CASE STUDYROMANIA – BUCAREST – SEISMIC ISOLATION OF MIHAI BRAVU OVERPASS
#CHALLENGE
Pier head dimensions of the steel arch bridge were not sufficient to guest the lead rubber isolators size as designed in the original drawings.
#SOLUTION
TENSA suggested to change the isolator's round geometry to a rectangular shaped solution, providing the same performances as the original one.
#OUTCOME
Our solution permitted to switch the problem: instead of modifying and adapting the existing structure, we have designed a new isolator to suit the available spaces.
