Sistema Edilizio e Risorsa Idrica. il Caso Studio di Torre Annunziata (Na)

A study of an 18th-century urban core in Torre Annunziata, Italy, reveals how water management systems were integrated into building designs to sustainably utilize rainwater. The research uncovers sedimented knowledge within these structures, offering a foundation for modern conservation and revitalization efforts. By analyzing historical water infrastructure, the study provides insights into pre-industrial urban planning, contrasting it with contemporary wasteful practices. This work highlights the potential for recovering and leveraging traditional water systems to improve sustainability in heritage sites.
