The team is specialised in: • Telecom and transmission line tower sub and super-structure • Building structure assessment • Low and tall buildings Owner SCARLET Architect ACYC sarl Branch Architects General Contractor AL-MANAH Engineering Office CAMSECT Construction Period 08/2017 - 08/2021 The building is located in District 3, Sihanouk Ville, Cambodia. The building has a complex functionality: 2 restaurants, offices, apartments and duplex, swimming pool & spa and a fitness centre. The building has 2 basements, ground floor, 32 stories, an extra roof level and a machine level. A smart parking system is positioned above the ground floor restaurant, occupying 3 levels. SCIA Engineer provided the tools to do a full 3D model to proper evaluate the general structure behaviour. The structure was not regular and many of the structural elements disappeared on top levels so all structural elements need to be dimensioned and checked. The “Concrete 15” module was used to design and check all linear elements and the Concrete module was used to design the slab reinforcement. The challenge was to do a mesh system discreet enough to provide a valid mesh solution but with rather big finite elements where no stress concentrators could occur to be able to calculate the model in a reasonable amount of time. The project had 4,238 nodes, 1,978 beams and 1,134 slabs which meant solving 2,248,668 equations. Scarlet Building - Sihanoukville, Cambodia
