4 1 Structural Design, Buildings

5 Structural Design, Buildings 1.1 Structural Design Creative, innovative, sustainable and practical solutions for building designs. That is what we provide. Working closely with our Clients, architects and building partners, we strive to ensure that the very best projects are delivered on time and within budget, while enhancing society with a brighter, more sustainable future. The advisory group Structural Design is part of the Business Line Buildings and has approximately 75 staff members located in three countries: the Netherlands, India and United Arab Emirates (UAE). 1.2 Added Value As environmental issues continue to change with increasing speed, the requirements which buildings must meet in terms of sustainability and costeffectiveness become ever more demanding. Our focus is in creating structural designs using innovative technologies to deliver built environments that best suit our clients needs, with the emphasis on buildability, sustainability, flexibility and safety. We ensure that the best solution can be built at minimum expense in terms of total cost of ownership, but can also be exciting, refreshing and beautiful. Our experts are active in identifying new trends, emerging challenges and technical advancements which we develop into promising opportunities. By using our advanced technical skills and business networking, we are able to convert opportunities into innovative solutions which offer value within society. 1.3 Virtual Design and Construction (VDC) & Building Information Modelling (BIM) Building Information Models (BIM) are increasingly being used by our experts to develop our projects. Virtual Design & Construction (VDC) is an effective step forward in creating efficient building designs. The VDC approach which has been developed in cooperation with Stanford University and the University of Delft, focuses on product, process and organisation, before the actual detailed design is carried out. Royal HaskoningDHV uses integrated rooms (I Rooms), in which we stimulate the integrated approach using virtual models to create the most efficient design. This approach has advantages such as time optimisation, cost effectiveness and risk reduction, without affecting the quality of the finished product. It leads to a smooth integration process with all stakeholders and disciplines within the design team. Structural Design HaskoningDHV Nederland B.V. 4

6 2 Specialties, Structural Design Advisory group

7 Specialties of our Structural Design Advisory Group 2.1 Tall / High Rise Buildings Tall buildings are no longer exceptions; they are gradually becoming the preferred modality of a vertical city. In the Netherlands the opportunities for high rise construction are extremely limited due to small available footprints and unfavourable ground conditions, often resulting in challenging slender designs. Royal HaskoningDHV have been responsible for the design of approximately 50% of all tall buildings in the country and as as such, we are well adapt to overcoming all challenges that come with high rise design and construction. Economic structural designs Tall buildings have unique challenges. Iconic architecture, mixed programmes (residential, office, hotel, retail and parking) are gradually finding new ways into vertical cities. As a result, high rise construction is fast becoming the main form of urban design to overcome the ever increasing problem of available land. We believe that sustainability, efficiency as well as innovative technologies and fast construction methods should be fully integrated into a structural design to achieve an economic building. Innovations Traditionally, tall buildings are constructed in either concrete, steel or a combination of both. A major challenge can be finding economy in design due to the large loads that need to be supported. However our structural experts are constantly exploring new ways of constructing lighter, more cost effective buildings and are currently developing a new ultra light system for tall buildings. HaskoningDHV have been the structural designers. In 2013 New Babylon was a European finalist. In 2014 The Rotterdam was winner. At the time CTBUH stated: De Rotterdam is an exercise in formal interpretation that is at once reminiscent of an imported mid-century American skyscraper, but epitomizes the off-center experimentalism of modern Dutch art of the foregoing century. Though it is the largest building in the Netherlands, its mass is broken down into three interconnected mixed-use towers. Available project reference sheets of our high rise buildings are: 1) The Rotterdam, Rotterdam (Winner CTBUH Best Tall Building Europe 2014 / In the top 10 of Most Glamorous Buildings Around The World ); 2) New Babylon, The Hague (Winner in the category Architecture Specials of the Iconic Awards 2014 / Cobouw award Best housing project 2011 / 2 nd place CTBUH Best Tall Building 2013, Europe Region); 3) New Orleans, Rotterdam; 4) Het Strijkijzer, The Hague (Emporis Skyscraper Award 2007 Best Tall building / New City Award 2007); 5) De Kroon, The Hague (winner Concrete Award 2011). Weblinks: Royal HaskoningDHV on CTBUH.org: High rises by Royal HaskoningDHV: Blog Maurice Hermens on CTBUH conference: an-densification-sky-is-limit.html In High rise design, Architects are constantly pushing the boundaries, and the requirements for maximising internal space can be challenging for the structural designer. To combat this, Royal HaskoningDHV has taken the innovative approach to use the building façade as load bearing element. Awards The Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat (CTBUH) has awarded several designs on which Royal Structural Design HaskoningDHV Nederland B.V. 6

