建于1965年的西蒙菲莎大學本那比校區是加拿大建筑中重要的作品之一。其廣場則擁有雙重功能，既是一個公共空間，又可以作為下方教育空間的頂棚。歷經五十年的使用，頂棚上的薄膜與飾面亟需更新。

Built in 1965, the Erickson / Massey Simon Fraser University Campus is among the most significant pieces of Canadian architecture. The Plaza serves a double function as a public space and as a roof sheltering education spaces beneath. After fifty years of use, the roofing membrane and finishes gravely needed renewal.

本那比山形成的特殊微氣候產生了快速的凍融循環，加上排水不充分的因素，導致原有的陶瓷飾面損壞脫落。設計團隊采用透水鋪裝系統，并用加拿大花崗巖來替換現有的粘土磚來解決這一問題。

Burnaby Mountain’s unique microclimate produces rapid, freeze-thaw cycles. This and inadequate drainage caused the original ceramic finishes to fail. The design team addressed this challenge with a permeable paving system and replacement of existing clay tiles with Canadian granite.

本那比校區的創立是一個真正綜合的設計過程。廣場和主廳由Arthur Erickson與Geoffrey Massey設計，也包括其他設計團體的一些重要的設計作品，如Zoltan Kiss設計的學術合院、Rhone and Iredale設計的科學綜合體、Duncan McNab and Associates設計的劇院和體育館，以及由Robert Harrison設計的圖書館。這些建筑直接與主干道相連，形成一處集聚的整體。

The original creation of SFU’s iconic Burnaby campus plan was a truly integrated design process: The Plaza and Main Mall were designed by Arthur Erickson and Geoffrey Massey so that the significant architectural pieces designed by other firms – the Academic Quadrangle by Zoltan Kiss, the Science Complex by Rhone and Iredale, the Theatre and Gymnasium by Duncan McNab and Associates, the Library by Robert Harrison – would plug directly into the main pedestrian arterial and form a cohesive whole.

在近55年后的今天，翻修工作令諸多公司得以在校園的不同部分并肩作戰，但彼此間卻共享著同一個努力愿景，延續當年的精神。

Now, nearly 55 years later, the renewal involves as many firms working side-by-side on different portions of the campus aiming for alignment where their efforts meet and a continuation of the spirit and vision of the time.

為一處歷史悠久的公共空間注入新的生命，設計展開了更新而非替換的開創性嘗試，也為后世保留了60年前的重要文化遺產，對話、跨學科工作與景觀的整合均成為設計的靈感來源。

Breathing new life into an historic public space sets a precedent for renewal over replacement and also preserves important cultural heritage of the 1960s with its inspired goals of dialogue, interdisciplinary work, and landscape integration for future generations.

項目為全面改善公共空間提供了一個難得的機會，飾面、照明、樓梯、欄桿、家具和植物均煥然一新。此外，翻修工作尊重了會議廳上具有的儀式感，也為日常的使用提供了更多的契機，為大眾提供了一處可以集聚、逗留、閑談的場地。

This project provided a rare opportunity to comprehensively improve the public realm, including updates to surfaces, lighting, stairway finishes, railings, site furniture, and plantings. In addition, the renewal respects the formal ceremonial nature of Convocation Mall while providing increased opportunities for day-to-day users to gather, linger, and connect informally.

最小化的干預也為設計過程帶來了挑戰：現有的門窗和樓梯門檻的位置被限定在已有結構之上3.5英寸的范圍內。為了允許卡車通行，廣場需要澆筑加固，一個傳統的、僅由基座支撐的平面已經不再適用。雙層排水系統允許雨水即可通過地表排水口排出，也可通過透水砂漿系統（環氧樹脂與鳥眼石礫組成的結構）滲透，使水流直接穿過該層到達下方的防水膜。

Minimal intervention complicated the project: Existing door, window, and stair thresholds allowed no more than 3.5 inches of build-up on top of the existing structure. To support service trucks, the Plaza required a fully-grouted—rather than a conventional, pedestal-supported—finish. The two-level drainage system allows rain-water egress by surface drains and via a permeable mortar system (epoxy and birds-eye gravel matrix), allowing water to run right through to the membrane beneath.

建筑實踐正逐步厘清老化歷史混凝土的復雜問題。此次的廣場翻修項目推進了以混凝土保護為重點的研究歷程，對全尺寸原位安裝屋頂組件、雙層排水及新型注漿材料與系統等技術進行了探索。

Architectural practice is at the beginning of untangling the complexities of ageing historic concrete. The SFU Plaza project has helped advance research focused on concrete conservation (for example, the performance testing of full-scale, in-situ roof-assembly mock-ups, bi-level drainage, and new grouting materials and systems).

此外，廣場更新開發的計劃策略及研究成果支持了其他具有文化價值的“二戰”后建筑作品的保護工作，對其他現代主義風格校園也具有參考意義。可以說，此次更新將本那比校區這一廣場的壽命又延長了一倍。

In addition, the design strategies developed for the SFU Plaza renewal and research results support the efforts of others preserving post-war architectural works of cultural significance, including other Modernist campuses. The renewal doubled the life of the masterwork SFU Burnaby campus.
