This studio focuses on Structural Strengthening and Rehabilitation, aiming to evaluate existing structures and propose suitable retrofitting measures. The course emphasized field visits to various aged and heritage structures, allowing detailed observation of structural issues such as cracks, material deterioration, deformations, and signs of distress. Analytical modeling was carried out using DIANA FEA software, enabling a deeper understanding of structural behavior and identification of critical zones. Strengthening strategies were then proposed based on the analysis outcomes.
