It deals with design tasks, preparation and implementation of investment projects, engineering activities and is an expert in the field of construction and real estate investments. Participation in opinions on the condition and measures taken on load-bearing structures in industrial, high-rise apartment buildings, apartment building regeneration, opinions on the impact of emergency situations - like fires and flooding - on load-bearing structures, building passports during reconstruction etc. Owner Atelier P.H.A.

Construction Period 10/2016 - 12/2017 Building geometry and structural system: The foundations combine bored piles 10 m deep embedded into the bedrock and a foundation slab. The main bearing structure contains reinforced concrete columns and walls and cantilever balconies. The border walls and elevator walls were designed to provide adequate rigidity to the building. The floor slab was designed as a reinforced concrete slab, locally supported by columns. The part of the underground structure does not correspond to the rest of the upper structure. Therefore, very heavy beams and girders supporting the upper columns are designed. Assessing the real behaviour of the load bearing structure including its response to variable soil properties requires several successive calculations with different modifications of the input data. Such a solution is possible by using the “Soil-in” module for the analysis of the interaction between the upper structure and subsoil. The structural model is made using BIM with 3D reinforcement design in Allplan and architecture in Revit. SCIA Engineer allowed the preparation of several alternatives of the structure. There were several designs in the process of the work according to client’s and architect’s demands. SCIA Engineer allowed us to design the cantilever building.
