Residential

Milan, Galleria Pattari

This construction site, located in the heart of Milan in 2015, was undoubtedly one of the most challenging in planning and logistical organization. Bold choices were made, including positioning a crane on the rooftop, which required closing the city’s main streets for an entire night to allow for its installation.

Appropriate structural checks of the entire building were carried out to assess the feasibility of installing the crane. Thanks to this decision, it was possible to renovate the residential unit located on the top floor.

The steel profile structure designed to support the crane’s loads was engineered in such a way that it could be reused for the subsequent construction of a residential unit in steel and glass, connected to the lower floor of the house through a reinforced concrete staircase.
