The course aims to provide the specialist knowledge related to the project on the built environment and architecture, both ancient and recent , with particular reference to issues not traditionally addressed in the discipline of Architectural Restoration. At the end of teaching, the student must be able to face and develop, until the executive detail, a design project on an existing architecture.
The course is aimed at understanding : - the principles and rules of construction of historic building and recent architecture ; - the forms of degradation and functional deficits , the energy behavior and the consumption of resources ; - techniques of rehabilitation , consolidation , restoration and energy enhancement .
The course is organized in close relation with the Restoration Laboratory and constitutes an opportunity to investigate some issues that will emerge from the design exercises .
1 ) Building materials and traditional building techniques: features, performance, degradation and techniques of intervention 2 ) Constructive and architectural features of the twentieth century heritage and maintenance, conservation and rehabilitation techniques 3 ) Possibilities and limits in the energy improvement interventions
