Abstract
Abstract. This paper presents the methodological framework set up for the analysis, interpretation, and representation of the banded vaulted systems recognized in eleven Baroque atria in Turin. In these atria, the banded vaults, locally named “a fascie”, are featured by a series of arches orthogonal to the perimeter walls on which they rest. The arches divide the room’s ceiling into spaces that can accommodate small vaults of different shapes. The atria have been the subject of bibliographical, historical and documentary analyses, laser scanner metric survey, two-dimensional graphic representations, and interpretative hypotheses through three-dimensional modeling of the design’s geometries of the vaults.The integration between terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) technique, architectural drawing and three-dimensional modeling methods led to the definition of new workflows, aimed at optimizing the use of data. From these procedures new opportunities for the research arise, such as the comparison (metric and geometric) through the superimposition of design ideal models and point clouds.

Summary
The banded vaulted systems are one of the main covers for medium and large-sized rooms in Piedmontese Baroque palaces. The documentation of each atrium’s peculiarities and the recognizing as an element of a network of similar buildings can address to coordinated safeguard and restoration strategies as well as initiatives for the valorization (Jiménez Fernández-Palacios et al, 2013) through the creation of paths aimed at cultural tourism, as experimented in previous researches by our group (Spallone Vitali, 2017b) For this reason, these atria have been the subject of bibliographical, historical and documentary analyses, laser scanner metric survey, two-dimensional graphic representations, and interpretative hypotheses through threedimensional modeling of the design’s geometries of the vaults, these last referring to coeval architectural literature.
