Abstract and Figures

One of the biggest European structures of the turn of the century, is being erecred in international cooperation in Budapest. The project is a pioneering example of globalisation. Despite all initial difficulties. there is no doubt that this is the way to go. The scale of the project is best described by the floor spaces of the first and the second phase: 120,000 sq metre and 88.000 sq metre. respectively: The characteristic column grid of 8 m x 16 m, the constant and variable load of 20-25 kN/sq metre beyond the own weight of the load-bearing structure and rhe approoved 71 cm overall depth posed a tough task for the structural designers.
