Design of a Concert Hall, Denmark

摘要

This paper describes the process of designing a concert complex: from the architectural visions of a flying concrete meteor to the static calculations that made it happen. Because of differential settlements from the non-uniform underground conditions, hydraulic jacks have been introduced so that upward and downward adjustments are possible for the concert hall. Furthermore, the whole building is covered by a complex two-system cable facade, where each cable system affects the other. Finally, dynamic investigations have been conducted for the huge balcony structures.
