Not just because of the ease of use, but also because the model appears on the screen in several view windows. No problems were encountered in 3D design: “Allplan enables highly intuitive work in 3D. The building is reinforced by steel pipe crosses each over six floors.įrom the very beginning, this complex structure was modeled by Inginerie Structurala with Allplan in 3D, using special templates from Scia Engineer designed for steel and concrete construction. The over-ground building is a combination of steel and reinforced concrete elements: all piles are concrete-filled steel pipes, while all girders are made of reinforced concrete. An 80-centimeter thick wall made of water-impermeable concrete, surrounding the entire subterranean part of the building, ensures the underground levels are dry.
The floor slab also rests on 216 foundation piles each measuring 150 centimeters in diameter, which are planted around 18 meters deep into the earth. The engineers took account of the unfavorable ground conditions by designing the entire subterranean area of the building as a stiff box. Planning was made more problematic by the difficult structural conditions: on the one hand because of the poor quality of the ground close to the river, but above all because of the risk of earthquakes, which had to be taken into consideration in the calculations. These are all particularly demanding tasks given the size of the building, with an effective area of 77,000 square meters over 3 levels below ground and 19 above. In this project Inginerie Structurala was responsible for structural design, structural calculation and seismic calculations. The civil engineers have also used this type of integrated project planning in Orchidea Tower, a high-rise building with a floor plan in the shape of a butterfly, which will be built in Bucharest on the bank of the Dambovita river. “ With BIM, the building client ultimately receives a building of particularly high quality, because at all times the best decision is made for every aspect ,” says Diana Zagaican, summarizing the advantages. All aspects of a building relating to design, function, structure and technology are also simulated for the model and harmonized.
The designers make full use of the possibilities of end-to-end, BIM-oriented planning: the building model in Allplan serves as a data pool from which the required project data is generated automatically at any time and for any discipline. Allplan‘s accuracy, flexibility and excellent user friendliness hugely facilitates project processing.” A choice that Diana Zagaican and her employees are more than satisfied with: “With its solutions, Nemetschek offers the best integration across all project phases and all aspects of planning and design.
For project planning, the engineers have been using Nemetschek software for the past five years. In these projects, the office, with its staff of 15, either designed the buildings, provided consulting services (including geotechnical aspects) or was involved as a surveyor.
Inginerie Structurala was founded 11 years ago and boasts an impressive repertoire: from single-family homes, office buildings and churches through to typical engineering structures such as tunnels or bridges. It‘s simply the most efficient way of working,” explains office owner Diana Zagaican. “ It is a matter of course for us to use the BIM building model as the basis for all project phases and disciplines. If a new building is constructed in Bucharest, planning must not only take account of the usual requirements relating to building form, functionality or costs resistance to earthquakes is an additional factor that designers need to bear in mind.īucharest engineering office Inginerie Structurala is also well equipped to meet this task: with Building Information Modeling (BIM) and the Allplan Engineering and Scia Engineer solutions from Nemetschek, the Romanian civil engineering company is able to realize an end-to-end planning process that integrates all aspects, including resistance to earthquakes. In Bucharest, a red dot is not a good sign: It indicates buildings that are particularly under threat from earthquakes. Lo studio Inginerie Structurala di Bucarest ha usato il metodo BIM - Building Information Modeling, così come il software Nemetschek software Allplan Engineering and Scia Engineer. Se è anche necessario rendere un edificio come questo a prova di terremoto, il compito è particolarmente complesso. Per gli ingegneri avere una visione d'insieme in un progetto delle dimensioni della Torre Orchidea a Bucarest, con 19 piani fuori terra e 3 sotto, lavorando con modelli 3D è praticamente un must.
