110 Category 3: Industrial Buildings and Plants 3 Owner Santens Metaalwaren Architect Hugo Koch General Contractor Stadsbader Engineering Office Stadsbader Construction Period 05/2017 - 10/2017 The Santens Metaalwaren building combines a hall of 6800 m² and 3 office floors which represent about 2000 m² in total. The construction will be built next to the E40 highway. Its sloped roof with vegetation protruded by a circular entrance tower with 5 floor levels will dominate the building. The sloped roof is continued over a porch roof with a 20 m cantilever ending in a tip. SCIA Engineer is used for 3D modelling of the complete building, using 1D members for concrete columns and girders and 2D shell elements for the circular tower building. The big challenge of this project is the steel structure of the cantilevered porch roof and its anchorage on the circular tower building.
