Presentazione della Tesi di Laurea in Restauro sul castello di Massafra (TA)
No full textIl lavoro che qui si presenta è l’esito di un’appassionante quanto coinvolgente esperienza accademica vissuta nell’ambito del Laboratorio di Laurea in Restauro coordinato da chi scrive e dedicato al restauro dell’antico castello di Massafra in provincia di Taranto. Fondato su un terreno di natura carsica che ha favorito a Massafra la forma insediativa della casa-grotta, il castello quadri-turrito è indissolubilmente legato al contesto ambientale di cui è parte integrante. Sorge a sud-est del nucleo antico, in posizione decisamente strategica, con il fronte orientale a picco sulla suggestiva gravina di San Marco. Fenomeni franosi verificatesi in tempi relativamente recenti hanno compromesso sul versante sud l’antico rapporto fra il castello e le sottostanti case-grotta, di cui rimangono solo alcune tracce. Anticamente adibite ad alloggi delle guarnigioni, le case-grotta segnavano il limite sud della soprastante piazza d’armi, ridimensionata a causa dei crolli e successivamente ridisegnata.
Il lavoro svolto è l’esito di un articolato iter metodologico che ha indagato l’edificio secondo l’ormai consolidata tradizione degli studi della storia dell’architettura e del restauro, aderendo perfettamente alla realtà costruita, esaminando gli aspetti tipologici, spaziali, tecnico-costruttivi, studiando i fenomeni di dissesto e le forme di degrado superficiale, analizzando le modificazioni intervenute sulla materia e sulla forma.
L'oggetto di studio ha offerto anche l’occasione per riflettere sul delicato rapporto conservazione / innovazione, ampiamente dibattuto in sede teorica, incentrato sui problemi d’integrazione, sostituzione, ricostruzione - dalla scala architettonica a quella urbana e paesistica -, tutti temi che nel caso specifico, sono stati risolti in nome della continuità con il passato, nel rispetto del principio del minimo intervento, della compatibilità, della riconoscibilità, senza rinunciare con questo alle capacità espressive del linguaggio contemporaneo

Il restauro del castello di Massafra (TA)
No full text[EN] Massafra Castle’s restoration project aims to preserve and enhance the monument, redeeming it from
the current state of partial abandonment, with the scope to return it to the community. First, an in-depth
study of an historical research was carried out together with the analysis of the monument’ superficial
and structural degradation to identify the adequate remedies. It was clear that “restoring only the stones”
would have not been efficient and therefore finding a new purpose was necessary and essential. Finding
a new scope for those kinds of architectures is a matter of great interest, because more than any other
type of monuments, those are completely out of their historical context that gave them political, military
and economic reason to be built.
Therefore, following a sociological investigation, it emerged that the best solution would be create a
connection between Massafra and cinematography: there are many cultural organizations in this area
and most of them need more dedicated space. Massafra has already been chosen several times as a movie set by famous authors: Il Vangelo secondo Matteo by Pier Paolo Pasolini, Il Paese delle spose infelici
by Pippo Mezzapesa and Amiche da morire by Giorgia Farina. This is how the MOVIE (Massafra Omni
Vision between Innovation and Cultural Heritage) idea was born, a 360° cinema setting which is unique
at a national level and that it would become part of larger cinematographic circuit already flourishing in
the Apulia region. The project’s feasibility was then evaluated from a logistic-economic point of view.
Furthermore, given the Castle’s location, the project proposes the reopening of ancient paths that connect the monument to the historical town centre and to the Ravine. The project also supports the restoration of rock settlements with its cave houses (currently completely collapsed) that surround the castle’s

Restauro e rifunzionalizzazione del castello di Massafra
No full textIl progetto di restauro del Castello di Massafra mira a conservare e valorizzare il monumento, riscattandolo dall’attuale stato di parziale abbandono, ricomponendo l’unità d‘immagine per restituirlo alla collettività e alle generazioni future attraverso una rifunzionalizzazione mirata, estendendo la valorizzazione del Castello anche al suo contesto ambientaleThe restoration project of the Castle of Massafra aims to safeguard and enhance the monument, now in a state of abandonment, by recreating a sense of unity in a good integration between traditional elements and modern techniques in order to give it back to the community and to the future generation, through a targeted new function, extending the enhancement of the Castle also to its environmen
A Relational Database Management System Approach for Data Integration in Manufacturing Process
No full textIn this paper we introduce a data integration system by implementing a function into the context of PostgreSQL. The aim of this work is to collect files to process from two different data sources (a platform of Physical Testing Software (PTS) and another one of Physical Simulation Software (PSS)), in order to retrieve specific records through a query and integrate them. Both these platforms contain a large amount of files in semi-structured or unstructured format. This approach allows analysing data from different sources and creating a database remaining always in the PostgresSQL context. Indeed, the code is modular and it can be customizable for the specific scope. This approach reduces the information exchange with the client and the computational cost, because the instructions are applied all in once (on-the-fly) to the files stored in the Network File System (NFS). Furthermore, the integration outputs and the related data can be stored within it. One of the objectives of this work is to perform a new product introduction (NPI) for multi-sources data retrieval and integration. The result is a modular approach, customizable and suitable for the most of the integration and retrieval issues. The architecture proposed allows all the authorized users to access to the data in parallel, independently and on the same device, by running query straightly on the file through the Structured Query Language (SQL)
A reinforced concrete stage tower within a 18th-century masonry theater: The Municipal Theater of Bologna
No full textThe Municipal Theater is one of the main artistic symbols of Bologna. Although it is recognized worldwide for its musical history, its construction peculiarities are less known. The original building was designed by the architect Antonio Galli Bibiena in 1763 in a masonry and wood structure. Then, the stage tower, burnt away in 1931, was rebuilt with a reinforced concrete structure, which currently is a significant landmark in the heart of the University district with about 35 m height. The reconstruction project, designed by engineer Armando Villa, had to face complex issues for the emerging but still inexperienced Italian reinforced concrete technique, such as the installation of a large span roof at considerable heights. The archival research and the digital documentation made it possible to analyze the structural concept of this construction, a significant example of the building culture of the '30s, tracing the evolution of this specific construction system and contextualizing it on the international scene
