Projenog Engenharia de Projetos
was founded in May 2012 and
specialises in the art of structural projects. Projenog was born to meet the
high demand for infrastructure projects in Brazil. Composed of a young
and experienced team Projenog is a visionary company focused on two
main values: reliability and quality.
Creating
civil structure projects
, with the most varied typologies as
precast, post tensioned, shored structures, successive spans, etc.,

This flyover has a total length of 214 m, spanning 18, 34 and 55 m, and a
total width of 9.56 m. Currently, the foundation is being executed on site
and the executive project is almost finished.
Allplan Engineering
software was used to generate formwork and
reinforcement drawings. The 3D model was made using the Bridge/Civil
Engineering Component tool, defining horizontal and vertical curves and
variable sections of the entire flyover. Columns and foundations were also
modelled. Finally, all elements were reinforced and detailed.
Because this was the first time Projenog had used Allplan Engineering for
a real project, many challenges had to be overcome, such as the team
adapting to a new tool and the changes that the new tool can bring to
optimise the reinforcement detailing while maintaining the standard quality
of drawings. Projenog didn’t see any increased productivity in this initial
project compared to similar projects done with 2D CAD software, but can
see from the results that using Allplan brought about an improvement in
terms of quality and presentation precision.
In conclusion, with the combination of the Projenog team’s ability and the
great potential of the Allplan Engineering software, Projenog will develop
all future projects using Allplan Engineering with even more confidence
and mastery.
