Stage 5-
The bracing was cut to size then was welded into place between the girts and secondary railing channel

Stage 4-
The two rafters which are attached to the top of the circular hollow section and the i beams, were cut to size then welded togther to make an i beam. The rafters were then attached to the top of the columns.

Stage 3-
The secondary channel railing was cut to size in 1 metre sections then welded to the girts

Stage 2-
The 10 girts were bent to shape to curve around the circular hollow section, then they were welded to the columns.

Stage 1-
Consisted of cutting the steel into sections, then welded together, firstly the i beam then the sections were welded to a plate to create the curve.

Development work

These sketches represent more refined ideas for the construction of the major project how every element connects together or an idea of how they are connected together.
Some sizes are also included some are just standard sizes but some are referenced from steel spanning tables etc. Mostly I started off with the initial sketch of the detail then I got specific sizes for all the elements then redrew the detail again. Included in the pictures below are sketches of the following:

Foundations details:



























Wall details:











































Roofing details:





























Steel connection details:

























The sketches directly above are views at either end of the structure and how the roof elements connect to the wall members.
To get the specific sizes for all the members I referred to lecture notes, reference files on DSO on projects, also steel product brochures as well as other projects that are portal frame construction.
