Design and Construction of Church Hall for LCCN Cathedral Nyanya, Abuja

LCCN Nyanya church is located in Nyanya, Abuja Nigeria. The church is located on the highway leading to Nassarawa state from Abuja. The church building is surrounded by a number of buildings such as banks, offices, shops and residential buildings. The design concept was to allow the LCCN church blend with its natural and built environment. As a religious building, it is imperative to allow maximum air flow through ventilation, hence the window placement and sizes were calculated as applicable. More so, there is an essential need for allowing daylight in order to utilize the natural lighting from the sun and beams of light from the sky/cloud. The daylight from the sun, and stars at night allowed to enter the building through strategic window placement is to establish a relationship between the interior and exterior, to provide that holy environment and solemn state of being before God while in the building. The headroom was also made high to encourage sound absorption and give a sense of reverence for the church users. While we are particular about building aesthetics and sustainability, we also realize that, the church building needs to have sound reduction properties in the wall and the roof, and for that reason, in Aso Riv Consult we considered the five elements of sound reduction (Absorption, Dampening, Decoupling, Distance, and Adding Mass).
