Constraints CEE Computer Integrated AEC (2002) STRUCTURAL SYSTEM #1 Solution 1 the whole building is based on 4 large columns at the corners an additional 4 columns in the core as well as concrete walls in the core (Elevators, Restrooms)
Gravital Structure CEE Computer Integrated AEC (2002) STRUCTURAL SYSTEM #1 In each slab there will be 4 large girders to collect gravity loads and transport them to the framework and the core columns Girders Additionally, secondary beams will be used to reduce the span of the slab Secondary Beams Gravity Structure
Framework CEE Computer Integrated AEC (2002) STRUCTURAL SYSTEM #1 Realizing the large span by a huge framework: to collect gravity loads and transport lateral loads to reduce deformation of the slabs Girders Secondary Beams Gravity Structure
Element sizesFramework CEE Computer Integrated AEC (2002) STRUCTURAL SYSTEM #1 Typical Element sizes: Girders Secondary Beams Slab: Composite floor deck, total height: 4 ¾“ (Span ~11ft) Secondary beams: 8“ (HEA 200) Core Columns: 20“ x 20“ Large Girders: 24 1/2“ (HEM 600) Small Girders: 14“ (HEB 340) Outside Columns: 40“ x 40“ (Assumption) Typical element sizes

Lateral Structure CEE Computer Integrated AEC (2002) STRUCTURAL SYSTEM #1 Stiffening the inside of the box by EBF‘s (eccentric braced frames): Advantage – in case of an earthquake, EBF‘s can absorb some of energy Lateral Resisting Structure Note – detailed calculations will need to be completed to determine the feasibility of this solution (due to massive framework)

LateralLoadPath_Top CEE Computer Integrated AEC (2002) STRUCTURAL SYSTEM #1 Symmetrical plan: no additional moments occur Lateral Load Paths
Foundation Columns CEE Computer Integrated AEC (2002) STRUCTURAL SYSTEM #1 Foundation of the columns is critical because of seismic issues: the outside columns must be able to rock -> base isolation system the core columns are supposed to be thinner and more ductile, allowing for deformation in case of an earthquake these two columns are connected to the wall of the auditorium Foundation
FoundationBasement CEE Computer Integrated AEC (2002) STRUCTURAL SYSTEM #1 Foundation of the basement: will be a ground plate in the core, a strengthening of the ground plate becomes necessary (columns) Foundation
A2_E_SOLUTION2 CEE Computer Integrated AEC (2002) STRUCTURAL SYSTEM #2 Solution 2 additional columns are used to reduce the span the building becomes more economical

OutsideElements CEE Computer Integrated AEC (2002) STRUCTURAL SYSTEM #2 Stiffening also the outside of the box by EBF‘s: with this structural solution there are shorter spans of about 30 ft. EBF‘s can absorb energy in case of an earthquake Columns are not stressed with the entire earthquake energy Lateral Resisting Structure

Lessons Learned CEE Computer Integrated AEC (2002) LESSONS LEARNED New media needs further development to work properly every time We encountered problems, especially in using Netmeeting The phone line we have as backup is used every time in present meetings The data archival is very important but also complicated Necessity of keeping track of the different versions of a document Developing a tool to easily gather and manage data
Further Collaboration CEE Computer Integrated AEC (2002) FURTHER COLLABORATION The discussion forum should be used more often We used it at the beginning of the project quite often but recently we „fell back“ to s We should announce team-meetings (with all the members) once a week The notification mechanism should be improved Discussing with everybody (other disciplines) brings an improved learning experience Importance of knowing if an , attachment arrived and was useful
