Construction Period 2012 - 2014
The extension of the Mottier College represents three new buildings in
reinforced concrete constructed in phases.
Phase 1 includes the first pavilion with special rooms. The central area
has two staircases and a large skylight roof. The 2nd phase consists of
classrooms, a canteen with a kitchen and a multipurpose space. The 3rd
stage contains a gym, staff room and the second half of the classrooms.
The facade is made of prefabricated UHPFRC concrete elements.
Basements, being underground, are equipped with a waterproof lining.
The SCIA Engineer software has allowed us to solve all the difficulties of
the three projects using specific modules such as prestresss, document,
Soil-in and a BIM building approach.
For each step we created several models:
• A model for the calculation of the foundation subject to the groundwater
pressure studied with the Soilin module.
• A model for the 3D analysis of the concrete structure that allows us to
consider the two level wall prepared for the cantilever of buildings 2 and 3.
• A specific model for the calculation of prestressed supporting beams.
• A specific model for the analysis of the behaviour of the central
staircase under static load.
