In February 2022, architects Chartier Dalix asked us to help them design a pavilion for the Biennale de l'architecture. Based on an architectural sketch and after several discussions, we presented a temporary pavilion made from recycled or re-used materials. This pavilion will be reassembled near the Olympic Aquatic Center during the summer of 2024. Having been well received, we plan to keep it permanently in the Plaine Saulnier ZAC.
A provisional surface foundation was laid in reinforced concrete. It took the form of a dry stone wall containing topsoil for growing plants. No mortar or cement was used in the construction of this wall. This biodiverse wall is a world first!
The wall was then covered as thinly as possible to house an exhibition.
Timeframe: mid-February to end of April 2022 for design with the architects, technical studies, fabrication and assembly.
The stone layout was done by the Chartier Dalix agency. We integrated their IFC model into tekla to design the structure.The formwork and reinforcement plans were drawn up using tekla.
The steel structure follows the shape of the roof's chips. It's a light but technical framework made up of curved I-beams and unstuck box beams.
Thanks to tekla, we were able to develop the cut-to-size sheets for fabrication.
The layout of the roof was done on tekla.
