Article on scaffolding made for the lifting of the Ponte degli Alpini di Bassano. The Bridge of the Alpini di Bassano still stands on the wooden foundations dating back to 1820 and, the by now evident subsidence of the structure, is manifesting itself with visible "humps" on the floor.

The reclamation was carried out on the two east side drafts, which were dried out thanks to the pumps that removed most of the water and, only afterwards, did we at Euroedile shore up the structure for the subsequent lifting and restoration operation.

Our intervention has provided for thefitting of special steel structures, made up of uprights and transoms of the Layher type, innocent pipes and orthogonal joints; the whole structure has been conceived to support the future lifting of the stilate that will be carried out by means of special hydraulic jacks.

Supporting the Ponte degli Alpini represents for us an important challenge from an engineering point of view, but not only that, it makes us aware of the delicacy of the intervention for the great historical and architectural value of this Palladian work.
