WORKSHOP
The double backbone of the BETON is the course that provides the theoretical framework, and the workshop that handles the technical details. These two form a unit and strengthen each other throughout the semester.
We invite representatives of this amazing material in our course- urban planners, designers, architects and artists- who educate the students about the many ways concrete can be used, how to pair form and function with concrete, and how to alter public space through small scale interventions, through presentations and workshops. These lectures and symposiums provide context and fine tune the minds of our students.
The workshops will be exploring the practical application of concrete, and we will give our students the opportunity of making experimental plastic units. Our goal is to give hands on knowledge of the properties of this amazing material, its practical applications, all the while working in groups and fostering a sense of community. Aside from the student groups, we will also invite artists, architects, and students who have already done the course to help out and divulge their knowledge. This makes for groups with varying levels of technical knowledge, which leads to new ways of applying concrete each year.
CAREER
Many former students of the S’39 Hybrid Design Manufacture Workshops just can’t let go of us, once they have finished one of our classes. Because S’39 Hybrid Design Manufacture works on its’ own projects with the aid of guest artists, designers, architects and students, there are many chances for former students to return to this great setting to actively participate in a complex design and building process, and to experience the unexpected situations which come with these projects, the great triumphs over small setbacks, and the success of a completed work. New inquirers into the BETON workshop start as juniors, but if they have an affinity for concrete, or just really like the course, they can come back as seniors the following year, to help the new generation. And the seniors who have big plans or even small ones that they wish to have the juniors help them with can come back to us as mentors. And who will become our new consultants? We shall soon find out! How much you take on is all up to you!
WORKROOM
The Workshop of the BETON course is a creative space that has all of the technical apparatus necessary to make, pour and manipulate concrete, where we hope to invite design, architecture and art students primarily, but anyone who has a desire to learn about the artistic applications of working with concrete in invited. The 80 square-metre space not only provides a place to do the manual work necessary, but works as a MeetLab, as a communal space, which can provide a place to brainstorm and do design work. The workshop also functions as a showroom and gallery, and can serve as a place for aspiring designers, architects and artists to showcase their work. Our multifaceted activities all have the elevation of material culture and visual art as their goal.

TOOLS
The Stoczek street workshop is truly a workshop, with all of the materials and tools necessary for working with concrete, which is shared by many; first and foremost the skilled labourers of the future, design and architecture students.
The leader of the space assumes responsibility for the workshop, its order and the safety of anyone entering the workshop, together with the people who use the space.
The materials and equipment that is not used are put away in STORAGE. Completely separated from the 80 square meter workshop lies a dust free Communal Space that is perfect for designing and theoretical work.

WORKROOM PRACTICE
MeetLab is run and rented by numerous people. Please, respect the space and equipment of others. Don’t use their equipment or workshop without asking them, and do not bother them in their work.
Everybody uses the workshop at their own risk! Please be careful, and mind others as well.
Please either send us an e-mail, or give us a written declaration in person that you have read the workshop rules and understand them, and agree to use the workshop at your own risk. These are the spaces you can use as part of the BETON workshop:
- the BETON Workshop (the room with the concrete mixer), primarily for dirty work, and can be used for mixing, pouring, cutting and polishing concrete.
- the common area- for work that is less messy, and can be done on a table, like making jalousie (no dust here please!). You can rest here, but please hang your coats and bags on the hooks.
- toilets, kitchen
- storage, changing room
The workshop can be used at any time, but you cannot engage in noisy activity form 20:00 until 8:00.
Each team will have ONE set of keys to the workshop, and we will be wanting them back at the end of the course. The keys are kept by the mentor, s/he will be opening the rooms, and closing them back up when everyone is done, and is responsible for the tidiness of the space as well.
Only the participants, mentors and consultants of the course can work in the workshop. You can of course have guests, but they are NOT allowed to use the machines or do any work there.
The mentor is responsible for tidiness and order, for safety, and for the work to be properly put away and the space be cleaned up after work.
If a team does not have someone who is adept at using the tools, then they can only work with a supervisor. This will require the team to set up a date and time with the supervisor.
The workshop is going to be primarily used by those that have previously signed up on our MeetLab workshop schedule. If there is space available, others can join. The schedule is available to mentors, consultants and to the supervisors as well.
Everyone has to clean up after themselves! Make sure you clean up during work as well, and once you’re done, put everything back where you found it, and sweep the floors. Make sure you clean equipment before returning it.
You can only mix concrete with the mentor or consultant present! Take extra care and make sure you have your ratios and mixing instructions down before mixing!
When pouring concrete, make sure your jalouise is not in the way of anyone’s work until it hardens, try and make it take up as little space as possible. At the end of the course, all work left there will be towed, we do NOT keep abandoned things around for later, so either bring it with you, or it’s gone.
Instructions for settling: please keep the drain used for settling and draining concrete clean, as it tends to overflow, and if it does, drain the excess water with a bucket and take it out to the gutters in the street.
We collect our rubbish selectively, so please recycle your garbage while on our premises.
Handling debris: In order to protect our environment, we ask you to properly handle your construction debris. All waste made during construction that has no paper, plastic, metal, biological wastes, rubber or glass is considered clean construction waste, and can be reused.
