The Ministère de la Culture's notice
Historique
Ce bâtiment, réalisé en 1953, a été construit pour servir de hangar agricole sur le modèle des hangars d'aviation. Sa construction se fit au moyen d'une dalle auto-portante brevetée en 1946 par l'entrepreneur belge Alfred Hardy. Ce modèle se compose d'un voile fin de béton armé posé sur un unique appui central. Cette technique affiche des similarités avec celle employée dans des projets datant des années 30 et justifie une attention particulière dans la réflexion sur le patrimoine du 20ème siècle.

History
This building, built in 1953, was constructed to serve as an agricultural hangar on the model of aviation hangars. Its construction was carried out by means of a self-supporting slab patented in 1946 by the Belgian contractor Alfred Hardy. This model consists of a thin reinforced concrete shell resting on a single central support. This technique displays similarities with that employed in projects dating from the 1930s and justifies particular attention in reflection on the heritage of the 20th century.
