OVERVIEW
• Terminal for the TGV trains (high-speed trains)
connecting the airport to the city of Lyon, which is 30 km
to the south
• An addition to the airport built to serve TGV trains on
the LGV Rhône-Alpes
• The Lyon region is located in Alps, in the mid-southeastern portion of France.
• The main hall accommodates ticket offices, retail shops, restaurant facilities and access to and from the airport via a 180 meter long gallery.
• The station has six tracks. The two central tracks are isolated to permit trains to pass through the station at a full speed of 300 kilometers per hour.
• Above the tracks, a 300 meter long passenger concourse allows for easy access to the platforms.

BACKGROUND: ABOUT
THE ARCHITECT
• Born July 28, 1951 in Valencia, Spain
• Architect, sculptor, and structural engineer
• Early career: Calatrava worked as an engineer and began to enter architectural competitions. He began with a series of bridge projects that established his international reputation. In the mid 1980s, he began working on large-scale public projects while exhibiting his sculptures.
• Calatrava has won many awards, including the Gold Medal of the Institute of Structural Engineers, the Auguste Perret UIA Prize, and the AIA Gold Medal.
• Completed dozens of buildings and bridges around the world, and has many more in the works. The architect is known for his highly expressive, curving, organic structures, and Lyon Station is no exception.

BACKGROUND: PROJECT’S
IMPORTANCE TO ARCHITECT
• The railway station was built relatively early in his professional career and is very representative of his sculptural style.
• It appears to be expressive of a bird, symbolizing flight with the two main “wing” arches coming together at the bird's “beak”.
• However, Calatrava insists that it is actually inspired more by the shape of the human eye.
• Before the station’s construction, he designed a sculpture representing an eye, which later served as inspiration for the station’s design.
• “I never thought of a bird, but more of the research that I am sometimes pretentious enough to call sculpture”.
![Page 10: Lyon-Satolas railway and airport stationfaculty-legacy.arch.tamu.edu/anichols/index_files/courses/arch631/c… · SANTIAGO CALATRAVA 1994 BY ART, AVI, RUTWIK, JORDAN . OVERVIEW •](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022050408/5f8530eafe3d78777e203173/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The station is widely thought of as a symbol of a bird, fitting to the theme of flight at
the airport.
![Page 11: Lyon-Satolas railway and airport stationfaculty-legacy.arch.tamu.edu/anichols/index_files/courses/arch631/c… · SANTIAGO CALATRAVA 1994 BY ART, AVI, RUTWIK, JORDAN . OVERVIEW •](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022050408/5f8530eafe3d78777e203173/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
However, this is the inspiration for Calatrava. This sketch of his human eye
sculpture illustrates the profile that he wanted to achieve with the rail station.
![Page 12: Lyon-Satolas railway and airport stationfaculty-legacy.arch.tamu.edu/anichols/index_files/courses/arch631/c… · SANTIAGO CALATRAVA 1994 BY ART, AVI, RUTWIK, JORDAN . OVERVIEW •](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022050408/5f8530eafe3d78777e203173/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
FEATURES
• Large entry gallery is distinct and serves to subdivide user groups and serve as an entry marker connecting Train and Airport programs
• The expressive railway station hall is built astride an existing TGV track beside the Lyon airport.
• People have different experiences walking through the station based on their destinations, either the railroad below ground or the airport above.
Arriving from the airport, one enters the main hall at the “back of the bird” at an elevated level. Travelers descend through a series of escalators into the main concourse. Here the wings spread out on either side above the railway tracks, and more escalators move travelers down to the platform below ground level.
Arriving by train and walking to the airport, travelers gradually ascend from the excavated train tracks to the main concourse above and through the gallery to the airport.

FEATURES
• The expressiveness of Calatrava's structure is seen inside the
building as much as outside with two large cantilevered balconies
that penetrate the interior space.
![Page 16: Lyon-Satolas railway and airport stationfaculty-legacy.arch.tamu.edu/anichols/index_files/courses/arch631/c… · SANTIAGO CALATRAVA 1994 BY ART, AVI, RUTWIK, JORDAN . OVERVIEW •](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022050408/5f8530eafe3d78777e203173/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
FEATURES: RAILWAY COVER
• The station is positioned astride the reinforced concrete railway
cover. This adjoining concrete service building is fitted with a steel
and glass curtain wall overlooking the main hall.

FEATURES: RAILWAY COVER
• Built with a dense network of white concrete beams and
rhomboid-shaped glass skylights, this structure covers more than
half a kilometer of the six railways.
![Page 18: Lyon-Satolas railway and airport stationfaculty-legacy.arch.tamu.edu/anichols/index_files/courses/arch631/c… · SANTIAGO CALATRAVA 1994 BY ART, AVI, RUTWIK, JORDAN . OVERVIEW •](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022050408/5f8530eafe3d78777e203173/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

FEATURES: RAILWAY COVER
• The ribs of the ceiling rest on inclined pillars that bifurcate.
•Its ceiling is transversely crossed by the large
triangular-shaped floor of the station.
• Because of the density of the
concrete beam network and its
longitudinal character, the railway
cover resembles a tunnel lit by
natural light.

MATERIAL/PROGRAM/DE
SIGN SYNTHESIS
• Designed to tie the light entryway to the the rigid linear
components of the railway line and Airport connector bridge
• Calatrava used steel and glazing to achieve a sense of lightness
and openness in the main lobby
• The lobby is free of any major program, keeping it an open
space.

LATERAL LOADING
• Lateral loading is not an extreme design concern.
• France is part of the Eurasian tectonic plate and is not along a
major fault line. Lyon is not noted for its Earthquake activity as it
seldom suffers from large-scale quakes.
• Seismic loading is negligible, but not totally absent. It is rare for
Lyon, France to experience earthquakes that cause significant
damage.
• The climate of the region is subject to cold winds from the Alps
and warm breezes from the Mediterranean. There is moderate
precipitation year round and no extreme wind or snow loads.

LATERAL LOAD RESISTING
SYSTEM
• Lateral loads are applied to the face of the glazing and create a
high pressure region between the glazing system and the
cantilevered roof portion.
• The high pressure region causes uplift and an overturning
moment about the base of the cantilevered roof portion.
• The four cross-braced steel arches and the the exterior trusses
resist the lateral load and overturning moment about the base of
the façade.

SOIL AND FOUNDATION
• The soil in this area is generally granite with a mixture of shingle
with clay and layered stones on the hillsides.
• This soil condition is stable to support the structure and allows
the foundation to be relatively simple.
• The foundation system used is isolated concrete spread
footings.
• The front concrete housing of the main steel arches (the “beak”)
has a modified pad footing with a saw-tooth base

COMPOSITE
CONNECTIONS
• The Main Lobby is primarily a steel structure composed of four
arches which are connected to an isolated reinforced concrete
foundation
•The outer steel arches are connected to the foundation through a
concrete housing
•The inner steel arches are supported by concrete shear walls on
one side and a housing on the other.
• Exposed structural steel members are cased with concrete as
they join the foundation or floor of the structure.
• Concrete casing at the joints makes the structure rigid.
