LIBRARIFS 2 Nervi's Design and Construction Methods for Two Thin-Shell Structures: The Leverone Field House and Thompson Arena by Momo T. Sun

Submitted to the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering on May 12, 2017, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Engineering in Civil Engineering

Abstract This thesis studies two major thin-shell concrete structures by Pier Luigi Nervi (1891- 1979) - the Leverone Field House and Thompson Arena. These two similar parabolic vaults are two of the few international structures he has completed in the United States. Situated across the street from each other at , these two thin-shell concrete structures designed only a few years apart and in a such mature stage of Nervi's engineering career deserve a closer look.

Access to Nervi's original calculations, specifications, and correspondences with Dartmouth College reveal a new level of refinement in his design methods and deci- sions. This study analyzes his structural design methods and compares them with approximated hand calculations assuming an asymmetric load on a 3-hinged parabolic arch. The maximum moment was calculated to be within 7% of Nervi's results. An arch was also explored by building a Finite Element (FE) model in SAP2000, how- ever, the results proved the model to be an unreliable representation of the behavior of the funicular concrete arch.

Furthermore, never before published construction photos give clues to the con- struction of the first structure built with the "Nervi System" in the United States. Slight changes were made to the construction method from his previous structures with the Nervi System in Rome. The types of different precast panels were reduced to increase repetition and refinement was made to the multi-step formwork system to reduce the amount of wooden formwork while keeping a high level of accuracy for the shape of the precast panels.

Introduction

1.1 Pier Luigi Nervi and His Structures

Pier Luigi Nervi (1891-1979) was a famous Italian structural engineer known for his economic and pragmatic innovation in reinforced concrete shell structures. He was one of the few designers of his time to bridge the gap between art and technology, in essence, architecture and structural engineering [Nervi, 1965]. He began his ca- reer by designing and building in Italy then developed his own innovative precast concrete system named the "Nervi system", which was a very effective way of build- ing thin-shell barrel vaults. He first used the system to build hangars which created long-spanned structures economically. The Nervi System used precast diamond or triangular-shaped panels as formwork which were connected by casting a thin layer of in-situ concrete, creating ribs between the precast panels. He continued to de- velop this system and gained international recognition for his elegant design and building techniques especially after the construction of one of his most iconic struc- tures, Palazzetto dello Sport, a thin-shell dome used for the 1960 Olympics in Rome [Bologna and Neri, 2013]. While Nervi's projects were widely celebrated among engineers, architects, and the general public for their daring and elegant designs, the two specific structures to be discussed in this thesis have received very little publicity. These were two of the few structures Nervi has ever built using his own system outside of Italy and arguably

13 the most involved international projects illustrated by his personal licensure. In the archives at Dartmouth College there were six professional engineering (PE) licenses for New Hampshire, one for each year from 1970 to 1976 for the design and construction duration of Thompson Arena, the same were likely obtained for earlier years for the Leverone Field House [Dartmouth College, 1962b]. This was the only licensure Nervi obtained outside of Italy [Leslie, 2018]. Table 1.1 shows the list of projects Nervi completed in the United States. The Leverone Field House was designed and constructed from 1960 to 1962, and Thompson Arena from 1967 to 1976. With the two projects at Dartmouth College only five years apart, the study of this pair of structures shows the refinement of his design methods in a mature stage of his career [Bologna and Neri, 2013].

1.2 Literature Review

There is an abundance of literature and published works on Nervi and his major projects in Italy, however, his projects in the United States, namely Leverone Field House and Thompson Arena, are surprisingly understudied. The two structures at Dartmouth College are mostly neglected, sometimes mentioned in passing and occa- sionally the Field House received a short feature in books showcasing Nervi's projects but the Thompson Arena is largely missed. From the Database for Civil and Struc- tural Engineering, included are all of Nervi's projects worldwide and links to relevant publishing for each structure [Structurae, 2016]. Not surprisingly, there are 12 rele- vant articles or books for Palazzo dello Sport [Structurae, 2016]. To a lesser scale, the

