In the studio we are adapting construction methods towards green architecture, mainly for installations but also for structural works, to reduce the Co2 emissions into the atmosphere, and reduce energy costs used to heat, cool, ventilate or cook, and at the same time trying to incorporate alternative and renewable energies.
Specifically one of the systems we are studying and offering to clients is the geothermal energy.
Manuel Cabrera is working on a social housing project in Algeria using the industrial system of “tunnel formwork”. The project is running in conjunction with two companies in the Marina Baja area who are specialists in carrying out such works.
The tunnel formwork system is a building method that allows the casting in one operation of reinforced concrete floor slabs along with load-bearing walls on a daily cycle, making it very efficient.
The Algerian government program for the coming years is to build 3 million such dwellings.
Manuel Cabrera has experience in developing this type of housing when during the boom of the 60s and 70s in the big dormitory towns around Madrid and Barcelona large residential developments were built using this system.
With more than 50 years experience in the building, architecture and planning industry, our team includes specialists in the fields of architectural design, construction, planning, structural reports, valuations and general advice.
Whatever the size of the project, we apply the highest professional standards. In addition, our team is always readily accessible to ensure that your job runs smoothly and you are fully satisfied with the end result.
