Product catalog summary
Project Overview: The document describes the construction of a 29 x 53 m warehouse for Valbois SA in Conthey, Switzerland. The warehouse is designed to resemble a giant table and provides maximum flexibility for storing joinery supplies.
Structural Specifications: The main load-bearing structure consists of four fixed supports with a T-shaped cross-section and two main longitudinal beams with a twin cross-section measuring 53 meters. Additionally, 13 secondary beams run across the warehouse, linked by suspended purlins. The structure is designed to withstand horizontal forces from earthquakes and wind, with glued-in threaded rods and shear tappets dispersing these forces into the concrete foundation.
Construction Details: Haring & Corp. Ltd. played a significant role as a joint general contractor, ensuring the structural framework provided maximum flexibility for vehicle access and storage. The ends of the main beams are covered for weather protection, and a cladded band runs around the roof edge. The metal roofing includes intermittent light-admitting sheets.
Materials Used: The construction utilized 195m3 of glulam (glued laminated timber) and covers an area of 1500m2.
Visual Documentation: The document includes images depicting various stages of construction, such as the arrival of components on site, erection of main beams, assembly of secondary structure beams, and fixation points at the base of supports.
