Foundations and Reinforced Concrete Superstructure

Writer: jacengenhariajacengenharia

As the saying goes, nothing develops well without a solid foundation. A building is no exception—it requires a well-executed and stable base to support its entire weight.


The superstructure, often referred to as the skeleton of the building, is another crucial element that provides rigidity and safety. In the case of Azuaga 68, the entire superstructure is made of reinforced concrete, ensuring strength and durability.


The superstructures of the Azuaga 68 and Ernesto 65 developments consist of solid slabs, unlike lightened slabs (which use beams and hollow blocks). Solid slabs offer better acoustic insulation, improved waterproofing between floors, increased structural rigidity, and enhanced safety.
