Two internal steel frames and three upper tie-rods strengthening the historic Kino Lumbardhi auditorium01

Prizren, Kosovo · Heritage structures

Kino Lumbardhi

Project roleConservation Engineer
Main tasks
  • Designed and supervised the structural investigations
  • Structural assessment
  • Designed the structural interventions

Structural investigation and conservation-led strengthening of a culturally significant cinema. The work combined visual survey, pioneering NDT and MASW investigations, numerical assessment, emergency stabilisation and a targeted intervention with two internal steel frames, three upper tie-rods and a flat-steel curb at the perimeter wall heads.

  • Two internal steel frames
  • Three upper tie-rods
  • Historic timber roof
  • NDT + MASW
  • Nonlinear analysis
  • Strengthening design

Gjakova Municipal Building

Project roleMain Structural Engineer
Main tasks
  • Designed and supervised the structural investigations
  • Structural assessment
  • Comparative studies
  • Designed the new building
  • Drafted the construction documents: Professional Reports, BoQ, Technical Specifications and Price Schedules

A complete investigation of an existing reinforced-concrete municipal building. Geometry, reinforcement and material properties were established through a coordinated testing campaign, creating dependable inputs and confidence factors for Eurocode 8 seismic assessment.

The historic Loreta complex in Prague03

Prague, Czech Republic · Heritage structures

Loreta Historic Roofs

Project roleJunior Researcher
Main tasks
  • Structural assessment of the historic roof
  • Structural stratigraphy and causes of deterioration
  • Advanced numerical models
  • Application of cutting-edge non-destructive tools

Structural assessment of the south-west wing timber roofs at the Loreta complex. Survey evidence and numerical modelling were used to interpret deformation, verify structural response and define minimally invasive conservation measures.

  • Historic timber
  • Survey interpretation
  • Finite-element analysis
  • Conservation strategy

Structural analysis of the Romanesque Church of Barrô06

Barrô, Portugal · Heritage structures

Barrô Romanesque Church

Project roleJunior Researcher
Main tasks
  • Structural assessment
  • Photogrammetric survey
  • Non-destructive testing campaign
  • Causes of deterioration
  • Advanced numerical models
