The union of steel and concrete in the bridges construction and other buildings has been consolidated in the civil construction industry through countless successful projects that demonstrate the wide benefits of constructions of this nature.
In some cases, the use of metal structures in bridges, overpasses and walkways is no longer a viable alternative to become the first option due to the reduction of the final cost, execution time and less effort on the foundations.

Brazil is one of the largest steel producers in the world, and yet it is common to find cultural resistance in the use of metal structures in the construction of bridges


Some advantages of using welded beams on bridges, overpasses and walkways:
  • done DURABILITY
  • done PERFORMANCE AGILITY
  • done STANDARDIZATION
  • done RESISTANCE
  • done AESTHETICS

PRODUCTION OF UP TO 600 METERS OF WELDED BEAM / DAY
In a mixed structure the tensile strength of the steel beams and the compressive strength of the concrete are explored. The concrete slab interacts with the metal beams through shear connectors. In this scenario the possibility of economic gains is high by the establishment of leaner and lighter structures.
FAM works in the manufacture of welded beams and metal structures already with reinforcements, shear connectors, connections, etc. Decades of investment in high technology and specialized labor have allowed FAM to dispose among the main manufacturers of welded profile in Brazil.
