Abstract

This paper reports the results achieved by the research directed by Prof. Gulli, with the collaboration of Profs. Brocato, Porrino and Sakarovitch, within a cooperative relationship between the Department of Architecture of Alma Mater Studiorum in Bologna and Laboratoire GSA at the École Nationale Supérieure d'Architecture Paris-Malaquais.
The project investigates the architectural and constructive history of the Church of Saint-Sulpice in Paris, with the aim of developing a research methodology of the pre-modern constructive techniques applicable to the restoration and preservation of buildings.
The research conducted on the construction in stone and steel is aimed both at the theoretical analysis and project as well as to the practical realization and structural verification, according to an approach which combines science and practice.