8 Specialties of our Structural Design Advisory Group 2.2 Urban development / High Rise Buildings In a densely populated country like the Netherlands, particularly in the inner cities, relatively small buildings sites, deep basements and high groundwater levels are typical circumstances that a structural engineer has to manage. Geotechnical engineering, excavations One of the larger risks associated with building construction is often uncertainties surrounding the ground conditions. Early identification of potential soil related problems is essential as it allows these risks to be managed effectively thus avoiding costly and time consuming delays during the construction process. Royal HaskoningDHV s geotechnical experts ensure that these ground related risks are managed effectively at an early stage of the project. Our team of structural and geotechnical engineers has extensive experience in a variety of international projects. A complete geotechnical service from inception reports, risk assessments and desk studies, through to complex numerical analyses, construction control and forensic services can be delivered. Structural expertise in a wide range of projects The structural consultants of Royal HaskoningDHV have experience in a wide range of projects. Innovative structural expertise has been employed in numerous residential, commercial, hospitality, leisure, entertainment and health care projects. We also specialize in the design of complex, mixed use innercity projects. In the public sector buildings such as governmental offices, city halls, courts, museums, theatres and concert halls demand intelligent and sustainable structural solutions. To reduce noise levels and vibrations often special techniques are integrated in our structural designs. Hospitals, laboratories, research centres, clean rooms, data centres, university buildings and transport hubs like airports and rail stations also have their own structural challenges and solutions. The structural designers of Royal HaskoningDHV are a strong partner in realizing projects. Structural Design HaskoningDHV Nederland B.V. 7

Old, delapetated buildings are very often overlooked as an opportunity for redevelopment. However we have been discovering that many of these buildings have excellent potential for a second life. Examples of this are Industrial buildings which are transformed into apartment blocks or office buildings. In addition, there is also the potential for Office buildings of the past becoming hotels of the future. Structures have a 2 nd life Royal HaskoningDHV have been designing building structures for over 130 years. We believe that having this knowledge gives us excellent opportunities for the future. Façade retention and temporary supports are typical themes in heritage protected buildings. With advanced modern calculation techniques and knowledge of older methods of construction, we are well equipped to provide these older, historical buildings a second life. Low weight building Low weight building is often more sustainable than high weight building. Fewer materials are used, enabling more efficient transport management and more building options: more floors can be built in the same area. Low weight building also opens doors to other options, like building on floating structures or on top of existing buildings. Instead of working with standard concrete and steel structures, timber and steel structures with leightweight floor types can be practical and and economic solutions. The weight of these structures can be reduced to 20% of a traditional structure. Extra effort is needed to address the demands on acoustics, vibration and fire. Example of a very low weight building: De Karel Doorman A reference project for very low weight building is De Karel Doorman, Rotterdam, whereby sixteen residential storeys have been built on the existing Ter Meulen building. This combination of low weight and multi-storey building is unique. In order to optimise comfort, very specific knowledge of acoustics, vibrations and heat management is necessary. Floors, ceilings and partition walls are acoustically disconnected, creating an entirely separate box-in-box system. The required expertise was developed in partnership by Royal HaskoningDHV and TNO. Available project reference sheets for redevelopments / low weight buildings are: 1) Karel Doorman, Rotterdam 2) Witte Dame, Eindhoven 3) Twenty4Amsterdam, Amsterdam 4) Las Palmas, Rotterdam 5) Twenthe Centrum, Almelo 6) Headquarters Royal HaskoningDHV, Amersfoort 2.4 Specialism & Innovations The knowledge and experience of our staff is the key to realize the goals of our clients and partners in structural projects. Permanent education based on a university degree in structural engineering and developing personal skills through the years are the best base for every project. Basics of structural design Structures designed by Royal HaskoningDHV s structural designers are based on the latest theoretical knowledge, building codes and extensive experience. Our designs are optimised using available materials like: steel, concrete, timber, stone, glass and composites. Designs are based on traditional and/or advanced, innovative building techniques and technologies, depending on situation and location. The essence of structural design is connecting the demands of geometry, materials (concrete, steel, woord) and loads (gravity, wind, seismic). Structural Design HaskoningDHV Nederland B.V. 8

26 Staff Management (5) building mechanics modelling and stability. I am active in the field of 2nd opinions, optimizations, damage assessments and assessments for different public bodies and entities. Name: Jan Font Freide Position: Leading Professional As Director Advisory Group Structural Design, I am responsible for all structural design activities in the business line Buildings of Royal HaskoningDHV. In the Netherlands the Advisory Group (about 75 staff) is located in the offices in Amsterdam, Eindhoven, Nijmegen and Rotterdam. Together we work with passion on innovative sustainable projects. After my study at the University of Eindhoven, faculty Building Technology, I started my professional career as a structural engineer at Corsmit Consulting Engineers in The Hague, the Netherlands. Within a couple of years I became partner and later director of the office. In 2007 Corsmit was taken over by Royal Haskoning, which merged with DHV in As a professional structural engineer and structural designer I was involved in many important building projects in the Netherlands and abroad. (Saoudi Arabia, St. Maarten, Accra, Great Britain, Dubai, Bahrein, Denmark.) For many of these project I was the person finally responsible for the structural design. Now, within Royal HaskoningDHV, the management tasks are done by other people and I am able to focus on the structural design and engineering and on the construction aspects. Name: Jan Janssen Position: Director Advisory Group Structural Design Name: John Kraus Position: Leading Professional I started my career as structural engineer and became a leader of professionals. Together we designed many iconic buildings for a large amount of clients, both private and public. In 1985 I became co-owner of an engineering firm of about 200 people. In 1998 this firm became part of DHV. End 2004 the integration started of all the DHV parts within building and industry under the same name. The structural department came under my supervision. After 5 years of success I was appointed as leading professional in As Professional Engineer (Senior Consultant), I am involved in the structural design, construction and refurbishment/renovation of utility buildings, public buildings, including offices, laboratories, education centres, hospitals and parking garages. Furthermore, I manage the integral structural design process of complex projects (project director). I have experience with complex building sites and high rise buildings.
