摘要:The elevator towers in the Art Center "Reina Sofía" stand out in their urban setting due to their transparent partition against the opaque façade of the old "Hospital Provincial de Atocha". The material and functional characteristics of their partition are the topic of this article: - The bracing and fixation system against gravitation and thermic forces through vertical steel ties, special joints and springs in the bases. - The bracing and fixation system against horizontal actions on the corners of each piece. - The function of structural silicone as the only material between panels helping in the redistribution of stress.
