Rideal show area (shopping)

This building is located in Brougham street in Geelong. The function of this building is a shopping and showing area for electrical products. The main structure of this building is steel structure. Columns and beams are connected to each other by using bolts and they have covered with color skin for additional protection.
There is a large span without any columns inside and load transfer to the columns in the corner through the beams that created frames on the ceiling.

Two different type of beams have used in this area to support loads. As it is obviouse in this photo beam has connected to the columns and has become more durable by Hauching to increase the stability of structure. The roof has covered with insulation safety mesh which is located between outside skin and inside beams. Metal skin sheet is also added to this insulation to increase its influence.
