The building of the San Giorgio bridge in Genoa re‐establishes the connection between autoroutes A10 and A7 after the tragic event of the Morandi bridge collapse of 14 August 2018.
The bridge deck layout required the use of a torsionally rigid section. This was achieved, in particular, with two longitudinal beams spaced 7.00 m apart, a curved, calendared soffit and a top slab made of composite concrete.
The new bridge was opened on 3 August 2020, finally revealing the idea of the architect, Renzo Piano: A big, white vessel moored in the valley, a bridge that enters a dialogue with the sea, with the wind, with light, a structure that encourages builders to continue building bridges as links between territories and symbols of union.
