RESEARCH ABSTRACT: -
CHALLENGE: The Existing structure of the terrace is a Pre tensioned slab hence creating a super structure on top of it in Mild steel was a major challenge here. No coloumns can be placed on the slab directly hence a span of 20 Meter had to be covered in single truss beams. the overall heigh could not be gained much because of the existing heights of the semi buildup terrace which led a a low ceiling height of 3Mts. the available heights created the most significant challenge in this design.
