Stadium 'Arena Lviv', Lviv, Ukraine
Stadium 'Arena Lviv', Lviv, Ukraine
The stadium was designed for 33 400 spectator seats to satisfy the demands of UEFA and FIFA on the quality of football matches during international tournaments and championships of the highest rank including the final game of EURO 2012 tournament.
The project envisaged elaboration of working documentation for the roof steel structures located above the grandstands. The roof system structures consist of spatial trusses made of circular steel tubes placed along the perimeter of the stadium bowl at different levels. The trusses were supposed to be joined with rows of girders in tangential direction. Trusses contain tie elements at the external side of the stadium bowl lean on the concrete slab. Average total height of the trusses with strings is about 28 meters.
The lateral dimensions of the roof 221,2х190,7 meters, internal size of the roof opening is 103x63 meters.
Material of the structures: steel S255 and S345.
Eventually project was changed because implementation of other concept (it was decision to use spatial structure MERO).
Stadium 'Arena Lviv', Lviv, Ukraine (changed)
Framework of the Biofuel pellets factory facility consists of steel frames joined with bracing tubes in a spatial system. During maintenance appeared troubles and knock-off because of disturbances with building framework (steel stands were bent and shifted because of extreme wind loadings). After inspection of the main building were detected next infringements: in zones where columns leaned on the concrete slab, flooring was covered with cracks, which indicated appearance of great moments of wind loadings and lack of vertical bracings; anchor bolts were produced without elastic washers or lock nuts; monorail in the 3-storey part was not fixed in horizontal direction. After recalculation of the spatial model with SCAD Office 11.5 and including all highlighted changes in existing configuration was performed detailed report where were indicated nonconformity to Building Standards and recommendations.

‘Sanduny’ bath houses, Neglinnaya st. 14, Bl. 4, Moscow, Russian Federation
Changing of the roof constructions were envisaged in the project of the bath houses ‘Sanduny’ and included calculations and design of the structures. Existing wooden rafters were replaced with steel beams. The difficulty of the project consisted in inability of changing structural schemata because bath houses became a monument of architecture since 1991. That was a reason why a ‘mixed’ distances and non-orthogonal position.
