Rehabilitation Operations in Residential Buildings in La Mina Neighborhood (S. Adrià del Besòs, Barcelona)
This chapter describes the physical operations of reforming and improving the accessibility, habitability and security of La Mina’s buildings. La Mina, which was built between 1968 and 1974, is comprised of 2,727 social dwellings in Sant Adrià del Besòs, a city close to the border of Barcelona. The usual techniques of the time were used in its construction. In the first phase, reinforced concrete was used for the structures and ceramic bricks for the exterior enclosures, and in its second and final phase the tunnel formwork technique, which was then new, and reinforced concrete panels for exterior enclosures were used. In some of the operations that were carried out, specific improvements were implemented. However, many of the rehabilitation operations that are described, such as the renovation of facilities, the addition of elevators or the reduction of energy loss from the exterior enclosure, could be applied in other situations to buildings constructed in the same period and urban context.
