Putting Tradition into Practice: Heritage, Place and Design
This book gathers more than 150 peer-reviewed papers presented at the 5th INTBAU International Annual Event, held in Milan, Italy, in July 2017. The book represents an invaluable and up-to-date international exchange of research, case studies and best practice to confront the challenges of designing places, building cultural landscapes and enabling the development of communities. The papers investigate methodologies of representation, communication and valorization of historic urban landscapes and cultural heritage, monitoring conservation management, cultural issues in heritage assessment, placemaking and local identity enhancement, as well as reconstruction of settlements affected by disasters. With contributions from leading experts, including university researchers, professionals and policy makers, the book addresses all who seek to understand and address the challenges faced in the protection and enhancement of the heritage that has been created.
Archaeoseismology
Archaeoseismic research provides data and information on past earthquakes but is limited by the lack of ongoing discussions about methodology. This volume is an interdisciplinary approach including archaeologists, geologists, geophysicists, seismologists, engineers, and architects from different countries to present a comprehensive recording and interpretation of ancient natural disasters on some case studies. The publication is an introduction to various aspects of the field of archaeoseismology for the knowledge of past seismicity, the reconstruction of the chronological history of a place, the interpretation and identification of seismic effects using different methods, etc. The collection provides an overview of research into archaeoseismology, making new contributions through innovative ideas on various topics. The publication can be an illustrative introduction to better understand the complexity of interpreting seismic effects on ancient and modern masonries, particularly for students with an open mind.

Ostiense dal passato al futuro.
La ricerca condotta sul quartiere Ostiense ha posto in luce nuove acquisizioni documentarie circa lo sviluppo del quartiere, inteso nei suoi molteplici aspetti, non solo per quel che concerne i grandi impianti industriali, quanto piuttosto in merito alla complessiva compagine edilizia, in via di perenne trasformazione. Non è la prima volta che gruppi di ricerca finanziati da istituzioni quali Università, Ministero per i Beni e le Attività culturali, Comune di Roma, raggiungono risultati apprezzabili in ordine alla restituzione storica della compagine edilizia del centro di Roma, per ricchezza di materiale inedito rinvenuto. Basti ricordare le indagini documentarie occasionate dalle mostre...
La costruzione tradizionale in Abruzzo
Il patrimonio di una città, di una regione, come di una intera nazione non è fatto solo di grandi monumenti, ma soprattutto dell'architettura dove si vive, si lavora, ci si incontra quotidianamente. Conoscere gli aspetti tecnici e costruttivi dell'edilizia del passato è la condizione prima per la sua conservazione. Per questo, il volume delinea un repertorio di soluzioni tecniche che possa fornire un concreto ausilio nelle pratiche di tutela e valorizzazione dell'edilizia storica dell'Abruzzo, soprattutto nei suoi centri minori, più esposti al rischio di abbandono, all'invadenza dell'abusivismo edilizio o alle minacce di frane e sismi. Il patrimonio edilizio tradizionale abruzzese ha cre...
