    Sistema Consstructivo Top Down

    Uploaded by

    The document describes the top-down construction method for building a basement. It involves: 1) Installing bore piles and steel stanchions before excavation to provide support during construction. 2) Excavating the site in stages to allow construction of each floor slab from the ground level down, with the steel stanchions supporting the structure. 3) Repeating excavation and construction of basement slabs until the entire basement is complete, then encasing the steel stanchions in concrete to form permanent columns.
