Air traffic structures

Hangars

Aircraft hangars count among the most fascinating structures of structural engineering. The long span of the main truss above the door opening, the long-spanning roof support structure and the slender columns and stabilising elements can be realised to best effect with the extreme load-bearing capacity of steel.

Noise protection halls

To reduce noise exposure during engine checks on the ground, systems are required that can handle this enormous exposure level. During trial runs you do not only get extreme noise, but also enormous forces the structure must withstand permanently. That is why steel frameworks are particularly well adaptable to the geometry of these long-span halls and large industrial doors weighing several 100 tonnes.

Hangar doors

Hangar doors, the framework of which is constructed in steel, possess, as space-closing elements, the largest dimensions in length, height and weight. Many years’ experience in steel and crane engineering was the prerequisite for the development of large industrial doors at Donges.

Air terminals

Architectural concepts with exciting designs mark such terminals world-wide, with steel usually playing a major role. A characteristic component of these large-volume structures are the filigree-like steel frameworks combined with large glass elements. The basis of these traffic structures with the highest safety measures are materials that satisfy all requirements.
