| Reference: Piede > Foot Reference information: Ciao Daniela! In questo file bilingue è chiamato foot "Lo spessore delle alluvioni è risultato di pochi metri al piede della sponda destra, in corrispondenza della spalla del ponte; tale spessore si mantiene su valori molto bassi (circa 6-7 m) sul ciglio sinistro dell’alveo di magra, quindi aumenta progressivamente fino a raggiungere il valore massimo di circa 25 m in corrispondenza della spalla sinistra (Nord) del ponte. [...] The boreholes indicate that the alluvial deposit is very thin on the right foot bank (a few metres) and on the left margin of the watercourse (6-7 m). Going towards the centre of the river plain, the thickness of the alluvial deposit grows reaching the maximum value of approximately 25 m in the area of the left shoulder of the bridge." (ww2.media-teca.com/mediateca/index.php/it/projects/doc_download/10-multidisciplinary-design-of-the-new-sangro-bridge-a-review-of-the-geological-and-hydraulic-issues.html - EN, p. 7 - IT, p. 21) Eccoti un altro estratto, in cui si parla del possibile scalzamento dei piedi di un viadotto in Nuova Zelanda "Seventy-nine metres below track level, the Makatote River has been eroding the bank that supports two of the viaduct’s concrete feet on Pier 7 (formerly known as Pier G). It is the same pier that the original contractors who built the bridge (Andersons) had trouble with 100 years ago while building the structure. The result of the erosion was that the feet were at risk of being undermined by the river.'

Eppure... Buon lavoro! |
