In collaboration with the architect, we designed a steel support structure for the whole workshop. The building has a total area of 4300 m² and includes a part with a raised roof at a height of 12 m to allow for the mounting of plastic tanks of large dimensions. The structure consists of three contiguous sections of 24 m. A 3.2 ton crane extends over two of them. There is a second upper crane in the tower section for handling large workpieces. The metal structure was calculated using the SCIA Engineer program in accordance with Eurocode 3. Specific charges for the use of solar panels had to be taken into account.
