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 - #2
5
Design Development Process
6
Final Design
7
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
8
Structural arrangement Double-height atrium ‘Seamless’ connection between buildings No obstruction of visitor flow Ship visible throughout
9
Structural arrangement Crow’s nest experience Standalone walkway
10
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
11
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
12
Key features – Ship Enclosure Primary framework – Asymmetrical 3D trusses Pinned at foundations Fixed connectionsPinned connections
13
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
14
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
15
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
16
Key Features – Crow’s nest Walkway Two access shafts 62m high 4 glass lifts, 2 stairwells Structure Props I-beams 3-D trusses
17
Key Features – Adjacent Structure Conventional arrangement Simple steel frame structure Standard beams & columns ComFlor 60 decking Lateral bracing Prevents torsion
18
Key features – Adjacent Building Load Paths
