The morning session of Rome’s Conference will be dedicated to a macroeconomic analysis on European scenarios of the world of construction, and on specific building categories: residential/non residential housing and infrastructures.

The afternoon session of the Springtime Conference will focus on Social Housing and Requalification of Suburban Areas: Housing demand, Quality of construction, Energy saving. Urban planning is increasingly related to the requalification of suburbs and deteriorated areas, and is performed through demolitions and reconstructions, as also by developing and modernizing existing structures. In this particular situation, the issue is focused on social housing: planning and promoting new building productions that are designed for the underprivileged, and highly integrated with the urban context that is to be developed.
Social issues, quality of constructions and technological solutions that can increase sustainability of products and building structures, are mutual elements of a new social housing concept, and need to be approached in an integrated way.
