Overview of an outdoor installation at the Arts & Ocean Biennial, Nice 2025.

Structural stability studies for five outdoor installations at the 2025 Arts & Ocean Biennial in Nice, anchors and ballasts sized to Eurocode (coastal wind actions, accidental loads and public-load actions).

For each installation: analysis of the geometry and stability-critical points, then a chemical or mechanical anchor on existing substrates, or a dedicated ballast. Deliverables: calculation note, layout drawing and an installation-contractor schematic, with tolerances and an on-site acceptance procedure. Liaison with Socotec, the inspection body engaged on this project.
