Engineering
The people who calculate talk to the people who fabricate
Structural design done in-house. The people who calculate talk to the people who fabricate.
How our engineering worksTechnoAço · Metal structures
Metal structures with engineering, schedule and predictability.
From design to erection, one company.
Engineering, fabrication, logistics and erection in the same contract. No one pushes the problem to another supplier.
Schedule with a date. Scope with no gaps.
Foundation, gutters, flashing and transport appear in the proposal, not as a surprise.
Build, expand or modernize with someone who delivers.
Over 20 years in steel for logistics, distribution, industry and commerce in Brazil and Paraguay.

How it works
How your project moves forward
One person follows every stage. You know what's happening and when.
- 01
Briefing
We understand the operation, the site and the schedule.
- 02
Preliminary study
Feasibility, structural system and investment range.
- 03
Engineering
Structural design, detailing and coordination.
- 04
Fabrication
Cutting, welding and painting at our own plant, with inspection.
- 05
Logistics
Numbered pieces ship out in the order they'll be erected.
- 06
Erection
Our own crew, with a lifting and safety plan.
- 07
Handover
Project reviewed with you and complete documentation.
Want to see this path applied to your project?
Send whatever you have: a drawing, a sketch, or just the idea. Our engineering team will respond with the next step.
Steel or concrete
Steel or concrete? It depends on the project.
There's no single right material for everything. There's the right one for your span, your soil and your schedule.
Depends on the spanUp to about 25 meters of span, precast tends to compete well. For larger spans, weak soil, or when the project will grow, steel tends to win. If your case is the other way around, we'll tell you. See the full comparison.
| Criterion | Metal structure | Precast concrete |
|---|---|---|
| Large spans | Excellent | Depends |
| Industrialization | High | Medium |
| Self weight | Lower | Higher |
| Erection speed | High | Depends |
| Future expansion | Simple | More difficult |
| Maintenance | Requires corrosion protection | Lower |

Before you close a deal
Before comparing price, compare what's included
A price per square meter is misleading. Check whether the proposal includes:
7 items- Structural design and ART
- Fabrication and painting or galvanizing
- Transport to the job site
- Erection with equipment
- Who does the foundation
- Gutters, flashing and closures
- Schedule with dates
Our proposal lists every item separately. It's easy to compare. How to compare proposals, item by item
FAQ
What people usually ask
6 direct answersHow much does a metal warehouse cost?
It depends on the span, the height, the roof and the site. A price per square meter without a design is a guess. Send what you have and we'll come back with an investment range and scope. See what changes the cost.
How long until the project is ready?
The schedule comes from the preliminary study, with a date for each stage. Fabricating while the foundation is being built shortens the timeline a lot.
Do you do the foundation?
Yes, or we coordinate with your builder. That's written into the proposal.
Do I need a finished design?
No. We handle everything from the idea to the executive design.
Do you cover my region?
We carry out projects in Brazil and Paraguay.
What files can I send?
Drawings, PDF, DWG, site photos, a report, or just a sketch. Whatever helps us understand the project.
