Programma sintetico del corso:
The purpose of the course is to provide students with basic knowledge in design, operational-economic planning and management of safety at the construction sites by addressing the different stages of organization and execution in view of integrated management of the construction process. In addition, the student will be also formed on specific issues related to risk management, integrated construction process and post-earthquake reconstruction. The main goal of the course is, therefore, to provide procedures and tools that allow for a systematic control of the use of the available human and economic resources, so that the best choices can be taken. The course also aims to deepen the issues related to the management of safety at the construction site through the analysis of the various procedural steps that contribute to the realization of a work, risk management, the responsibilities of the subjects involved in the construction activity, the assessment of the necessary human and material resources, the organization of safety and accident analysis and prevention seen as a fundamental element of the construction process, from design through production, to the management of the buildings. In particular, the course will focus on the construction site linked to the post-earthquake reconstruction that, due to critical issues, interference, risks, ... needs of specific attentions and skills.Programma esteso del corso:

Modalità d'esame:
The exam will be based on the assessment of the knowledge and the deepening of the topics listed in the detailed programme, explained during the lessons of the course. This verification will take place through a written and / or oral test and the assessment of the exercise carried out by the student during the semester in the design workshops. This exercise will cover a topic related to the territory. The student will be admitted to the final exam after obtaining a positive opinion of the university teacher in the final review of the work.
Risultati di apprendimento previsti:
The purpose of the course is to respond to the widespread demand for technological innovation in production that requires professionals able to compete with an increasingly demanding market and strongly integrated with the specific needs of companies and operators in the sector. All this requires, in fact, a professional figure who knows how to act with competence in managing the complexity of the building production process and who is able to correlate the technical, constructional and procedural aspects related to the construction of the works. Furthermore, another objective of the course is to train the student in the integrated management of the construction process, in the management of risks and fragile territories, so as to respond to the growing market demand of professionals able to operate in highly vulnerable contexts typical of Italian country. At the end of the course students will have acquired a working methodology that will start them to critically use all the topics related to the subject and will help them to face the complex problems of professional work. The final aim is, therefore, to contribute to forming a cultural and professional figure capable of planning and controlling technical and economic actions that allow us to rationalize the production process and optimize the use of resources, including in the case of post-earthquake reconstruction.
