Type: Research contract between the Municipality of Verona and Politecnico di Milano
The objective of this project was the maintenance of the cavea of the amphitheatre through the restoration of the mortar joints.
The diagnostic project included a survey of the draining systems, an analysis of the water infiltrations and a thermographic mapping of the water leakage through vaults and masonry structures.
The results of this research, along with a study of the effects of the traditional practice of adding some metallic materials to the plaster, were used to investigate and develop the most appropriate materials and mixtures for case-sepcific interventions.
