Demographics

2015-01-27T04:37:48Z

Admin:

[[File:Scan0027.jpg|right|thumb|500px|Household Sizes]]In 2009, the number of registered residents in Venice was 60,208, with a additional 30,362 living in islands and estuary of Venice. These 90,570 people are designated as permanent residents of the "lagoon city," a term referring to the people of the mainland of Venice, the Lido, Pellestrina, and the outlaying islands.

Currently, the total population of Venice was recently recorded at [http://en.comuni-italiani.it/027/042/ 270,884 people] (which includes mainland Venice as well as the surrounding islands and lagoon). Of these, 47.4% were male and 52.6% were female. Minors (those 18 years or younger) made up 14.36% of the population, whereas pensioners made up 25.7%. The overall Italian population is, by contrast, made up of 18.06% minors (more than Venice) and 19.94% pensioners. The average age of a Venetian resident is 46, four years older than the Italian average of 42.

==Permanent Residents==
The official resident population of Venice is distributed in a ratio of approximately 22:8:70 between the historic city, the islands, and the mainland (only the official residents are allowed to vote). This demographic disparity means that in electoral terms, the historic city is now a minority. When local politicians refer to "Venezia," they are no longer referring to the Venice the world thinks of but to the Venice which includes the regional Veneto.

The total population of the municipality reached its peak in 1968 at 367,832. Although the population of the historic city of Venice was declining by then, industrialization at Marghera on the edge of the lagoon was flourishing. Population in the lagoon on the islands and the estuary areas also continued growing until the late 1960's, particularly as a result of thriving glass production on the island of [[Murano]].

More recently, the population of the lagoon (the historic city, the Lido, Pellestrina and the islands) has fallen by more than a third (since 1981), double the rate of the decrease on the mainland areas of Venice.

===Age of Population===
The average age of people living in the historic city of Venice went up from 40.6 years old (in 1981) to 48.2 (in 2001). Before 1991, more than 60% of the population fell within the 14-59 age bracket, but by 2001 the range had fallen to 58% and the proportion of people age 60 and up stood at almost 35%, significantly higher than 30 years earlier.

Consequently, the historic city has a disproportionate share of older residents. In 1971, 23.8% of this historic city's population was aged over 60 (compared to 16.9% in the Commune as a whole.) By 2001, the share of over-60s in the historic city had risen to 349% (against 31.3% in the Commune.) The Commune predicts that by 2015, the proportion of over-60s overall in the "lagoon city" will have risen to 37%.

===Population Trends===

[[File:Population 1540 to 2015.png|left|thumb|400px|The population of Venice, 1540 to 2015]]

[[File:Population Prediction.jpg|Right|thumb|400px|Estimated population increases [http://comicka.com/content/html5map.html See: Interactive Map]]]
The resident population all over Venice has also been decreasing. In the five years between 2002 and 2007, the population of Venice declined overall by 0.2%, while Italy as a whole grew by 3.85%.<ref>[http://demo.istat.it/bil2007/index.html "Statistiche demografiche ISTAT"] . Demo.istat.it. Retrieved 28 March 2009</ref> But the population in the historic city alone is declining at a significantly faster rate: from about 120,000 in 1980 to about 60,000 in 2009.<ref>Cathy Newman, "Vanishing Venice," National Geographic, August 2009</ref>
Taken alone, the municipality's official figures would appear to confirm the widely held belief that Venice is shrinking: since 1952 when the number of residents in the "lagoon city" peaked at 218,991, the permanent registered population has diminished by more than 60% and steadily continues its decline. It has shrunk by a further 9% since the beginning of the century or an average of 1,000 people annually. <ref>Commune di Venezia, Statistical Office, Venice 2006</ref>

The official resident population of the historic city of Venice shows an even more marked fall, from a peak of 174,808 in 1951 to 60,208 in 2008. But the real population of Venice includes many others who "inhabit" the city, albeit less officially. Excluding the numerous tourists and day-trippers who collectively make heavy demands on the city's infrastructure, other residents include people with secondary homes, commuting workers, students, and the steady flow of people who come to Venice to use its public administration offices.

