Vall d'en Joan Landfill
Ecotech Elective | S17
Professor Teresa Gali-Izard
I developed grading, planting, and soil remediation strategies for the unconstructed Phase III of Vall d'en Joan Landfill in Barcelona, an ongoing project by Teresa Gali-Izard in collaboration with Battle i Roig Arquitectes. The ground is composed of trash rather than soil, so I had to rely on filling alone (no cutting) to reshape the site. My proposal was to extend the form of the mountain on the landfill's east side and channel water to reservoirs on terraces along the landfill's west side. I used AutoCAD Civil 3D for the grading portion of this task.
