RFEM Data for the Bicycle Shelter
Model
New School Building Entrance
The school’s entrance wood structure is a half glued-laminated timber frame. Web plate connections were used between the posts and the rafters. In the upper section, the rafters are supported at one end on a concrete wall.
The timber posts include a pinned support to the concrete floor with members spanning between each post.
A longitudinal beam further supports the roof purlins.
New Bicycle Shelter
The bicycle shelter includes a steel frame with circular columns pinned at the ground level. The purlins and rafters are I-sections. The columns are rigidly connected to the rafters. An I-section plate is welded at the top of the column to secure connection with the purlins.
The frames are oriented in the longitudinal direction and the purlins are fixed on each side.
A vertical slat cladding at the roof level is attached to the top purlins and bottom plates.
Structural Design
BET Moselle Bois carried out the 3D frame preliminary design utilizing the structural analysis software RFEM. The required designs according to Eurocode 5 for the timber structure and Eurocode 3 for the steel structure were performed with the RF-TIMBER Pro and RF-STEEL EC3 add-on modules.
