Reconstruction of the locks of Saint-Malo (1950)

Upper bearing for downstream sector door - summer 1950

Plan The pivots of the downstream sector doors are secured by cables stretched through the concrete of the structure between the pivot and another end accessible via a technical well. These cables are fixed by anchor cones. This technique is similar to that used for prestressed concrete.
