Explanation by CEO, Engineer Marcelo Ribas, about the name ENGASTAR ENGINEERING:

In full expansion in Brazil, with operations also in Uruguay, ENGASTAR ENGINEERING specializes in the design of reinforced concrete structures, prestressed concrete, steel structures, and precast concrete.

Each project is developed and executed with meticulous attention to detail and close supervision during the construction phase or the manufacturing of steel materials, reflecting a high standard of engineering excellence.

Meaning and Concept of the Name

The name ENGASTAR ENGENHARIA was carefully crafted to reflect the integration of technical expertise, shared knowledge, and creativity applied to structural engineering. The goal is to optimize processes, timelines, and costs, delivering the best possible outcome for each project, which has established ENGASTAR ENGENHARIA as a benchmark in complex structures.

Origin of the Technical Term:

"Engastar" is a technical verb used in engineering. In the context of structures, it refers to the action of rigidly fixing or embedding one structural element, such as a beam, into another element, like a column or foundation. This rigid connection, known as "engaste," allows for the transfer of vertical forces and bending moments (twists and horizontal loads), ensuring complete interaction between structural elements and providing stability and strength to the construction.

Symbolism in the Name:

The name ENGASTAR represents a symbolic and technical fusion of concepts:

ENG: An abbreviation for "Engineering," referencing expertise in high-complexity structural projects.

A: The letter A symbolizes engaste in engineering; when inverted, it represents the universal quantifier, "for all" or "for any," highlighting that ENGASTAR provides comprehensive solutions for any type of project, regardless of its size.

STAR: The English word for "Star," symbolizing excellence and the firm’s commitment to achieving the highest standards in structural engineering.

ENGASTAR ENGENHARIA is a registered trademark (INPI), recognized for its differentiated technical approach, committed to innovation and excellence in large-scale, high-complexity projects.
