Infrastructure & Building

Architectural, structural and building-services design: Mare Group integrates specialist engineering expertise and digital technologies for mission-critical infrastructure, sustainable data centres, renewable energy and civil construction. With the integration of La SIA, the sector covers surveys, structural investigations, diagnostic testing and the design of upgrading works, including seismic risk. In 2026 the sector won orders on strategic national infrastructure, including the Northern Lot of a Trenitalia tender (€5.4 million) for the safety of railway maintenance facilities.

The life cycle

Critical infrastructure and the built heritage require expertise across the asset’s entire life cycle. Through its La SIA division, Mare Group follows every stage, from digital survey to in-service management, with BIM as the enabling language.

3D laser scanner and drone surveys, Scan to BIM: the existing asset — building, infrastructure or heritage site — becomes a digital model to design upon.
