Cesare Sangiorgi is Associate Professor at DICAM. He works in the Transportation Infrastructures section of the Department and addresses the themes related to pavement materials and construction technology. The use of recycled materials and low-impact solutions are of primary importance in Dr. Sangiorgi’s research and the collaboration with renowned research institutes are the basis for the involvement of students at any level (Ph.D. and M.Sc.).
In the area of pavement materials, the link with the Nottingham Transportation Engineering Centre has been running since 2001 and was extended to other important research centers, such as the TU Delft in The Netherlands, the Pavement Research Center at Berkeley (University of California), the Centre for Pavement and Transportation Technology in Waterloo (University of Waterloo, Canada), the Centre of Subjects Allied to Built Environment Research (SABER) at Ulster University (UK), and the Centre for Materials and Building Technology (C-MADE) in Beira Interior (Portugal).
Since March 2018, Cesare Sangiorgi has been the coordinator of SAFERUP! an H2020 MSCA-ITN project based on Sustainable, Accessible, Safe, Resilient, and Smart Urban Pavements, which foresees the recruitment of 15 early-stage researchers in the group of 30 participants of the consortium.
