Short description │
Summer house in Halkidiki
The project concerns a summer house in Halkidiki. It is a two-storey building located just a few metres
from the Aegean sea. The location is actually within an area prone to hazardous seismic activity. The
strongest earthquake of the 20th century in this area was the Ierissos earthquake that struck in 1932,
with a magnitude of 7.0 on the Richter scale. The building is concrete, with plates that are adjusted
directly to the columns and walls without beams. For specifying the transfer of the horizontal seismic
forces from the plates to the vertical elements, without the existence of beams, an FE modelisation was
necessary. The structure was analysed and designed using Scia Engineer and ECTools software in
order to describe the whole structure using surface and linear finite elements.

we offer advanced solutions in structural analysis, design, and the supervision of the construction of
special structures like Steel structures (steel buildings, industrial silos, oil tanks, wind turbines, etc.),
Concrete structures (industrial buildings, parking facilities, multi-storey buildings, hotels, etc.) and site
restoration projects.
Some of our customers are: Hellenic Petroleum, ALUMIL, FIBRAN, Port of Thessaloniki, Tate & Lyle,
Bank of Greece, Municipality of Thessaloniki, Aluminium of Greece etc.
Our office is also active in the research area, producing scientific papers and participating in
conferences and research programmes. The recent EU research programme HISTWIN (High-strength
Steel Towers for WINd turbines) is one programme we have participated in.
