Technologically Advanced Engineering Solutions

Therme Delta-X (DTX) is the office for structural engineering and structural analysis within Therme Group, with its headquarters in Stuttgart (Germany). It develops technologies to construct the buildings of the future, creating a new environment of health and wellbeing.

Theoretical and Technical Expertise

Since its first project 20 years ago, Delta-X’s engineers have brought the Therme concept to reality with highly complex structural engineering solutions completed to the greatest degree of safety. To achieve this, the Delta-X team uses its expert theoretical knowledge alongside the latest software tools in numerical simulation, earthquake engineering, modelling, optimisation and nonlinear structural behaviour.Delta-X’s ground-breaking structural solutions are also exquisite works of art. Therme Group facilities’ vast retractable roofs, curved façades and awe-inspiring structures in steel and glass were all realised by Delta-X.

Sophisticated Numerical Simulation for Structural Behaviour

One of the many things that makes Therme buildings unique is their complex and elegant engineering. Delta-X realises these structures through advanced design solutions that improve building transparency – referring to a reduction of materials, resulting in lightweight structures and slim profiles that allow for a broader scope of use.

The experienced team of engineers at Delta-X transform textural and sculptural ideas into highly sophisticated numerical simulations that are then used to analyse structural behaviour.

In this way, Delta-X creates optimised structures with slim and elegant forms that meet the complex designs developed by Therme ARC’s architects. All this is achieved while maintaining structural integrity with zero compromise on the robustness and safety of Therme buildings.

Therme Bucharest: An Engineering Tour de Force

Therme Bucharest is home to the largest retractable roof ever constructed in a seismic zone, weighing 150 tonnes and extending across some 900 sq. metres. To ensure the stability and safety of the entire structure, Delta-X were responsible for the structural planning of all steel and glass elements. The epitome of sophisticated engineering, the facility can withstand earthquakes that exceed nine on the Richter scale.
