Agnese Scalbi

Agnese Scalbi is an Assistant Professor in the Department of the Built Environment at Eindhoven University of Technology. Her research focuses on structural health monitoring, sustainable construction materials, and infrastructure maintenance strategies, with a particular emphasis on concrete structures and non-destructive testing methods. She actively contributes to UN Sustainable Development Goals related to resilient infrastructure and sustainable cities.

Her work involves innovative applications such as evaluating defects in layered materials using thermography, optimizing maintenance plans for aging bridges, and developing eco-friendly mortars with recycled plastic aggregates. Scalbi collaborates on projects like ReCreate, exploring precast concrete systems and diaphragm action in modular construction.

Key contributions include advancing methodologies for bridge vulnerability assessment at regional scales and improving the accuracy of defect detection in concrete structures. Her research outputs span peer-reviewed articles and conference proceedings, addressing both theoretical and applied aspects of structural engineering.
