  40-Metre "Muguet" Tubular Pylon

  This project showcases the modelling of a 40-metre-high "Muguet" tubular pylon in Tekla Structures. The shaft, with a decagonal profile and variable sections, starts with a base diameter of 1.5 metres. The crossarms, featuring curved octagonal profiles with variable sections, extend, some of them, beyond 3.5 metres. By using custom parametric profiles and the Sketch Solver tool, I ensured precise control over the design, meeting the project's specific technical requirements.

• Add Missing Radius

  Internal Bend Radii for Plates

  The "Internal Bend Radii for Plates" application is an advanced tool designed to optimise your workflow in Tekla Structures. This application automates the process of applying internal bend radii to various modelled plates. The procedure is straightforward and efficient: you only need to import an Excel file containing two columns—one for the thickness of the plates and another for the radii to be applied. After validating your selection, a single execution completes the process. This tool ensures precision, saves time, and maintains consistency across your structural models, making it an essential addition to your modelling toolkit.

  KE Dispatch Center

  The KE Dispatch Centre project is a self-initiated venture born from my imagination. This project features three distinct areas: an office space of over 2000 m² spread across three floors and a ground floor, a patio exceeding 700 m², and a large workshop of 9500 m².I modelled the entire project, including the building framework, roofing, and cladding, using the 2024 educational version of Tekla Structures software.

  KE High School

  As part of designing a modern high school, I modeled an aesthetically pleasing and functional educational structure using Revit Architecture. The focal point is its steel framework, blending elegance and strength for architectural flexibility. Walls and slabs, designed with civil engineering principles, ensure safety and durability. Revit modeling enabled detailed visualization, integrating structural and aesthetic aspects. This project combines civil engineering expertise and architectural innovation, creating an inspiring and secure learning environment.

  Family Factory

  The 'Family Factory' project is a concept I developed using Tekla. It represents a vision I had for a steel-framed factory, with dimensions of 50 meters in length and 16 meters in width. This initiative aims to address the specific operational needs of a family-owned business. In this design, I incorporated various functional elements such as sectional doors, a pedestrian gate, windows for natural ventilation, and an overhead crane for moving heavy loads. Additionally, bracing elements have been added to ensure the structural stability of the factory. To add a personalized touch, I also considered the inclusion of decorative elements to give the factory a distinctive identity. While this project remains in the conceptual stage, this design reflects my commitment to creating industrial spaces tailored to the specific needs of each business, even within the realm of imagination.
