BASIC Beam is the most versatile type for span and sections. |
The self-bearing composite steel truss and concrete NPS® Basic beam is recommended for structures with large spans, residential and industrial buildings, and for infrastructure.
The metal structure, made of structural steel pursuant to Standard UNI EN 10025-2 and with EN 1090-1 CE marking is composed of:
Metal structure | Made of structural steel in conformity with UNI Standard UNI EN ISO 10025-2 |
Footing | Structural steel S355J0 plate in conformity with UNI Standard UNI EN ISO 10025-2 with support function for the ceiling and formwork for the casting formwork |
Casting framework | C25/30 when not otherwise noted by the designer |
Self-supporting | Yes. NPS® BASIC Beam bears itself and the ceiling that rests on it, already from the moment it is placed on the column (1st phase), already before the formwork cast (2nd phase) |
Welding | Using metal active gas welding (Process UNI EN ISO 4063-135) |
Mechanical resistance to fire ( R ) | To be defined according to project requirements |
Standards referenced | In the 1st phase Eurocode 3 In the 2nd phase Eurocode 4 For anti-seismic and Eurocode 8 |
Design | Elaborated with the System calculation procedure conforming to the current Standard, and signed by a qualified technician. |
