The Bau-Consult Hermsdorf GmbH was founded in 1990 as an engineering
office for overall project planning. It operates from its head office in
Hermsdorf / Thuringia and has 62 employees (architects, structural engineers
and technical designers). We plan and develop projects for both public and
private owners, including residential and administration buildings, industrial
and commercial constructions, civic projects for the public authorities, and
the restoration and redevelopment of existing historic structures. One of
our biggest strengths as a company is in the planning of pre-fabricated
constructions made of reinforced and prestressed concrete elements.

Construction Period 02/2013 - 05/2014
The shopping centre was built in conjunction with the furniture store IKEA.
The one and two-storey building measures about 210 m long by 100 m
wide.
The structural system consists of pre-fabricated concrete columns
mounted in sleeve foundations, pre-fabricated single concrete beams,
concrete slabs, and the steel construction supported by both inclined steel
columns and concrete elements.
The diagonal braces, defined as tension rods, are elements essential for
the structural stabilisation of the steel system. The roof’s steel construction
transfers only compression forces onto the roof of the adjacent building.
The software SCIA Engineer was used for the non-linear structural
analysis of the reinforced concrete columns and the steel construction.
For the necessary global imperfection, the buckling shape (eigen shape)
of the construction was applied.
The columns were calculated in a non-linear fashion, taking into account
the cracked section, the non-linear behaviour of the concrete, and the
defined reinforcement according to DIN EN 1992-1-1.
