Architecture

Steel and glass to the Bagnoli Futura Urban Park
Michele Paleari
A hard, angular volume, in which each surface can be interpreted as a floor, facade or roof, makes up the supporting base for two parallel objects with curved lines and sheets of glass, through which the steel structures that gives form to the whole is clearly visible.

Construction

The suspended roof of the new Juventus stadium in Turin
Massimo Majowiecki, Francesco Ossola, Stefano Pinardi
This paper presents the “new Juventus stadium”, which replaces the Delle Alpi stadium in Turin, which was built for the World Cup in the nineties, after nineteen years in operation. The new stadium is built to the most modern standards on public and sports buildings, and has a capacity of 41,000 spectators.

Research

Steel buckling restrained braces (BRBs) for the retrofitting of existing reinforced concrete structures
Attilio De Martino, Gaetano Della Corte, Mario D’Aniello
Evaluating the seismic capacities of existing reinforced concrete structures and selecting/designing retrofit solutions are important topics in engineering practice and research. Of the various seismic retrofitting strategies available, this paper analyses the use of steel buckling-restrained braces (BRBs) applied to two existing structures. The effectiveness of BRBs is asssessed by means of non-linear static and dynamic analyses.

Engineering

Steel structures designed to the Italian Technical Rules and Eurocodes
Stefania Arangio, Monica Antinori
This paper discusses the basic principles for the design of steel structures in accordance with the Italian “Technical rules for construction (D.M. 14/01/2008 - NTC)” and the European Structural Eurocodes. The first part presents a brief historical background and assesses the concepts of quality management, structural robustness and sustainability. The second part presents the design of multi-storey structures, to highlight the similarities and differences between the two codes.
