Description

Coffered ceiling system OBJECT OF THE INVENTION The invention, as the title of this descriptive document states, is a system of combinable coffers. It is an innovation that, within current techniques, offers advantages previously unknown. TECHNICAL SECTOR The present invention falls within the sector of fixed constructions, in the subclassification of buildings, particularly in the field of scaffolding, molds, formwork, tools or accessories for construction, or their use, handling of construction materials on the construction site, repair, demolition or other work on constructed buildings, and more specifically in the section of mold or formwork elements for general use, as well as in that of moldable surfaces of plastic material. STATE OF THE ART The present invention arises from observing the usual difficulties encountered in the execution of structures using traditional systems of coffers and vaults, especially in the field of floor construction. In daily practice, concrete coffers have an excessive weight that makes them difficult to handle and install, in addition to generating waste and debris after placement, and exhibiting a high rigidity that causes them to break in case of impacts or falls. On the other hand, polystyrene formwork panels, although lighter, generate waste during their adaptation on site, are difficult to fix on the formwork due to their low stability and tend to move easily due to the wind or during the pouring of the concrete, which compromises both the precision of the installation and the safety of the operators when walking on them. Consequently, this invention provides the formwork system that overcomes these limitations through a lighter, more stable and adaptable modular solution, which reduces waste generation, improves ease of installation and provides greater safety during handling and use on site, optimizing the construction process, increasing efficiency in the execution of the work and improving the reliability of the final result, as well as the precision in the shaping of lightweight structures. Currently, there is no known existence of any coffer system that presents structural and constitutive technical characteristics equal or similar to those described in this descriptive report, as claimed. DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The object of the present invention is the creation of a system of coffers that provides a notable innovation within its field of application in the current state of the art, the characterizing details that make it possible being conveniently included in the final claims that accompany this description. The invention relates to a system of formwork panels comprising a set of panel models with a base comprising a common dimension (width) and a second variable dimension (length), all being multiples of a minimum dimension L. For example, it comprises a first panel model of length 3L, a second panel model of length 2L and a third panel model of length L, said models having a lightweight configuration suitable for facilitating their handling and installation on site. The varying lengths of the coffer models allow for maintaining proportionality between them, thus preserving the geometric relationship between them and ensuring their correct combination within a continuous modular structure. This proportionality guarantees systematic compatibility between elements and promotes system repeatability without creating discontinuities. These models are sized and configured to be combined with each other by positional coupling to form a continuous modular structure adaptable to different geometries without the need for machining or cutting on site, allowing optimization of the arrangement of elements in construction systems and improving the efficiency in the execution of lightweight structures. This invention eliminates the problems associated with adapting construction systems to non-standard geometries, avoiding cuts, material waste, and instability during installation, by providing a modular solution that allows for continuous and precise layout without the need for on-site adjustments. This optimizes the construction process, reducing execution times and improving safety during assembly. This innovation is particularly useful in the construction of lightweight building structures, where speed, precision, and adaptability to different configurations are essential, allowing for greater efficiency in planning and execution. It also helps reduce waste generation, facilitates the handling of components, and improves working conditions for personnel, ensuring a more uniform and efficient final result. The waffle slab models are designed to be manufactured in various dimensions (width and length values ​​different from those of other series) depending on construction requirements. This allows the system to be adapted to different structural typologies and construction conditions, facilitating its integration into projects of varying scale and complexity. This dimensional variability helps optimize construction planning and improve execution efficiency. It should be noted that the reference form, being the basic form within the system, will generally have a length greater than L, for example, 3L. Thus, the first form mentioned acts as a dimensional reference for the rest of the forms, establishing a unit that organizes the layout of the system on site. This configuration allows the construction grid to be structured in an orderly and coherent manner. Furthermore, the second formwork model facilitates the adaptation of the system to intermediate configurations where the use of longer modules is not feasible. This feature allows for dimensional adjustments while maintaining structural continuity. Similarly, the third, smaller coffer model allows for more precise adjustments in areas requiring greater geometric adaptability. This design helps optimize the system's fit in irregular or difficult-to-resolve