| Abstract: |
In this paper the building of a steel arch bridge with a 160-metre span suspended structure in order to get over the old landslide in the area called Boschi di Valoria is presented. The Fondovalle Dolo road in Frassinoro (Modena, Italy) is every so often interrupted by a big landslide called the landslide of Boschi di Valoria, on the north-west side of Monte Modino in the Appennines near Modena. The landslide causes the block of the above-mentioned road which is the only efficient connection between a few villages and the valley where most jobs as well as school services, social and health services are situated. The solution chosen to permanently restore the connection is to get over the landslide through a 160-metre span bridge formed by two steel arches with a structure suspended by means of slanting tie-rods (according to the Nielsen scheme). |
