Please describe the project specifications
The project was built 5 years before and the structure and the membrane were in bad conditions, the roof was conceived to protect two interior patios where events are common during the day, and the roofs helped to protect from sun and rain, we've been called by a local company to make the membrane substitution, together we make some changes to the original structure and re-design the lateral protection besides some reinforcement in the main structure that was damaged by corrosion.
What is unique or complex about the project?
The final shape that helps to protect in a better and more beautiful way the patios and the complicated to work in a historic building where the assembly, cleaning and restoration require skilled people to handle the job without incidents, the users enjoy the shadow and become a nice space inside.
