To create parking spaces for about 400 vehicles over five levels, the client specified the following criteria: economical solution as regards its architecture and environmental sustainability, optimized layout of parking surfaces and execution speed. The solution was a customized multi-storey car park made of steel. The load-bearing construction consists of columns and secondary beams of 16 m free span, facilitating easy parking and opening of car doors. This car park will remain open and naturally ventilated, bringing an ecological and economical benefit. With their large eye-like openings, the cellular beams “Angelina” by Arcelor Mittal blend well into a contemporary and bright design. The floor system used is the additive floor Cofraplus 220, which can be quickly assembled and reinforced with concrete for composite action. The facades have timber cladding that acts as sun protection and gives the building a natural look that blends well into its environment. The stability is provided by vertical wind bracings with angles and the horizontal diaphragm action of the concrete slabs. The primary structure was designed with SCIA Engineer; the Angelina beams were calculated with their corresponding software.
