    Profesional Jobs



    Between 1992 and 2002, collaborations with AMINSA (Agrupación Mediterránea de Ingeniería S.A.) in the drafting of the following projects:

    and the technical asssitance to the site management of:

    Brige in Cervera del Maestre

    Bridge over the Cervera dry riverbed projected in 2001 to substitute the ancient CV-135 road bridge, collapsed due to scour. de sus pilas.

    Pergola bridge in high speed Madrid-Levante railway acces to Madrid's Atocha Station (Parla, Madrid)

    In the pass of one track over another with a lot of skew, it is usuall to resort to pergolas. This one was done with train traffic on the lower tracks. It is totally prefabricated, and access viaducts (also prefabricated) were added to avoid the long retaining walls of the embankment.

    Flyover in the N-340 road, Almazora (Castellón)

    Projected by the Carlos Fernandez Casado office, the lateral girder la viga de borde eceived the impact of the arm of a excavator, that that exposed the prestressing wires. After checking the stability by means of a load test, the girder was was reconstructed in place, and all the pathologies were treated to reopen it to traffic.

    From 2002 to the present, he participates in the following projects as self-employed: Technical reports from UPV:
