Discover the advantages of the mechanoviga reinforcement system
At Grupo Escribano, we specialize in offering innovative and efficient solutions for the rehabilitation of buildings. Today we want to introduce you to the mecanoviga, a metal reinforcement system for beams that is revolutionizing the renovation sector. This system consists of prefabricated telescopic profiles that are assembled using high-strength screws under the joist that needs to be reinforced, and has all the necessary approvals for its use.
Advantages of using the mechanoviga
The mechanoviga stands out for its multiple advantages over other reinforcement methods, offering a quick, efficient and less invasive solution:
Does not require demolition: One of the greatest advantages of the mechanoviga is that it does not require the demolition of the joists or the floor. This not only saves time, but also significantly reduces the level of intervention required.
Speed and less intervention: By carrying out the reinforcement from the lower part of the slab in poor condition, it is not necessary to evacuate the upper floors. This allows for faster execution and less inconvenience for the inhabitants.
No cutting or welding: This system does not require cutting metal elements or welding on site, which simplifies the process and improves safety.
Assured durability: The metal systems used are zinc-plated and dichromated at the factory, which eliminates the need for complementary treatments to ensure durability.
Efficient assembly: The mechanobeam is made up of steel profiles assembled using high-resistance screws, resting on metal brackets installed at the ends, usually on structural walls or pillars.

How is a mechanobeam assembled?
The assembly of a mechanobeam is a simple process that is carried out under the joist that you want to reinforce, a few centimeters from it, which implies a height reduction of between 15 and 20 centimeters, depending on the case. Once installed, the gap between the original joists and the mechanical beams is filled with non-shrinkage repair mortars, thus completing the loading of the beam.
When is it advisable to use the mechanoviga?
The use of the mechanoviga is especially recommended in situations as:
Change of use: When greater structural resistance is required for a new activity.
Homes with wooden joists: In cases where the wooden joists are affected by termites.
Concrete beams: When they are damaged by aluminos, carbonation, chlorides, sulfates, etc.
Metal beams: In an advanced state of oxidation, common in unwaterproofed roofs.
In addition, it is an ideal solution to pass the Technical Building Inspection (ITE) test in Barcelona and other locations.
At Grupo Escribano, we are committed to quality and innovation in each project. The mechanoviga is further proof of our commitment to offering solutions that not only meet the highest standards of safety and durability, but also facilitate the rehabilitation process and minimize inconvenience for our clients.
