HBIM for the preservation of a historic infrastructure: the Carlo III bridge of the Carolino Aqueduct

The research on Carlo III bridge in Moiano (Benevento, Italy) has been an opportunity for testing the HBIM methodology to the architectural heritage in terms of not only gathering information but as a design tool. The bridge, almost without previous drawings and documents, was surveyed with an integrated approach using laser scanner, photogrammetry and topography. Data produced a metrically reliable HBIM model, complete with graphical and non-graphical information, to be used in a maintenance and restoration project.
