The engineering office in.ge.na, a customer of Dlubal Software, was in charge of the testing work. The test engineers used RFEM to enter the 3D model, including loads, and to analyze the structure.
Structure
The construction object is a new building of a fourteen‑story hotel with a cellar. It was built as a solid construction consisting of reinforced concrete.
The inclined external walls in the east and west have a slope of 73.2° in relation to the building's horizontal.
The horizontal as well as the vertical loading is transferred by the external walls or the columns and wall surfaces of the central corridor. The external wall surfaces in the areas of the north and south facades have a thickness of 7 7⁄8 - 9 27⁄32 inches. The inclined walls in the west and east have the same thickness, depending on the loading.
The floor thickness in the uncovered zone of the underground parking is 13 25⁄32 inches, in the zone with superstructure it is 11 13⁄16 inches. The ceiling above the twelfth floor is 11 13⁄16 inches thick. All other intermediate floors were built as standard floor ceilings with a thickness of 9 27⁄32 inches.
The foundation below the covered area of the building was constructed using flat footings with thicknesses of 3.28 ft, 1.97 ft, and 0.98 ft. Zones without a superstructure were built up on strip and single foundations. As a result of the calculations, the lifting forces were determined in the western part of the building structure for the extraordinary action of earthquakes. To ensure stability in the described area, GEWI anchors were arranged.
