Multi-storey elevation of an existing reinforced concrete building

Description of the intervention:

The design intervention concerns the raising of an existing building with a reinforced concrete structure. The challenge, in this case, is represented by carrying out a multi-storey elevation on a six-storey building. There are even four raised floors, and they have been designed with X-lam technology. The X-lam panels, of varying thickness depending on the static commitment, were used for both the walls and the decks. The walls of the wooden structure therefore rest on a grid of suitably sized steel beams, which in turn conveys the load onto the reinforced concrete pillars.
