CONOSCERE PER RICOSTRUIRE LA MEMORIA COLLETTIVA: L’ESPERIENZA DELL’UCCR MARCHE NELLA GESTIONE DELLE MACERIE DEI BENI CULTURALI NELLO SCENARIO POST-SISMA 2016

The vast Marche Region cultural heritage was deeply damaged by the 2016 seismic events. The MIBAC conducted a cataloguing campaign not only of the damage on the monuments but also of the rubbles derived from partial or total collapses of listed buildings. A widespread mapping of the rubble typology based on the architectural value and the construction material was performed for the first time. The aim of this contribution is to illustrate the new methodology developed by the UCCR-Marche for the post-earthquake management of the rubble intended as parts of a cultural asset from emergency to reconstruction. All this incessant activity that lasted more than two years saw the UCCR-Marche involved in the different phases from the rubble value acknowledgment to the selection up to their conservation. The flow of the vast amount of data was managed digitally through a geo-referenced DB by the UCCR and by the operators in charge in order to guarantee the geographical traceability of the rubble in the future. Now that the rubble of cultural heritage is being preserved it remains to be understood, case by case, how and if it should be reused to reconstruct the identity of wounded communities.
