We analyse and study the technical and financial possibilities of the different projects that are always special and have done so since the 1950s.
The greenhouse project was very complex given that the client wished to have 316 stainless steel porticos with a mirror finish with the profile incorporating the glass and that in a section of 28X95 mm.
In addition, assemblies by welding and the processes of mirror polishing and « electro-polishing » type treatment are complex.
The porticos were produced using precise templates and installed within a maximum tolerance of 1 mm.
The laminated glass is of two types, with and without UV.
Mechanically operated skylights were placed to control the airflow circulation in the greenhouses.
The spandrels are made of 80ZN metallised steel with a coat of oven-baked 60/80 micron polyester paint.
Stability is ensured through the use of stainless steel cross ties.
The porticos have been secured by chemical seals thereby preventing any passage of water into the blue stone (limestone).
We had previously carried out shear tests given the age of the constructions.
This particular lightweight design is unique and it adds a touch of modernity to what is a historic site.
