Abstract

This paper presents and illustrates recent local restoration of Dacians in the upper part of the Constantine’s Arch in Rome. The eight statues standing on entablature of columns sixteen meters above ground level are fastened to the main body of the arch by round iron bars driven inside the statue and the arch wall section. During summer 2013 observation from a telescopic truck crane re-vealed deterioration of connections which appeared rusted and broken. The paper deals with methodology of interventions as well as numeri-cal analysis carried out to establish efficiency of connectors against earthquakes. Results obtained by simple rigid body behaviour and by finite element analysis are presented and discussed.
