The Veranzio design is not only imaginative illustration of a machine or a work of engineering, is rather precursor sign of a refined technology that will be developed in the following centuries. The suspension bridges imagined and designed by Veranzio are, for example, precognitori of an engineering that will be declined, with infinite facets of sign and design, with the introduction of cast iron, iron and steel in Architecture, almost two centuries after publication of his treatise. In this short note we will tell the traces, the visions and pre-visions of a Renaissance man who anticipates, with his ideas and his projects, the Iron architecture design and especially the suspension bridges.

Abstract
The Veranzio design is not only imaginative illustration of a machine or a work of engineering, is rather precursor sign of a refined technology that will be developed in the following centuries. The suspension bridges imagined and designed by Veranzio are, for example, precognitori of an engineering that will be declined, with infinite facets of sign and design, with the introduction of cast iron, iron and steel in Architecture, almost two centuries after publication of his treatise. In this short note we will tell the traces, the visions and pre-visions of a Renaissance man who anticipates, with his ideas and his projects, the Iron architecture design and especially the suspension bridges.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
