Abstract:

In Italy the postwar era (1945-1964) was a period of truly exceptional development in the sector of large structures, to a much greater extent than seems to have been recorded in collective memory. For Italian structural engineering, limited to substantial operative stagnation for decades but constantly involved in intense theoretical research, this was the moment to finally test lines of experimentation that had been developing for many years. This led to the appearance in the realization of projects of an original character: an “Italian Style” for structures.
