The research is strongly oriented on applicative and experimental aspects and aims to provide concrete answers, in terms of acquired knowledge, to the main technical issues in terms of energy sustainability, safety technologies, fire engineering, acoustics and lighting technologies at the level of the building scale and also on larger scales, districts and neighbourhoods, and also in an urban perspective according to the emerging paradigm of the Smart City.
The goal of the project is to encourage the co-creation, exploration, experimentation and evaluation of innovative ideas, scenarios, concepts and relevant technological materials in real use cases, in the context of building and urban redevelopment.
The various research fronts are located in this context of research into technologies for energy efficiency and savings, for lighting, for fire safety, modelling of building systems, for acoustics and for structural parts, with particular attention to the following application areas:
