| Abstrakt: |
The lens-shaped roof of the S.P. Mukherjee Swimming Pool Complex in New Delhi (India) and the record breaking BC Place in Vancouver (Canada) with its massive 2000 ton cable structure are two outstanding examples of long span roofs supported by cable structures. Most of the characteristics of the two projects are somewhat contrasting: the span (respectively 130 m and 260 m), the cable technology (respectively Cohestrand® and full locked cables), the structural principle (respectively the lens and the bicycle wheel) and the construction methods. However they do have one feature in common: the adoption of an innovative erection method well suited to the constraints of the project (schedule, occupation of the site and available means of erection). All these aspects are presented in the article. |
