View our portfolio and contact us for more information. Areas of Expertise In the field of engineering, we support clients with design services and construction management across all contexts. Specifically in the following areas: • Construction – for private clients and public entities (commercial, industrial, banking institutions, exhibition spaces, sports facilities…) • Structures in reinforced concrete, prestressed concrete, composite structures, and steel (pedestrian and cycle bridges, canopies, road and railway underpasses, viaducts, bridges, centering structures…) • Civil engineering works in superstructure and substructure , roadworks, infrastructure for distribution companies, urban furnishings, drainage systems, pressurized pipelines • Special geotechnical works – piles, micropiles, anchored and nailed walls, Berlin walls, sheet piling, buttressed retaining walls, consolidation injections – for excavations, foundations, and reinforcements (slopes, roads, lake shores) and below-ground works • Structural renovation and restoration of buildings of all types • Special structures such as pontoons and moorings for tourist ports, submerged and floating structures, tensile structures, cable networks, foundations for vibrating machinery, tuned mass damping systems (TMD) Technical Assessments and Safety The firm's engineers also handle all aspects related to the safety and preservation of structures. They conduct technical assessments for evaluating structures, buildings, and roadworks. They specialize in environmental investigations, for example in cases of ground subsidence, flooding, or fire damage. Structural Analysis Among the specialties of the firm, led by engineers Paronesso and Artari, are analyses of: • Static and dynamic structural behavior, both linear and nonlinear • Modal analysis in real and complex domains • Seismic and geotechnical analysis • Structural instability (buckling) • Three-dimensional slope stability • Impact and collision analysis • Vibrations induced by pedestrian, vehicular, and railway traffic • Floating structures To learn more in detail, contact our office via the form or by email. Software Development AR&PA Engineering designs and develops specialized software for the study of: • Nonlinear static interaction between foundation piles for pile group calculations • Sea state modeling for determining wave loads on floating structures • Static and dynamic behavior of moorings composed of catenary chains and dead weights • Dynamic interaction between railway bridges and trains • Dynamic interaction between floating platforms and fluid • Dynamic interaction between structures (e.g., dams) and infinite media (soil, fluid contained in reservoirs)
