163 Project information Short project description Nemetschek Engineering User Contest 2011 - Category 3: Design of Industrial Buildings and Plants Category 3: Design of Industrial Buildings and Plants 3 Owner Procter & Gamble Architect Chemoprag 3D Engineering Office Atelier P.H.A. s.r.o. Construction Period From January 2009 to March 2010 Location Cairo, Egypt Extension of Procter & Gamble Plant Cairo, Egypt This project relates to the extension of the P&G plant of Cairo, Egypt. The building is designed to produce industrial agglomerates. The dimensions of this structure are 36 m x 23 m and it is 3 storeys high. The main challenge of the project was the coordination of the technology and the seismic stress check according to the Eurocode adapted to the local Egyptian code. The static system of the building is formed by frames with concentric diagonal bracing in transverse and longitudinal direction. The static analysis was performed using a 3D model in Scia Engineer to optimize the weight of the load-bearing steel structure.
