ASK Romein proposed using coated steel construction to meet the strict fire requirements. The building consists of a large storage hall and multiple compartments for production, water treatment and machine rooms, each separated by fireproof walls. The outside facade is built up with horizontal sandwich panels. The office space, with a cantilever span of 5 m, is suspended above the loading bay. Thanks to SCIA Engineer, the entire construction could be modelled, both in 2D and 3D. The introduction of loads and generation of load combinations is done in an efficient way. The specific problem of the cantilever in the facade was solved with rigid lattice columns. The software provided an easy insight into the effects of internal forces and stresses. In this project it was of high importance to accurately calculate the deflections and deformations. SCIA Engineer has proven to be a powerful tool for the successful completion of the project.
