INTRODUCTION
Venice World famous tourist spot.
Located in North East Italy.
Venice is threatened by floods due to the high tides in the Adriatic Sea.
Most severe flooding occurred in 4th November, 1966 6 feet above
M.S.L
In order to protect Venice and its lagoon, MOSE system was adopted.

WHAT IS ‘MOSE’ SYSTEM?
There are 3 main water inlets to the city Malamocco, Chioggia, Lido.
MOSE system temporary closing of all 3 water inlets.
MOSE ‘Modulo Sperimentale Electromeccanico’ (Experimental
Electro-mechanic Module).
Approved 2002; Work started September 2003; End of work
foreseen in 2016.
Calculated amount is approximately 7 billion Euro.

MOSE SYSTEM (contd..)
MOSE consists of rows of mobile gates at 3 inlets.
These gates separate the lagoon from sea during high tide.
Total of 78 gates Divided into 4 barriers.
Lido inlet widest 2 rows containing 21 and 20 elements linked
by artificial island.
Malamocco inlet row of 19 gates.
Chioggia inlet row of 18 gates.

OBJECTIVE OF MOSE
Protect the lagoon, its town,
villages and inhabitants from
floods.
MOSE can protect the city from
tides up to 3m.

OPERATING PRINCIPLE
Under normal tidal conditions rest in their housing structures in sea bed
gates are full of water.
High tide forecasted compressed air is introduced into gates water gets
emptied rotates about the hinge axis rises up separates lagoon from sea.
When tide drops gates are again filled with water return to their housing.

ELEMENTS OF THE BARRIER
GATEGate made of steel.
Hinges (2 for each gate).
Caissons Gate housing made of concrete.
Plant tunnels.
Seabed consolidation elements.

CONSTRUCTION METHOD
Main elements prefabricated in basins away from inlet channels.
Use of temporary or permanent sheet piling reduce the dredging
volumes.
Main concrete structures - precasted in dry basins floated
transported to site sunk into their final position ballasted.
Mose Project & Maeslant Project8/14/2016 12
CONCRETE CAISSONS
Caissons are precast proper quality control possible.
Concrete grade more than or equal to 45 MPa high grade.
Proper curing dense and durable concrete.
Minimum cover 50 mm.
Prestressed prevent crack formation during hardening and curing
process.
Durability 100 years of useful life.

HINGE CONNECTORS
Gate is connected to the foundation two hinge connector assemblies.
Connector assembly consists of a spigot (male part) and a socket (female
part).
Spigot connected to the gate detachable.
Socket is cone shaped embedded in the reinforced concrete elements of the
foundation caisson.
Sockets installed 3 to 4 months after the caisson concreting their correct
position can be controlled.

BARRIER GATES
Gates are 20 m wide length between 18.5 and 29 m thickness 3.6 to 5 m.
Can withstand a differential of up to 1.8 m due to their buoyancy and mass.
For servicing gate can be transported by crane to a platform on the shore
replacement gate is substituted.
If silt deposited on the hinge when a gate has been removed flushing
system actuated prior to engagement of a replacement gate.

FACTORS CONTROLLING
CLOSURE OPERATION
Direct rainfall on the lagoon.
Inflow from the surrounding watershed.
Wind set up in the lagoon.
Flow through the three lagoon mouths during the closure operation.
Flow through gaps in the barriers and from overtopping after closure.
Mose Project & Maeslant Project8/14/2016 19
CONCLUSION
“Saving Venice” is an ongoing process needs interaction between science
and engineering.
Permanent solution for eradicating fear from the minds of the people.
MOSE system can protect Venice from tides of up to 3 meters.
Once ready, the MOSE system will be the largest dam structure in the world
with each barrier measuring 6500 square feet of area.
MOSE is necessary today, but will become indispensable in the future.
