The structure consists of one-way concrete slabs supported by reinforced concrete columns and beams. Certain very high beams also serve as architectural elements. Likewise, several structural steel columns have been arranged that are aesthetically integrated with the exterior glass enclosures.
The largest reinforced concrete beam has a span of 18.6 m (61.02 ft), and supports the slab of a terrace, creating a porch facing the pool. This beam has a height of 155 cm (61.02 in) and a width of 45 cm (17.72 in). The masonry is structurally designed and the entire structure is founded on a nonlinear elastic support in a seismic zone. The model was designed with a dynamic analysis taking into account nonlinear behavior.
For the reinforced concrete design, RFEM in connection with the RF-CONCRETE add-on module was used. The design was carried out according to the American standard ACI. After the calculation, the CAD program Revit was used for further planning.
