HBIM for restoration project and data management of a religious complex

Abstract

The paper presents the first results of a research project aimed at digitizing the restoration process of the monastic complex of Santa Maria a Graiano, located in Fontecchio (AQ). The parametric model allows the management of heterogeneous data derived from multidisciplinary knowledge processes and facilitates data sharing. The representative modelling of the artefact after the damage caused by the 2009 earthquake, to which the planned restoration operations were linked, compared to the parametric model of the artefact after restoration, allowed cooperation between different professionals, in addition to the documentation of the work carried out. In this way, the model assumes a central role in the knowledge process but also the heritage management process as it facilitates the choice of conservation strategies to be implemented on the asset in future years and to preserve the memory of the interventions carried out, simplifying the maintenance process in the as-built phase.
