Procedure integrate di analisi e rilievo dell’Arco di Traiano a Benevento per il restauro e la valorizzazione

During restoration works carried out under the direction of the Archaeological Superintendence of Salerno, Avellino and Benevento, a three-dimensional survey was carried out aimed at the documentation of performed restoration works, setting-up for museum exhibitions and the monitoring of the Arco di Traiano in Benevento. The potentialities of 3D documentation are wide-ranging and not only limited to the cataloguing, but aimed at different kind of development: analysis of details, planning and structuring of restoration and conservation works, 3D printing to realize scaled copies without plaster cast operations, mapping of the state of conservation. The 3D model becomes a tool of knowledge and analysis, the use of which is expected to grow exponentially in the coming years, also in relation to the increase in computing power and graphical display of devices such as notebooks, tablets, smartphones and dissemination of "broadband" for the interconnection of data transmission

Chapter Modellazione semantica HBIM per la rappresentazione digitale dell’intervento sul patrimonio esistente

The 43rd UID conference, held in Genova, takes up the theme of ‘Dialogues’ as practice and debate on many fundamental topics in our social life, especially in these complex and not yet resolved times. The city of Genova offers the opportunity to ponder on the value of comparison and on the possibilities for the community, naturally focused on the aspects that concern us, as professors, researchers, disseminators of knowledge, or on all the possibile meanings of the discipline of representation and its dialogue with ‘others’, which we have broadly catalogued in three macro areas: History, Semiotics, Science / Technology. Therefore, “dialogue” as a profitable exchange based on a common language, without which it is impossible to comprehend and understand one another; and the graphic sign that connotes the conference is the precise transcription of this concept: the title ‘translated’ into signs, derived from the visual alphabet designed for the visual identity of the UID since 2017. There are many topics which refer to three macro sessions: - Witnessing (signs and history) - Communicating (signs and semiotics) - Experimenting (signs and sciences) Thanks to the different points of view, an exceptional resource of our disciplinary area, we want to try to outline the prevailing theoretical-operational synergies, the collaborative lines of an instrumental nature, the recent updates of the repertoires of images that attest and nourish the relations among representation, history, semiotics, sciences

Le nuove Information and Communication Technologies per la conoscenza e l’accessibilità del patrimonio culturale. Il progetto INCEPTION - Inclusive Cultural Heritage in Europe through 3D semantic modelling

A un anno dal suo avvio, il progetto “INCEPTION - Inclusive Cultural Heritage in Europe through 3D semantic modelling” porta al Salone del Restauro le più recenti innovazioni tecnologiche per il rilievo tridimensionale del patrimonio culturale, frutto delle prime attività di ricerca. Il progetto, finanziato dalla Commissione Europea nell’ambito del Work Programme "Europe in a changing world – inclusive, innovative and reflective Societies" (Call Reflective-7-2014, Advanced 3D modelling for accessing and understanding European cultural assets), a partire da metodologie innovative per il rilievo e la modellazione tridimensionale, si propone di sviluppare nuovi strumenti per l’interoperabilità e la condivisione inclusiva dei modelli tridimensionali verso nuove forme di accessibilità e conoscenza dell’identità del patrimonio culturale europeo

Characterization of the Pathogenic Potential of the Beach Sand Microbiome and Assessment of Quicklime as a Remediation Tool

Beach sand may act as a reservoir for potential human pathogens, posing a public health risk. Despite this, the microbiological monitoring of sand microbiome is rarely performed to determine beach quality. In this study, the sand microbial population of a Northern Adriatic Sea beach sand was profiled by microbiological (CFU counts) and molecular methods (WGS, microarray), showing significant presence of potential human pathogens including drug-resistant strains. Consistent with these results, the potential of quicklime as a restoring method was tested in vitro and on-field. Collected data showed that adding 1-3% quicklime (w/w) to sand provided an up to -99% of bacteria, fungi, and viruses, in a dose- and time-dependent manner, till 45 days post-treatment. In conclusion, data suggest that accurate monitoring of sand microbiome may be essential, besides water, to assess beach quality and safety. Moreover, first evidences of quicklime potential for sand decontamination are provided, suggesting its usage as a possible way to restore the microbiological quality of sand in highly contaminated areas

Dal rilievo al progetto di restauro nei contesti storici colpiti dal terremoto dell'Emilia-Romagna

The earthquake that hit Emilia in 2012 severely put to the test a strongly structured system, characterized by a historic and architectural heritage of great value and by traditions of settlements, constructions and cultures representative of a significant relational dimension between population and territory. The development of innovative analysis methodologies, and project proposals elaborated after the seismic events, have guided not only the criteria of reconstruction, but also the willingness to implement a strategic regeneration based on a model of innovative, qualitative and shared development. In such context campaigns of integrated survey have been carried out in emergency situations, and have called for important reflections on the issues, objectives and methodologies of intervention

Inclusività (im)morale

L’inclusività è (im)morale in una società che predica ogni sorta di pensiero possibile e dedica tempo, risorse ed energie alla costruzione sistematica di strutture segreganti. La segregazione è sempre alla soglia. Subdolamente, anche quando si crede di aver fatto entrare tutti, qualcuno resterà fuori (anche) per colpa di un designer o di un architetto. Ma non deve essere una scusa per imporsi una limitazione progettuale
