Designer’s manual for interventions on existing buildings and for the preparation of real estate due diligence

This new edition of the “Designer’s Manual for interventions on existing buildings and for the preparation of real estate due diligence” is an essential text that offers valid support to all technical professionals involved in the management and transformation of existing building assets. Updated and expanded after the entry into force of law no. 105/2024 (so-called Salva Casa), the work incorporates all the news and changes that have occurred since 2021, the year of release of the first edition, which quickly became a national best seller. These regulatory changes have significantly strengthened the role of technicians, consequently expanding their responsibilities. The commitment of the technical professional is no longer limited to the design and management of the works, but includes a direct and often exclusive responsibility in assuring the urban planning and building compliance of the interventions. This role of “guarantor” of the works does not end with the start of the construction site, but extends up to obtaining usability, involving the technician in a process which, if not followed with precision and rigor, can expose one to consequences below the criminal, civil and ethical profile. In this scenario, Marco Campagna’s manual represents a resource of inestimable value. Designed for quick consultation, the text offers a practical guide to interventions on existing buildings and to the criteria underlying the drafting of real estate Due Diligence, providing a clear and structured reference framework for dealing with authorization procedures and preliminary checks in a manner efficient and compliant with regulations. The multidisciplinary approach adopted by the author is particularly appreciable. In a sector in which regulations are increasingly transversal and interconnected, it is essential to have an overall vision that allows you to operate with awareness in all areas involved: from urban planning to fire prevention, from the protection of cultural heritage to energy efficiency . This new edition, enriched and updated, therefore offers the necessary support to face professional challenges with the solidity and reliability that characterize the category of technical professionals.
