MISANO WORLD CIRCUIT: NEW ASPHALT FOR THE INTERNATIONAL RACETRACK

Works of resurfacing of 4,226 meters on the international circuit has started.

The project and site engineering is from designer Jarno Zaffelli, owner of the studio Dromo. The works will be done by specialized company Pesaresi SpA in Rimini using feeders technologies for the very first time in Italy.

Misano World Circuit – Technology and safety characterize the intervention that the property of the Misano World Circuit, the Santa Monica SpA, decided to carry on the eve of the 2015 sport season.

Few weeks after the inauguration of Flat Track, now a new investment, for the complete overhaul of the international circuit and the construction of new connections that will bring two new track configurations, 3.2 Km + 1 Km, bringing the commercial offer at the highest level.

An intervention that follows those performed successfully for the noise containment, renewable energy sources with the construction of a modern photovoltaic system and with an eye to environmental protection, with the full use of the materials inside the ‘plant and with the contribution of only Italian materials for construction.

The operation was entrusted to major consulting firms in this industry.

The work of design and project management have been entrusted to Jarno Zaffelli – (Dromo Circuit Design)

“Misano will be the best of its form. Not only will be faster, but all interventions, calculated with our certified softwares based on DroCAS ™, are the footprint of the overall improvement in safety, active and passive. All the operations will be done in about 14 days with 80 operators, 50 vechicles and 3D positioning systems based on the finding laser DTS ™ to stretch more than 5,000 tons of asphalt special. The most important operation will be the balance of all the escape routes for car and motorcycle, the formulation of a specific asphalt to counterfight the effects of salt and moisture, the reprofiling of curves and curbs and also the construction of two new connections, the Brutapela and Acquedotto’s turn.

A total of 35 points of intervention and the total reconstruction of the main track’s asphalt that once again demonstrates our expertise in supporting racetracks around the world for both cars and motorcycles “

Pesaresi has been awarded in recent years of important contracts for widening the third lane of the A14 highway. Pesaresi Spa is always attentive to technological innovation with an organizational structure that can control the production process to the laying of materials, thanks to a modern laboratory for the research of high-tech materials.

The list of works:

– 53,000 square meters of asphalt with high adherence exclusive formulation salt-proof and moisture

– Escape way redesigned according to the calculations of safety DroCAS ™ to increase capacity decelerating damaged while maintaining unaltered the spaces for manoeuvre in case of error

– New Kerbs with embedded drainages and reprofiling of existing

– Reviewing the system of surface drainage

– Renovation of sections and profiles to increase the surface flatness

– Two new fittings, Brutapela and Acquedotto, introduce curves with original designs specifically designed for driving schools as GuidarePilotare

– New removable anti-skid paints

– Reprofiling of all curves to improve vehicle dynamics and driving pleasure
