The Zalmhaven tower An investigation on the feasibility of prefab concrete in a high rise building Literature study Sven ten Hagen Student number: 1364049 Date: 29-11-2012 Author: Sven ten Hagen [email protected] Graduation committee: Prof.ir. R. Nijsse ABT/ Delft University of Technology, chairman Prof.ir. A.Q.C. van der Horst BAM Infraconsult/ Delft University of Technology Dr.ir.drs. C.R. Braam Delft University of Technology Ing. H.J Hoorn Zonneveld ingenieurs Ir. D.C. van Keulen Ingenieursstudio DCK/ Delft University of Technology Preface This literature study is the first part of my master thesis research at the faculty of Civil Engineering and Geosciences at Delft University of Technology. With this thesis I will conclude my study Structural Design at the section Building and Structural Engineering. The literature study contains the most important aspects that are required to design a 200 meter high prefabricated tower and the accompanying construction methodology. In report 2 of the literature study, the floor plans, shear deformation calculation, calculations made by Zonneveld ingenieurs and the Fault Tree Analysis are combined. The research report contains the actual design of the Zalmhaven tower and construction methodology. I would like to thank the graduation committee for their time, guidance, knowledge and enthusiasm. Without their effort I would not be able to present the reader this report. I would also like to thank Zonneveld ingenieurs for providing me the opportunity to graduate at a first class engineering company. I sincerely thank all the employees for their support and guidance.