In 1994, the Venice Commune first attempted to estimate and evaluate the population from a new perspective; another study was published in 2006 (using data from 2004) and most recently, a 2007 study, updated in 2008 by COSES (the Consortium for Research and Educational Training, a research study center established by the City and Province of Venice) concluded that the number of people present in Venice on an average day is 143,450 including the tourists.<ref>Di Monte G. and G. Santoro, Venice metropolitan area, Doc COSES 1032.0, October 2008</ref> This is over 50% more than the total resident population of the "lagoon city" and over 100% more than the number of residents in the historic cit, where the bulk of this transit population goes.

[[File:Scan0028.jpg|left|thumb|450px|Venice's Daytime Effective Population|Venice's Effective Daytime Population]]This concept of "popolazione presente", or the effective population, has grown in importance and become a common method for studying issues concerning large metropolises and urban sociology. The increased mobility of people means that the actual human load on a city is much larger (and of a different nature) than that created solely by residents and it needs to be measured and described.

To understand what this level of human presence means to Venice, it is more meaningful to convert the annual number for effective population (used for economic statistics) to an equivalent population figure, which gives a better idea of the number of people in Venice on a typical day of the year (but does not take account of seasonal variations), for planning purposes such as the calibration of city services. This transformed estimate of the real population of Venice considers the inhabitants of Venice in a wider sense and encompasses as many as possible of the city's stakeholders.

The shrinking number of permanent residents. though a serious issue, pales in comparison to the global importance of the city, its heritage and the number of transient "city users" and leisure visitors.

==Tourism Population==

Venice is one of the worlds most visited cities due to its' long legacy of beautiful and historically important art. In 2007, it was estimated that 50,000 visitors visited Venice each day, and showed no signs of weakening as the years pass. In 2007 it was projected that there would be at least twenty million visitors that will occupy Venice alone in the next year<ref>
"[http://www.travelindustrydeals.com/news/5109 Italy's Venice on track for record tourism year: official]", Nov 20, 2007</ref>. However, this large amount of tourism traffic has caused many issues in Venice. For more information, see [[Tourism]].

==Ethnicity==
As of 2009, 91,14% of the population was Italian. The largest immigrant group comes from other European nations (Romanians, the largest group: 3.26%, South Asia: 1.26%, and East Asia: 0.9%).

==Religion==
Venice is predominantly Roman Catholic, but because of the long standing relationship with Constantinople there is also a perceptible Orthodox presence, and due to immigration it now has some Muslim, Hindu and Buddhist inhabitants.
There is also a historic Jewish Community in Venice. The Venetian Ghetto was the area of in which Jews were compelled to live under the Venetian Republic. The word "ghetto", used in many languages, is derived from this instance. Notably, William Shakespeare's play The Merchant Of Venice, written ca. 1595, features Shylock, a Venetian Jew and his family. Venice also has an eruv,<ref>[http://www.ghetto.it/ghetto/en/foto.asp?padre=3&figlio=1 "Venetian Ghetto - Eruv in Venice"] . Retrieved 2010-08-02.</ref> built for and still used by the Jewish community.

A ''campo'', although not a [[Street|street]] by common understanding, is a large paved walkway which typically contains a church and [[wellhead]]. ''Campo'' in English means "a grassy field".<ref>Giulio Lorenzetti, ''Venice and its Lagoon'', (1994)</ref> Originally, all ''campi'' in Venice were grassy fields, but over time all of these fields were [[Stone Pavement|paved]] over. There are 168 ''campi'' in Venice.

A ''campiello'' is so named because it is a "little ''[[campo]]''". They are smaller squares and typically do not contain a church, or wellhead.<ref>Giulio Lorenzetti, ''Venice and its Lagoon'', (1994)</ref> There are 153 ''campielli'' in Venice.

