Caso studio • Dissesto idrogeologico La frana di Niscemi: dal rischio mappato alla modellazione 3D e alle analisi di stabilità Un approccio integrato: GeoRisk per la pericolosità, GeoStru Maps per la ricostruzione tridimensionale, Slope (LEM+DEM) per la stabilità 2D/3D e Debris Flow per i fenomeni rapidi. Perché questo evento è importante La frana di Niscemi…
The BEP (BIM Execution Plan) is a fundamental document in the design, construction, and management of projects using the BIM (Building Information Modeling) methodology. It is an operational guide that defines how BIM should be used in a specific project and ensures that all involved parties collaborate effectively and in a coordinated manner. A Bit…
BIM (Building Information Modeling) refers to the entire process of planning, creating, and optimizing constructions and infrastructures using various software tools. The geometric model (the 3D rendering of the infrastructure) is accompanied by data for each individual component: properties and characteristics that follow a standardized format, allowing software to correctly interpret the information related to…
Among the various requirements and details needed—following the IDS and BEP—there is the LOD, an acronym for “Level of Definition” in the UK architectural model from PAS 1192, or “Level of Development” of an element in a BIM model, considering the American model. This variation in terms arises because the American model prefers the concept…
On 13th of June, 2024, the AI Act 1 was approved through the EU Regulation 2024/1689 (published on July 12, 2024), aimed at regulating the use of artificial intelligence (AI) to ensure safe, transparent, and ethical use. The regulation seeks to ensure that AI systems placed on the European market and used in the EU…
The design of earthworks, i.e. structures built using loose soil, has as its main objective the creation of constructions that remain stable over time, guaranteeing adequate safety margins. The performance required varies according to the type of work: for example, for an earthen dam or a river embankment it is essential to ensure hydraulic impermeability,…
When carrying out the stability analysis of a slope using the well-established software Geostru Slope Stability analysis – Slope, the user has the option of placing a retention structures of his choice : Walls, Piles, Ground Anchor and Reinforced soil. Selecting the latter will open the module Reinforced Earth – MRE. We speak of a…
Preliminary sizing of naturalistic engineering works is one of the most important operations to be carried out before the detailed design of the works, certainly preceding technical checks and subsequent final sizing. Having quick and efficient tools at your disposal to perform initial checks and assess whether the chosen techniques can solve the issues has…
Integrare il BIM nella Geotecnica e nella Geologia. Come definito dal NIBS (National Institute of Building Sciences), il Building Information Modeling è “una rappresentazione digitale delle caratteristiche fisiche e funzionali di una struttura, una risorsa di conoscenza condivisa di informazioni che costituisce una base affidabile per qualsiasi decisione lungo il suo ciclo di vita, dalla…
Important news in the latest update of the GeoStru software Retaining walls – MDC, in fact, it is now possible to design and verify retaining walls of the gabion and block type. In this article, we will quickly look at how to set up a gabion and block wall. Premise on calculations in gabions and…
