Reuse of steel structures in historic buildings

Steel structure is closely related to the reconstruction of historic buildings and has irreplaceable advantages in this new industry. From the perspective of engineering building reconstruction, steel structure has the advantages of flexibility, strong attraction and strong adaptability. Therefore, it is necessary to become a common and readily available raw material for the reuse of historic buildings. Briefly, steel structure can consider three common specifications of good engineering construction: durable, strong, and beautiful.

Not only historical buildings, but also existing engineering buildings, whether they have historical era use value, artistic value, value or economic value, can be targeted for reuse. If the technical level of engineering building reuse can be improved and the core concept of engineering building reuse can be promoted marketization, it will undoubtedly have high quality sustainable development concept and economic benefits for social and economic development.

In addition, according to the unique characteristics of historic buildings, the actual operation of the building raw materials is also put forward clear regulations. In order to better prevent the destruction of the original site and the raw materials of the building facade, the whole process of the project construction should minimize the harm to the natural environment, and can more freely match the shape of the original project building. The steel structure has the characteristics of integrity, installation and compatibility in the production process. In addition, the damage of the original engineering buildings during the load transfer process is small, so the extensive provisions for the renovation of historic buildings are considered.

Local policies and regulations require that such renovations must be temporary and can be renewed or replaced in the future. Therefore, the architects simply adopted the steel structure and held a "steel structure convention" in the engineering building. In this engineering building, garden steel, I-beam steel, truss structure, tree support points, service platform steel frame structure -- this technology is combined with the unique Italian modernist technology. This piecemeal new technology is decorated in the integrated atmosphere created by the historic buildings. In addition, the steel structure itself is only changed to better integrate into the damage and structural defects of different parts of the historic building, so its bearing mode must be constantly changed. The diversity of functions is mainly reflected in the diversity of structure, which is also the maintenance and foil of the original engineering buildings.
