Expansion of the “ONAV” shipyard and “H1” building

Final detailed design of the foundation and elevation structures of ONAV extension and new building H1.

Category: Industrial Buildings
Services: Final detailed design
Period: June 2019 – February 2020
Client: Fincantieri Infrastructure

Structural design of the extension of the 5 spans of the Fincantieri 279 building called ONAV or Officina Navale and of the H1 building, planned for the logistical reorganization of the FINCANTIERI plant in Monfalcone (GO).
The ONAV structure has dimensions in plan of approximately 175.00 x 30.00 m.
The load-bearing structures are built in homogeneity with the existing ones, while being independent and detached from them. The columns of the portals are hinged to the foot in longitudinal direction to create a longitudinal pendular pattern. Each portal is closed by a top trussed crosspiece. In each span there is a runway, supporting two overhead cranes, with a span of 20.00 m.

The new H 1 shed, with dimensions of 255.00 x 25.55 m in plan and about 20.00 m in height, has a roof that is identical and aligned with the shape of the existing Panel Line C shed.
Externally, protruding from the main volume, there are two canopies. In the H1 extension, three longitudinal blocks can be recognized, all with a width of 25.00m, and a length of the single variable between 60.00m and 101.00 m . The structure consists of load-bearing columns made up of pairs of HE profiles, connected with trusses, on which the roof structure is erected. Inside there are two runways (one for each longitudinal side) resting on the main columns, on which the sliding of 4 overhead cranes with a maximum capacity of 30 tons at the hook is foreseen.

Marghera Naval Workshop

Detailed design of the steel structures above ground of the hangar.

Category: Industrial Buildings
Services: Final detailed design
Period: April 2019 – December 2019
Client: Fincantieri Infrastructure

Design of the metal structure of a hangar used as a naval workshop for the expansion of the Naval Workshop on the North-West side of the shipyard of the Marghera (VE) plant. The intervention occupies a total area of approximately 44,000 square meters, of which 7,800 square meters dedicated to the new workshop and the remainder intended for the yard where the pre – assembly areas are to be built.

The building consists of a single- storey portal structure with a rectangular plan with dimensions of approximately 145.00 x 57.70 m and a height of approximately 21.20 m from the finished internal floor to the ridge of the roof. The building is divided into two structural parts, perfectly symmetrical, separated by an expansion joint. From the point of view of the overall static scheme, the portals are hinged to the foot in longitudinal direction in order to create a longitudinal pendular scheme whose stabilization is guaranteed by longitudinal cross braces.

At an altitude of 11.40 m there is a runway supporting two overhead cranes: a hook crane with a capacity of 20 tons and a magnetic traverse crane with a capacity of 19 tons. The runway has a welded I-section with variable height. The side walls are made with a secondary framing placed horizontally with a vertical center distance of about 2500 mm directly supported by the transversal portals and by intermediate curtain walls mullions.
