HISTORIC URBAN CENTERS. CONSTRUCTION CHARACTERS AND SEISMIC VULNERABILITY

2018

Parallelamente alla redazione di una micro-zonazione sismica che evidenzi le differenti risposte al sisma che i vari ambiti offrono in termini di amplificazione delle onde sismiche al suolo, in relazione alla stratigrafia e all’orografia del terreno, si rivela fondamentale conoscere e prevedere gli effetti di un sisma sul sistema urbano. È fondamentale quindi effettuare un’analisi del patrimonio costruito esistente al fine di conoscerne le caratteristiche, valutarne il livello di vulnerabilità ed individuare una scala di priorità di intervento, approfondendo in particolare l’indagine sui centri storici, contesti di particolare complessità, interesse storico e potenziale vulnerabilità. A par…

New Inhabitants for the Re-use of Historical Territories in South-Eastern Sicily

2021

In spite of the multifaceted criticalities that characterise the Sicilian territory, South-Eastern Sicily appears to be of particular interest due to the active role that distinguishes it from the rest of the Island. The transformation processes taking place in South-Eastern Sicily, in fact, seem to be guided by new perspectives of sustainability, local development and good governance. The mix obtained from the extraordinary amount of tangible and intangible resources, from some favourable socio-cultural circumstances and from the creation of new transportation infrastructures, has contributed to promoting new forms of reuse of the historical building heritage by Italian and overseas invest…

Il progetto I-Access: implementare l'accessibilità nell'uso e nella conoscenza dei centri storici urbani

2021

This paper describes the INTERREG Italy-Malta 1/16 project, of which the Department of Architecture was the beneficiary. The proposal, in the disciplinary field of restoration, aims to create action-learning to be applied in the historic quarters of Palermo and Valletta by implementing an integrated, totally, interdisciplinary working method; it embraces the degree of physical accessibility (with the design of architectural interventions and the provision of technological-IT assistance tools for a smoother passage), and a cultural one, which is expressed via the 'networking' of virtual communication for areas that cannot be easily reached and in parallel educational action that works on ove…

“Houses for One Euro” and the Territory. Some Estimation Issues for the “Geographic Debt” Reduction

2020

The phenomenon of the “houses for one Euro” is the epitome of the progressive and increasing abandonment of the inland territories in which many small towns are affected by continuous and unstoppable depopulation. This process, mostly affecting the southern and insular Italian regions, have been triggered by the quick industrial development started after the second post-war, led by the northern regions, that deeply and irreversibly modified the anthropography of the whole country until now. The impoverishment of a wide part of the Italian territory, is one of the many issues connected to the social-territorial justice that is the original topic by which appraisal and valuation, that is scie…

Peripheral Centralities: An Integrated Approach

2017

Un profondo cambiamento caratterizza a livello globale gli insediamenti urbani: ciò può essere osservato attraverso le relazioni tra centro e periferie. Le aree periferiche sono il banco dove il futuro delle città può essere opportunamente messo alla prova, in cui è possibile prefigurare la futura qualità della vita di individui e comunità. Sicurezza, sostenibilità, benessere che potranno essere raggiunti nelle aree periferiche saranno più rilevanti in termini quantitativi; invece il senso di identificazione e appartenenza, più forte nelle aree centrali, è debole o assente nelle periferie. Occorre puntare quindi a una sorta di centralità diffusa, applicando un approccio integrato, che si ad…
