Object: Series of small architectural forms for EXPO2017 in Astana
Project designers: S. Narynov, V. Luhtanov
Authors: architect – S. Narynov, design model – V. Luhtanov
Structural decisions: Structure consists of bars that form cellular structure like a “Mobius strip”.
Bar’s diameters are 8, 10 and 12mm. Dimensions: 8m x 6.5m; material: stainless steel.
Foundation is a plate with a dimensions of 4 х 4 х 1m.
The following analysis has been performed:
- static analysis:
• considering spatial behavior of the structures;
• thermal analysis, wind action, dead weight and glaze ice.
- proportioning and checking of bar elements cross sections.
