| Abstract: |
Sacyr is carrying out the works to bury part of the railroad through the city of Logroño while the line is still on. An important part of the project is the construction of a new railway station below grade covered with a long span roof. The 8.000m² roof is bounded by its upper and lower surfaces which are of very different natures. The upper side is a smooth surface that serves as hill within an urban park that covers the former railroad. The gravity loads are very high in order to bear the ground cover and the live load required by a public space. The lower surface is an organic shape interpolated by large triangles that serve as a ceiling that protects travelers. The triangles stretch and converge to embody the supports. This paper describes the design of the roof and the up-down construction techniques carried out to minimize impact on the city activity. |
