This project aims to cover the bicycle parking area located above the Van Gogh Est tunnel, near the Gare de Lyon train station in Paris.
One of the main elements of the intervention is the transparent cover at the entrance to the bicycle parking area. The aim is to create an access space protected from adverse weather conditions.
The roof is a wooden structure with an inclined rectangular floor plan, with total dimensions of 5.43mx4.1m and a maximum height of 3.1m.
The membrane that guarantees the watertightness of the roof is made with a single-layer ETFE sheet system.
Technical Base
The roof is supported by a metal structure, where the supports are fixed around the perimeter, to generate specific supports for the aluminium profile with a silver anodised finish that runs around the entire contour.
The ETFE sheet is 200 microns thick and transparent.
In addition, cables are added to reinforce the membrane at the points of greatest stress.
The tensioning is generated inside the perimeter profile, guaranteeing optimum functional and aesthetic tensioning.
The anti-bird system is installed around the perimeter to protect the roof.