14 Leverone Field House has three relevant articles [Structurae, 2016]. Lastly, Thomp- son Arena has zero listed relevant articles or books [Structurae, 2016]. Of course this is not an exhaustive list for all published works on each project but it shows a stark contrast between the detailed analyses that have gone into other similar Nervi projects and the two thin-shells at Dartmouth College. There have been no in-depth analyses on the design methodology for the Leverone Field House and Thompson Arena or on the construction process. This warrants fur- ther study because Nervi was a great designer who paid equal attention to architec- ture, structural expression, construction, and economics and yet these two important projects have not been studied. Nervi passed away in 1979, and arguably since the 1975 Thompson Arena is one of Nervi's last projects, it has some of the most im- proved and refined elements of design, making this project even more of a target to study [Britannica, 2016].

1.3 Problem Statement

Visits to Dartmouth College uncovered first hand materials found in the archives and seeing the structures themselves gave new insight into the otherwise poorly published structures. This thesis uses Nervi's original calculations and documents to analyze his design methods and decisions. With the addition of these new resources, this thesis seeks to answer the following questions:

1. What is the historical significance of the two structures?

" What materials are available in Archives and the MAXXI Archives?

" What generalizations can be made from the material?

2. What was the structural design process for the two thin-shell concrete struc- tures?

* How did Nervi determine the shape of the structures?

15 * What methods did Nervi use to analyze the structures? What assumptions did he make?

3. What was the construction method of the two structures?

* How did Nervi adjust his design and methodology for building in the US?

Case Studies

Dartmouth's Business Manager Richard W. Olmsted (Dartmouth '32) attended the 1960 Olympic Games at Palazzetto dello Sport. After seeing the elegant crystalline geometric units that made up the stadium, he decided to hire Nervi to design a similar sports facility for the college [Meacham, 2008]. From 1960 to 1962, Nervi designed and constructed the Leverone Field House, then he was rehired in 1967 to design the Thompson Arena. Both are parabolic vaults constructed with precast concrete panels from Nervi's system. The design philosophies were the same for both structures. A visit to the facilities showed how strikingly similar they were both on the exterior and interior. Located across the street and with the front of the stadiums facing each other, it could have created a unique mirroring effect with the near identical structures. However, this effect was never achieved because Thompson Arena hides behind a row of preserved early-twentieth-century houses and can barely be seen from the street. Records and sketches from college planning at Dartmouth showed that there were several attempts to join the two structures to make one large sports plaza, however, this was never realized due to the preservation of the historic houses [Dartmo., 2012]. Table 2.1 show details about geometry and cost for each of the two structures. No- tably, the Thompson Arena costs significantly more per square area than the Leverone Field House. Although Thompson Arena is smaller in terms of area, it is a more com- plex facility in terms of functionality and encloses a significantly larger volume for

17 more capacity. The ice surface and seating are completely below grade which resulted in increased costs from excavation. The hockey rink, cooling facilities, and seating itself also added largely to the total cost compared to the simple open field, on grade design for the Leverone Field House. A crude estimation of the excavation costs with the approximate volume of soil excavated and an assumed cost of $300/m2 yields $2.8 million USD in 2017 [Homewyse, 2017]. With this excavation cost and other additional costs for the facility, the cost for the two structures are fairly comparable.

2.1 Leverone Field House

The Leverone Field House, shown in Figure 2-1, is the better known of the two facilities. Nervi had already gained international recognition by this point and had worked on several projects abroad, however, none were entirely in his iconic style of curved thin-shell concrete structures with interlacing ribs. Though he was an acclaimed and sought after designer, it was unexpectedly difficult for Nervi to convince owners to design and build purely using his precast system. Richard W. Olmsted being an admirer of Nervi's unique style, was the first to take the risk and approve the never-before used precast design to be constructed in the US at Dartmouth College. The vaulted long-span barrel roof created a large uninterrupted surface for indoor

18 track facilities, and an indoor practice ground for football and other field sports as shown in Figure 2-2. The field of the structure is on grade with buttresses propping up the barrel roof hidden along the length of the building creating offices and storage areas. Typical of Nervi's iconic thin-shell concrete designs, the roof is made up of a variation of four different types of precast panels, diamond-shaped near the crown and triangular panels closer to the landing edge beams. The roof consists of a slab with uniform thickness and ribs with tapering thickness from 0.8m at the spandrel to 0.5m at the crown [StudioNervi, 1973]. The edge beams are connected to sets of vertical and angled, A-shaped buttresses as shown in Figure 2-3. These buttresses have a rectangular section that gradually narrows as it approaches the ground. Figure 2-4 shows the exterior side view which is an inexpressive plain brick wall covering offices and storage areas. This facility is still in use today for track and field and other varsity team practices [, 2016b].

