Metal structure

What is metal structure?

It is a structure composed of steel and constituted by a group of pieces, that, when united, form a set that gives sustentation to the construction. Steel materials also allow greater freedom of creation for architects and engineers and can be applied to any type of project. Used in large pavilions, supermarkets, shopping malls and distribution centers, metal structures give higher productivity and constructive speed to projects. In comparison with conventional processes, such as masonry, can reduce the execution time of the work by up to 40%. For dialogue with other materials, steel should not be seen as antagonistic to concrete. In fact, they can be applied together in so-called hybrid or mixed structures, where the qualities of each element will be harnessed. Another advantage is the versatility and flexibility that the metallic structures provide to the projects, since they allow gain of space with the creation of large spans and swings without interruption by pillars or structural walls. In addition to all this, steel construction is in perfect harmony with the concept of environmentally sustainable development. Steel is a 100% recyclable material that can run out of the life of the building, return to the furnaces in the form of scrap and become a new steel without loss of quality.

Metal structure
Girder*
Girder*

The girders are trusses designed as main trellis. Its structural function is to serve as support for secondary structure and roofing tiles, to withstand the stresses it undergoes and to guarantee the transversal stability of the building.

Joist
Joist

It is a structural element composed of bars, connected to each other by joints (knots). The loads are applied only at the nodes, there being no transfer of bending moment to the bars, these being subject only to the axial forces.

Z Profile
Z Profile

This element provides lightness and agility in both the production process and the assembly process, as well as the excellent structural response to wind loads.

Lantern*
Lantern*

Covered device, responsible for promoting natural ventilation by the chimney effect, which consists of the exit of the hot air by openings in the roof and entrance of cold air through openings like industrial shutters, gates or windows.

Domes*
Domes*

It is a system that assists in the saving of electrical energy allowing the internal natural illumination of the environment, providing the expansion of the internal natural illumination at a 45º angle by the existence of the prisms.

Gutter, Ruffles and Accessories*
Gutter, Ruffles and Accessories*

Gutter is a constructive element along the eaves of a roof whose purpose is to collect the water that flows from it.

Zipped Tile
Zipped Tile

The Dânica uses the innovative system of zip, in which the tile is manufactured in the own work and tailored for the enterprise. Without seams or holes in the roof, the zipped tile is a total guarantee against leaks, that is, total watertightness of the roof.

Trapezoidal Tile
Trapezoidal Tile

It is used in roofs of marquees, buildings, with small areas and for roofs with high slope. In side or side closure, it can be installed vertically or horizontally.
