RESTORATION OF MONUMENTAL ASSETS

Structural safety and seismic retrofitting of masonry buildings are issues of current and significant importance within civil society. Numerous structures require structural reinforcement, and numerous seismic events have affected and continue to affect Italy over the years. Therefore, the need has emerged for ensure adequate performance of the facilities to current regulations and to numerous […]

The OLYMPUS STONE FACED WALLS systems are based on the technique of reinforced repointing of the joints and is particularly suitable for the structural reinforcement of exposed masonry where, for aesthetic and conservation reasons, it is not possible to adopt traditional or innovative consolidation techniques that in any way cover the facing. This technique is therefore […]

The FRCM and CRM structural consolidation systems represent a highly effective solution for ensuring structural consolidation interventions are fully compatible with the reversibility criteria required for interventions carried out on Italian cultural heritage. A seismic consolidation and improvement intervention carried out as part of a conservative restoration must guarantee compliance with reversibility. In relation to […]

The reinforced plaster systems CRM (Composite Reinforced Mortar) represents the modern evolution of the traditional reinforced plaster method. In recent decades, the technique of reinforcing load-bearing masonry structures using reinforced plaster made of fine-grained concrete, often cement-based, reinforced with electro-welded steel mesh, has become widespread. Over the years, this technique has shown its limitations and has […]
