}}The '''Stadio Flaminio''' is a stadium in Rome. It lies along the [[Via Flaminia]], three kilometres northwest of the city centre, 300 metres away from the Parco di Villa Glori.
Line 30 ⟶ 31:
[[Pier Luigi Nervi]] designed the Flaminio Stadium with his son, the architect Antonio Nervi, between 1957 and 1958. The structure was built for the XVII Olympic Games in Rome (1960) and inaugurated in 1959. The Stadio Flaminio was built on the site of the previous [[Stadio Nazionale PNF]]. It was mostly devoted to [[Association football|football]] matches and served as the venue for the [[Football at the 1960 Summer Olympics|football]] final in the [[1960 Summer Olympics]].<ref>{{cite web |author1=The Organizing Committee of the Games of the XVII Olympiad |title=The XVII Olympiad |url=http://library.la84.org/6oic/OfficialReports/1960/OR1960v1.pdf |access-date=20 August 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180919201820/http://library.la84.org/6oic/OfficialReports/1960/OR1960v1.pdf |archive-date=19 September 2018 |location=Rome |pages=58, 60 |language=en |date=1960 |url-status=dead |volume=1}}</ref>
 
This stadium is a remarkable example of different ways to use concrete: in situ castings, prefabricated elements, undulating slabs of ferrocement.<ref>{{cite web |title=Lo Stadio Flaminio di Pier Luigi e Antonio Nervi a Roma: un piano di conservazione interdisciplinare |website=stadioflaminio.org |url=http://stadioflaminio.org/index.php#stadio-flaminio |access-date=31 July 2017 |language=it, en |trans-title=[http://stadioflaminio.org/index.php?lg=en#stadio-flaminio The Flaminio Stadium by Pier Luigi and Antonio Nervi in Rome: an interdisciplinary conservation plan]}}</ref> The Flaminio Stadium is a unique work that offers a highly original union between form and structure and between architecture and engineering. It testifies to a special and internationally recognised period for Italian architectural culture, characterised by a highly fertile relationship between different disciplines. The project also frames a unique moment in the work of Pier Luigi Nervi, unanimously recognised as the most ingenious Italian engineer and a pioneer of the study and use of reinforced concrete.
 
Abandoned for years, the stadium is now in an advanced state of decay. This degeneration can be traced back to three principal causes: improper interventions that failed to respect the characteristics of the original structure, widespread deterioration caused by years of neglect and the physiological aging of materials and plant systems.
