CHALLENGES FACED
This project has a Span of 40 Mtrs, clear, resting on RCC Column of Height 6 Mtrs. The Project was an engineering challenge and installing the smooth curved structure was achieved by using an advanced Laser Cutting Process. The challenge was that the structure had to be installed on 6 Mtrs., RC Column on one end and 6 Mtrs, RC Columns plus 5.5 Mtrs., Steel Column at the opposite end. Suitable bracings were provided to counteract the Thrust on RC Columns. Well experienced Ironworkers Team who had experience in installing Steel Bridges were used for the Construction. Four similar buildings each of 6000 Sq.Mtrs ( Total 24000 Sr.Mtrs ) was erected.
