Use of ABConcept at Bryggervangen
Our in-house developed 3D design tool, ABConcept, was used to conceptualize and test the feasibility of building on top of the existing basement structure.
The 31,000 m² above ground level will be constructed over up to 7 stories, with a load-bearing structure consisting of concrete wall and hollow-core slab elements, partially placed on top of the existing basement structure.
The building will be constructed as a single, unified block up to 24 meters high, which places significant demands on the foundation’s load-bearing capacity. ABConcept was used during the design phase to explore both the possibilities and limitations regarding the load-bearing capacity of the basement structure and the foundation.
The tool was used to test various concepts and building geometries, as well as to calculate and visualize the consequences of different design choices for the building’s final design.
