CUSTOMER Impresa Mantovani
​
Supply and installation of the metallic superstructures of the Malamocco navigation basin approach in the context of the Mose construction site in the Municipality of Venice. The metal superstructures are made of calendered and flanged carbon steel pipe ferrules, joined together by bolting of large diameter. The painting cycle used is very particular, as part of the metal structure is immersed in the sea, therefore in contact with marine corrosion.
 Hot-galvanized metal gangways have been positioned in the upper end of the pipes, as a walkway for any maintenance on metal structures.
 
The two metal structures have the following dimensions:

• structure length = about 90 mt
• structure height = about 5.5 mt

 
The on-site assembly was carried out using a pontoon (boat) with crane, all the metal structures were positioned in operation, according to the assembly priorities.
