Schatz Engineering, a customer of Dlubal Software, was responsible for the structural and design engineering of the building complex. RSTAB was used for structural design, and Tekla Structures for the design engineering.
Structure
The three structurally identical car dealerships have the external dimensions (L x W x H) of about 121 ft x 92 ft x 43 ft.
The supporting structure consists of precast columns with molded foundations. Precast concrete supports are placed on column corbels. The walls were designed as concrete hollow walls. The floors and ceilings are made of precast concrete slabs. The roof structure and the facade substructure were designed as a steel structure.
BIM Planning with RSTAB and Tekla Structures
The project planning was carried out in Tekla Structures. The Tekla model was transferred to RSTAB using the direct interface. After performing the structural analysis, beam dimensions were updated in the Tekla model.
Tekla Structures was also used to create formwork and reinforcement drawings for the precast concrete elements, garage design, schemes, and NC data for the steel structure, among other things.
