Caput Mundi: Aurelian Walls section viale del Policlinico/British Embassy
Implementing party
Project description
On the portion of the British Embassy's perimeter wall, there was a major collapse involving the detachment of the curtain wall and the parapet of the wall-walk. Provisional works are currently being carried out to secure the span and the buttress towards Via XX Settembre.
The section needs conservative restoration work to stop the mortar flaking off, the detachment of the face, the disintegration of the wall ridges and the presence of cracks/lesions due to infesting vegetation and deep root systems. Structural work will be carried out to restore the stability of several wall structures and the artistic and functional lighting system.
Specifically, the following works and projects are planned:
- preliminary cleaning operations;
- elimination of infesting vegetation and biological attacks;
- conservation works;
- constitutive reinforcement works;
- structural reinforcement;
- restoration or replacement of flooring;
waterproofing of walkways and all horizontal surfaces.
