Design of the metal structures of the two warehouses that make up the support for the runways and the roofing of the buildings of PH 9-10 and EB 2 on the River Bank.

The structures are built in two statically independent blocks, with a total surface of approximately 4400 square meters and consist of a succession of single-nave portals 26 m wide and 27 m high, arranged at a distance of 13 m.

The roof is made with trussed beams arranged at a distance of 6.50 m, supported by bayonet columns which also act as a support for the runways for the operation of two overhead cranes of 500 t each.
The runways are made with welded I-section beams with a height of 2.00 m and a span of approximately 13 m.
Final design of the single- storey buildings adjacent to the warehouses, called Ventilation and Entrance Buildings, which develop a total area of about 800 square meters.
