The award of the contract will take place according to the criterion the most economically advantageous tender, through the award of up to a maximum of 80 points to the technical offer and up to a maximum of 20 points to the economic one. The port authority has specified that, in the definition of the rewarding criteria, he wanted give priority to proposals that can reduce the impacts of the construction site on the environment and activities of the port and including additional construction controls and monitoring structural structures subsequent to the realization of the works.
The basic amount of the tender is 49.4 million euros. The work will have a trapezoidal plan and will extend for about 16,900 square meters, allowing the approach of two ships from cruise of the latest generation along the two sides of the quay that they develop for 393 and 339 meters. The pier will be oriented in North-South direction, along a midline that forms an angle of about 50 ° with the descent Paita.
The pier will be built using cellular boxes resting on the seabed suitably consolidated with poles in gravel. The foot of the caissons will be protected with boulders "guardians" to avoid erosion produced by currents and the movement of the propellers of the ships. Positioning discontinuous of the caissons along the direction orthogonal to the line median of the pier (pier "open") will allow the recirculation of water within the first port basin and damping of the wave motion reflected by the docks.
