In recent years, the construction industry in Iran has witnessed a great development in the field of using new technologies. One of these modern technologies that has attracted the attention of engineers, architects and construction project owners is waffle roof.
In Kermanshah province, which has special conditions both geographically and architecturally, the use of this type of roof is expanding in various projects.
In this article, we will fully review the design and implementation of structures with waffle roofs in Kermanshah and we will introduce the advantages, implementation steps, costs and services of Lizan Construction Company in this field.
What is a waffle roof and why is it popular in Kermanshah?
Waffle roof is a type of concrete structural system that brings a combination of strength, beauty, economy and high efficiency at the same time.
In the design and execution of structures with waffle roofs in Kermanshah, special plastic or metal molds are used, which creates a network of square holes during concreting. This structure reduces the dead weight of the structure and increases the resistance against earthquakes; A feature that is very vital for the earthquake-prone region of Kermanshah.
Advantages of using the waffle roof system in Kermanshah
- Increasing resistance to earthquakes: Due to the two-sided nature of the Waffle system, lateral forces are evenly distributed throughout the roof. This feature improves the safety of the building against possible vibrations.
- Reduction of implementation costs: Compared to block beam or flat slab roofs, the amount of concrete and steel used in the design and implementation of structures with waffle roofs in Kermanshah is 30% less. and make concreting much faster.
- Beautiful and modern appearance:Many commercial and office projects in Kermanshah use the waffle roof as part of their interior design; Because its regular grid pattern has a unique effect.
The stages of designing and implementing a structure with a waffle roof in Kermanshah
First stage: preliminary design of the structure
In this step, the engineers of Lizan Construction Company first check the type of building, openings, incoming loads and the location of the project in Kermanshah.
Based on the results of the analysis, the three-dimensional model of the structure is designed by software such as Safe and Etabs to determine the appropriate thickness of the slab and the type of waffle mold.
Second step: choosing the type of waffle mold
Waffle molds are made in two types single-sided and double-sided. In the big projects of Kermanshah, two-sided type is usually used to provide more load bearing and open openings for modern architecture.
Lisaan Construction Company, in cooperation with reliable suppliers, uses resistant and light plastic molds to improve the quality of the waffle roof.
The third stage: reinforcement and molding
At this stage, the rebar network is closed in the workshop according to the executive plans. Then the waffle mold is installed between the rebars to form its special grid pattern. This part of the process is carried out in Kermanshah by the executive team of Lizan company with high precision and according to the current standards of Iran.
The fourth stage: concreting and processing
After ensuring the strength and integrity of the forms, concrete is poured with the appropriate ratio of raw materials. Concrete is processed in a wet manner to maximize its final strength.
The design and execution of a structure with a waffle roof in Kermanshah is particularly important at this stage, because the weather conditions of the region have a great effect on the drying of concrete.
Step 5: Opening templates and final payment
After the final setting of the concrete, the waffle molds are carefully opened and the underside of the roof, which looks like a beehive, is ready for painting or painting.
Advantages and technical characteristics of waffle roofs compared to other roofs
In the process of designing and implementing a structure with a waffle roof in Kermanshah, it should be known that this system offers more advantages compared to conventional roofs, including:
- Removal of middle beams in long spans
- Reduction of concrete consumption due to the removal of unnecessary parts
- Increase of sound and thermal insulation
- Easier passage of electrical and mechanical installations
- Ability to implement all kinds of modern lighting in indoor spaces
Lisaan construction company, using the latest engineering knowledge and special equipment, uses all these features in its projects to achieve the best results for the client.
