Cluster in progress

About this book

The Italian society of Architectural technology, SITdA, was founded in 2007 to create a wide network of University professors and researchers with the aim of supporting the culture of research in the subject area of Architectural technology. SITdA provides resources for the training and qualification of young researchers, promotes theoretical and applied research, and encourages the internationalization of research, also exploring the emerging areas of technological innovation in architecture. Since 2012 SITdA has created eight thematic clusters which condense interdisciplinary skills and competences with the aim of both enhancing public demand through a clear statement of needs and supporting the construction industry in effectively responding through design, construction and management solutions. The book outlines the work in progress of the clusters through the presentation of interdisciplinary contributions, thematic analyses and dialogues with qualified experts from the world of institutions, building industry associations and enterprises.
