ABSTRACT

Recently, the scientific community is working on Historic Building Information Modelling and Management (HBIMM) in order to improve the interoperability among information/data in different types and formats. This circumstance has traditionally led to difficulties and errors in knowledge, diagnosis and refurbishment. The proposal of the operative method has been tested for managing the historical buildings’ knowledge system by using relational databases and time parameter creating a 4D-HBIMM simulation for diagnosis of decay and settlements toward data computing. The information, as BIM parameters, refers to historical and constructive evolution, previous interventions, crack patterns and degradation condition of an Augustinian Monastery (southern Italy), as a sample of an agglomeration of buildings, interested by previous refurbishment interventions, decay and kinematic movements. The advantage is the rapid data consultation and the possibility of comparison between geometric-typological and pre-diagnostic information in order to understand the actual causes of the decay and kinematic settlements.
