In occasione del centenario di Garbatella, il Dipartimento di Architettura di Roma Tre ha promosso il progetto Garbatella 20/20 e numerose attività interdisciplinari per la divulgazione della conoscenza del patrimonio storico e culturale del quartiere, in collaborazione con la cittadinanza e con diverse istituzioni.Nell’ambito del progetto, i corsi di Restauro dell’ultimo anno delle lauree magistrali hanno organizzato un laboratorio didattico che ha coinvolto più di cento studenti e si è avvalso della straordinaria partecipazione dell’artista Pietro Ruffo, con il quale è stata sperimentata per la prima volta una didattica integrata tra arte e architettura. Gli studenti hanno prodotto contenuti inediti per la conoscenza di Garbatella e hanno restituito la ricchezza dell’identità urbana, architettonica e sociale del quartiere attraverso letture analitiche e composizioni artistico-figurative. Sono state inoltre elaborate proposte progettuali per il restauro del contesto, con particolare attenzione al rapporto tra spazi pubblici e privati. On the occasion of the centenary of Garbatella, the Department of Architecture of Roma Tre launched the program Garbatella 20/20. This initiative included various interdisciplinary activities for the dissemination of knowledge about the historical and cultural heritage of the district, in collaboration with the citizens and many institutions. Within the program, the Restoration courses of the last year of the Master’s Degrees organized a workshop. More than one hundred students benefited from the extraordinary participation of the artist Pietro Ruffo, with whom they explored an integrated didactic approach between art and architecture for the first time. The students produced new content to further enhance understanding of Garbatella and analyzed the richness of the urban, architectural and social identity of the neighborhood through analytical readings and artistic-figurative compositions. Design proposals for the restoration of the context were developed, with particular attention to the relationship between public and private spaces.

3D survey and advanced modeling in the study of the Forts of Rome: the Forte Monte AntenneIn the studies the authors are conducting on the entrenched camp of Rome, 3D surveys and digital models are used as means to understand constructions with the aim of developing restoration and re-utilization projects. For Forte Monte Antenne (1882-1891), the authors have carried out systematic studies of the formal and structural aspects. The data acquired from a direct survey and with laser scanner, drone and photogrammetry, integrated with data obtained from iconographic and bibliographic sources, were integrated in the creation of a digital model, which made the classification of the various elements in a structured database possible, including the verification of the relationship among the parts at varying levels, and the system of aeration ducts. Convective motions and the thermo-hygrometric and visual comfort within some of the environments, as well as thermographic surveys of the walls were conducted. The BIM model was integrated, therefore, with a MEP model. The hypothesis of restoration and possible adaptation to new functions cannot disregard the analysis of those parameters which complete the picture of environmental quality and thus of the effective potentials in repurposing of the structure.

For the last fifteen years the Faculty of Architecture at the University of Roma Tre, has been working on the famous Villa Adriana in Tivoli, studying its ruins and its ancient paths, in order to better understand how the villa was originally laid out. In this paper, we will talk about one of these studies, which reconnect previous works and creates a new GIS based map of Villa Adriana. The goal of this study is to create a cultural heritage evaluation. In order to achieve this aim, we have created a multimedia guide with text, drawings, 3D reconstructions and augmented reality. This work can be summarized in five steps; first of all, a new georeferenced plan was created. This drawing is based on an orthophoto and brings together all existing surveys (from historical drawings to recent surveys). In this new work we show the current status of the ruins and the original layout of Villa Adriana according to the most recent study. The second step was a 3D survey, with extensive use of photogrammetry to verify and upgrade drawings. The next and third step involved creating the Database, within which to store, edit, analyze, share, and display linked data relating to both ancient and contemporary buildings and pathways. This GIS is based on the new plan and gathers together different orders of information: original function, paving, the old paths of each original user (Hadrian, his wife Sabina, the retinue, guests and servants) as well as the ancient system of underground tunnels. It collects all the existing data relating to Villa Adriana relevant to solving the "what/where" question. The fourth step was to create a complete 3D model of Villa Adriana. The 3D reconstruction started from the existing surveys, the documentation of recent excavation and the input of the hypothetical reconstruction of lost or buried buildings. Finally we created a multimedia guide, based on a mobile app, which took information from the database to show, in real time, during the tour, where you are and what you can see around you. With this app it's possible to read information about the villa's original layout, or you can access information about the ancient users (their lives and paths). You can also see 3D reconstructions of the buildings around you.
