162 Category 4: Special Projects 4 Sports Hall - Brasilia, Brazil SE Contact Mario Henrique Held Address Rua Barão de Jaceguai, 509, Sala 135 08710160 Mogi das Cruzes, Brazil Website www.maxfalcon.com.br Maxfalcon is a company specializing in engineering projects of all types, from residential, commercial, and industrial to public sector projects. Our team of engineers mix youth, experience, and is always searching for new and updated expertise, allowing us to work with the majority of specialties in the market. We are very committed to our clients and do believe that our realized projects are our best presentation. Projects we can deliver: foundations and structural projects, including reinforced concrete, pre-fabricated elements, masonry, steelwork, and earthwork, drainage, technical and structural reports. Owner Governo Do Distrito Federal Architect ARCHITECH Consultoria & Planejamento Ltda General Contractor Confidential Engineering Office Maxfalcon Projetos de Engenharia Ltda Construction Period 2015 - 2016 The project has a complex geometry – the steel part dimensions are 73.6 m in length, 43.7 m in width and 11.3 m in height which can generate multiple load combinations. The structure will consist of prefabricated pieces and bolted connections. SCIA Engineer was the best tool for its design. The graphical display of results in SCIA Engineer helped better understand the behaviour of the structure. The result-tabs are very intuitive and summarize all the stresses. We also used SCIA Engineer to design all steelwork elements. To save time we imported a CAD reference into SCIA Engineer and created the analysis model from it. Connection details were finalized in a CAD tool using the SCIA Engineer model. The design challenges of this project were the architectural limitations; the sports hall could not be higher than the neighbouring buildings. Also, the available space for columns was very limited and some restriction was also applied to the number of columns allowed in the facade. Regarding the roof, the architectural proposal did not allow for the use of conventional trusses as a very clean and light structure was required. Therefore, tubular 3D columns were adopted along with ties to balance the stresses in intermediate supports. It was also possible to use hot rolled beams to meet the height limitation. If a conventional structure was used, the height would be greater and many other restrictions could not be met. Company Maxfalcon Projetos de Engenharia Ltda
