| TYPSA group relies on a team of over ninety structure-specialists, sorted out in nine working teams, fifty of which are based in the Madrid headquarters. This large team provides high-quality technical support to all activity areas, with a capacity to take on board enormous projects which require a high-degree of specific qualification, contributing an important range of experience in national and international projects. Within their specific tasks, the crucial structures on which they usually focus are: architecture, bridges, viaducts, tunnels and metros.
Integrating engineering and architecture with the latest systems for structural calculation and design helps provide high added-value solutions to our clients, and it also boosts technical and response capacity to the market’s specific requirements in this area. The experience gathered in terms of unique building structures, with different kinds of materials and typologies, in close collaboration and coordination with architecture teams and facilities teams, allows us to tackle any challenge from a client with a satisfaction-guarantee. |
NEW BRIDGE ACROSS THE RIVER MIÑO IN LUGO
 This bridge, the third across the Miño in Lugo, is a milestone and a hallmark of a city that is moving firmly towards modernity. The new Lugo bridge improves the town centre’s accesses and exits from the west relieving the present Roman Bridge of traffic. The total length is 195 m in two distinct sections: a steel one 95 metres long, across the bed of the river Miño, with a lower decked parabolic arch scheme and the other, 100 metres long, as an access viaduct to the arch bridge, with a beam structural scheme and two spans 50 metres long that minimize the land occupancy on the right bank of the river and will allow maximum permeability in this area. |
MOVABLE BRIDGE IN THE PORT OF TARRAGONA
 The new infrastructure is part of the port railway network, linking the Lleida and Reus docks with a railway traffic bridge, parallel to the swing road bridge, now in operation. The double truss type with slippage motion adapts to the level conditions of the railway line in the docks, maintaining operating capacity in the inner dock. The opening system, with slippage motion of each truss, allows the bridge to be kept open in standby, for the free transit of boats most of the time. Its type and dimensions make it a very special achievement in the whole world. |
