Materiali e progetto. Compatibilità e durabilità negli interventi di recupero e di restauro
Materials and project. Suitability and durability in recovery and restoration interventions. By addressing a special issue as one that include the relationship between “materials” and “project”, the goal is to address the issue of historical heritage recovery and valorization; it could be a “prototype” and model of interventions that are reproducible in all those town centres with has significant monumental, architectural and environmental features. The debate on intervention methodology (that in the past was mainly based on its effectiveness), after decades of application, tests and verification, has been enriched by a new topic: the physical, chemical and structural “suitability” between new materials (and technology, as well) and built heritage. In fact, any procedure and technique in recovery and restoration of built heritage can not ignore the knowledge of materials and constructive technology used for the construction of a building. The main problem in recovery interventions is to reconcile the different construction techniques and the 256 different materials (sometimes incompatible with the built heritage), and - more importantly - to relate the materials and technologies used in the “new” structures, in the “old” or “historical” ones, regardless of the inappropriate choices, disrespectful of static-functional-formal-chemical and physical balance well-established over the years. These days, rehabilitation is one of the central issues in architecture. To refurbish is to explore the intervention options for transforming the existing built heritage; this is accomplished by identifying and defining the interrelated and complex relationships between the building and the overall environmental system. Only by determining the environmental constraints and the degree of freedom allowed by preservation theory is it possible to arrive at a rehabilitation approach which operates as a balanced synthesis in the relationship between preservation, transformation, and use. It seems necessary, therefore, to develop a more ...
