These hanging trusses are the result of a considerable number of studies on how to cover great surfaces in a suitable as well as economical manner. The supporting structure is made up of reinforced concrete portals which rest upon foundations of the same material. These portals can be prefabricated though in each particular case they have to be adapted to the special project in question. The thus built structure is finished by means of two hanging sheets: ene metal sheet and one of reinforced concrete. Both of them combine different shapes and complementary materials whereby advantages are being obtained with regard to watertightnes, a minimum of maintenance, easy placing of the thermal insulation and suspended ceiling, in addition to the possibility of maintaining an almost uniform inner free height throughout a great surface, and to allow for an architectural design of very bold lines.
