Engordany Roundabout. Andorra. 2014.
The Engordany roundabout is located at the exit of the village of Escaldes in Andorra, on the old road to La Massana It has two traffic lanes and a branch line. It is a structure located over a gorge in the river, which meant that it had to be supported on both banks and on the wall of the gorge by a concrete element anchored in the rock. Four circular pillars, each 1 m in diameter, radially open in plan to support the inner edge of the roundabout. The outer diameter of the roundabout is 44.6 m and the inner diameter is 18 m. The deck is formed by a multi-cellular metal box with an outer edge of 1.2 m on the roundabout and on the branch. In the inner area of the roundabout, the box is enlarged with a triangular cell with a maximum edge of 2.3 m. The 0.20 m thick slab, connected to the steel structure by bolts, was concreted on a corrugated sheet.
