Construction of an Ossuary within the Church Complex of St. Nicholas in Vranje
The design solution completely retains the existing dimensions of the ossuary, with the fact that the base for the belfry is formed on the west side, and two smaller porches are formed on the south and north sides that emphasize the entrance and exit to the chapel. Also, on the north side, a staircase is formed along the level of the terrain, which connects the ossuary with the chapel and bell tower. The chapel was designed as an object of massive structural assembly, with load-bearing reinforced concrete columns and beams, while the solid brick walls contribute to the load-bearing capacity of the perimeter facade planes. Cerclages are provided in the planes of masonry walls as wall stiffening elements. The roof structure is made of cham wood according to the detail and static calculation given in the graphic and numerical documentation in the project, and it is covered with folded tiles.
