Structural system for multi-storey precast concrete buildings
Brooklyn is the anti-seismic structural system that widens and raises precast building horizons. Through a precast frame with rigid connections, with vertical forces opposed to the bending moment, it creates a mutual beam-bracketscolumn connection bond, that surmounts the simple support evolving into a fixed joint. It is a hidden system into structural widths, with dry assembly, and brackets simply inserted into columns. It also permits higher load capacity on structural elements and/or longer spans between vertical load-bearing structures.
BROOKLYN SUSPENDED VERSION
- one or more cables for each beam
- free cable setting and different external force administration
- partial or integral post-compression frame
- single or multiple spans
- bracket with one or two corbels
- for medium-long spans
BROOKLYN CABLE-STAY VERSION
- one or more tendons for each end-beam
- active (pre-tensioned) or passive tendons
- tendons effectiveness varies according to their inclination
- bracket with one or two corbels
- for short-medium spans
