      <abstract xml:lang="en">
        <p>This book explores several aspects of the variegated relationship that connects the operational principles of a structure to its translation into written form, between the laws that govern its structural rationale and the technical solutions that decree the feasibility of its construction. This is considered an essential subject for the training of aspiring engineers, whose education is often strongly conditioned by a didactic approach that divides the knowledge of construction into circumscribed and independent disciplinary units. This same approach negatively connotes the progressive transformation of the professional profile of the contemporary engineer, from the original figure of a designer of technical solutions to that of a specialist-assessor of structural performance. The result is that such figures sometimes lack the critical instruments inherent to a knowledge that does not begin and end within models of scientific explanation, but has to be comprised within a broader cultural dimension featuring the coexistence and mutual nourishment of different branches of knowledge, including History, Science and Design through to the ultimate dynamics of Architecture.

      <abstract xml:lang="it">
        <p>Il libro indaga alcuni aspetti del variegato rapporto che lega i principi di funzionamento di una struttura alla sua traduzione in forma costruita, tra le leggi che ne governano la ragione strutturale e le soluzioni tecniche che ne decretano la fattibilità costruttiva. Un tema che si ritiene essenziale per il percorso formativo degli allievi ingegneri, spesso fortemente condizionato da un approccio didattico teso a sezionare il sapere sulla costruzione all'interno di circostanziati e indipendenti confini disciplinari; su questa linea si può leggere in negativo la progressiva trasformazione del profilo professionale dell'ingegnere contemporaneo - dalla originaria figura di progettista delle soluzioni tecniche a quella di specialista-verificatore delle prestazioni strutturali - talvolta sprovvisto degli strumenti critici propri di un sapere che non si esaurisce e non si risolve solo all'interno di modelli di spiegazione scientifica, ma che richiede necessariamente di essere compreso entro una dimensione culturale più ampia dove vivono, alimentandosi a vicenda, forme diverse di conoscenza, dalla Storia, alla Scienza, alla Tecnica fino alle ragioni ultime dell'Architettura.</p>
