Office building in Mexico City

John Hopkins University – United States

A special foundation, dampers, and composite columns were adopted to design a tall building in a zone of high seismicity, addressing the new requirements following the 1985 earthquake, with height, versatility, and structural integrity.

Office building in SÃO PAULO

Engineer appointed by Gerdau – Brazil

The composite solution was chosen considering not only the optimized best technical solution (building height, gravitational/lateral forces applied, lateral resistance system adopted), but also the total cost, erection time-consuming and time to get the raw material from providers as well.

Office building in Tianjin

Tongji University – China

The reinforced concrete core -mega braced frame tube system is used, which the mega braced frame tube consists of 4 hexagonal columns at edges of the building, 9 belt trussed, and mega bracings.

Research lab and admin building in Milan

Politecnica ingegneria e architettura – Italy

The building serves as the new research lab for the molecular research of the Ospedale Maggiore Policlinico Mangiagalli in Milan, one of the main hospitals in Milan.

Assessment and quantification of the environmental impacts arising from different steel-concrete composite floor systems

Iuav University of Venice – Italy

The research was aimed at understanding the environmental implications of different composite floor systems, including a pre-fabricated dry-bound solution that promotes the possibility to disassemble, sort and reuse the various components at the end of the building life.

Complex building in Guangzhou (CTF Center Building)

Tongji University – China

Main structural members like shear walls, columns, and floors adopted composite components to increase their bearing capacity.

Impact of different concrete classes on the lateral resistance and failure mode of columns made with concrete-encased steel profiles

Iuav University of Venice – Italy

The purpose of the research is to understand how different concrete classes impact on the lateral resistance and failure mode of columns made with concrete-encased steel profiles.

Office building in Paris la Defense

Khephren Ingénierie – France

The project consists in the deep renovation of a pre-existent office building originally built in 1986.

Complex building in Singapore (Marina One)

National University of Singapore – Singapore

The composite structural steel framing with composite metal decking used for typical floors of the Office Towers was driven by construction programme and to achieve superior head-room requirements.
