Description
We accomplished the consolidation of the sustaining structure of the catalytic cracking reactor from the Petrobrazi Refinery. The structure was realized by a steel latticed structure of 47.3m height between the years 1965-1968 according the american codes from that time. In order to respect the actual design codes, especially the seismic action resistence, we proposed a solution considering different technical and technological aspects.
Features
Special Technologies:
nonlinear viscous dampers, to increase the fraction of the critical damping of the structure
