ANÁLISE COMPARATIVA ENTRE QUANTITATIVO DE MATERIAL UTILIZADO EM VIGAS DE AÇO E VIGAS DE MADEIRA PARA PÓRTICOS DE COBERTURA

Abstract

Metal structures have been gaining space in the civil area, it is common to find structures of this model in projects, as it is a product capable of meeting the demand, they stand out for being structures of quick execution, they are formed by industrialized steel elements, and may be assembled at the job site or pre-assembled and transported to the job, it provides organization at the job site and generates almost no material waste. Metal structures provide greater precision to the project, as they are industrialized products, acquire greater conformity in their parts, and steel is a 100% recyclable product. Possessing these qualities it may be feasible to use this model of structure on roofs. The objective of this work was to demonstrate the characteristics of each structural element of a roof, observing the advantages and disadvantages of each type of structure in order to enable its use. For this, a case study and a bibliographical research was carried out, in relation to the structure of a gable roof, composed of colonial tiles, following calculations of the forces acting on this structure and the final weight of the structure, its execution time and your final cost.