areas. Similarly, the formwork panels can be manufactured from a lightweight and durable material, such as plastic, which facilitates handling during transport and installation, while also providing adequate resistance to the mechanical stresses of the construction process. This combination of lightness and strength improves working conditions and reduces on-site strain. Furthermore, the plastic may be recycled polypropylene, which offers environmental advantages by promoting material reuse and reducing the ecological impact of the construction system. This material choice allows for maintaining adequate mechanical properties along with greater sustainability. Additionally, the formwork panels can be dimensioned (thickness, material) to withstand the traffic of workers during installation, providing a stable surface that allows safe movement without compromising their integrity. This capability contributes to improved safety on the construction site and facilitates assembly tasks. Finally, the coffered ceiling models can be sized for placement in abacus or column capital areas, allowing the modular structure to be adapted to these areas without additional modifications. This configuration facilitates the resolution of complex structural junctions and improves system continuity at critical construction points. To use the coffer system, the coffer models are selected and arranged according to the dimensions and geometry of the structure to be built, organizing them on the work surface according to the desired configuration. The different models are then combined by positioning them together, so that they fit together and allow for the creation of a continuous structure without the need for additional cuts or adjustments. During installation, the correct placement of the elements is ensured, allowing passage over them if necessary, which facilitates assembly and preparation of the structure. Finally, the system allows for adjustments to the layout in specific areas or with particular geometries through the appropriate combination of different models, guaranteeing efficient, orderly execution adaptable to the conditions of the construction environment. EXPLANATION OF THE FIGURES To complete the description being made and in order to help in the better understanding of the characteristics of the invention, this descriptive report is accompanied, as an integral part thereof, by some figures in which, for illustrative and non-limiting purposes, the following has been represented. Figures 1, 2 and 3 show a view of the different coffer models of the coffer system in different dimensions. PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION The formwork system of the present invention comprises a set of formwork models, all of the same width within the series and with lengths that are multiples of a common length L. The figures show a first formwork model (1) of length 3L, a second formwork model (2) of length 2L, and a third formwork model (3) of length L. These models have a lightweight configuration suitable for easy handling and installation on site. They are dimensioned and configured for combination with each other by positional coupling, allowing the formation of a continuous modular structure adaptable to different geometries without the need for machining or cutting on site.This configuration allows for the optimization of construction processes, reduces execution times and eliminates waste generation, ensuring high efficiency in the arrangement of elements on the formwork and adequate structural integration in the resulting assembly. The different dimensions maintain proportionality between the coffer models, thus preserving the functional and geometric relationship between the first model (1), the second model (2), and the third model (3). This proportionality ensures the correct combination between the different models, allowing the formation of continuous structures without discontinuities and promoting the modular repeatability of the system. In figures 1 and 2, internal crossbeams are arranged within the coffer, separated from the edges and from each other by a distance L. Typically, waffle slab models are made from a lightweight and durable material, such as plastic, which facilitates manual handling, reduces loads during assembly, and improves safety conditions on the construction site. This material also provides adequate mechanical strength to withstand the stresses inherent in the construction process. In this preferred embodiment, the plastic is recycled polypropylene, which provides additional environmental advantages by promoting the reuse of materials and contributing to the sustainability of the construction system, while maintaining adequate mechanical and durability properties. Typically, the formwork models are configured to withstand the movement of workers during installation, providing a stable and safe surface that allows movement on them without compromising their structural integrity or the correct arrangement of the assembly. Preferably, the coffered ceiling models are sized for placement in abacus or column capital areas, allowing the modular structure to be adapted to these critical areas without additional modifications. This feature facilitates the execution of complex structural junctions, ensuring system continuity and improving the efficiency of the construction process. Having sufficiently described the nature of the present invention, as well as the manner of putting it into practice, it is not considered necessary to make its explanation more extensive so that any expert in the field may understand its scope and the advantages that derive from it, it being noted that, within its essentiality, it may be put into practice in other modes of embodiment that differ in detail from the one indicated as an example, and which will also achieve the protection sought provided that its fundamental principle is not altered, changed or modified.
