Learning outcomes

The laboratory provides the knowledge to realize 3D surveys and non-destructive diagnostics activities , in order to reach a structural knowledge of the buildings.

The student will work on a real case (building, tower, bell tower, statue) with historical and architectural interest. A 3D survey will be planned and executed by photogrammetric techniques integrated with non destructive and minor destructive diagnostic techniques as for example IR thermography, GPR radar and sonic tomography.

Course contents

The most significant part of the course is designed to practical activities on the field and in the laboratory, by means of commercial, scientific and open source programs.

The course introduces the use of instruments dedicated to the realization of three-dimensional surveys and non destructive tests on building's portions .

Each technique adopted will be theoretically briefly described than a complete survey of an object with historical and architectural interest will be realized.

The data processing will furnish the geometric documentation of the object analyzed by means of vector data and raster elaborates with high degree of detail and will show the health-state knowledge (inhomogeneities, defects, decays) of some materials' and structural elements' portions.
