Elementi per la progettazione = Design elements

The technological system called Lightweight Steel Frame (LSF) is offered to architectural design provided with a kit features that highlight some advantages, signi cant from the execution point of view (from design to implementation, until the end of life), and which show the critical issues, especially related to the mismatch to the consolidated use of wet technologies. The use of in thin sheet steel pro es which are made by cold shaping is not, however, a purely technical matter. Design to build in CFS may be an advantage in overcoming the objective di culties (and concern) related to the innovation of the production, expecially in comparison with traditional construction systems. It should be exciteing to accept the challenge of the project in relation to the complexity of the digital factory employing a \u201cnew\u201d technology, which still awaits an articulate declination of their design and ex-pressive potential. A new complexity, a new technology, a new challenge, as others have been already ad-dressed by the project and by the yard in the past. This essay reads the studies of the \u201880s, the words of Spadolini, in particular. All this in order to foresee the potential of the project in LSF and to develop an increasingly close relationship between the design, in-dustry, technology and construction
