Maillart - Robert Maillart

Swiss structural engineer. Born in Bern. After studying at the Zurich Federal Institute of Technology, he opened a structural design office in Zurich in 1902. He was recognized for his unique Mayard bridge method, a reinforced concrete structure using a three-hinge arch, and built the Schwandbach Bridge and Tabanassa Bridge. In 1910, he invented a beam-free floor slab structure, and actually designed a department store in Zurich using this beam-free structure. He moved to Russia in 1912 to work, but returned to the country after the 1917 revolution, re-establishing offices in Geneva, Bern, and Zurich, and working on numerous structures, mainly in Switzerland. One of his later works was the cement hall at the Swiss National Exhibition.

スイスの構造技術者。ベルンに生まれる。チューリヒ連邦工科大学で学んだのち、1902年にチューリヒで構造設計事務所を開設した。独特の3ヒンジアーチを用いた鉄筋コンクリート構造のマイヤール式架橋方式を発表して認められ、シュバントバッハ橋やタバナサ橋を建設した。1910年には梁(はり)をもたない床スラブ構造を考案し、実際にチューリヒの百貨店を無梁版構造(むりょうばんこうぞう)で設計した。1912年からロシアへ移り仕事をしたが1917年の革命後帰国し、ジュネーブ、ベルン、チューリヒに事務所を再設のうえ、スイスを中心に数多くの構造物を手がけた。晩年の作品にスイス国土博覧会のセメントホールがある。
