Structural analysis and consolidation strategy of the historic Mediceo Aqueduct in Pisa (Italy)

The present work assesses the state of conservation of the historical Mediceo Aqueduct in Pisa, with classification of architectural elements, decay of materials and failures in view of the restoration. The preview of collapses and the design of interventions in a significant part of the aqueduct are performed. New masonry buttresses for the entire path with optimal distribution are determined to ensure safety and integrity to the monument.
