Hofman, S. Coenders, J.L. Paul, J.C. Faculty Civil Engineering and Geosciences Department Structural Engineering Date 2015-08-20 Abstract The new Transfer Hall in Arnhem is one of the key projects to prepare the Dutch railways for the increased future demands for capacity. UNStudio developed a master plan in 1996 for the station area of which the completion of the Transfer Hall in 2015 will be a final milestone. The Transfer Hall is a merging point of passengers, commercial and social interchanges, containing a multi-use development integrating program and flows of people and vehicles. The design includes a complex geometrical, double-curved shell roof where many functions are combined as well as many other geometrically challenging structural elements. This paper forms the fourth and final paper of a series [1][2][3] and focuses on the developments in digital technology during the project’s design and construction phase and how these developments could impact the structural design of a special project like this.
