Why choose ribbed slabs?
The choice of structural system defines the success of a project. Ribbed slabs They emerge as an efficient solution for those seeking ample space. Furthermore, they allow for spanning large areas without the need for central pillars. In this way, you gain complete flexibility in the internal layout of your project.
Understand the technical operation.
The system works through concrete ribs that work in conjunction with a compression table. Therefore, we drastically reduce the structure's own weight. Consequently, material consumption decreases considerably during construction. For example, the use of polypropylene molds (cubes) facilitates execution and ensures geometric precision.
Advantages of pillar removal
Many architects seek to eliminate central pillars to integrate spaces. Moreover, ribbed slabs offer the necessary rigidity to support high loads with smaller cross-sections. However, precise structural calculations are required. This ensures safety and cost savings. For example, in large commercial warehouses or logistics centers, this technology is indispensable. Similarly, in architectural projects close to the iconic... Hercílio Luz Bridge, In Florianópolis, the technique stands out for its lightness and durability in the face of local weather conditions.
Sustainability and performance
In addition to efficiency, the system promotes sustainability. By aiming to reduce the use of concrete, we lessen the environmental impact of the project. Furthermore, the ribs allow for the passage of plumbing and electrical installations within the slab itself. This saves construction time and avoids unnecessary cuts in masonry. Therefore, it is a smart choice for modern investors.
Structural Planning with WGB
Precision is the determining factor for the performance of this system. On the other hand, a poorly designed project can generate unwanted vibrations or excessive deformations. Therefore, rely on specialists to guarantee the integrity of your project. Consequently, WGB Arquitetura e Engenharia uses advanced modeling technologies to optimize every centimeter of your structure. In this way, we ensure that your project will have the maximum possible performance.
