This structure is designed as facade scaffolding, but can also serve as a weather protection roof as well as a multi-platform structure. The weather protection roof was modeled independently while the roof loads were applied to the scaffolding structure. The scaffolding is anchored to the masonry at numerous locations. This connection further transfers the wind loads to the building.
To finalize this project, multiple RFEM features were utilized, such as nonlinear member end hinges and nodal supports. Furthermore, the RF-STEEL EC3 and RF-ALUMINUM add-on modules were utilized to design the structure according to EC 3 and EC 9. The designs were carried out according to the National Annex of Sweden.
