A dynamic and interactive system for managing the information about the reinforced concrete decay

Abstract

The paper presents the results derived from the systematic study of the most common and dangerous defects of Modern Architecture. The aim of the research is to create a system able to allow different kind of users to have easily access to the information related to the reinforced concrete decay pathologies and to the actions that is possible to carry out for their repairs. Nowadays the recovery of technical elements made by reinforced concrete is a topical subject because of the widespread of survey even if it is not much investigated and popularized. The information on this subject are not much systematized and computerized: for this reason is not always possible to establish, for each technical elements, a connection between the decay pathologies and the recovery actions. It is easy to understand that it is important to have a tool that can guide the users to retrieve these information and to compare them each other with the aim to select the best action for the recovery of a specific technical element affected by a particular decay pathology.
