IPOTESI DI RIPRISTINO DEL C.A. IN UN EDIFICIO DEGLI ANNI '30. LA COLONIA VARESE DI CERVIA (RA)

THE INTRODUCTARY PAPER EMPHASIZES THE ANALOGY BETWEEN OLD BUILDING RENEWAL (E.G.: MONUMENTS) AND MODERN BUILDINGS RENEWAL: IN BOTH CASES, FULL ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF THE IMPORTANT ROLE PLAYED BY THE RELATIONSHIP SHAPE/BUILDING TECHNOLOGIES IS REQUIRED. OUR EXAMPLE IS A SEASIDE "COLONIA", CALLED "LA VARESE", BUILT IN 1937 FROM A PROJECT DRAWN UP BY ING. ARCH. LORETI IN CESENATICO. ON THE BASIS OF THE BASIS OF THE STARTING HYPHOTESIS, THE "COLONIA" IS CONSIDERED A MONUMENT: THE OPERATION MOSTLY CONSIST IN SOLVING PROBLEMS OF AN EMIENTLY TECHNOLOGICAL NATURE EVEN THOUGH REFERRING TO WHAT BINDS TECHNOLOGICAL CHOISES TO MORPHOLOGICAL ONES. THE "COLONIA" HAS BEEN ALMOST COMPLETALY BUILT IN REINFORCED CONCRETE, THEREFORE THE STUDY IS POINTED TO AN ANALYSIS OF STRUCTURE AND MATERIALS DECAY, STATE OF PRESERVATION AND HYPHOTHESIS OF A WORK THAT MINGHT DEAL WHITH THE ORIGINAL PROJECT. IN PARTICULAR THE RESTORATION INVOLVES ELECTROCHEMICAL (OR NON- E.CH.) INTERVENTIONS, AIMING TO PROTECT THE REINFORCED CONCRETE STRUCTURES, WHICH HAVE BEEN RUINED BY CORROSION.