Much like a [[campiello]], a campazzo is an open space that does not usually contain a church or any wells. Physically, it very much similar to a [[campiello]] or a [[campo]], the slight difference lying mainly in historical uses and definitions. In the earlier years of Venice, before the islands had as many buildings as they do today, the ''campi'' were grassy fields located in various parts of the city. ''Campazzo'' was used as a term to refer to ''campi'' that were untended and overgrown.

There are not many ''campazzi'' found in Venice, but an example of such space is Campazzo San Sebastiano. This ''campo'' serves as a midway ''campo'' that connects Campo San Sebastiano and Campo dell'Angelo Raffaele.

{{for|a typical bridge|Bridge}}

The city of Venice is composed of 126 islands connected by 435 bridges.<ref>The Building Blocks of Venice: Preserving knowledge of a city's infrastructure and maintenance. Worcester Ma. Worcester Polytechnic Institute.2011
[https://sites.google.com/site/venicemaintained/proposal]
</ref><ref>Canals, Bridges, and Urban Maintenance (https://sites.google.com/site/ve13can/final-report)</ref> These bridges are essential for the unity of the city and play a major role in daily pedestrian traffic.

==History==
[[File:3dBridgeDiagram.png|right|thumb|A precise model of a Venetian Bridge]]
Bridges have served as an important piece of infrastructure throughout the history of Venice and its formation from multiple islands. Before bridges existed in Venice, the numerous islands were separate communities with their own churches, stores, and lifestyles. At this time landowners used planks to cross from one island to the next and charged a small toll to those who wanted to cross over.<ref>Venice (Italy): canal boats and bridges. Encyclopedia Britannica.
http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/625298/Venice/24379/Canal-boats-and-bridges?anchor=ref388643
</ref>

Over time the methods of getting from one island to another in Venice have evolved. Initially, a boat known as a [[Traghetto|''traghetto'']] was used to transport people across the natural water ways.

</ref> As stated above the first bridges were simple wooden planks placed across the smaller [[Canals|canals]] to enable passage. Eventually permanent bridges began being constructed out of [[Wood Bridge|wood]]. Today [[Masonry Bridge|masonry bridges]] make up the majority of bridges seen in Venice, and a few [[Metal Bridge|metal bridges]] have been . These bridges vary in structural design and material composition.

Bridges can be separated into private and public bridges. Public bridges are used by tourists and residents of Venice for regular transportation while private bridges are bridges that lead specifically to one or multiple households or business entrances. Approximately 2% of bridges are private bridges. <ref>Canals, Bridges, and Urban Maintenance (https://sites.google.com/site/ve13can/final-report)</ref>

Bridge Step

2014-06-16T16:44:50Z

Admin:

[[File:Bridge_step.jpg|right|thumb|Cross section of a bridge step]]
'''Bridge steps''' and landings follow the same structure and only differ in the width. Steps are usually about 30 cm wide and landings are 2-3 times wider. Steps and landings of a [[wood bridge]] and [[metal bridge]] are simple while the step of a traditional [[masonry bridge]] is more complex.

== Masonry bridge step structure ==
The [[masonry bridge]] step is built upon the foundation of the [[bridge]]. The facade of every step is made of a white stone that resembles but is not [[istria stone]]. This stone is 26 cm tall. However only 12-16 cm is exposed, while the rest is buried into the bridge foundation. These stones are 7 cm deep.<ref> Ing. Michele Regini. Insula SpA, Dec 2011 </ref>

In the gaps created by these stones, the steps and landings are constructed (''see diagram''). [[Mortar]] fill is dumped on top of the base brick and the [[masegni]] are laid on top of this. Steps are composed of a single ''corso'', or "run," of [[masegni]], while landings, depending on how long, are composed of multiple runs of [[masegni]] following the same rules and patterns of [[street pavement]].<ref>

Brick Pavement

Admin:

[[File:Brick pavement.jpg|right|thumb|300 px|an example of a paved ''campo'']]The first walkways in Venice were paved in 1264.<ref>G. Tassini, ''Curiosita Venezia'', (6th edition, 1931)</ref> These paved walkways were called ''[[salizada]]'' and were composed entirely of [[brick]]. Over time the bricks became weathered and needed to be replaced. In 1676 ''[[masegni]]'' stones were introduced and used to restore the majority of [[streets]].

