior Planning Seating Space Food bars and Counters Serving Units Kitchen
Planning factors Ambience is a important factor. Large regular spaces should be broken up into smaller more intimate areas. Changes of level are not usually favored by caterers. The cash desk may be at the entrance, by service doors or within the kitchen area. Adaptability may be needed. The choice of lighting is very important in creating an atmosphere.

INTERNATIONAL CASE STUDY SAN WAYAO COMMUNITY SPORTS CENTER
SAN WAYAO COMMUNITY SPORTS CENTER
INTRODUCTION LOCATION MAP LOCATION: Jin Gui Lu, Wuhou Qu, Chengdu Shi, Sichuan Sheng, China ARCHITECT: CSWADI AREA: 11936 m² The large sports complex is tightly tucked in a high-rise- residential community. Its soft appearance provides a comfortable experience that is well-lit within, and equally striking out. The building takes what little footprint it has and is able to create both a fitness center and green space that functions as one.
STRUCTURE/ SPACE The relationship between structure and space portray a beautiful balance of form and function. The u-shaped glass panels provide a translucent facade that gently shows off its large cross-braced structural elements. The simple arrangement of columns and beams open the space volumetrically as well as illuminated naturally. Every piece of steel is painted to show off its strength and beauty within the larger complex of spaces.
ZONING The site is divided into SPORTS RETAIL and ACTIVITIES VENUE Multiple dwelling SAN WAYAO community sports center Ancillary building Retail High rise residence
CONCEPT The idea of literally pushing more space out of the building and site create a unique cohesiveness between the two. To make the building and site integrated for producing friendly sports space . Created a sloping shape of the building by “extruding” and connecting the sports ground on the east with walk able sloping roof leading to a stronger space perception of the building as a public facility.
ORIENTATION The south facade allows for optimal solar gain and views, while still allowing the tiered effect on the stepped green space. The building funnels its shape to the East exterior focal point. Most of the spaces receives natural light so consumption of artificial light is minimum during day . fig: south elevation

Envelop Panels Circulation Egress Thermal and Ventilation System
Climate Analysis and Response The Koppen climate type of pheonix is hot desert so the project is designed to resist heat gain. One way in which it accomplishes this is by not glazing on its south and west facades. The psychrometric chart shows a large diurnal swing and humidity also has a wide range. Winds comes from every direction over flat landscapes, which must be taken into consideration for calculating the lateral loads on the building.
Psychometric Chart
PROGRAM The main program for building is exercise space split between the suspended track, the sport court and the exercise floor. The spaces are organized such that one enters in the lobby and reception space then moves past the offices to the lockers and then can exercise either in sport court or upstairs on the exercise floor.
STRUCTURE The building is steel concrete constuction . Trusses are used to span larger spaces like the basketball courts and exercise floor. Diagonal bracing and shear walls are used to help resist lateral loads. All loads are transferred to the ground by columns throughout the building. The building is supported by concrete slab foundation with concrete footings supporting major structural loads.
ENVELOPE: ZINC SCREEN WALL The zinc cladding is the outermost layer of the wall. It is very corrosive resistant and has a very long life . South east exterior
THERMAL AND VENTILATION SYSTEMS This building uses an HVAC system to maintain comfort and ventilation . The south and west facades have no glazing to help keep building cool. The conditioned air is distributed through ducts that are exposed throughout the building
CIRCULATION Throughout the building, the circulation is meant to be as accessible as possible for people with different disabilities. The passages are wide and main access to the basketball courts is by ramp . The main vertical circulation cores are located along the main corridor First Floor Corridor
EGRESS AND FIRE LIFE SAFETY The building has a fairly open floor plan and a space will not have specific exit like a door. Along with two vertical circulation, there is an additional egress stair that is on exterior part. Instead of making it like a normal fire escape, the architect made it a part of building form the curve of the zinc is cut out around the stair giving the south facade more visual interest.
