SACERTIS Ingegneria SRL, in partnership with the Politecnico di Torino, carried out an important campaign of experimental tests on reinforced concrete and prestressed concrete beams as part of a research project promoted by Sina S.p.A. in collaboration with AUTOSTRADA DEI FIORI.
The beams were recovered from bridge decks that were being upgraded. The tests provided important information on the response of existing structures under ultimate load, on collapse mechanisms, and on damage indicators, to support our diagnostic activities.
