[committee] New spaces - Guild First Floor

Wed Jul 10 11:29:41 AWST 2019

Hi Conrad,

UCC have several issues with the current draft plans for a new clubroom
space.

The first and most important of them being that the new clubroom would be
smaller than our current clubroom.

1. The proposed room is 36m^2 (8.3 x 4.4m) while our current clubroom is
roughly 41m^2 (5.4 x 7.5m). This decrease in space paired with relocating
the snack and coke machines into the clubroom would massively decrease the
amount of room that we have to work with. There is no space dedicated to
storage, which is necessary for a technical club with a collection of
historical machines that are used for learning. These plans lack storage
both for large equipment, and also for tools and books. In the current
space, the snack and coke machines and some storage are maintained outside
the clubroom, while we have shelving for books, a tool cupboard and a
shelving rack in the clubroom.

2. In these designs, the standing workbench looks to be planned as part of
the center island. This also looks to be not large enough an area for
safely building technical components and computers.

3. The server room: The door should swing outwards so that it does not
further limit the space inside. There are no dimensions on the server room
currently, but we have 2 racks which require 1.150m by 0.920m per rack plus
a minimum .9m clearance in front, .6m clearance at the back.

4. According to these plans, UCC is being cut-off from other student clubs,
which is not optimal for the direction of our club at UWA. Are there more
long-term Guild plans with respect to clubs in this part of the building?

Given the problems that there are currently with this design, crucially the
decreased allocation of space, moving from the current clubroom to this
would be a step backwards for UCC.

I believe it would be useful for the architect to visit UCC to understand
the requirements of the club. There will be someone available every day
this week between 8am and 5pm to show the clubroom if necessary.

Kind regards,

Grace Rosario
