  • 1650 tons

LMV World participates in the reconstruction of the Imera bridge. On 10 April 2015, the A19 viaduct (near the 61 kilometer - between the pylons 16 and 22 - between the Scillato and Tremonzelli exits) was hit by a landslide that came across the pillars of the bridge. This stretch of road, still interrupted, causes considerable discomfort for the Sicilian population although it was provided to reopen a secondary road to connect the municipalities of “Le Madonie”.

LMV World is engaged in the rebuilding of three new spans, two of 70 m and a central one of 130 m; the maximum height of the beams is 6.50 m. The total steel supply amounts to about 1650 tons, of which 1300 tons is the weight expected for the structural part that will make the bridge. Furthermore, LMV will provide all the temporary carpentry (“avambecco”, “retrobecco” and temporary pylons). For the installation, LMV will supply all the equipment necessary for the pushed launch such as winches with ropes of about 1 km in length, rollers with a range of 300 and 500 tons, 500-tonne sledges and the system of “calaggio” for the ultimate positioning of the bridge.
