G2 AVP and G2 PRO Projects
The project involves constructing a footbridge over the A620 to link the ZAC Aérospace and the CREPS. The footbridge comprises two access ramps, located to the north and south, which flank the crossing area above the A620. A second, smaller crossing is located on the south side.
The footbridge is a steel structure comprising three spans.
G2 Preliminary Design (AVP) scope:
- Preliminary site study including geological and geotechnical context, preliminary geotechnical model
- Definition of a geotechnical investigation programme
- Study of general construction principles and preliminary dimensional design of the footbridge foundations.
G2 PRO Scope:
- Summary and geotechnical model based on the investigations carried out
- Dimensioning of geotechnical structures:
- North and South ramps: verification of the stability of the slopes and reinforced embankments, estimation of settlements, design of rigid inclusions beneath part of the South ramp
- Footbridge foundations: design and justification of deep foundations for the piers and abutments of the footbridge and the small crossing
