Abstract
On April 6th 2009 the L’Aquila territory suffered the consequences of a major earthquake. Immediately it turned out the necessity of carrying out an efficient reconstruction able to give a more sustainable dimension to the territory than that of the situation before the catastrophic event. We started a study about the control of new buildings design picking, aiming to prevent the need of constructing buildings, well away from the sustainability principles (as unfortunately the most recent buildings are) and taken out of their cultural context, under the landscape, morphologic and typological point of view. It is about a “protocol” that, with guide-schedules supports the whole designing course clarifying the different phases of the building process with correct control tools. For each phase, the schedules embody the information, about the objectives to reach, the employed tools and the control parameters to verify the satisfaction of the considered requirements. Shortly, it is about a guide for the design according to the life cycle philosophy able to define, not only the shape, the use and the management but also the life end scenarios. In the Faculty of architecture of Pescara, Department of Technologies for the Built Environment, it was established the “Interdisciplinary Laboratory for earthquake territories -reconstruction and sustainable development” coordinated by M.C. Forlani with an articulated and complex work program, involving problems at different scale for starting a sustainable and lasting development in that territory, now earthquake-torn and felt because of the depopulation and abandon processes.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
