DRAFTING

INSTALLATION

ENGINEERING

Modern day Façade systems are becoming increasingly complex. Initially the cladding system was required to be a passive skin, used solely to protect against the elements. Now the cladding

envelope is increasingly required to not only protect but to actually harness the very elements they used

 to repel.

     Elevation provides multi-discipline Engineering, Design and Detail Drafting along with Specialist Installation Services to the construction industry.

 

 In addition to our Dubai office we have fully operational offices in Beirut-Lebanon from which we specialize in servicing steel, glass and aluminum fabricators in the production of shop and fabrication drawings on

Middle East projects.

Both offices are fully integrated using the INTERNET and facilities.

 

 

ELEVATION FACADES ENGINEERING AND CLADDING WORKS

Our company offers CAD DRAFTING in both  MICRO STATION or AUTOCAD.

Our engineering teams have established a rapport with clients to extent where they have found it more economical to utilize our staff and facilities then to have their own full time personnel.

CONCEPT

 · Our original concept design was based on full height glass fins and glass beams supported off of the RC portal frames

 

 · The box was clad in glass panels up to 4.0m x 2.3m

 

 · The clients design team preferred a freestanding glass box with glass portal frames dissociated from the portal frames

 

 · The approved concept comprised 13.3m high spliced fins, 7.5m long spliced beams, roof panels either 4m x 2.5m or 2m x 2.5m and façade panels up to 4m x 3.19m whereby joints in the façade matched the jointing in the stone cladding to portal frames.

 

 · Three automatic sliding doors 1.7m wide x 2.9m high with glass canopies up to 1.5m beyond the façade over the entrance doors

 

 · A proposal was made to the client to demolish the existing concrete portal frames

 

 · The RC portal frames are clad in stone with the integrated ventilation and services

 

DESIGN CRITERIA

 · Principal loading criteria included wind, seismic, temperature and impact

 

 · Seismic criteria UBC 2A in accordance with Dubai Municipality Regulations (decree 66)

 

 · 1997 UBC zone 2A equivalent to 2000 IBC seismic design category C - S a = 4.8 m/s 2 (0.48g) for IBC - cf EC8 Sa =0.53g

 

 · Load combinations

 

 · Consideration of vertical and lateral main building movement (storey drift) of the existing RC suspended floor slab at lower P2 and upper P5 level over the short and long term - as a result varied the spring stiffness of the supports in Global model

 

 · Energy consumption in accordance with Dubai Municipality Regulations (decree 66) for the design and air conditioning of the

enclosure considered to conform to a showroom

 

 

FABRICATION/CONSTRUCTION

 · All stainless steel fitting manufactured locally in Dubai

 

 · Tight fabrication tolerances for stainless steel fittings

 

 · A third party check by Bureau Veritas ensured 100% fabricated items conformed to the design specification

 

 · Installation was due to commence September 2012.

 

 · Rosewood Dubai opening 2014

 

FAILSAFE LAMINATED GLASS

· All glass elements were designed with redundancy based on a failsafe condition

 

 · A failsafe condition is achieved through redundancy within the individual laminated glass sheets.

 

 · Evaluation of the failsafe condition is made where one laminate is assumed to have failed with full live loading in accordance with Code requirements

 

 · Each element has been checked individually for this condition

 

 · The façade and roof panels are triple laminated and the glass fins and beams are 5 No. ply laminate

 

 · In this analysis the properties of PVB and SGP laminates for short/long term and temperatures of 25°C and 50°C were included in the models and their effect on stresses and deflections were taken into account.
