I - STRUCTURE

The whole structure of the building is designed in accordance with Portuguese and European Engineering Regulations. The main structure is therefore constituted by reinforced concrete slabs, supported by beams and pillars. The foundations are constituted by bases for every pillar, placed at the necessary depth to reach firm ground; the set of bases is reinforced by foundations, beams and a slab. All retaining walls are made of reinforced concrete, and the foundations are built on firm ground, taking special care with drainage to ensure all surfaces in contact with the ground remain waterproof.

II - CONSTRUCTION

Interior Walls

These are made of good quality brick. The first layer is constituted of concrete blocks. To avoid humidity a hi-load damp-proof course is placed between the layer of concrete blocks and the bricks.

Exterior Walls

These are constituted of two skins of bricks with a cavity between. This cavity will be partially filled with a thermal insulation of polyurethane projected foam (+/-3cm layer). The base of the wall is executed with concrete blocks and between these and the bricks a membrane is placed to avoid humidity.
