A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
Towards a catalogue of Sardinian WWII Heritage. The protection of Quartu Sant’Elena and its territory
The essay shows the results of a research aimed at building a digital database of Sardinian military architectures of Second World War. Following an activity of knowledge and cataloguing entrusted to digital survey methods already employed in other case studies, this contribute analyses the IIWW heritage placed in territory of Quartu Sant’Elena, a centre close to Cagliari in the south coast of the island. Many examples of these “sentinels” are positioned along the coastline and the country road and within the actual urban context; these architectures follow the indication of design models indicated by the archival documents using square and circle shape often modified and adapted to achieve a complete mimesis in the landscape that host them. In our case study we found bunkers that seems little churches, houses and water tanks located in a restricted area close to the Simbirizzi lake, in which an integrated (direct, instrumental, and photogrammetric) survey has been carried out.
