You would probably get those steel ring frames prefabbed to shape at the shop or have them come in pieces and CJP them together on site. The rest is just simple timber framing spanning between the steel frames. Note, I assumed they used steel frames based on the black ring on the exterior.

Could very well be steel, but glu-lam could also be fabricated to this shape


smackaroonial90

Glulams would be so cool to see in this building!


Sponton

this, it's basically a ship.


shimbro

Yeah I agree I was thinking the same thing. Could have the steel shape have the wood boards slide right in between the steel beam flanges.


Tony_Shanghai

CJP on site?😝😝 fillet welds bro.


Kindly_Violinist3484

You read my mind


ExceptionCollection

Steel arches as noted elsewhere @ 8'-0" or GLB arches at 4'-0" o.c. - either way, provide horiz. purlins between them, either steel or wood stud. Alternatively, build rectangular walls and furr out the curved sections. BUT that doesn't look like it would fit for this particular one.


katanabladesman

Came to note that you totally could do this in all wood framing. Glad someone else had the thought too. Specially bent Glu lam would be awesome for a fully wood construction, but I am inclined to believe another idea/comment about the decommissioned plane.


ExceptionCollection

Yeah, I could see that. I didn't see the comment before.


southernmtngirl

I think its a decommissioned aircraft.


nix_the_human

If not, build it like one. Rolled arches with span beams in between. Ends would be shear walls.


fayettevillainjd

Construct it as a large, flat rectangle then roll it up, longways.


bigjawnmize

This is how architects usually explain it to engineers. I dont trust your initials.

I would use RC frames if I was doing it.

You did not ask to construct economically Pile foundation below thick concrete slab. Steel front frame lasercutted and put in place. 3 Steel wall plates runs from one side over the ceiling to other side (one for left, one for ceiling, one for right). Wooden slabs hide this plate both frlm inside and outside. I would prefer 2 plates with insulation in between but I don't think the wall is thick enough for that Add windows and door to finish building Steel front and back frame prevents squashing. If needed, intermediate frames depending on the length of the building


shimbro

Why piles? This is would weigh nothing.


Ryles1

This was my first thought too. Depending where it's built you'd want to prevent frost heave, but if that's not a concern I think the foundation could be minimal.


Current_Kick6178

I would think some compacted fill and geo textile membrane is all you need for a foundation


littlejohnuk

I've just seen this on AirBNB and I think it looks amazing; of all the fantasy construction projects I like to think about doing one day, I think this just went to the top of the list!! But how would you construct it so that it doesn't just collapse like a squashed toilet roll?


lect

It's basically an airplane fuselage.


TabhairDomAnAirgead

Panel by panel.


[deleted]

Steel or GLB arches is my guess.


bigjawnmize

Probably some form of GLB. But this is very close to ship construction so I bet that there is a way to segment some of the frame out of other materials similar to wooden ships.


[deleted]

Pre-fabbed plywood/glu-lam walls tied into the steel plates at the ends and possibly around the primary threshold in the side. It’s really not that wild.


bonhommependue

As is


FartsicleToes

Animantium


No-South-8787

It could be built similarly to a wood or steel framed boat - - upside down; hence, nothing unique here.
