Dimensionamento de lajes pré-fabricadas utilizando o software TQS: aplicação em um sobrado residencial

Abstract

This study analyzes the application of the TQS software for the design and structural analysis of precast slabs in buildings. Although the use of precast slabs is a well established practice in civil engineering, the study highlights the importance of TQS in ensuring project accuracy and safety. The justification for this approach is based on the construction efficiency of precast systems, which promote waste reduction and improved quality control. The main objective was to develop a detailed structural project for a two-story house, applying the functionalities of TQS to assess the behavior of precast slabs under different loading conditions, including walls directly supported on beams and cantilever situations. The methodology involved the complete modeling of the structure in the software, load configuration, and compliance with normative parameters. However, the need for software updates to accommodate recent regulatory changes was identified. The conclusions indicate that the use of TQS software for the design and structural analysis of precast slabs can significantly contribute to the development of safe and economically viable projects in civil engineering through detailed modeling and the evaluation of slab behavior under various loading conditions.
