Building pathology: symptoms, diagnosis and “therapies” for buildings
Thus was born the building pathologydiscipline that deals with the systematic study of anomalies and construction defects. Similarly to medicine, this technical science is based on the analysis of “symptoms” – such as infiltrations, cracks, humidity, indoor pollution – to trace the causes and propose the right corrective solutions.
With the aim of consolidating and disseminating a culture of prevention and planned maintenance, others April 9, 2025 will be held to Bolognaat the Savoy Hotel Congress Center, the First National Conference of Building Pathologies (CONAPE)promoted by Maggioli group With the patronage of the Municipality of Bologna and the main technical and professional associations in the sector.
An event for built professionals
Scientifically coordinated by Marco Argiolasauthor and among the major national experts on the subject, the conference proposes itself as a moment of technical and institutional comparison open to Engineers, architects, surveyors, public administrators and construction companies.
The program foresees Two plenary sessions And eight thematic workshops On central issues such as the anti -seismic safetythethermal insulationthe infiltrationsthe health of the environments and the New redevelopment technologies.
CONAPE enjoys the patronage of the orders of the engineers and architects of Bologna and the Province, of the college of surveyors and industrial experts, of Antel, Indep, ISI, Assorestauro, Association of Surveyor Women, Association of experts of healthy buildings and the association of expert Radon interventions. Main partners of the event are Volteco, Mitsubishi Electric and Rina Prime.
Innovation and prevention: the key to safe and sustainable buildings
During the morning, the workshops will focus on the building envelope and strategies to improve the energy efficiency of the buildings, in line with the European EPBD directive “Case Green”which requires the achievement of the energy class And by 2030 And D by 2033.
The afternoon will be dedicated to Good prevention practices: firefighting systems, construction solutions that favor housing well -being, monitoring of the Radonwaterproofing techniques and other tools to make buildings Resilient and healthy.
THE’Expo area will also welcome technical partners such as Mitsubishi Electric, Volteco, Rina Prime, Kerakoll, Systab And Icobit who will present the latest news in the sector.
A shared vision for the future of Italian construction
“Conapes was born with the aim of promoting a comparison of High technical and institutional level On the challenges related to the prevention and management of building pathologies and to encourage more efficient and safe construction and maintenance practices and maintenance: a crucial theme for the safety, sustainability and enhancement of the built heritage – Comment Amalia MaggioliCommercial Delegate Councilor, Marketing, Foreign of the Maggioli Group. – As an Maggioli group, always alongside professionals, local administrations and businesses, we believe that facing these problems means not only supporting the sector, but also contributing concretely to the well -being of the communities, activating valuable opportunities for comparison, in -depth analysis and updating on these issues. Preventing damage to buildings also means improving the quality of life of citizens, promoting a safer, sustainable and resilient construction. “
The opening plenary, moderate from Fabrizio Mario Vinardiunited forensic engineer and teacher, will focus on the impact of building pathologies by exploring the economic, social and safety implications, in order to promote an approach to the problem oriented towards prevention and systemic management.
The conference will close with a plenary session entrusted to Juri FranzosiGeneral Manager of Lombardini 22 and to the interventions of Pierfederico Marinoni and Eng. Massimo Montrucchio, who will discuss office technical consultancy (CTU) in the context of building pathologies, defining their skills, authorities and special institute activities.
