Walking through the streets of L’Aquila city centre, the first impression you get is that the earthquake of 6 April 2009 is only a bad memory. The rubble was cleared from the streets, the rebuilt palaces look like surrealistic sets because the patina of time has been removed after the reconstruction and the Churches organs play melodies that surround the passers-by.The memory of that terrible night is still unforgettable in the locals’ mind though: you can find few people in the streets (especially if you think it’s a regional chief town) and some of the shop shutters are still down. Probably the sorest point – which leaves everyone shocked – is the lack of schools’ reconstruction, even if eleven years have passed. Even if the life in L’Aquila has come back to normal with strength, the people have returned to their homes after the period passed on the coast of Abruzzo or in the temporary houses and most of the work activities have been reopened, the reconstruction of schools is still at year zero. Students and teachers are forced to work in containers named M.U.S.P., Moduli ad Uso Scolastico Provvisorio, which succeeded in facing the emergency thanks to the speed of their construction, but now they show all signs of their impermanence since their service life is only five years. The problem doesn’t depend on the lack of funds, but on bureaucratic delays and lack of projects, so we propose a methodological approach which could be applied to all L’Aquila schools. In the method here shown, on one hand, we provide a paper to the potential designers of the schools, with a list of the possible activities and the dimensions of the spaces, based on scholastic regulation; on the other side, we have studied different spatial base modules whose multiples and submultiples will form the classrooms, the canteens and the yards of the schools. Following the calculation and after a careful reading of the regulation, we propose a spatial module 3x3 closely linked to the technological one, which consists in a technological system with a wooden structure capable of fitting to the proposed spatial module. This system arrives at the construction site with all its elements, from the structure to the insulation and the support laths. Lastly, we show an application case of these principles: the School Campus of Paganica, one of the hamlets that have been most affected by the violent shock and whose centre doesn’t show the same conditions of L’Aquila. The facades of the ancient village are the only things remained and they don’t hide, unfortunately, the inhabitants’ homes, but the pile of rubble and fallen stone blocks, while the life has moved elsewhere. The Campus, as planned by Piano di Riassetto Scolastico, is located in via Degli Alpini in which actually the Teatro Tenda stands in its majesty, which is a multipurpose centre that not only hasn’t been opened but also has never been finished. As indicated on the Plan, in the project we proceed to the demolition of the theatre and then to the construction of the new complex, in which all previously planned standards in the methodological approach are included. The regular shape of the modules is lost into their interaction since their architectural composition – divided between solids and voids both in plan and elevation – reminds on one side the ancient villages of Abruzzo and on the other, the fragmentary Paganica urban fabric. The X-LAM structure is totally anti-seismic; the prefabrication system of the technologies is thought to reduce the installation time; the careful lighting-energy analysis of the school and the psychophysical study based on the colour theory are combined in a single body so that we can provide an example to all L’Aquila schools.
Percorrendo le vie del centro dell’Aquila, la prima percezione è che il terremoto del 6 aprile 2009 sia solo un brutto ricordo. Le macerie non popolano più le strade, i palazzi ricostrutiti sembrano delle scenografie surreali perché la patina del tempo è stata rimossa in seguito alla ricostruzione e gli organi delle Chiese suonano delle melodie che avvolgono i passanti. Ma negli aquilani il ricordo di quella notte rimane indelebile, tant’é che poche sono le persone per strada se si pensa ad un capoluogo regionale, e le serrande di alcuni negozi sono ancora abbassate. Non solo, ma forse la nota più dolente e che lascia esterrefatti è la mancata ricostruzione delle scuole, nonostante siano trascorsi undici anni. Se la vita aquilana si è ripresa con forza, gli abitanti sono ritornati nelle loro case dopo il periodo trascorso sulle coste abruzzesi o nelle dimore provvisorie e la maggior parte delle attività lavorative ha riaperto, la ricostruzione delle scuole è ancora all’anno zero. Gli studenti e gli insegnanti sono costretti a lavorare all’interno di container, i cosiddetti M.U.S.P., i Moduli ad Uso Scolastico Provvisorio, che sono riusciti a fronteggiare l’emergenza essendo stati costrutiti in tempi rapidi, ma ora mostrano tutti i segni della loro provvisorietà, dato che hanno una vita utile di soli cinque anni. Il problema non sta nella mancanza di fondi, ma nei ritardi burocratici e nella mancanza dei progetti e quindi si è proposto un approccio metodologico volto ad essere applicato a tutte le scuole aquilane. Nel metodo da un lato si fornisce una scheda ai potenziali progettisti delle scuole con un elenco delle attività da inserire e delle dimensioni degli spazi, basati sulla normativa scolastica, e dall’altro si studiano diversi moduli spaziali-base i cui multipli e sottomultipli configureranno le aule, le mense, i cortili dei complessi scolastici. In seguito ai calcoli e all’attenta lettura della normativa si propone come modulo base uno 3x3 e strettamente connesso a questo si definisce un modulo tecnologico, ovvero un pacchetto con struttura lignea in grado di adattarsi bene a quello spaziale proposto. Questo arriva in cantiere già composto di tutti i suoi elementi, dalla struttura, agli isolanti e ai listelli di supporto. Infine, si presenta un caso applicativo di questi principi: il Polo Scolastico di Paganica, una delle frazioni più colpite dalla violenta scossa e il cui centro, ahinoi, non presenta le stesse condizioni descritte per quello aquilano. Del vecchio borgo non rimangono altro che i fronti su strada che però non nascondono le dimore degli abitanti, ma accumuli di macerie e blocchi di pietra caduti, mentre la vita si è trasferita altrove. Il Polo viene collocato, come previsto dal Piano di Riassetto Scolastico, in via Degli Alpini, in cui attualmente si erge nella sua maestosità il Teatro Tenda, un centro polifunzionale che non solo non è stato mai aperto, ma nemmeno terminato. Come da previsione del Piano, nel progetto si procede alla demolizione dello stesso e alla costruzione del nuovo complesso in cui si incorporano tutti gli standard precedentemenente previsti dall’approccio metodologico. La conformazione regolare dei moduli si perde nella loro interazione, dato che la composizione architettonica divisa tra pieni e vuoti, sia in pianta che in alzato, ricorda da un lato gli antichi borghi abruzzesi e dall’altro il tessuto frammentario di Paganica. La struttura in X-LAM totalmente antisismica, la prefabbricazione dei pacchetti per ridurre i tempi di posa, l’attenta analisi illuminotecnica-energetica del complesso e lo studio psico-fisico basato sulla teoria dei colori, si combinano in un organismo unico in modo da poter fornire un esempio anche per le altre scuole aquilane.

Abstract
Walking through the streets of L’Aquila city centre, the first impression you get is that the earthquake of 6 April 2009 is only a bad memory. The rubble was cleared from the streets, the rebuilt palaces look like surrealistic sets because the patina of time has been removed after the reconstruction and the Churches organs play melodies that surround the passers-by.The memory of that terrible night is still unforgettable in the locals’ mind though: you can find few people in the streets (especially if you think it’s a regional chief town) and some of the shop shutters are still down. Probably the sorest point – which leaves everyone shocked – is the lack of schools’ reconstruction, even if eleven years have passed. Even if the life in L’Aquila has come back to normal with strength, the people have returned to their homes after the period passed on the coast of Abruzzo or in the temporary houses and most of the work activities have been reopened, the reconstruction of schools is still at year zero. Students and teachers are forced to work in containers named M.U.S.P., Moduli ad Uso Scolastico Provvisorio, which succeeded in facing the emergency thanks to the speed of their construction, but now they show all signs of their impermanence since their service life is only five years.
