One Wilton Park

Executive design of the T10 glass shelter.

Category: Curtain walls
Services: Final detailed design
Period: December 2016 – May 2018
Client: Permasteelisa

The T10 canopy is part of the construction of the new One Wilton Park management complex in Dublin. The shelter is made up of 4 tubular columns 7m high with 4.5m center-to-center distance which support a box-section spine beam onto which the variable-height T-section cantilevers are inserted. Glazed panels in float glass are placed between the various “blades”. The canopy is also linked to the main structure by means of tubular struts that limit its vertical flexibility.

All structural details are designed to minimize the architectural impact: the joint cover plates of the blades are made with special pins and the bolted connection between the column and the spine beam is entirely concealed. The impluvium of the roof is identified by the spine beam that houses the drainage channel, while the downspout is hidden in the column protected by a stainless steel carter.

Design of the supporting structures and glazed claddings for the South, West and North facades of the building of the new Cruise Terminal 12N located in the harbour of Civitavecchia.

Design of the supporting structures and glazed claddings for the South, West and North facades of the building of the new Cruise Terminal 12N located in the harbour of Civitavecchia.

The west facade is of the continuous type with glass cladding and overlooks the seafront of the building for about 100 m of development and 8 m of height. It is characterized by large glass panels and a support structure in trussed beams, consisting of high aluminium mullions and tubular steel trusses inclined towards the outside.

Ville D’Eveque

Detailed design of steel structures of the façades Jardin et Rue.

Ville l’Evêque is an office building located in the heart of the Quartier Central des Affaires in Paris.
As part of the renovation of the building, we took care of the design of the supporting structures of the new building envelope which cover an area of about 1300 square meters.

The modular facades called «Jardin» and «Rue» have a supporting structure with aluminium mullions and transoms, with a typical module measuring 3168 mm x 3240 mm. The deformation behaviour for the edge beams of the building, on which the supporting structure of the facade will be placed, was also evaluated.

It is a newly built building for office use in Villejuif in the southern suburbs of Paris. We designed the supporting structures of the entire building envelope, which are the most characterizing element of the project from an architectural point of view, extending over a total area of about 13,000 square meters.

The double skin façades have an internal aluminium cell structure reinforced by steel elements that support a walkway and an external skin made up of micro-perforated sunscreen blades.

There are also transom and upright facades of various geometries in the patio, hall and in the strip that includes the ground floor and first floor.
Particularly interesting is the aerodynamic behaviour of the double skin system and in particular of the micro-perforated blades, inclined in plan, which has been studied through analytical formulations and studies in the wind tunnel.
