ABOUT
The Kalandula Shopping Centre is divided in two buildings, a four storeys shopping and a ten storeys support building.
The shopping building has a regular 200×300 m2 regular shape. Due to its large dimensions, several expansion joints were adopted leading to a set of 22 structural independent bodies. It was adopted a regular column matrix of 12×8 m supporting waffle slabs.
The support building is elliptically shaped with 130.20 m length and 25.20 m width. A central expansion joint was adopted dividing the building in two structural equal shaped independent bodies. It was adopted the same structural solution of the shopping building for the slabs except in the first floor were a solid slab was adopted.
