The total building area is 9000m2, and was built using Metek’s light steel framing supported on a steel framed podium at first floor. The curved façade was made by faceting the light steel wall panels by 4.50° at the window positions. The floors had a maximum span of 5.3m and were formed using a 170 mm deep composite slab that was supported by the load-bearing cross-walls. Slim floor beams using 200 mm deep steel H sections provided larger open areas and spanned over the corridors. A 50 mm deep screed was placed on the slab for the embedded services. The chosen cladding system consisted of large insulated panels that were fixed to the light steel framework. The duo-pitch roof was constructed with an internal valley, and a plant room was located on the roof. Metek delivered the decking, reinforced slim floor beams and steel columns and pre-cast concrete stairs as part of their light steel package. Metek’s construction period for the complex building form was from May to September 2015, and the project will be completed in mid-2016. Gallery © 2016 Metek Plc. · Privacy · Terms
