Abstract

The long and difficult reconstruction process of structures and infrastructures following the 2009 Abruzzo earthquake is being developed under the guidance of STM, an ad hoc technical department of the Italian government. The characteristics of Abruzzo villages, with low population density and property values, but important historical and aesthetic values , were the focus of policy intervention by STM. The main choice has indie been to coordinate reconstruction activities among different towns and needs, economic, urban, art-historical, structural (i.e. geographical and functional coordination). The operational tools to reach this goal has been development of coordinated “Piani di Ricostruzione” (Reconstruction Plans), in order to respond to present and future needs of the population. The Pescara Faculty of Architecture of Pescara has been involved in the Reconstruction Plan of a large portion of Homogeneous Area 5. This is an important area (13.900 inhabitants, 180 square kilometers, 7 historic municipalities, altitude of about 500 m). The work consists mainly in the preparation of preliminary reconstruction plans, defining the main guidelines, together with the preparation of pilot projects on important structures (mainly public and having exemplary character). In the paper, present and future activities are described, highlighting the positive and negative aspects of this work, together with the interaction between the structural, urban, and economic aspects. With a special view on the current regulations, attention is focused on the main structural design approaches, in synergy with all the other design specialties (i.e. architectural), in order to implement design criteria that are both safe and respectful of history and aesthetics.
