| Abstrakt: | The Franz Masereel Centre roof structure is based on a centuries-old structural typology called reciprocal frame. Known from centuries to span over great distances with limited-length-timber-elements, this typology is generated by mutually self-supporting elements placed on a specific geometrical adjustment, and mainly developed through simple repetitive patterns. In the context of the extension of the Franz Masereel Centre, it has been adapted on an extruded truncated cone, offering a unique space, spreading through intimate rooms with various perspectives, giving no specific directions and evolving through the different spaces. This project is the opportunity to experiment the possibilities and limits of new technologies in the development of a millenary structural typology. During the whole design process, the different stakes – from the architectural orientations to the structural behaviour- have been applied as various parameters of different geometrical optimizations and it has been the opportunity to study a large panel of reciprocal frame possibilities. This paper will present the results of this study and their applications and will provide a critical look-back on the processes of optimization of reciprocal frame structures, considering the efficiency of the tools, the choice of various parameters and different models and the application on a real scale project. |
