Industrial Heritage in the historical neighbourhood: BIM strategies for urban regeneration

The recent investigations about sustainable transformations of urban areas in the industrial/post-industrial districts of European and Mediterranean countries showed the need to face new possible urban assets within the framework of migration, climate change, global economy changing and adaptation to the new situation with holistically sustainable approaches. Building Information Modelling (BIM) and Management is here clearly a strategic tool, supporting all the operations and even contributing to manage the energy efficiency of the revitalization and the entire building life cycle. The topic about industrial heritage can be seen as an element in balance across the urban tissue, capable to pass from decay to resource or getting lost.
