ARX Brescia

Benvenuti to Brescia!

Brescia office was established as a "technical hub" to tap into the talent pool between the Lombardy and Veneto regions, adopting a more focused approach. The primary focus is on BIM, with a team strongly oriented towards innovation and Research & Development (R&D). This team was soon synergistically joined by a dedicated Structural Engineering section, specializing primarily in underground works, and a Geotechnical Engineering section. Rounding out the office's services is the Inspections and Assessment Group, dedicated to the assessment of existing structures and the design of rehabilitation works.
