In May 2022, the new Sky Bridge footbridge opened in the Dolní Morava area (Czech Republic); it is the longest footbridge in the world, with a length of 2,365.49 ft. The design and construction of the footbridge were carried out by TAROS NOVA a.s., and the structural analysis was performed in RFEM 5.
For this purpose, software tools from the company bimm GmbH were used, by which architects, structural engineers, and building engineers could work together efficiently on a 3D model. RFEM and the Autodesk programs Revit Architecture and Revit Structure, to which Dlubal has a direct interface, served as the basic software for this project.
Isenmann Ingenieure from Haslach, a customer of Dlubal Software, was in charge of the structural planning. The calculation and design of the access core and the pile foundation made of reinforced concrete were performed in RFEM.
The Kozłowski-Projekt Engineering Office participated in designing a factory which produces wood‑based, high-endurance laminate panels. The project by MLT OOO was constructed in Torzhok, Russia, making it Europe’s largest manufacturer of panels of this type.
An extraordinary project was born when the architectural office of bergmeister-wolf designed a new workshop for wood carving art in Val Gardena, South Tyrol.
As the triangulated facade could be used only partially for load application, the building represented a great challenge for the responsible timber construction engineer. But the Italian Dlubal Software customer Schrentewein & Partner mastered the task by primarily using the building's inside parts for transferring loads.
An innovative research project has been carried out on the company premises of STM Montage GmbH in Lunzenau, Germany: A wind power plant with a lattice tower, where the uppermost segment consists of fiber-reinforced molded timber pipes.
Wildlife crossing AM2 was built with a construction method for concrete shell structures called Pneumatic Forming of Hardened Concrete (PFHC). This new method was developed by TU Wien in the context of the research project titled "Double Curved Shell Structures."
In October 2010, the Waterside Theatre opened its doors in Aylesbury, near London. In its floor plan and roof structure, the town's new emblem mirrors the shape of the Chiltern Hills in Southeast England.
The bar-shaped timber columns in the inside and outside areas refer to the depths of the forest. The facade's construction has an external supporting structure, which means that the building's envelope is actually built inside (reversed facade); it has a peanut-shaped floor plan with six different radii of curvature.
Allianz Arena is a soccer stadium in Munich, Germany, which hosted the opening match of the 2006 FIFA World Cup. The stadium became a new landmark of the city. The translucent exterior facade of the stadium shines light in various colors and thus makes the whole arena building very special.
The new VoltAir office building in Berlin includes a 394 ft x 213 ft area and a height close to 98 ft. The building envelope consists of multiple box elements which form the interior and exterior corners.
VisLab, a start-up at the University of Parma, is a global leader in autonomous driving system development for various vehicle types. The American company Ambarella became aware of VisLab’s mission in a rapidly developing area characterized by strong competition, and decided to strategically acquire the company. As a result, a new location for headquarters to accommodate this research was required. Ambarella preferred the research center to remain on the University of Parma campus in Italy.
The new visitors' center is located in Yangxin, in the Chinese province of Shandong.
At Metalúrgica Vera SRL, a metalworking company in Paraguay, metal structures are manufactured and assembled for various projects. One such project is the Velodrome, a sports facility prepared for cycling competitions.
The engineering office Études Techniques Lyonnaises was commissioned with the structural design of the foundations for a new unloading area of an industrial site in the department of Isère, France.
The new unloading area consists of a steel structure built on a foundation plate. The total area is divided into two parts: a traffic and unloading area for rail vehicles, and an area with a pit and a traffic zone for lift trucks.
Designed to store nearly 2 million library volumes and works of art, the University of Arkansas Library Annex in Fayetteville was built with cross-laminated timber (CLT) roofs, walls, and floors, and glulam beams, columns, and moment frames.
The tunnel formwork was calculated according to the second-order analysis, considering the motion and concreting situation.
The tripper car bridge is a part of the conveyor belt structure realized in Uzbekistan.
The engineering office of Jürgen Ehlenz, a customer of Dlubal Software, was responsible for the structural analysis and detailed design of the conveyor bridge and other parts of the conveyor belt system.
In Passau's Haidenhof district, a new sports hall extends to the existing school building. A 196.8-foot-long indoor athletics competition facility with four tracks - the "sprint tunnel" - connects the hall and the existing building.
The path leading through forest treetops has a total length of 4,265 ft and is the longest treetop walk worldwide. It was built in 2009 in the Bavarian Forest National Park in Germany. The walk's principal tourist magnet is the walkable tree tower with a height of 144.3 ft. It consists of a spiral structure with a length of 1,706 ft, directly connected to the 2,559-foot-long treetop walk.
At the end of 2013, the "Vechthoeve" was transported over a distance of 1,640 ft. The wooden house, referred to as the "Pippi Longstocking" house, is situated close to Amsterdam, the capital of the Netherlands. The villa had to be relocated because of plans to widen the A1 highway.
In Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, a 2,645.5-ton mosque was moved in its entirety over a distance of 120 m (394 ft). This was the first time in Saudi Arabia that an entire building was to be moved to a different location.
The bird-watching tower in the Reuss River delta is an exceptional lookout construction in the Urner Alps. Its striking primary framework consists of 48 log timber columns standing in an inclined position. From four viewing platforms, people seeking relaxation enjoy the wonderful view over the river delta, and ornithologists can watch nesting birds.
Following remodeling, the TD Place Stadium in Canada’s capital, Ottawa, can hold up to 24,000 visitors. The sports complex is located at Lansdowne Park and is primarily used for Canadian football and soccer. The architectural highlight of the stadium is the curvilinear timber veil.
Madergia, a Spanish Dlubal Software customer, presents this beautiful project designed by ZÜR Studio, for which engineers were responsible with regard to the structural analysis, manufacturing, supply, and installation of the timber structure. It is a pergola roof with folded plates, placed in an open public space in the town of Anoeta.
In 2018, Alì Supermercati decided to extend its existing regional commercial network with a new shopping mall located in Via Noalese, Treviso, Italy. The project, designed by Studio Signorotto Architettura of Treviso, includes a glued-laminated timber roof, which integrates with the area’s existing wood structures, characterized by a perfect aesthetic design and quality building material.
SIDO Madera, a Spanish Dlubal customer, has designed a 21-meter-long (69 ft) bicycle-pedestrian bridge located in Orihuela, Alicante, Spain. It is made of GL24H pine timber, treated by autoclave with copper salts. In addition, hot-dip galvanized S235 steel fasteners were used.
