Towards a Protocol for Tangible Cultural Heritage Digital Twin

Cultural heritage includes a large variety of historical masonry constructions. The identification of their structural behaviour is challenging due to the complexities of the masonry constructions and the evolution of multiple phases of construction. Advanced tools for geometric surveying and structural analysis can facilitate the preservation of the cultural heritage but transferring data between these tools remains an issue. In this chapter, we propose a critical discussion on the integration between informative models and digital twins by underling open issues e future perspectives.
