The Agenzia del Demanio (the Italian Public Property Agency) owns a significant portion of the State owned properties in Italy. It is crucial to have a clear and comprehensive overview of the static and seismic conditions of these various buildings and to be aware of any need for seismic retrofitting or improvement. The Inspection team conducted site visits to all the structures to identify any critical issues and develop customized investigation plans. Detailed topographic surveys were conducted on every type of building using total stations and laser scanners, with the data returned via Revit 3D, from which the plans were derived to create the necessary investigation plan to achieve a Level 3 of knowledge. Investigations were carried out on all types of structures, whether masonry, reinforced concrete, or steel, by technicians qualified for both destructive and nondestructive testing (NDT). Using ITS equipment, tests such as double and single flat jack tests, penetrometric tests, core drilling, localized scabbling, sclerometric tests, ultrasonic tests, rebar sampling, load tests, and foundation coring were conducted. The data obtained were used for structural modeling and vulnerability analysis, with the final phase involving the preparation of a PFTE based on the results.
