South View Perspective

Nowadays with the technological developments and an increase in engineering details through the use of computers, designing and implementing free glass forms has been made possible. Also, engineering skills have improved structural elements and therefore resulted in the high transparency of glass shells. In this project, a parametric form with standard details in the glass shells’ world has been used so in addition to the intended transparency and beauty, complex and costly details be avoided and the execution of the projects be further facilitated. The equivalent of these details has been used in projects such as MyZeil in Frankfurt and Westfield in London.

In the first step, the structure of this form is mixed with the architectural form and by this method, the cost of the project is decreased and its transparency is increased.

In the next step, the facade is completely caulked and insulated by Raico standard system which is the best system among the glass facade systems.

Finally, the use of three-ply glass technology, and if needed digital print which in addition to visual transparency gives the possibility of controlling factors such as boldness, glow intensity, installation systems, etc. Will result in a reduction in installation costs.

Structure Component

The suggested structure is a metal frame. Considering the importance of parking spaces and the stories and the geometrical form of the plan, the size of steel pillars will be less than concrete pillars. Considering the choice of a retaining wall with an adequate girth all around the structure until level zero, the possibility of raising the base level and earthquake exists. Therefore, the building height affected by earthquake in base level is around 54 meters for which single systems (medium or special moment-resisting frame) or double systems (medium or special moment-resisting frame in addition to cross brace or concrete shear wall) can be used (there is enough space for cross brace or steel or concrete shear wall in the plan). Using ST52 steel for the pillars and ST37 for beams will result in more suitable sizes. In order to control tall consoles, vertical truss must be used. In order to connect them to independent top structures, Truss Mega can be used.

By using a completely rigid roof on the base level, various tuned mass dampers can be used in order to reduce the lateral forces of the earthquake and prevent its transmission to the upper structure.

The technical mission of OIEC company includes various complex and specialized technical and engineering activities for the discovery, mining, and utilizing the land and water in relation to the oil industry. This technical essence is represented in the structures, buildings, and the geometry of the melting core. Using parametric structures in forming the shell of the melting core will manifest the high technology and boast the executional capacity and technical power of the company.
