It is in this context that our partnership with Forma Solai S.r.l. was born, a leading company in the prefabrication sector based in the province of Pavia, already presented at the last edition of SAIE Bologna, with the mission of offering increasingly efficient, safe and optimised solutions for the building sector.
MTR beam and Forma floor slab combinations
Thanks to the combination of Metal.Ri’s patented MTR® System technology and Forma’s floor slabs, it is possible to complete the prefabrication of horizontal structures, significantly reducing traditional on-site processing and accelerating the process of construction industrialisation.
This innovative approach not only optimises construction times, but also improves the quality and safety of building structures, making the system functional for both construction companies and designers.
The solutions offered are modular and versatile, allowing adaptation to specific project requirements:
- MTR® A beam and predalle slab with Forma concrete soffit;
- MTR® A beam and predalle slab with Laterforma brick soffit;
- MTR® T beam on predalle slab with Forma concrete soffit;
- MTR® T beam on predalle slab with Laterforma brick soffit.
This variety of combinations represents the perfect synthesis of innovation and functionality, making it simpler to construct any type of building, whether residential, tertiary or industrial.
Jobsite benefits for construction companies
The partnership between Metal.Ri and Forma brings a series of concrete advantages for construction companies, including:
- Reduced construction time compared to traditional systems;
- Lower labour requirements on site;
- Near-total elimination of props and formwork;
- Predictable and reduced costs, simplifying the financial management of the project;
- Greater on-site safety thanks to lightweight prefabricated solutions.
These advantages allow companies to optimise their workflow and complete projects in record time.
Opportunities for designers
For designers, the Metal.Ri–Forma partnership opens up new architectural and structural possibilities:
- Larger structural grids, with spans of up to 30 metres;
- Maximum architectural freedom, with flexible distribution of interior spaces;
- Reduction in the number and dimensions of columns;
- Lightweight floor slabs to reduce loads on columns;
- Slim floor slab solutions allowing greater floor-to-floor height.
These features offer modern and efficient solutions, ideal for solving structural issues in residential, industrial and commercial buildings.
The first construction sites with the total prefabrication system are underway
The partnership with Forma represents an opportunity to rethink the way of designing and building, focusing on more efficient and cutting-edge solutions. Discover how the industrialisation of construction sites makes every build faster, safer and higher-performing, improving every phase of the construction process. Send us your project and we will provide the best technical-economic feasibility study.
