Il Piano di Conservazione come strumento di tutela dell’architettura del XX secolo. Una sperimentazione per l’Aviorimessa di Pier Luigi Nervi a Pontecagnano

In the current scientific debate on the issue of modern heritage conservation, the ICOMOS document Conservation Plan constitutes an advancement in defining a me-thodological approach capable of developing a system of value identification, which is not limited only to material consistency, but which is able to include all aspects, including intangible ones, that characterise a historical work. This paper summarises the research experience related to the hangar that Pier Luigi Nervi designed and re-alised in 1939 in Pontecagnano Faiano (SA), in which he experimented for the first time his most brilliant structural, compositional, and formal intuitions. The case is an applied example of the Conservation Plan to guarantee compatible use and con-servation of an emblematic work in the history of 20th century Italian engineering.
