Boreal Tower Goes Beyond Being a Simple Giant Beamless Building. It Is a Landmark in National Engineering and Puts Brazil on the Global Map of Civil Construction
The Construction Industry in Brazil is about to enter a new era, with the development of revolutionary technologies that challenge traditional norms. A stunning landmark of this advancement is the Boreal Tower, a 240-meter tall skyscraper located in Balneário Camboriú, being erected without the use of beams.
This innovation, called pilled raft, redefines the concept of foundation, replacing conventional structures with a gigantic block of reinforced concrete, firmly set on the deep rocks of the soil through anchoring piles. This transformation promises to revolutionize the construction industry in Brazil and worldwide.

Brazil Is Paving the Way to Become a Global Reference in Engineering Works
This feat was not achieved overnight. It took 10 years of research and development to make the pilled raft a reality. The technical team at FG Empreendimentos traveled the world in search of the best available technologies, from construction logistics to the application of piping, installations, and pressure-reducing valves. This commitment to excellence and innovation places Brazil on the global map of civil construction.

The impact of Boreal Tower goes beyond being a simple tall building. It is a landmark in national engineering, a symbol of technological advancement in Brazilian civil construction. André Bigarella, engineering director of the construction company, emphasizes that this achievement is not just about height, but about redefining how we build our buildings.
With the completion of Boreal Tower expected by 2025, Brazil will be closer to becoming a global leader in the adoption of innovative construction technologies. This project also has a direct impact on the economy, generating jobs and boosting the civil construction industry.
