107 ‘Scheepsmaker’ tower The ‘Scheepsmakertoren’is a block of flats in the centre of Rotterdam. In this building, a total of 24 storeys are reserved for private houses. The most remarkable thing about this building is the high slenderness of the structure. With a height of 88m, the foundation of the building is about 20 x 20m². Until the 26th storey (74,5 m) the building is build up out of concrete, the roof construction is made of steel. The building is made out of ‘flaps’, which visually end the building and which improve the wind impact by the pool (on storey 26). The building has a foundation of vibro combination piles of ø 508/620. The lift shaft has a foundation of steel casing, which are included in the sheet pile wall. The concrete construction with the real loads has been introduced in a 3D model in the computer. From this model (finite element module of ESAPrima Win 3.50) follow the pile reactions, the deformations and the section forces in the concrete construction. Short Description
