“…Similar to seismic imaging, radar echoing returned by impinged signal reveals geological structures beneath the topographic surface. This technique has evolved under the name of ground penetrating radar (GPR) and has been applied to a broad range of studies, including glaciology (Annan and Davis, 1976;Arcone, 1996;Arcone et al, 2005;Bradford et al, 2009aBradford et al, , 2009bForte et al, 2013;Godio et al, 2015;Colucci et al, 2016;Del Gobbo et al, 2016;Godio and Rege, 2016;Santin et al, 2019), structural and sedimentary geology (Grasmueck, 1996;Bristow and Jol, 2003;Pipan et al, 2003;Neal, 2004;Ercoli et al, 2012), paleoenvironmental reconstructions (Pellicer et al, 2012;Tillmann and Wunderlich, 2014;Liu et al, 2019), seismotectonics (Liner, 1997;McClymont et al, 2008;Ercoli et al, 2014;Cinti et al, 2015), geotechnical engineering (Liu and Xie, 2013), and archaeology (Daniels, 2004;Jol, 2009;Solla et al, 2011;Ercoli et al, 2016;Kowalczyk et al, 2017;Casas et al, 2018). The GPR represents a powerful noninvasive imaging technique that is capable of collecting data from the subsurface with high spatial resolution in a relatively short time.…”

“…Most of the difficulties are related to the morphologic and architectural accessibility (Baiocchi, 2014;Dardanelli, 2017). In order to realize a three-dimensional model of the Basilica an integrated techniques survey activity was performed as it's often needed in such studies (Ercoli 2016;Brigante, 2014;Di salvo, 2014;Dominici, 2013); the planning has been based on the available bi-dimensional maps ( fig. 7).…”

ABSTRACT:The historical building heritage, present in the most of Italian cities centres, is, as part of the construction sector, a working potential, but unfortunately it requires planning of more complex and problematic interventions. However, policies to support on the existing interventions, together with a growing sensitivity for the recovery of assets, determine the need to implement specific studies and to analyse the specific problems of each site. The purpose of this paper is to illustrate the methodology and the results obtained from integrated laser scanning activity in order to have precious architectural information useful not only from the cultural heritage point of view but also to construct more operative and powerful tools, such as BIM (Building Information Modelling) aimed to the management of this cultural heritage. The Papal Basilica and the Sacred Convent of Saint Francis in Assisi in Italy are, in fact, characterized by unique and complex peculiarities, which require a detailed knowledge of the sites themselves to ensure visitor's security and safety. For such a project, we have to take in account all the people and personnel normally present in the site, visitors with disabilities and finally the needs for cultural heritage preservation and protection. This aim can be reached using integrated systems and new technologies, such as Internet of Everything (IoE), capable of connecting people, things (smart sensors, devices and actuators; mobile terminals; wearable devices; etc.), data/information/knowledge and processes to reach the desired goals. The IoE system must implement and support an Integrated Multidisciplinary Model for Security and Safety Management (IMMSSM) for the specific context, using a multidisciplinary approach.

“…Heavy rain falls and flooding recently struck many parts of Europe, causing heavy damages and the collapse of important heritage structures. The city walls of Amelia [8], Italy, Cockermouth Castle, UK [9,10], and the fortress of Magliano (Figure 1) [11], also in Italy, are examples of heritage masonry structures recently collapsed or damaged due to water-related issues. If water penetrates from the ground, the rising damp phenomenon occurs.…”

Architectural heritage is deeply threatened by extreme weather events due to ongoing climatic change. Since these phenomena are becoming more and more serious, their effects cannot be neglected when a reliable assessment of a historic masonry structure is required. In this paper, the phenomenon of rising damp was studied, focusing on the influence of water on the unit weight of masonry walls made from fired clay bricks and lime mortar. This study consists of a basic experimental research on the variations in the unit weight of masonry undergoing an ageing treatment, which was simulated through some cycles of capillary water absorption and temperature changes. The experimental study proves that penetrating damp causes an increase in masonry unit weight of more than 20%. This basic result is significant in the structural assessment of historic masonry buildings. Subsequent papers will analyze the interaction with strengths parameters.
