Thursday 15 December a meeting with academics from Italy and Switzerland organized by the courses in Civil Engineering
An innovative environmentally friendly mixture developed for load-bearing structures in the building sector and offshore wind farms, located at sea and far from the coasts, will be the main topics addressed during the next seminar organized by the Civil Engineering degree courses of the University of the Republic of San Marino.
By inviting academics from institutions such as the University of Bologna and the Haute Ecole d'Ingenierie et de Gestion du Canton de Vaud, in Switzerland, the initiative will offer students, professionals and others an opportunity to discover and update together with prestigious figures. Scheduled from 9 am on Thursday 15 December in the university headquarters of the World Trade Center in Dogana, on the third floor of tower B, the seminar will deal in detail with the economic and design dynamics of sustainable wind farms with a view to large-scale diffusion: the speaker on the subject will be Nicholas Fantuzzi, a professor at the University of Bologna.
After him, the floor to Marco Viviani of the Haute Ecole d'Ingenierie et de Gestion du Canton de Vaud: the professor of Sustainable Construction Techniques will offer an insight into shotearth, a particular mixture of materials in which recycled earth and sand are mixed : reducing the water and cement content, it is proposed as an environmentally friendly formula guaranteeing the characteristics required by the modern civil construction industry. The seminar, free and open to the public, will be attended by the director of the Civil Engineering degree courses of the University of San Marino, Angelo Marcello Tarantino, together with the professors Andrea Grilli and Michele Bacciocchi.
The initiative, sponsored by the Secretariat of State for Education and Culture, will take place in collaboration with the Order of Engineers and Architects of Titano, the Provincial College of Surveyors and Graduate Surveyors of Rimini, the College of Surveyors of San Marino and the Order of Engineers of the Province of Rimini. It is part of the dissemination activity of the project "Reuse of demolition materials and excavated earth for the circular economy of road infrastructure construction and maintenance works: development and applicability proposals in the Republic of San Marino".
