Design and detailing of structural steel façade supporting frame made up of triangular panels. The structural frame is supported on foundation pads at ground level and laterally restrained by concrete core walls. Each panel has a unique geometric shape and none of the panels are repeated. Each panel is on a different plane. The structural framing consists of primary triangular frames made up of tubular steel members. Secondary trusses are connected to primary frame members. Finally, the triangular cladding panels are fixed to the structural frame. Detailing completed using Tekla software with API developed in-house.
