Another test methodology that exploits N. 2 lateral poles and perfectly aligned to the test one, anchoring them to one or more iron beams of suitable characteristics, using it as a means of contrast to the hydraulic jack.
For the opening of the new road route of Fiumicino (RM) direction Leonardo Park Station, a load test was carried out using N. 4 trucks 4axles loaded exceptionally up to a load of 53.7 KN per tonne, with the help of blocks in Cement with known weight. The vehicles were…
This time we were instructed to carry out load tests in a structure with more than 2,000 years of history: the Mausoleum of Augustus in Rome. In particular, the structure is in the process of restoration, in order to allow soon access to the visitors. For this reason, stairways have…
[: en] For these load tests on foundation poles, it was chosen to directly use the audience of the building under construction (after proof of loading on pilot poles) to allow direct control post-Operam. [:]
Evidence of building masonry in the historical centre of Rome, with a compression system using flat jacks (test with single Jack to check the tensional state of the masonry and test with double jack for the determination of the elastic modulus). For this type of test we use a…
Among the various types of testing of the structures, the Petricca company carries out thrust tests on parapets of all kinds. In this case the verification was carried out in the area owned by the Superintendency of the Palatine in Rome, on a stone balustrade just consolidated, through the use…
In order to be able to carry out the test load on this deck, having total light of M. 1×14 with the flat central zone and the two sloping lateral zones, it was used N. 1 cushion water Tank of 1×6 m placed in the center and N. 20 Fiberglass…
For this type of testing on reinforced concrete structure, special fibreglass containers have been used which we realized, of dimensions 0, 30×1, 00×1, 00, for the ramps and swimming pools m. 2×2 for the landings. The load was then reached by filling the tanks with water following precise loading steps,…
By means of accurate calculations, no. 13 hydraulic jacks with a max capacity of 20 T have been placed, each, under the structure. A metal structure was made to distribute the thrust of all the jacks and, once the frame has been lifted with a pressure distributor of suitable capacities,…
Monitoring of a structure's fissuring framework. The analysis foresees the positioning of the points of measurement on the horse of the lesions monitored, by means of a special resin. After thus marking the distance of zero between the two points with a millesimal deformometer (calibrated on an Invar steel template),…
