-Step1 (on desk): census of the works and their main characteristics by collecting available information and documentation.
-Step2 (on site): Visual inspections, verification of reliability of collected data, and collection of additional information on the actual geometric and structural characteristics of the work.
-Step3 (on desk): calculation of the class of attention, the focus of the analysis, i.e., classification of the work according to the logical flows defined by MIT, divided into 5 Classes. Depending on the class in which the work falls, the analyses to which it will be subjected will have a different degree of difficulty and depth.
