Tridilosa: Technical Specifications, Load Capacities, and Structural Advantages
If you are working on a project where reducing structural depth or self-weight is critical, request a technical datasheet from a licensed Tridilosa fabricator with your specific live load requirements. tridilosa especificaciones técnicas
For those unfamiliar, Tridilosa is a three-dimensional spatial structure (a tubular space frame) embedded inside a concrete slab. It uses steel tubes (top and bottom chords) connected by diagonal webs, all encased in concrete. This combination creates a slab that is significantly lighter and stronger than a solid concrete section. This combination creates a slab that is significantly
A deep dive into the technical specifications of Tridilosa. Discover its structural geometry, steel grades, concrete interaction, load tables, and why it outperforms traditional flat slabs. When engineers think of structural slabs for industrial flooring, parking garages, or heavy-duty mezzanines, they often default to traditional reinforced concrete or steel decking. However, Tridilosa offers a unique hybrid alternative. When engineers think of structural slabs for industrial
| Parameter | Typical Specification Range | Notes | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | | 20 cm to 120 cm (8" to 48") | Determined by span and live load. | | Lower Node Spacing | 50 cm x 50 cm to 100 cm x 100 cm | Creates the square grid pattern. | | Upper Node Spacing | 50 cm x 50 cm to 100 cm x 100 cm | Aligns perfectly with lower nodes. | | Diagonal Web Angle | 35° to 55° relative to horizontal | Optimizes shear transfer. | | Concrete Cover | 3 cm (bottom) / 4 cm (top) minimum | For fire and corrosion protection. | 2. Material Specifications Unlike a pure steel truss, Tridilosa relies on the synergy between steel and concrete.
Let’s break down the raw technical specifications you need to know for your next calculation sheet. The "Tridilosa" system is defined by its tridimensional geometry rather than solid mass.
