The piers and supporting abutments of the viaduct have shallow foundations, in consideration of the good mechanical characteristics of the surface soil. In elevation, the pies have a rectangular section shaft with rounded heads with a rectangular section pier cap of variable height. The abutments are of the traditional type with wing walls to contain the road embankment.

Trento South A22 Motorway

Design of the piers and abutments for the viaduct “Piste di Stazione”.

Category: Piers and abutments
Services: Final detailed design
Period: July 2007 – December 2007
Client: Seteco Ingegneria s.r.l. Coger s.p.a.

Junction viaduct envisaged as part of the works for the construction of the Trento Sud station consisting of 9 spans with a length of 35.0 x 4 + 47.5 + 35.0 x 4 for a total length of 327.50 m. The viaduct is built with a closed box section in a mixed steel-concrete solution, with a deck width of 16.00 m and consisting of two carriageways with a width of 6.95 m. The piers are framed and the abutments are of the traditional type, both with deep foundations on piles.

Shopping centre “Caselle Open Mall”

Final design of the foundations of the buildings of the shopping centre.

Category: Building foundations
Services: Final detailed design

Design of the buildings forming part of the «Caselle open Mall» complex, a newly built shopping centre located in the municipality of Caselle. The group of multi-storey commercial buildings is represented by the components of the “Village”, i.e. Blocks A, B, C, D, E. The Village area is then directly connected to the other two commercial macro-areas called “Food Court” (Block N) and the Premium (Block M).
The static structural scheme is common for all the buildings making up the Village: they are all made up of steel beams and columns of the pendular type, braced with RC cores and walls.

The foundations of all the buildings are shallow and consist of a grating of inverted beams with a rectangular section between 1 and 1.5 m in height, connected by a 30 cm thick slab. The foundations of the cores are slabs with a thickness equal to that of the connected inverted beams. The evaluation of the elastic constants of the soil in dynamic conditions was carried out according to the Gazetas formulation. The pressure of the soil on the retaining walls was evaluated according to Wood’s theory.

The two antennas have an “H” frame shape and are made of reinforced concrete up to a height of about 31.5 m from the ground level; beyond this height, corresponding to the intrados of the upper crosspiece, in metal tube, they extend for a further height of 19m and are made with two steel sections connected by a steel transverse beam.

The SP2 abutment (free) is of the traditional type and extends longitudinally for about 6m while the width is identical to that of the SP1 abutment. Both substructures have shallow foundations. The design also involved the provisional works carried out for the construction phases of the abutments, for example Larsen-type sheet piling.
