建于1965年的西蒙菲莎大学本那比校区是加拿大建筑中重要的作品之一。其广场则拥有双重功能，既是一个公共空间，又可以作为下方教育空间的顶棚。历经五十年的使用，顶棚上的薄膜与饰面亟需更新。

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气候产生了快速的冻融循环，加上排水不充分的因素，导致原有的陶瓷饰面损坏脱落。设计团队采用透水铺装系统，并用加拿大花岗岩来替换现有的粘土砖来解决这一问题。

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.

本那比校区的创立是一个真正综合的设计过程。广场和主厅由Arthur Erickson与Geoffrey Massey设计，也包括其他设计团体的一些重要的设计作品，如Zoltan Kiss设计的学术合院、Rhone and Iredale设计的科学综合体、Duncan McNab and Associates设计的剧院和体育馆，以及由Robert Harrison设计的图书馆。这些建筑直接与主干道相连，形成一处集聚的整体。

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，翻修工作令诸多公司得以在校园的不同部分并肩作战，但彼此间却共享着同一个努力愿景，延续当年的精神。

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.

为一处历史悠久的公共空间注入新的生命，设计展开了更新而非替换的开创性尝试，也为后世保留了60年前的重要文化遗产，对话、跨学科工作与景观的整合均成为设计的灵感来源。

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.

项目为全面改善公共空间提供了一个难得的机会，饰面、照明、楼梯、栏杆、家具和植物均焕然一新。此外，翻修工作尊重了会议厅上具有的仪式感，也为日常的使用提供了更多的契机，为大众提供了一处可以集聚、逗留、闲谈的场地。

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.

最小化的干预也为设计过程带来了挑战：现有的门窗和楼梯门槛的位置被限定在已有结构之上3.5英寸的范围内。为了允许卡车通行，广场需要浇筑加固，一个传统的、仅由基座支撑的平面已经不再适用。双层排水系统允许雨水即可通过地表排水口排出，也可通过透水砂浆系统（环氧树脂与鸟眼石砾组成的结构）渗透，使水流直接穿过该层到达下方的防水膜。

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.

建筑实践正逐步厘清老化历史混凝土的复杂问题。此次的广场翻修项目推进了以混凝土保护为重点的研究历程，对全尺寸原位安装屋顶组件、双层排水及新型注浆材料与系统等技术进行了探索。

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，广场更新开发的计划策略及研究成果支持了其他具有文化价值的“二战”后建筑作品的保护工作，对其他现代主义风格校园也具有参考意义。可以说，此次更新将本那比校区这一广场的寿命又延长了一倍。

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.
