Abstract

Unfinished public works question us about their possible future, while contradicting every dimension of sustainability: social, economic, and environmental, just like abandoned building stock. The proposed methodology investigates unfinished works beyond the mere economic data of the national registry by helping to define a ranking of interventions according to social utility, state of degradation and obsolescence resulting from non-use and non-completion. The ranking serves as the initial step towards implementations concerning the related costs and environmental impacts. The goal is to make the most of material and economic resources currently tied up in unfinished public works, and to give them back to society as valuable common goods.
