In the recovery and restoration sites, as well as in the versatile word of university research about construction history, it’s not infrequent to study stereotomy for the re-proposal of stony or tiled vaulted systems, sometimes complex for their constitutive geometry, equipment, preliminary/subsidiary carpentry works. It represents a didactic study-key also in Engineering and Architecture Schools, through laboratories that teach to future designers a “know-how” that can be easily spent in their professional repercussions.
