Abstract


This corporation manufacturers parts and accessories for the motor industry. The factory consists of three naves, a building with the bar and entrance control, and the pressing tools building. All the buildings were designed on a 5 x 5 m module, and allowance was made for possible extensions. Naves 1, 2 and 3 have hyperbolic paraboloid roof elements, of 10 x 10 m; the bar is covered with a 5 x 5 m inverted paraboloid. The pressing tools building has a metalic structure, and is separated from the other buildings to protect them from the vibrations produced by the pressing operations. Both the chosen site, the type of construction and other details have been carefully studied, and the overall result is correspondingly successful.
