| Abstrait: |
The new Porta d’Europa footbridge in the city of Padova is a lightweight suspension footbridge spanning 80 m across a four lanes freeway, linking a new park to the Piovego canal embankment and a student campus area not far away. The area is sufficiently known in the city for being socially troubled at present time, and the new connecting infrastructure represents a urban administration challenge for rehabilitation. With true sustainable development premises, the project faced in its preliminary and construction phases numerous constraints including low budget, preservation of embankment integrity and minimum material usage. All of them revealed as fundamental design guidance up to the final result. |
