Single story building design

Single storey shell structure This section explores the possibility of self-support shell structure covering an area of 40 by 40 metres. The shell is made of 250mm reinforced concrete Progress 1 - Free form generation

Progress 2 - Live physics simulation

5.45 m

Progress 3 - Finite element analysis

Max.Disp: 11.2 cm Mass weight: 1142 ton

11.7 m

0.5 cm

Sweep NURBS curves to create a free form surface to get orthogonal grids on the plan view.

Evaluate the height variation of the shell and analyse the water flow on the shell surface.

Select one point from each circle and project them to the zero level height.

Fix the perimeter and anchor point in red. Simulate soap film generation process in Kangaroo to create mean zero curvature mesh. (Livesoap component applied)

5.0 cm

Gravity and 2kN/m load are applied on the 250mm thick reinforced concrete shell. Anchor points are marked in grey circles. 2
