Engineering bvba is an engineering office near Brussels specialising in steel and concrete structures and foundations. The study presented contains a detailed engineering of connections and general stability. I.d.d. Engineering is specialising in industrial plants and civil structures such as bridges. The company was established in 2010 and has designed many structures all over the world, such as in Africa, Asia, Australia and the Middle East. Owner SOCF Architect Archipl Architecten General Contractor Algemene Bouwonderneming Wyckaert Engineering Office I.d.d. Engineering Construction Period 10/2016 - 04/2017 The building is a hall used by SOCF for testing steel products on their material properties. It is situated in the technology park in Zwijnaarde, near Ghent in Belgium. The building is 58 x 30 m large and contains multiple cranes. The floors feature the innovative Cofraplus steel-concrete beam concept. SCIA Engineer was used for steel checks according to the Eurocode, incl. the Belgian National Annex. Furthermore, the non-linear calculation method with elements acting in tension only was used. The main challenges were the composite steel-concrete structure and fire protection of the hall. The steel structure is optimised and meets the contractor’s requirements for deformation and stability. The client received all of the connection details and beam dimensions from which the steel contractor can make shop drawings. A useful tool is the 3D-CAD export function in SCIA Engineer, thanks to which we could easily communicate with other parties. Testing Hall - Zwijnaarde, Belgium
