Approaches Proposal for Tools Coordinating in Maintenance and Reuse of Architectural Heritage. A Case Study on Urban Complexes of Modern Architectural Heritage

Resilience assumed at a building scale often refers to efficiency and safety aspects, while extended to the urban and territorial scale it involves (among others) safety, energy efficiency and infrastructure aspects. Actually, it seems rather more complex imagine to bridge these goals together to a reference framework for Cultural Heritage, where technical and regulatory requirements must be usefully balanced with those of enhancing and conservation and, not at least, social involvement. In this perspective, authors deal with an on-going research, referred to an emblematic example of urban environment, recently added to UNESCO’s World Heritage List: Ivrea Industrial City of XX century. Here an innovative effort in maintenance program can interpret actual urgent needed in terms of conservation, but, at the same time, it can represent an instrument to govern and coordinate future sustainable transformative and regenerative planning. This paper presents the methodological approach and first results of the research program, which final aim is to develop an integrated BIM-GIS-based tool for coordinated and sustainable redesign and maintenance of complex built heritage environments. Original identity, strictly related to local resources, are considered, with the aim to reach a renewal of perspective, to promote and enhance a circular society, not far from Olivetti's ideals, but also consistent with goals proposed in Agenda 2030.
