Pre-Engineered Building
The Main Plant for Groz Engineering
Tools is one of the largest industrial Pre Engineered Building
structures in North India. The building measures 160 m x
80 m (518�4� x 259�3�) and �12.75m high. It is located within
a 6 Acres Industrial Complex in Gurgaon, Haryana. The internal
systems are designed to a high degree of flexibility in
order to adapt to changing layouts and process requirements
such as electrical, compressed air, treated water and machine
loading. The basic framework follows a grid of 8.0m longitudinally
(along 160 m. length) and 15.0m (along 80 m. length) transversely.
The end bay on one eave is 17.5m..

Bus Shelter
The
concept of Fabricated Steel Bus Queue Shelters was developed
by M/s Incubus. The dynamic design is an open, barrier-free
space, with easy access for even physically challenged persons.
The Shelter has five pillars making up four bays. Each pillar
is mounted on a pre-cast RCC foundation block. The pillars
are made of ISLC 200 sections butt-welded toe-to-toe. The
pillars are connected with purlins at the roof level and
114mm nominal diameter pipes at the seating level. Two bays
have Kota stone seats bonded to gussets welded to the pipes.
The subsequent bays have a pair of SS pipes each for commuters
to lean/sit on. All seats and leaning pipes are angled towards
the approaching traffic. All features have been designed
keeping in mind off-site fabrication and rapid on-site assembly.
For corrosion protection synthetic enamel paint was used

Guggenheim
Museum, Bilbao
The museum, constructed to house the
collections of modern art in the world, is located on
the bank of the river in Bilbao. The complex consists
of 11 inter-connected buildings with complex shapes
and curving surfaces. These are accommodated within
a steel framed skeleton which provided the designers
with the opportunity to create such a free-form structure.

Kansai Airport, Osaka, Japan
The
airport was built on a man-made island, and much of
the steel framed structure for the terminal was fabricated
in the UK and transported to site by ship. Despite
the complex geometry of the structure and the long
shipping distances, construction was completed within
36 months.
