From 1876 he taught projective geometry and graphic statics at the Polytechnic in Milan as an associate professor, from 1890 as a professor. In 1912 he retired. He also dealt with algebraic geometry, mechanics and elasticity theory and translated Rudolf Sturm's “Elements of Descriptive Geometry” into Italian (with extensions). He is the author of the article "Geometry of the Masses" in the Encyclopedia of Mathematical Sciences .