21 2.2 Thompson Arena

The lesser known Thompson Arena started its lengthy design process in 1965 shortly after the completion of the Leverone Field House in 1962. Construction began in 1973 and the arena was open for its first game in 1975. When completed, the ice arena was the largest venue of its kind among US colleges to host varsity hockey games [Dart- mouth College, 1962b]. It gained some attention amongst hockey programs, however as one of the last structures Nervi ever designed, it received very little attention in the structural world. Nervi passed away in 1979, only four years after the comple- tion of this project, leaving this to be his final complete project in the US [Bologna, 2013]. His son Antonio Nervi, the apprentice designer on this project passed away later in the same year [Bologna, 2013]. Perhaps it is because the structure is hidden behind from the street view, or perhaps because it is so similar to the Leverone Field House, it went unnoticed. The Thompson Arena is rarely mentioned in publications on Nervi's works and sometimes even missed in lists of his completed works.

Figure 2-5 shows the Thompson Arena, it is a parabolic vault of 54m by 90m made up of 1,024 triangular precast concrete units, each weighing one ton [Dartmouth Big Green, 2016a]. At first glance it may seem that the Thompson Arena is virtually identical to its precedent across the street, however, upon closer examination, it is clear that Nervi has made many refinements to this second sports facility. Pier Luigi Nervi negli Stati Uniti in 2013 is the only publication with a dedicated passage for the Thompson Arena [Bologna, 2013].

This structure contains Nervi's two most distinctive styles: columns with vari- able cross-section which twists and tapers, and ribbed shell with precast geometric elements. It has the Y-shaped buttresses on the exterior, shown in Figures 2-7 and 2-8, transfer gravity and thrust loads to foundation, they are visually identical to the buttresses at the famous Palazzetto dello Sport. As shown in Figure 2-6, the arena is more grand than it appears from the outside, the building is excavated so that the ice surface and all the stadium seats sit below grade. This created a much larger space than what can be seen or expected from the square footage of the building. It

22 still remains one of the greatest venues for college hockey games, with 3,520 stadium seats and room for standees, and the largest crowd for a playoff game was recorded at 6,000 attendees [Dartmouth Big Green, 2016a].

Throughout his career, Nervi had been developing his techniques for designing long- span concrete structures and using interlaced ribs as a way to decrease the thickness of the overall roof slab. This first began in 1935 when he designed aircraft hangars for WWII. Later he achieved his laudatory title "Poet in Concrete" for the sports palaces in Rome in the 1960 Olympic Games [Dartmouth Big Green, 2016b]. The elegant geometric roof with interlacing ribs were truly an astounding achievement of creating interesting architecture with structural design.

Nervi lectured at Harvard as a Charles Eliot Norton Professor for the year 1961- 1962 where he combined the ideas of technical and aesthetic aspects. Through his lectures, the goal was to advocate and support architecture and structural engineering as a synthesis of technology and art rather than technology as well as art [Nervi, 1965]. Since the lectures were concurrent with the construction of the Leverone Field House, it was the last project mentioned during his professorship. A few construction photos were included to illustrate the construction process of the precast panels working with in-situ concrete.

Both of Nervi's structures at Dartmouth College share many similarities with Palazzetto dello Sport in Rome in terms of the design features and principles, how- ever, there is a clear flow of design changes as he began his first building in the US. Starting with the Leverone Field House in 1962, Nervi wanted to keep the concept from Palazzetto dello Sport but scale back the complexity. First, because this facility is on a smaller scale since it is a college stadium as opposed to an Olympic stadium, and second, because he is working in a new environment where he has no previous experience with the construction materials or the level of skilled laborers available. For the Leverone Field House, many of the details from the Sports Palace were sim- plified or completely eliminated. Interestingly enough, for Thompson Arena, Nervi added back some details as he got a better sense of what could be achieved in the US and as a result, this second structure is more similar to Palazzetto dello Sport.

