Presentation for the Structural Design of Ship Cover By Design Group 7on Friday, 13thDecember, 2013
Adopted Ship Cover Reasons the Ship Cover was adopted include: • It complied with the client’s brief • It has the required dimension that will enclose the ship • It is stable and able to transfer both self and imposed load to the foundation
The Ship Cover Reasons the Ship Cover was adopted include: • It is cover is generally in compression
Alternative Scheme Reasons this alternative scheme was not used • Laterally unstable • No adequate means of transferring load to the foundation • Would be difficult to prevent deflections in 100m+ member • Lots of wasted space on top floor
Alternative Scheme This alternative scheme was not used because: • It was not stable • Complicated to build • Too simple/unefficient
Artistic work Structural steel ship cover built around the artistic ship Artistic ship used to model the ship cover Section of the artistic ship
Compliance with the Brief Ship model used in modelling the ship cover Ship cover elevation from the brief Erection of stanchions with horizontal Ship section from the brief Section of ship model depicting the section of the ship from the brief
Structural Arrangement Suraj Stay cables used to provide stability Semi-elliptical arcs transferring load from peak to the supporting Stanchions Bracing of the lift lobby provides prevents sway. Auditorium housing the lift lobby that leads to the crow’s nest
Stability Suraj Stay cables round the structure provides stability against sway Bracing at the edges of the ship cover, Auditorium and the Lift area provides stability
Method of Construction Suraj Erection of stanchions with horizontal rafters and stay cable for stability Erection of the elliptical arc members and braces Continuation of the arc and more stay cable as the height of the structure increases Completion of the ship cover, erection of the Auditorium and Lift Lobby
