SCIA User Contest 2017

26 Category 1: Buildings 1 Engineering Office Brand & Gleinser GmbH Construction Period 10/2016 - 11/2017 This extension to car park built in 2004-2005 will provide 260 additional spots, for an overall estimated construction budget of €7 million. The new construction consists of a 4-storey composite floor with lattice girder slabs and cast in place concrete columns. The roof is made of steel with various coverings. The main roof is covered by metal decks, the construction in the middle by transparent PV-modules. The principal challenge in the 3D design consisted of avoiding to introduce unnecessary constraints in the structure and of performing a correct design of the foundation beams. Thanks to the versatile possibilities of SCIA Engineer, we could finally virtually eliminate all artificial and undesired constraints, without neglecting the actually appearing constraints. The foundation beams are submitted to significant torsion due to the eccentric position of the walls. Thanks to the precise definition of reinforcement and detailed capacity checks, even this special challenge could be tackled with confidence.