26 2.3.1 Roof

The roof geometry was simplified from a double curvature dome to a single curvature parabolic vault. This allowed a moving arch scaffolding on rails to construct the roof one strip at a time. Construction methods and further details will be explained in Chapter 4. The precast elements were also simplified from an array of various sized diamonds and other geometric shapes to only four different types of panels, these were either diamonds or triangles. For the Thompson Arena designed a few years later, all the basic concepts of a parabolic vault stayed the same except he further simplified the precast panels eliminating the diamonds and having only triangles. Only one single size precast element was used for the entire vault [StudioNervi, 1973.

Figure 2-9: Roof plan for Thompson Arena showing precast panels and Y-buttresses [Dartmouth College, 1962b]

2.3.2 Buttress

The buttresses supporting the roof of the Leverone Field House had the same struc- tural concept as Palazzetto dello Sport, transferring load from the roof directly to the ground on the perimeter leaving an unobstructed field in the interior. However, the details of the buttresses were largely simplified. The buttresses protrude through interior storage areas and have a rectangular section that linearly narrows as it ap- proaches the ground. These are hidden within an exterior wall. The shape of the first buttress can be seen through the front face of the building while the others along the length of the building are unceremoniously hidden within storage area surrounded by gym equipment. By the time Nervi got to designing the Thompson Arena, he brought back many of the details for the buttresses he had previously used at Palazzetto dello

27 Sport. The buttresses were expressed in a much more structurally artistic way, ex- posed and on the exterior, becoming one of the expressive features of Thompson

Arena. These were refined Y-buttresses with a complex curving taper on each side of the column, they now have a complex varying cross-section compared to the ones at Leverone Field House. These buttresses look identical to the ones at Palazzetto dello

Sport in Rome.

2.3.3 Exterior and Front Face

The front and back face of the Leverone Field House are made up of glass curtain walls. This consists of vertical steel tubes and glass allowing nature light to come in on either ends. This also created a distinct look that is different than the rest of the concrete building. The design of the front and back faces of the Thompson Arena are much simpler. There exist the same vertical lines as were with the Leverone Field House, however, the design of the structure is more uniform and has a purity for material usage. Concrete extruded verticals do not create the same effects as the extruded steel frames on tinted glass, Thompson Arena has a simpler design and the structure relies on the expressive buttresses as a focal point for structural and architectural detail. Since it is a facility that will house an ice rink, it was a wise decision to not replicate the previous curtain wall design with glass, the solid concrete wall eliminates the glare from the windows, the sunlight that would melt the ice, and also provides better insulation from the outside temperatures.

2.3.4 Antonio Nervi's Learning Experience

Since the Thompson Arena had such similar criteria and design goals as the Leverone

Field House, Pier Luigi Nervi saw it as an excellent learning opportunity for his son Antonio Nervi (1925-1979), in effort to pass on his studio to his sons. It took five years (1967-1972) for this project to be approved; this design process was longer than the Field House previously. Part of this was due to the learning curve for Antonio

Nervi and part was due to a slightly more complex structure [Bologna and Gargiani,

28 2006]. Although the intentions were for Antonio to complete most of the design work for this project, instead, he mainly handled correspondences with the client in the US. Nervi made all the design decisions. Therefore, in literature and in this paper, the name "Nervi" simply refers to Pier Luigi Nervi and not his sons.

2.4 Summary of Case Studies

In some aspects, the design of the Thompson Arena was simplified. For example, the types of different precast panels were reduced from diamond and triangular-shaped to only triangular-shaped, to streamline the construction process. There are other ways the Thompson Arena was more refined. Compared to the earlier Leverone Field House, the Thompson Arena is more expressive and is aesthet- ically superior. The multi-dimensionally tapered buttresses on the exterior greatly added to the structural expression and aesthetics of the structure. The concrete end walls with the accented extrusions is an improvement from the steel members and curtain wall design of the Leverone Field House in terms of purity in material usage. Lastly, the Thompson Arena is a better use of space, hosting a larger venue with more capacity in a smaller footprint.

