Since 1995, we have designed and produced composite steel and concrete structures supported by our engineers. Our experience allows us to be a point of reference for engineers and companies working in this sector. Experience and competence allowed us to design innovative and target oriented products aiming to enhance the building sector. For this reason, we developed and patented the building system called MTR® System.
MTR® System - The innovative choice for the advanced construction site
The MTR® System represents the most reliable system belonging to the composite steel-concrete structures. The system comprises three types of trusses (type A, T and C). It is used to build horizontal structures and it can partially or totally replace the main and the secondary beams.
Thus preserving the setting of a typical building site for concrete structures, we do not use beams made on site, but only prefabricated composite steel beams which are delivered to the construction site ready for being assembled. An industrialisation process for the certified building site and for “error-free” structures. Many advantages and high safety for the client, the structural designer and the contractor.
What is the MTR® System?
The MTR® System is composed of three different types of trusses having their pertaining calculation system for the designing process:
● MTR® A Beam: is self-supporting during the assembly and casting phase of the floor. It has a steel bottom plate.
● MTR® T beam: has to be shuttered and propped during the assembly and casting phase of the floor. It does not have the bottom plate and it is completely embedded in the cast-in place-concrete.
● MTR® C Beam: is self-supporting during the assembly and casting phase of the floor. It has a concrete bottom plate.
● SOFTWARE MTR®: is the application software for the calculation and designing of the MTR® Beams. It is implemented in the specific production process used by Metal.Ri.
● Technical Consultation: a team of engineers gives technical and calculation support to the designer.
The MTR® System can be designed to suit any purpose such as residential, commercial, tertiary and industrial buildings.
Request a technical consultation: one of our engineers will become your reference MTR® designer and will support you in any activity required.
The designer will carry out the tests of details of the MTR® elements. He will also develop the mathematical model in three dimensions of the entire structure using the calculation software that is able to interact with the application Software MTR®.
A perfect synergy between our designers and your needs to offer you the best technical, practical and economical solutions.
The advantages of the MTR® System
1. Execution speed
The speed and ease of assembly of the structures reduce costs by 60% and the time required to build the floors: MTR® A by 70% | MTR® T by 50% | MTR® C by 70%
2. Eco-sustainability
Reduced on-site processing and use of timber:
MTR® A by 100% | MTR® T by 60% | MTR® C by 100%
3. Construction site safety
Prefabrication of slabs with MTR® beams improves safety on the construction site by 60%.
4. Product guarantee and seismic resistance
The MTR® beams are produced in the factory and arrive at the construction site ready for installation. This guarantees 100% certainty for the client, the structural designer and the contractor
5. Architectural freedom and versatility
The reduction of the number of columns and their section and the increasing the column spacing, permit to optimize the interior spaces and realize complex architectural structures.
6. Reduction of concrete
The section of the MTR® Beams are smaller than the ones in traditional reinforced concrete beams.
7. Fire resistance
The steel, coated or incorporated in the concrete, guarantees the resistance of the structure in case of fire, without additional costs and processing.
