RENOVATION OF HVDC PLANTS: NEW GIS BUILDINGS 132- 220 – 380 kV
Piossasco’s Power Station Plant is a part of the National Electricity Network.
The plant included the construction of two sheds (GFA 3000sqm), several office buildings and outdoor foundations holding all facilities of the process. Sheds are mostly precast structures (columns, beams and roof) with cast-in-place spread foundations. Plants will be supoprted by special foundations and RC pavings designed for heavy loads due to plants. In order to control RC cracks due to large dimensions of these pavings it has been designed a system of crack-control joints with shear connector where needed. For National Regulations the Power Station is a strategic facility, for this reason great care and additional safety factors were taken into account during Structural Design. Our Company was the lead consultant for all Civil works, including Geotechnical design and Earth works.
