Tecniche costruttive innovative per l'edilizia sostenibile

Main objective of this research is to define, at design level and through scale modeling, new dry construction techniques for low-cost building, recovering historic constructive techniques, updated in a modern and innovative concept of building art. Versatile systems, adaptable to different design situations, in new constructions, potentially useful in developing techniques and components for existing buildings refurbishment, as well as provided with high performance in seismic contexts. The fundamental criteria are bioclimatic and sustainable construction, with particular attention to energy performance, innovation concerning materials and implementation processes. This research project contributed to the development of innovative tools that can be used both in new constructions and in recent building renovation, providing processes and methods valid for design, with the goal of an eco-sustainable architecture. With the collaboration of external companies, this research puts into effect and implements those increasingly sought-after synergies within the University of Bologna, aimed at ensuring a closer relationship between the theory and the practice of building.