Structural Analysis

This research uncovered design documents at Dartmouth College archives with orig- inal calculations, specifications, and letters from Studio Nervi. There was one design package, "Calcoli Statici" of 77 pages for the Leverone Field House [StudioNervi, 1961]. The Thompson Arena has one main package of 72 pages which is clearly a copy from the design package from Leverone Field House. There were also additional packages B and C which were only a few pages each on the design of the buttresses [StudioNervi, 1973]. These design packages contain some diagrams and numerous detailed tables with precise values for each step of his calculation. How did he design the shape of the structures? What assumptions did he make to carry out his analyses? Deciphering the calculations showed Nervi's strategic design decisions. Not surprisingly, the de- sign packages revealed that he used the same methods for the two structures. For comparison, the following subsections will also show approximate hand calculations and FE models in SAP2000 (Computer and Structures, Inc., Version 15) to check against Nervi's analyses.

3.1 Nervi's Method

The structural analysis was carried out by assuming a transverse portion of the vault as a fix-fixed arch. Nervi establishes an "elementary arch" of just under 3m width

31 to analyze for each of the structures. Because the ribs of the roof are diagonally interlaced and complex, there are no constant transverse sections to simplify the analysis. He chose the elementary arch in such a way so that there is always at least one rib through the transverse section, see Figure 3-8. This way, he was able to design the roof in strips, approximating an elementary arch with a T-section. The design philosophy was to minimize moment with the shape of the arch. Nervi approximated the dead load and live load for the roof, then designed the curve of the arch to coincide with the curve of pressures from the Dead Load and half of the Live Load. This results in zero moment for the fix-fixed arch under a uniform load of DL+0.5LL. The elementary arch was subdivided into 20 segments with equal horizontal projection, working with 10 segments for the half arch when analyzing symmetric uniform loads. Instead of using an approximate parabolic shape, Nervi spent an immense amount of effort to determine the exact shape using an elastic equation from "Belluzzi Vol. II, page 217",

Figure 3-2: Leverone Field House, T-section for design of reinforcement, from Calcoli Statici, 05-05-1961 [StudioNervi, 1961]

The calculation packages show many tables with geometric and section properties for each segment on the half arch, such as x- and y-coordinates, area, section modulus, moment of inertia, etc. These were used by Nervi to produce the moments, normal forces, and shear forces of each segment. Nervi defined two load conditions that were applied to an elementary arch with fixed-end conditions: 1. Symmetric Dead Load + Symmetric Live Load 2. Symmetric Dead Load + Asymmetric !(Live Load) The Dead Load is not a constant uniform distributed load because it largely

33 consists of self-weight, the loading increases closer to the ends of the arch as the projected self-weight increases, as seen in Figure 3-3. Instead of calculating the two complex loading conditions, two simpler loading schemes, as shown in Figure 3-4, were analyzed so they can be superimposed in ways to achieve the results of the loading conditions above.

After defining these load schemes and conditions, he analyzed the fix-fixed arch as a pin-pinned arch with moments constraints counteracting at each reaction. This is what he used to calculate the reactions for the fixed-end arch for the loading schemes in Figure 3-4. Results from loading Schemes 1 and 2 were superimposed in various ways such as adding a reflection of a loading scheme or subtracting a loading scheme to arrive at the two loading conditions. The moments obtained from the asymmetric loading condition, condition #2, was governing for the moment resistance design for the buttresses.

