EMBODIMENT PRINCIPLES

ERGONOMICS:

It is a structure which is built against vibration so that lateral fluctuation of the structure can be avoided. Since the synthesis of materials can be used the structure has got better stability, less in compressive nature while compared to the ordinary structures. Compared to the present concrete structures of same size, less amount of raw materials are used to construct an eco-friendly structure. As per the bylaws and codal provisions, 20% of the floor area should be given as openings. Since the available area for ventilation is more, better kind of ventilation systems is adopted and also best use of sunlight is possible during daytime.

AESTHETICS:

Structure is more unique with architectural appearance which is more suitable for the conditions existing in the future. Foundation is totally different rather than commonly used shallow and deep foundations which are constructed using combination of high strength carbon steel and rubber rollers. The foundation is capable of resisting earthquake vibrations, also makes the structure more stable against lateral movements. The pyramidal shape of the structure has a high historical significance. The shape is also thought to be representative of the descending rays of the sun. When looked at from a distance it’s a treat to the eyes.

TECHNICAL ASPECTS:

The spheres and the tension members can be manufactured at the shop and arrangement of joints and connections is done at the site in an easy way. Prescribed quality tests on the members are conducted at the site before assembling the members in proper manner. As far as possible mismatching of members are avoided in this particular case. Suitable precautions must be taken against high speed winds during the constructions. The only possibility for the failure of the structure is due to buckling effect. With the help of suitable technical aspects this can be avoided and maximum service load and ultimate load capacity of the structure is calculated. The joints of the structures are more stable, non-slip and are capable of transferring load with greater eccentricity and large bending moments.
