Abstract

This study focuses on analysing the front panels of two French patents (i.e. Balency and Camus): developed in the 60s, they were widely resorted to in Europe. The material, geometrical, and construction-related data led to implementing a BIM model that furthered the development of a meth- odology of digitisation of European prefabricated building stock, with a view to its upgrading, as far as architecture, environment and functions are concerned. The 60s and 70s housing blocks consisting of large two-dimensional pre- fabricated elements represent a sizable share of European building assets: their upgrading as regards architecture, energy efficiency, environment and social services is a priority for European Union aims by 2050. Prefab- ricated housing blocks total to such large numbers as to require new meth- odologies and technologies to be developed, in order to make upgrading technically viable and economically sustainable.