Lateral resistance was analyzed in both transverse and longitudinal direction of the building. For the transverse direction, wind load governed over seismic. There was only one load case with a uniform lateral wind force applied to an elementary arch with fixed supports. Similar to the gravity calculations, the arch was divided into 20 segments and the moments, normal forces, and shear forces were found for each segment. In the longitudinal direction, seismic forces governed over wind. The

35 columns were designed to resist the lateral load in the longitudinal direction. Furthermore, Nervi was known to test scaled models to find the capacity and safety factor of his complex structures towards the end of his career. Figure 3-5 shows the scaled 1:50 resin model being tested under seismic loading in the elastic range. This was Nervi's last model tested at the Bergamo in 1970-1971 [Cassinello et al., 2010]. In addition to the load cases, Nervi checked the effects of horizontally displacing the columns by 25mm (1 in) to allow for construction tolerance [Long, 1967]. Since the buildings were located in New Hampshire where the weather is more frigid than the weather in Italy where he is used to working, he determined the effects of a 38*C(100*F) decrease in temperature [Long, 1967]. These two additional requirements were known to be evaluated for the Leverone Field House through correspondences, however, the calculations were not included in the package submitted to Dartmouth College. One obvious area missing from the calculations were serviceability checks. In the specifications at the beginning of each calculation package, there are precise instructions to make sure that construction would be carried out as precisely as possible. This is in line with the detailed calculations he for both the structures. There were no mention or calculations of deflection of the roof, it is likely that Nervi knew from the experience of his previous projects that deflection would be minimal. Deflection will be explored in Section 3.3 with a finite element model.

3.2 Approximation Using Hand Calculations

The funicular shape of the arch for the roof is very close to a parabola. An ap- proximate hand calculation for moment for an asymmetric load is used by assuming a 3-hinge pin-pinned parabolic arch. See Appendix B for derivation of M1, for the maximum moment at .1 span.

38 M1 = (3.2) 64 For the Leverone Field house, the moment at the loaded side fixed-end was 209kNm per elementary arch. The moment obtained from the equation above was 194kNm per elementary arch, this is an excellent approximation compared with Nervi's detailed calculations with only a 7% difference. This provides a lower bound, equilibrium approximation to Nervi's elementary arch.

3.3 Finite Element (FE) Model

Another method to compare the results from Nervi's method is with elastic FE mod- els. A model of the elementary arch was made in SAP2000 for the Leverone Field House in order to compare the results from current FE models to the results Nervi obtained from the energy method by breaking up the arch using (SAP2000, Com- puter and Structures, Inc., Version 15). Set up in the same way as Nervi's method, the arch was broken down into 20 elements with the exact geometry, the input was determined from x and y coordinates in tables from Studio Nervi. Other parameters were also obtained from Nervi's calculation package to match the exact properties of the transverse arch from Nervi's calculation, such as slightly varying moment of inertia (I) and cross sectional area (A) values. The modulus of elasticity (E), stayed constant at 24,500MPa as defined in the specifications [StudioNervi, 1961]. The model was built in 2D space to restrict the forces in a 2D plane avoiding out of plane action. Nervi designed the shape of the arch to have zero moment under Dead Load and half of the Live Load, however, with this loading the FE model resulted in some bending moment throughout the length of the arch whereas this funicular shape should result in zero bending moment. The output of result were puzzling for this funicular arch, and resulted in about a 50% larger moment at the supports under the asymmetric loading scheme as summarized in Table 3.1. The largest bending moment from the FE model under the Dead Load and half of the uniform Live Load is 90kNm at the center of the crown and slightly less at the fixed ends. The FE model seemed to

39 be overly sensitive and therefore produced exaggerated bending moments compared to the energy method and the 3-hinged approximate hand calculations which were within reasonable tolerance of each other. In terms of analysis of funicular arches, FE modeling in SAP2000 was not a reliable method to predict the forces and reactions of an elastic arch, because it predicts bending moments in a no-bending arch geometry. With this in mind, this SAP2000 model was also used to investigate the deflection of the arch. The FE model proved to deliver more plausible results for serviceability. Under load condition 1 mentioned previously with a symmetric Dead Load and Live Load, the maximum predicted deflection is in the center with the crown deflecting 22mm downwards. This is well within the L/240 limit which allows 278mm. A test for the absolute worst condition with the full Live Load applied asymmetrically over the left half of the span gives a maximum deflection near the quarter point of the span. The deflection is 109mm which is closer but still within the L/360 limit which allows 185mm. After applying conservative load cases, the deflections predicted by FE are still well within current common deflection limits. It is reasonable that Nervi did not carry out detailed calculation for deflections as part of his submitted calculation package.

