IL CONSOLIDAMENTO DEL TIBURIO DEL DUOMO NEGLI ANNI SETTANTA DEL XX SECOLO

Abstract

At about 1960, some signs of damage became evident in Milan’s cathedral, which rapidly increased to reach a very serious situation. Restoring the safety and the functionality of the monument required a rather difficult operation, which was designed and carried out with the essential contribution of a number of experts from the Politecnico di Milano. In this paper the main aspects of this sequence of events are summarized.
