The text deals the topic of the management of rubble in the construction field, with particular reference to debris generated by seismic events, with particular attention to the environmental sustainability of the different intervention choices. In this perspective, the contribute starts from a careful consideration of the cultural, legal and practice context, to show the results of an experience developed by the author during the L'Aquila earthquake of April 2009, on a homogeneous area of more municipalities. A different handling and treatment options (centralized rather than localized) have been evaluated, both in terms of environmental impacts according to an LCA methodology as well as from the point of view of technical feasibility. The study was finalized to the identification of potentialities and limits of various management strategies to collect and reuse the debris derived by collapse and demolition of the buildings.

Abstract
The text deals the topic of the management of rubble in the construction field, with particular reference to debris generated by seismic events, with particular attention to the environmental sustainability of the different intervention choices. In this perspective, the contribute starts from a careful consideration of the cultural, legal and practice context, to show the results of an experience developed by the author during the L'Aquila earthquake of April 2009, on a homogeneous area of more municipalities. A different handling and treatment options (centralized rather than localized) have been evaluated, both in terms of environmental impacts according to an LCA methodology as well as from the point of view of technical feasibility. The study was finalized to the identification of potentialities and limits of various management strategies to collect and reuse the debris derived by collapse and demolition of the buildings.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