3.4 Summary of Structural Analysis

The structural design packages show that Nervi used an energy method to analyze an elementary arch. The shape of the arch was designed for zero bending moment under DL+0.5LL loading. A quick approximate hand calculations using a 3-hinged arch provided the closest resulting moments to Nervi's results. The FE model did not provide a good prediction for the arch because it produced moments for a zero- moment arch geometry. However, the deflections were reasonable estimates compared to the predicted deflected shape deflection limits.

Construction Methods

The Nervi System is a construction method invented and tested by Pier Luigi Nervi through his projects beginning in the 1940s. It is an economical and rapid way to construct large concrete shell structures by use of prefabrication of concrete panels in addition to traditional in-situ concrete. He improved this method through his many projects in Italy but the Leverone Field House was the first time he brought his new construction method to the United States [Long, 1967]. At such a mature stage in Nervi's career, he continued to make changes to per- fect his construction system. As well, he made a few changes to adjust to the new environment in the US. Two major advantages of the system that minimized cost in Italy were lost in the US. First, this system significantly saved on cost from nearly eliminating the use of wooden formwork for the roof. Second, this system required more skilled laborers which were less expensive and more plentiful in Italy. Both benefits were lost in the US where timber was plentiful and inexpensive while skilled laborers were a struggle to find. Those reasons combined with not being able to su- pervise onsite to direct construction as he did with his previous projects prompted Nervi to make many changes to reduce the complexity of both Leverone Field House and Thompson Arena. Many advantages to the Nervi System still remained, working with precast panels and in situ concrete greatly reduced the length of the construction process. This allowed the construction site to be divided into two parts that could operate simul-

43 taneously. The prefabrication was done in a different area onsite with the precast panels laid out ready to be placed and assembled. At the same time, excavation and the erection of the perimeter columns were underway uninterrupted on the building's footprint [Iori, 2009].

4.1 Precast Panels

The precast panels were key to the rapid construction process of the Nervi System. Two thirds of the concrete for the roof were precast meaning they could be prepared while other concrete elements were cast to reduce wait time for curing [Long, 1967]. An intricate, multi-step process was developed for the precast panels which varied slightly from what was done previously in Palazzetto dello Sport. An arch scaffolding to full scale was erected to match the exact curvature for the intrados of the roof vault, the formwork was then built on this arch to achieve the proper curvature for the precast panels. Multiple sets of formwork were used to achieve the precast panels which can be described as inverted reinforced concrete pans. The construction sequence for the precast panels can be seen in Figures 4-1 to 4-8. Brick was used as the first set of formwork; they were laid out in either triangular or diamond shapes. The inside dimensions of the brick formwork were measured to match the interior faces of the final precast concrete panel. The brick formwork were then filled with concrete creating a solid triangular or diamond-shaped prism as shown in Figure 4-2, this shapes the interior surface of the desired precast element. These solid shapes were "negative molds" and served as a surface to guide the reinforcement for the precast element as seen in Figure 4-3. Once the reinforcement is assembled around the negative mold as shown in Figure 4-4, wooden panels were placed around the negative mold with an offset equal to the thickness of the final precast elements, this can be seen in Figure 4-5. Finally, concrete is poured into this final set of formwork. The bottom rim of the produced precast elements would have the exact curvature as the proposed intrados of the arch, forming the correct curvature for the ribs once assembled.

44 This elaborate way of casting the prefabricated elements with multi-step formwork was an efficient and material reducing technique. For the Leverone Field House, there were a total of 1,240 panels of varying shapes and sizes. Certain panels were repeated as many as 76 times, instead of making a large number of wooden formwork that could only be used to fabricate a few panels before they would need to be discarded and replaced, the solid concrete negative molds were durable enough to be used over and over again while maintaining their accuracy. The side portion of the final formwork is the only part that is made from wood, choosing this as the only part with conventional wooden formwork meant it was lightweight and easily removable which is shown in Figure 4-6. Finally, Figure 4-7 shows a finished precast panel being hoisted out of its formwork which would be stored for assembly later. Multiple of the same molds worked simultaneously to quickly produce these precast panels, they were then stripped from formwork after three days and moved to the side for storage until they reach their 28-day concrete strength.

