Cylindrical shells in Colombian architecture in the 20th century.

In 1946, cylindrical shells began to be designed in Colombia as a roof solution for industrial buildings, mainly replicating structural forms used in Europe and the United States since the beginning of the 20th century. This article describes and analyzes the first three projects of importance in Co...

description In 1946, cylindrical shells began to be designed in Colombia as a roof solution for industrial buildings, mainly replicating structural forms used in Europe and the United States since the beginning of the 20th century. This article describes and analyzes the first three projects of importance in Colombia, in which cylindrical shells were used through ingenious constructive resources. It defends the hypothesis that this initiative sought to take advantage of both the technical advantages and spatial attributes of these shells with a comprehensive view on the relationship between architecture, construction, and structure. Using a qualitative research method, available planimetric information was analyzed, and contrasted with buildings that are still standing and in service. The conclusions demonstrate how this type of structures, with their attributes and limitations, became a common resource in Colombian architecture in the second half of the 20th century.

Desde 1946 se empezaron a diseñar en Colombia láminas cilindricas como solución de cubierta para edificios industriales, principalmente, replicando formas estructurales empleadas desde los inicios del nuevo siglo en Europa y Estados Unidos. Este artículo describe y analiza los primeros tres proyectos de importancia construidos en el país (mercado de Girardot, estación de autobuses y sede de Volkswagen en Bogotá) donde se emplearon láminas cilindricas haciendo uso de ingeniosos recursos constructivos; se considera como hipótesis que esta iniciativa buscaba aprovechar tanto las ventajas técnicas como espaciales que ellas brindaban, dentro de una visión integral de la relación entre arquitectura, construcción y estructura. Como herramienta de investigación cualitativa se aplicó un análisis de la información planimétrica disponible, contrastada con los edificios que todavía se conservan. Las conclusiones demuestran la manera en que este tipo de estructuras, con sus atributos y limitaciones, se convirtieron en un recurso común en la arquitectura colombiana de la segunda mitad del siglo XX. A partir de 1946, na Colombia, teve início o desenho de estruturas laminares cilíndricas como solução de cobertura para prédios industriais, principalmente, replicando formas estruturais usadas desde princípios do novo século na Europa e nos Estados Unidos. Este artigo descreve e analisa os três primeiros projetos mais relevantes construídos no país (mercado de Girardot, estação de ônibus e sede da Volkswagen em Bogotá), nos quais foram usadas estruturas laminares cilíndricas com a ajuda de engenhosos recursos construtivos. Considera-se como hipótese que essa iniciativa buscava aproveitar tanto as vantagens técnicas quanto espaciais que elas brindavam, dentro de uma visão completa da relação entre arquitetura, construção e estrutura. Como ferramenta de pesquisa qualitativa, foi utilizada uma análise da informação planimétrica disponível, contrastada com os prédios que ainda estão conservados. As conclusões demonstram a maneira em que esse tipo de estruturas, com seus atributos e limitações, se converteu em um recurso comum na arquitetura colombiana da segunda metade do século XX.
