Dr. Pietro Meriggi is an assistant professor in structural engineering at the Department of Civil, Computer Science and Aeronautical Technologies Engineering of Roma Tre University. He is a member of the Structures Research Group and lecturer for the MSc Course of Sustainable Structural Design and Retrofitting. He earned his Ph.D. in Civil Engineering (2021), Master’s degree in Civil Engineering for the Protection of Territory from Natural Risks (2017), and Bachelor’s Degree in Civil Engineering (2014), from Roma Tre University. Additionally, he was a visiting Ph.D. student at Navier Laboratory—IFSTTAR (2020). Dr. Meriggi's scientific field of interest is the analysis, monitoring and preservation of existing and historical buildings, with a particular focus in the conservation of cultural heritage. His research focuses principally on laboratory and field testing of both traditional and innovative materials and of full-scale masonry structural members; analytical and numerical (discrete element modelling—DEM) analysis of the static and seismic behaviour of masonry constructions; development and design of composite systems for structural strengthening (FRCM, CRM); and non-destructive surveying and monitoring of existing structures with innovative digital systems (digital photogrammetry and image/video processing techniques).