4.2 In-Situ Concrete

In-situ concrete was used for the uniform slab and ribs of the roof, edge beams, and columns. Similar to previous projects with the Nervi System, the perimeter columns or buttresses were first to be erected followed by edge beams. The buttresses used traditional wooden formwork and were cast in place using in-situ concrete. To build the roof, a movable transverse arch section of scaffolding on rails was used to provide the curved surface to lay on the precast panels [Nervi, 1965]. The panels would then be hoisted and arranged one next to another, ready for the in- situ concrete to be casted filling in the ribs as shown in Figure 4-8. Once this was cured, the same section of arched scaffolding would move down the center rails and be ready to cast the next transverse section of the roof. Casting the roof in sections was a stable and efficient way to construct the vault while minimizing the amount of scaffolding. Joints between the elements were stuccoed and the concrete was painted to produce a smooth and uniform look, allowing no evidence of distinction between

45 the precast and in-situ concrete [Nervi, 1965].

4.3 Construction Sequence Photos

The following photos were taken on the Leverone Field House site and they clearly illustrate the construction sequence of the formwork for the precast panels. A similar approach was carried out for the Thompson Arena.

49 4.4 Summary of Construction Methods

The Leverone Field House was the first use of the Nervi System in the United States, combining the use of precast panels with in-situ concrete [Bologna and Neri, 2013]. The Thompson Arena later uses the same construction method. Precast panels made up most of the roof while in-situ concrete filled in the ribs joining the panels. Cast- in-place concrete was used for the foundation, the buttresses, and the edge beams. A movable scaffolding on central rails was used to construct the roof in arch sections. The Nervi System was an economical method developed in Italy to reduce construc- tion time, however, not all the benefits successfully transferred to construction in the United States.

Conclusion

The Leverone Field House and Thompson Arena are a unique pair of structures to be celebrated. These two projects are the last of their kind. The Thompson Arena completed in 1975 was the last legacy Pier Luigi Nervi left in the United States before he passed away in 1979. These two structures perfectly show the evolution of the design process of two similar parabolic vaults, two years apart. The Dartmouth Rauner Special Collections Reference Library contains valuable design calculation packages for both Leverone Field House and Thompson Arena [StudioNervi, 1973], [StudioNervi, 1961]. It also has various correspondences between Studio Nervi and Dartmouth College, some construction documents, and a collection of construction photos for the Leverone Field House [Dartmouth College, 1962b]. Similarly, the MAXXI (Museo nazionale delle arti del XXI secolo, or National Museum of the 21st Century Arts) Archives has a collection of construction photos for the Leverone Field House. In addition, it has some sketches and drawings for both of the projects [Dartmouth College, 1962a]. The shape of the roof in the transverse direction is close to a parabola. Nervi designed the funicular shape of the curve by minimizing the moment under a basic uniform dead and live load. He used an elastic method to analyze the structures, assuming an elementary arch of a certain unit width with fix-fixed supports. The arch was divided into 20 segments and detailed calculations were completed for each of the segments. A hand calculation approximation was made assuming an asym-

51 metric load on a 3-hinged parabolic arch. Using simplified equilibrium methods, the maximum moment was calculated to be within 7% of Nervi's results. A FE model of the elementary arch was also explored, however, the results proved the model to not be a reasonable representation of the behavior of the funicular arch. The construction method of these two projects used the Nervi System which used precast panels with in-situ concrete creating the ribs to join the precast panels. It was a process invented by Nervi and one that he used for many of his long span, thin shell concrete structures. Clues from the construction photos showed that slight changes were made to the construction method from his previous structures with the Nervi System in Rome. The philosophy of his construction method was to shorten the construction time and reduce cost with movable scaffolding on center rails and precast panels. The precast diamond and triangular-shaped panels were produced with a multi-step formwork system to reduce the amount of wooden formwork while keeping a high level of accuracy for the shape of the precast panels. The Leverone Field House was the first project Nervi completed in the United States and Thompson Arena was his last. These two thin-shell parabolic vaults combined some of his best characteristic design elements and construction system. A detailed study of the two structures not only showed his design methods but the refinement and an evolution in design between the two similar structures.
