Riuso e riciclo di elementi e componenti prefabbricati per gli stadi di Qatar 2022

The article provides an overall picture of architectures which, in terms of construction technologies and systems as well as materials and application techniques, have been identified during global events generally with a multi-year frequency of sporting interest such as, among the most media-relevant, the Olympic Games - winter or summer - the World Cup or the Continental Football Championship, and of international socio-political involvement such as the Universal Exhibitions. The article intends to focus on the impact of such constructions within a complex and common planning process for which, in most cases, the aim is to decommission, move, convert or reuse them in relation to the strategies and provisions defined by the competent bodies. An approach aimed at sustainability in the broadest sense of the term whose general application struggles, more and more often, to identify the right direction in respect of social, economic, technological and environmental principles and performance. In this sense, while embracing the undoubted avant-garde power of international events, these manifest weaknesses that inevitably constantly characterize any process of this magnitude and, therefore, there is an ongoing investigation into the possibilities of developing strategies for the recovery of elements and places through techniques capable of reducing their overall impact.
