Researcher in Integrated Methodology for Knowledge, Conservation and Adaptive Reuse of Historic Buildings

The research programme aims to develop an integrated methodology for the knowledge, conservation, and adaptive reuse of complex historic buildings, using the former Church of the Benedictines in Piacenza as a case study. The work will integrate advanced geomatic surveying, HBIM modelling, historical and construction analysis, material diagnostics, and structural, geotechnical, energy, and environmental assessments. The research will focus on integrating geometric, material, and conservation data within an information model and defining procedures for managing uncertainty and knowledge levels. Innovative approaches for coordinating investigations and design phases will also be assessed, culminating in a multidisciplinary decision-support protocol.
