Project Details
For the T3 section of Line C, which runs through the historic heart of Rome, SOCOTEC Italy designed and installed a high-tech monitoring system to ensure the safety of the structures along the metro line. The intervention includes:
- Detection and control of geotechnical and structural parameters to monitor the effects of excavation and construction activities.
- Automation of data collection, for real-time monitoring and immediate analysis of any critical variations.
- Monitoring of historical structures, ensuring the protection of the city's architectural heritage along the metro route.
- Data management and dissemination via DDS Web-GIS, for fast and integrated access to the information collected.
SOCOTEC Italy also conducted the Ante Operam monitoring of the monumental section of Section T3 (San Giovanni - Colosseum - Piazza Venezia), ensuring the protection of historical structures. Our commitment continues with the monitoring of sections T7, T6a, T5 and T4, ensuring constant control over tunnels and stations through advanced technological solutions.
