#edificio copan

1952 - 1966

Paulo Mendes da Rocha sobre Copan: 'Se você fizer esse prédio assim, o que ele não resiste (não há engenheiro que calcule) é o esforço de vento nos pilares. Se você der aquela forma, ela é estável por si. Não é porque ele gosta das curvas não sei do que. Como quem diz “se você acha que é porque eu gosto das curvas (ainda mais da mulher amada como ele dizia), então se você quer ser bobo que seja”. O Niemeyer foi sempre muito inteligente. Aquela forma dá estabilidade à figura do ponto de vista do esforço de vento, tombamento por esforço horizontal produzido pela carga de vento numa lâmina, etc etc.' 

Copan (1952-1961), Oscar Niemeyer e Carlos Alberto Cerqueira Lemos.
