In the project Mario Laserna Building of Andes University, we carry out the construction management and supervision of 19 classrooms, 9 computer rooms, library, study group rooms, auditoriums, cafeteria, datacenter, offices and 59 engineering laboratories, such as:

  • Hydraulic and wastewater lab.
  • Laboratory of structural models (reaction plate and vibrating tables),
  • Soil laboratory.
  • Materials and pavement lab.
  • Immersive visualization lab.
  • Wind tunnel lab.
  • Anechoic chamber lab.
  • Laboratory of geotechnical models (centrifuge)

El material predominante del proyecto fue el concreto, por lo cual el diseño estructural y arquitectónico demandó condiciones especiales desde la cimentación, las grandes luces libres en los espacios, voladizos importantes en la fachada y grandes vacíos en espacios interiores. 

Para el caso de las cimentaciones y del laboratorio de modelos estructurales, innovamos con el manejo de concretos masivos con el control de temperatura y de fraguado.

Implementamos controles para la coordinación, construcción y recepción de las diversas instalaciones en los laboratorios.
