Team-driven documentation of civil structures

This paper explores precedents in Amatrice and Padua as a point of departure for an ideal documentation and survey project for the Circumetnea, a minor Sicilian railway system. This transportation network includes several bridges due for structural review, offer- ing an opportunity to apply best practices informed by an interdisciplinary lens through which to explore the history of the circuit’s construction, its structural behavior and potential cultural value for local stakeholders and visitors alike.
