perimeter of the great void, at ml. -0.40 level. It is supported by structural glass beams, about ml. 2.00 long, that are attached to steel beams holding up the nave’s ceiling, set back from the edge of the void. Steel corners halve the free span of the glass beams, suspending them to the perimeter cantilevered of the nave’s floor. There would not exist other examples, at least in Italy, of such glass cantilevered beams.The glass balustrade, projected to be dismantled into modules of ml. 1,5, as well as the walkway, in order to avoid the waste in cutting bars of ml. 6.00, is fixed by points to the free ends of the glass beams. Wooden benches are placed on a wooden platform, which is put up on the floor in earthenware. Among the benches, those placed parallel to the longer sides of the void space, which are divided into two seats, can be also placed in two different orientations, by a manual rotation around a steel pin with a block. Then, along the transverse position, a mechanism lets the backs rotate to become a working plan for those sitting on the bench behind. Size, number and placement are determined by the optimum width for the working plan and the platform’s width (ml. 1.40), which, in turn, is depends on the size of the side route (ml. 1.20). The benches near the entrance and the high altar are fixed. The system cables, including heating coils, are placed through the floor in earthenware.
