Detailed design and individual research
The ‘Detailed design’ involves full design to Eurocodes of a sub-structure extracted from the global structural model. This includes a vertical member that is primarily in compression, a horizontal member primarily subjected to bending and a connection (beam to column or column to foundation). All designs should conform to current design codes and building regulations. The sub-structure can be from any part of the building but must be different for each student. As mentioned before, the ‘Research’ is open-ended. In contrast to the ‘Detailed design’ which is prescriptive and uses codified approaches, the research work needs to be based on recent innovations in steel and steel/composite. Results of this research must be implemented in your design.The ‘Detailed design’ section should include, but is not limited to: (i) an introduction justifying all details of the substructure with reference to the finite element model, (ii) design forces and deflections obtained from the model, (iii) full limit state calculations handwritten or typed in a text-editing programme, (iv) full drawings in CAD or by hand to scale, (v) a discussion that clarifies the main design choices and constraints as well as a conclusion that summarises the codified design.Horizontal element 3.1 Secondary beam spanning 15m and supporting CLT floor structure Vertical element 3.2 Part of the core structure which consists of a steel frame with CLT panels as bracing. However the detail design has to be based on codified approaches. Connection element 3.3 Connection between secondary beam (B2) and primary beam (B1) at mid-span of B1.
