The first structural bamboo observation tower of the world
St. Louis, Misss It could be the headquarters of the first observation tower built with structurally designed bamboo (SEB) y stainless steel. This innovative structure of 34 meters high Keep name The Bowing Tower and has been conceived by Luke SchutteCEO of ReNuTeqtogether with the German architect Sebastian Bildaua world authority in Torres Design.
Inspired by the Inverted catenary curves of the iconic Arco Gateway From St. Louis, the tower aims to pay tribute to the architectural history of the city and become a new urban symbol. Schutte, who leads the largest world installation of structural bamboo, states that the idea was born in his childhood, contemplating the arc during family trips.
Innovative and multifunctional design
The Bowing Tower will include Observation platformsand Event spacea cafeteria and one Architectural Materials Library. The use of SEB combined with stainless steel Not only does it contribute an elegant aesthetic, but also a unprecedented structural resistance.
-The structure allows vertical pedestrian access, and its curved elements are made of treated bamboo, showing a harmony between technology, sustainability and design.
What is structurally designed bamboo?
He structurally designed bamboo (SEB) It is a technical evolution of traditional bamboo, processed to fulfill structural functions in buildings. Renuteq uses a specific species: Guaduaoriginally from Latin America, recognized for being three times stronger than mosa wood (common in Asia) or any laminated wood currently available.
This bamboo is carefully selected and transforms into Specialized facilities in Colombiathen it is transported to United States (St. Charles, Misuri) y Alemania (Frankfurt) For its final manufacture. The result is a high performance renewable materialideal for replacing contaminating constructive elements.
