A record-breaking dismantling
The demolition/disassembly work was carried out in just two nights and involved the removal of the suspended pedestrian walkway that connected the FS station and Terminal T3 at Fiumicino Airport.
The demolition also involved all the so-called “connective” structures (escalators, elevators and the reinforcement of the floor, etc.). The pedestrian link consisted mainly of metal structure, with a length of about 75 meters and a plan width of about 8 meters and a total weight estimated at about 400 tons. The entire pedestrian walkway was removed, in just two nights, by the use of a 750-ton crane truck on which cut sections of the walkway were loaded and disassembled. Subsequently, the removed footbridge segments were removed from the construction site area using modular trolleys.
