The Kazakh pavilion was the heart of the EXPO 2017 in Astana. The ball-shaped construction of steel and glass with a diameter of 80 m had to be designed in a very short time and erected at temperatures as low as -40°C. In the upper part, there are two wind turbines, which contribute to the sustainable energy supply of the pavilion. (Copyright: Andreas Keller, Altdorf, see p. 125) x |

Dedicated to our speaker, Prof. Werner Sobek, in honour of his 65th birthday In 2017, the University of Stuttgart started a Collaborative Research Centre with the title Adaptive Skins and Structures for the Built Environment of Tomorrow. The goal of this research project is to find an answer to today's most urgent social and ecological questions as the global population continuously increases and the available resources remain limited. As the central approach to the solution of this problem, adaptive elements will be included in the structure, the interior and the façade of an experimental 37 m tall building. This paper introduces the topic of adaptivity in building structures and provides an overview of the research topics applied in this globally unique adaptive high-rise building. Due to the complexity of research topics of this Collaborative Research Centre, this paper only covers the research concerning the experimental high-rise building. x |
Baker, William F.; Mazurek, Arek; Hartz, Christian | The design of structural "spider webs" | Steel Construction | 2/2018 | 118-124 | Articles |
Dedicated to Prof. Werner Sobek on the occasion of his 65th birthday In 1864, James Clerk Maxwell wrote the remarkable paper “On Reciprocal Figures and Diagrams of Forces.” Maxwell observed that for a frame (what today would be called a truss or a net) to be in equilibrium, it must be the projection of a plane-faced polyhedron. It is now known that this observation is correct, provided the bars of the truss or net and the lines of the external applied forces can be represented by a planar graph. We also know that the plane-faced polyhedron is the Airy stress function. This information can greatly assist a structural designer in creating, adjusting, and analysing structural nets. These nets can be planar structures or the planar projections of three dimensional nets (including spider webs). Simple visual techniques can be used to evaluate how many independent states of self-stress exist and how to adjust the design to achieve goals such as targeted geometries, redundancies or forces. Combined with force-density form finding, this process creates a powerful design tool. This paper will review the theoretical background and applications of the design process. x |
Bechmann, Roland; Hagenmayer, Stephen; Winterstetter, Thomas | Efficiency and beauty - steel structures by Werner Sobek | Steel Construction | 2/2018 | 125-132 | Articles |
Dedicated to Prof. Werner Sobek on the occasion of his 65th birthday On 16 May 2018, Prof. Werner Sobek turned 65. A few months earlier, the group of companies he founded, with more than 300 employees worldwide, celebrated its 25th anniversary. We would like to use Werner Sobek's birthday as an opportunity to reflect on some of the steel structures inspired by him. Out of the many projects that would have been eligible, the authors have focused on those that seem of primary importance or have not been written about yet. x |

Wardenier, Jaap; Packer, Jeffrey A.; Puthli, Ram | Simplified design equations for Plate-to-CHS T and X joints for use in codes | Steel Construction | 2/2018 | 146-161 | Articles |
This paper deals with revised, simplified, consistent equations for plate-to-Circular Hollow Section (CHS) joints for inclusion in codes. After a short review of the background to these resistance equations in the current consolidated version of EN 1993-1-8 and those in ISO 14346, the background to these simplified new equations is discussed. The equations for Plate-to-Circular Hollow Section T and X joints (called TP and XP joints respectively) in the current EN 1993-1-8 are based on experimental data available up to 1991. They are further related to the equations for CHS T and X joints. Most of the data used are based on the ultimate joint resistance. A similar approach is used for the TP and XP equations in ISO 14346, but these are related to the updated equations for CHS T and X joints. Since the drafting of ISO 14346, new consistent numerical data from Voth became available where the resistance is not only based on the ultimate resistance but also takes the 3 %d0 joint deformation limit into account. The new equations in prEN 1993-1-8 are based on the Voth data, the de Winkel data and the Voth-Packer equations, but use a simplified uniform presentation which permits one to relate joints with an I, H and RHS brace-to-CHS chord to these basic equations. Furthermore, the presented equations are based on the case of axial compression load in the plate, which is the lower bound of the compression and tension load cases. x |
