Group 11

Introduction Tasked to provide a “ship enclosure and adjacent building comprising one structure […] with the adjacent building running along one side of the ship”

Conceptual Design - #1

Design Development Process

Final Design

Final design - Justification Reasons for selection: Form  Strong maritime influence Function  Exhibition space provided in conventional structure  Efficient use of space  Member spacing procures a largely transparent design

Structural arrangement Double-height atrium ‘Seamless’ connection between buildings No obstruction of visitor flow Ship visible throughout

Structural arrangement Crow’s nest experience Standalone walkway

Consideration of structure Limited interaction of constituent structures… …may design the three structures independently:  1. Ship enclosure  2. Adjacent building  3. Standalone walkway 1 2 3

Key features – Ship Enclosure Cladding support system – 2D truss network  Conventional bracing arrangement  Doubly-pinned at each end  Inclination parallel to connected 3D trusses  Connecting to outer chords

Key features – Ship Enclosure Primary framework – Asymmetrical 3D trusses  Pinned at foundations Fixed connectionsPinned connections

Key features – Ship Enclosure Primary framework – Asymmetrical 3D trusses  Prefabricated triangular space frame  Repeated Howe truss  KT gap & T joints  3D arrangement provides resistance in all load scenarios

Key features – Ship Enclosure Lateral restraint – Longitudinal wind loading  Symmetrical ranks of cross-bracing bays  Act to transfer wind loads on vertical facings into interior trusses

Key features – Ship Enclosure Lateral restraint – Transverse wind loading  Tie anchorage in the form of cable restraint  Form an architectural showpiece  Act to greatly limit lateral deflections  Assessed in a sway sensitivity analysis

Key Features – Crow’s nest Walkway Two access shafts 62m high 4 glass lifts, 2 stairwells Structure Props I-beams 3-D trusses

Key Features – Adjacent Structure Conventional arrangement Simple steel frame structure Standard beams & columns ComFlor 60 decking Lateral bracing Prevents torsion

Key features – Adjacent Building Load Paths
