Diagnostics and Monitoring of the Church of San Barbaziano in Bologna

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper presents a diagnostic campaign carried out in an old church located in the historic center of Bologna. The campaign's objective is to evaluate the mechanical properties, the texture, the defects, and the state of preservation of the masonry. In addition, the campaign aims to assess the state of the crack pattern and monitor its changes over time. To achieve these aims several non-destructive methods and sensors have been used for structural health monitoring.
