TECNOLOGIE DEL RECUPERO EDILIZIO M - Z

The course is directed to the knowledge of the issues of housing and urban regeneration, providing tools for the existent knowledge and leading the project for the conservation and the transformation of the built heritage.

It aims to provide knowledge on the construction and technological system specifically aimed at highlighting the identifying characteristics of a place, whether urban or suburban, built or not through the concepts of:

§ Recovery;
§ Redevelopment ;
§ Reuse;
§ Maintenance;
§ Urban Regeneration;
§ Management of the built heritage;
§ self-made recovery;
§ urban regeneration processes localized.
The course then gives the tools to manage the design of the existing through a stage design goal that, by the needs of users directed towards design scenarios feasible. This moment will be accompanied by a technical background related to the recovery techniques of individual technical elements.

The Building recovery, a practice that stems from greater consideration for the built heritage, from a general welfare and needs for technological innovation, is a unique process which involves a transformation project, a modification seeks recovery of memory. There is therefore only one field within which the transformation processes have to be activated, that of conservation that involves the full range of actions, from the total storage innovation more thrust and what unifies them is the methodological choice: the theme of 'urban and historical identity. To achieve this end is a process of knowledge necessary to articulate, diagnostic process in all respects, which identifies disease, failure, degradation, causes and agents.

The technology, in this context, the active intervention process through the acquisition of information and manages the flow through the process of knowledge. Technique and technology are the tools for a conscious design of the restoration project; it is governed through the retention rate - change according to the needs of users and is expressed through a series of indications and design scenarios, derived from the cognitive process.

The need to limit the changes requires the restoration project to report the actions to parameters that can not only identify the 'uniqueness' of an underlying asset, but also to ensure the ability to integrate new scenarios to the existing, by controlling the processing / preservation process. In this case, the culture of recovery is expressed by saying that, if on one hand it is necessary to verify the context and the object of the intervention, on the other, especially in Italy, the recovery processes are governed by the possibility of translation of the outcomes cultural, social and economic,

"Inextricably linked to knowledge and the beliefs, knowledge and to hear the whole and very large architectural territory. In fact it, in all its denotations scientific, technical, cultural, architectural and engineering, social, historical, economic, productive feeding with its history and composite and polytechnic education every action of conservation and transformation of our environment and shows it every meaning and representation "[i].
