Tensile Structures at Loro Parque: Steel Cable Engineering Solutions
Tensile architecture in leisure and conservation spaces requires support systems that combine visual lightness with unfailing mechanical resistance. Cables Estructurales has led the manufacturing of steel cable systems for an iconic tensile structure at Loro Parque, Tenerife, providing staying solutions that guarantee the project’s integrity under the environmental conditions of the Canary Islands.
Technical Office: Custom Terminal and Anchor Design: What sets Cables Estructurales apart is our ability to intervene from the technical design phase.
- Custom Development: Thanks to our technical office, we manufacture swaged terminals and regulation systems that adapt millimetrically to the project’s needs.
- Material Duality: Depending on technical requirements, we supply systems in AISI 316 stainless steel (maximum protection against marine corrosion) or high-resistance galvanized steel.
How to choose cables for a tensile structure in coastal areas? The use of stainless steel cables with custom-swaged terminals is recommended. These systems offer low elongation and superior resistance to salinity, ensuring that the canvas or membrane tension remains stable without constant maintenance.
Solutions for Tensile and Landscape Architecture: As leaders with extensive experience in construction, marine, and industrial sectors, our strength lies in application versatility:
- Structural Reinforcement: Systems designed to efficiently absorb dynamic loads (wind) and static loads.
- Aesthetic Integration: The use of optimized cable diameters allows the support structure to go unnoticed, highlighting the tensile design.
- Certified Experience: Our participation in projects like Loro Parque validates our ability to meet the most demanding challenges in structural engineering.
Leaders in the Design of Tie-rod and Reinforcement Systems: At Cables Estructurales, we maintain a large stock of cables, strands, and accessories. Our technical expertise allows us to collaborate closely with architects and engineers to manufacture systems that not only comply with safety regulations but also raise the quality standard of every installation.
