Structural optimization in industrial renovations
Value engineering seeks to maximize the efficiency of a project. Therefore, reducing the structure's self-weight is an essential strategy in industrial renovations. This allows us to increase the payload capacity without compromising stability. Furthermore, the intelligent use of materials results in direct savings in the total cost of the project.
Careful analysis and calculation methods
First, we reviewed the permanent loads acting on the building. To optimize performance, we used advanced modeling software. However, each change requires rigorous calculation. For example, when replacing heavy elements with metal profiles, the elastic behavior of the structure changes drastically. Therefore, technical monitoring is essential.
Strict adherence to technical standards
Any intervention strictly follows the NBR 6118, which governs the design of concrete structures. Furthermore, we apply appropriate safety coefficients to guarantee the longevity of the structure. In this way, we ensure that the reduction in self-weight never means a risk of collapse. Finally, we validate all changes with high-precision computer simulations.
Regional context and practical application
Many industries are located near Dona Francisca Mountain Range, In Joinville, companies face challenges related to soil and logistics. In this scenario, lightweight structural reinforcement becomes a competitive advantage. Furthermore, we avoid overloading existing foundations. Therefore, value engineering is the ideal tool to efficiently revitalize old warehouses.
Execution focused on efficiency.
During execution, we focus on the precision of welds and connections. This way, we reduce steel waste on the construction site. Furthermore, the WGB technical team conducts constant inspections to ensure compliance with the detailed design. For example, small optimizations to the connecting plates can reduce tons of final weight without compromising safety. Consequently, the renovation timeline is optimized.
