Tramway Padova – bridge launch completed

The launching of the Bridge over the Canale Scaricatore on the new SIR-3 line of the Padua Tramway has been completed. It is an infrastructure that will cross the canal to reach the Voltabarozzo district. It is a lower-level reticular bridge intended for tramway use, also sized for road loads, with a static scheme of simple support and a span of approximately 90 m; The weight of the metalwork is approximately 820 tons including the steel pre-platforms for the construction of the deck slab.

Steel Project Engineering took care of the Executive Design of the deck structures, the checks of the deck itself during the launching phase and the Executive Design of the metal structures necessary for the launching. The manufacturer of the metalwork is MBM Spa while the General Contractor that takes care of the construction of the substructures and the entire tramway infrastructure is Consorzio Stabile Europeo.

At the links below there are some interesting videos of the launching progress phases.

We thank MBM S.p.A. for the trust granted and for the photographic material.

Dalmine overpass launch

The new Dalmine junction overpass on the A4 Milan-Brescia motorway was launched on the night between 2 and 3 September. This work will connect the Dalmine toll booth with the roundabout on the Bergamo ring road.

It is a 425-ton deck, 50 metres long and 20 metres wide, which was completely assembled in an area close to the motorway, lifted and transported to the final plano-altimetric position with self-propelled trolleys (SPMT) during a single night-time interruption of the A4 motorway.
Steel Project Engineering, on behalf of the manufacturer of the metalwork of the deck, BIT S.p.A., performed all the static checks of the deck during assembly, Jack-up and transport, as well as the design of the metalwork equipment needed for the lifting, lowering and transport phases.

Thanks to BIT S.p.A. for the trust placed in them and a special thanks to the entire Steel Project assembly team for the precision and accuracy of the design forecasts, excellent work!

At the link below you can view an interesting video of the assembly and other photographic material from the Autostrade per l’Italia website.

Charter for Equal Opportunities

Steel Project Engineering has joined the Charter for Equal Opportunities and Equality at Work https://www.cartapariopportunita.it/ of the Soliditas Foundation, which has already been joined by many organizations.

The charter, launched in Italy in 2009, is a declaration of intent, signed in an absolutely voluntary manner by companies of all sizes, which promotes the diffusion of a corporate culture and inclusive human resources policies, free from discrimination and prejudice and capable of enhancing talents in all their diversity.
This charter highlights the company’s commitment to enhancing Diversity & Inclusion, an aspect already taken into consideration in large part when it joined the practice for Gender Equality PdR125:2022, carried out last year.

The XXIX CTA congress

The XXIX CTA congress will take place in Milan from 26 to 28 September 2024, entitled “ENGINEERING AND ARCHITECTURE OF METALLIC STRUCTURES: NEW CHALLENGES BETWEEN SAFETY, SUSTAINABILITY AND DIGITALIZATION”.

Steel Project Engineering will participate in the event, which will take place at the Fondazione Cariplo Congress Centre, again this year, presenting some of the latest design work carried out. These works include: the redevelopment of the Torri Eur complex, in the area of ​​the same name in Rome; the carrovaro for the construction of the foundation and deck of the new road bridge in the Cancun lagoon (Mexico); the new tram bridge over the discharge canal in Padua; the special lifting equipment for naval blocks, called “Tilter”, located in the Fincantieri factories in Marghera and Monfalcone; the railway and Moselle river overpass bridges in Thionville, France.
These last two projects, together with the redevelopment of the Eur Towers complex, are candidates for the Best Design Award, the “Best Project Award”, which is aimed at professionals in the engineering and architecture of steel constructions. The Best Design Award aims to reward those who contribute to the development of efficient and/or innovative design solutions in the field of steel construction, inspiring designers in the sector. The awards ceremony will take place during the C.T.A. social dinner, scheduled for the evening of 27 September 2024.

We will keep you updated on the progress of the entire event, and obviously we keep our fingers crossed for the Best Design Award!

Let’s fight the climate crisis!

At Steel Project Engineering, we have created a high social impact forest of 50 trees in Tanzania.

The trees were donated to communities of Maasai women in Tanzania who, by planting them on their land, will generate economic security and create a natural system similar to that forest.

Tanzania has lost 25% of its forests in the last 30 years, a problem that, combined with the climate crisis and water scarcity, is causing the desertification of the land.

Planting trees is the best way to protect the soil from erosion, regulate the hydrological cycle and absorb CO2 to combat the climate crisis.

With this ZeroCO2 project at Steel Project Engineering, we want to strengthen our commitment to the environment and to people.

 

 

 

Eur Towers Complex: First milestone completed

With the delivery of the structures and facade cladding for buildings A and C/C1, the first important phase of work in the EUR Towers renovation site was completed within the contractual timeframe.

To celebrate this important milestone, the general contractor Carron SpA organized a fantastic evening of celebration in which all the workers, suppliers including MBM S.p.a. participated. and Focchi S.p.A. and the entire design and construction management team.

We thank Carron for the welcome invitation to this event and MBM, for which we carried out the detailed executive project of the metal carpentry structures of all the buildings, for the trust placed.

Below are some images of the completed buildings.

 

 

Summer holidays closing

We inform you that the Steel Project Engineering office will be closed for holidays from August 12th to August 25th inclusive.

We take this opportunity to wish you happy holidays!

 

 

 

Beltrame bridges launching

At the links below there are some very interesting videos of the lifting phases of the two metal decks built inside the AFV Beltrame plant in Vicenza; on the occasion of the launch, some engineers from Steel Project went to the construction site to witness the completion of the installation of the two metal decks intended for road and railway use respectively.

Steel Project Engineering took care of the structural executive design of the metal decks and the reinforced concrete substructures with relative pile foundations.

We thank BIT S.p.A. for their trust and for the photographic material.

Environmental commitment 2024

A fixed appointment for Steel Project since 2021, the year in which certification for the UNI EN ISO9001 standard was acquired, is the Management Review, which is carried out at least once a year. On this occasion, all company indicators and KPIs are monitored, which allow various aspects to be kept under control (environment, workplace safety, quality, etc.) and the improvement objectives for the following year are defined.
Among the improvement objectives of Steel Project Engineering for the year 2024, we find adhesion to a virtuous ZeroC02 project, thanks to which, through the purchase of trees in disadvantaged countries, we contribute to environmental protection while also bringing important benefits regarding the social aspect. We reached our goal at the beginning of July, planting 100 trees, located respectively in Tanzania (50 trees) and Guatemala (50 trees).
In Tanzania, a region where water is a limited resource and is subject to erosion and desertification, the priority was to combat these phenomena. At the same time we have also promoted the female empowerment of women from the Masaai communities, creating more independence for women and food autonomy.
In Guatemala our trees are important allies for the defense of biodiversity and natural habitats in the Petén, and help absorb the C02 emitted by human activities.

On the occasion of the World Day for Nature Conservation which will be held on July 28th, we donated a tree to each of our collaborators and employees, hoping to encourage increasingly important attention to the environment and perhaps stimulate other realities like ours. take part in projects aimed at environmental protection with also social impact.

Below are some images of our project.