Now, [[brick]] pavements make up only 2% of paved walk ways in Venice.

[[File:Venetian Bridge.jpg|275px|thumb|right|A Venetian bridge]]
''This article contains information about a typical Venetian bridge.'' {{For|a list of bridges|bridges}}
A Venetian '''bridge''' (''ponte'' in Italian) is generally composed of an [[Masonry Bridge#Archways|arch]], a [[Bridge Wall|bridge wall]], and [[Bridge Step|steps]]. Within Venice, a bridge chiefly serves two primary purposes: pedestrian and cargo [[Transportation|transportation]] as well as a carrier and passageway for [[Utilities|utilities]] such as water and electricity. <ref>Gianpietro Zucchetta, ''Venezia, ponte per ponte'' (Verlag Stamperia di Venezia, 1992)</ref>

==Materials==
Venetian [[bridges]] fall into 3 different categories based on the materials that are used in its construction:
*[[Masonry bridge]] - the most common type, found all over the city. The most famous example is the [[Rialto]].
*[[Wood bridge]] - somewhat uncommon, they can still be found dotted throughout parts of Venice. The most famous example is the [[Ponte del'Accademia]].
*[[Metal bridge]] - quite rare due to aesthetic incongruity, these bridges have been quite controversial when built by the city.

==Processes affecting bridges==
The high tides and frequent flooding in Venice damage the foundations of the bridge. ''[[Moto Ondoso]]'', the Italian phrase for wakes of passing boats, deteriorates the masonry and sometimes breaks off segments of the arch and or plaster. In addition to the gradual process of ''[[Moto Ondoso]]'' erosion, the constant foot traffic and cargo [[Transportation|transportation]] over time causes wear and tear on the steps and railings. More rarely (but also more violently) the undersides of [[Bridges|bridges]] experience deterioration when boats crash into the foundations or lower parts of the [[Masonry Bridge|Arches]]. Over time, [[Bridges|bridges]] suffer a certain degree of decay and [[Bridge Maintenance|bridge maintenance]] becomes necessary to keep them fully functional.

'''Bridge walls''' are built on the ''muro andatore'' component of the bridge framework. In both the [[wood bridge]] and [[metal bridge]] designs, the bridge walls resemble [[handrails]] found along the [[canals]]. A [[masonry bridge]], however, may have one of two bridge walls.

Bells

2014-06-16T16:18:45Z

Admin:

''This page is an overview of all the bells in Venice. For a typical bell, see [[Bell]].''

Venice has 203 '''bells''' spread throughout the city.

==History==
The beginning of bells dates back to 132 A.D. in China.The idea came from a Chinese philosopher by the name of Chang Heng, who invented the first known earthquake detector.

''For more information about bell history, see our [[Bells#External Links|External Links]].''

==Statistics==
Venice has 203 bells that have been documented, spread throughout the city. The conclusions made from data collected tell us about the conditions of the bells, what aspects they have in common, and general info such as age, number, and size. By examining the trends for the conditional ratings of bells, it is possible to determine the urgency for renovation. We can also see if this has any relation to the founder or the date of casting of the bells.

===Bell Sizes===
The largest bell documented is bell 2 of Sant’ Elena with a diameter of 152 cm, and the smallest bell documented is bell 4 of San Nicolò dei Mendicoli with a diameter of 21 cm.

[[File:BellSize.png|500px|center| Size of bells ]]

From the graph above, it can be determined that the most frequent size for the diameter of a bell is from 80 to 99 cm.. Ironically, the shape of the graph resembles a bell curve. The average ratio of diameter to internal bell height is 1.22 cm with a standard deviation of .106 cm. Therefore, the size of the bells may vary, but the shape is similar for all bells in the city.

===Ringing Methods===
The ringing method is the same for most bells in the city of Venice. Hammer and wheel are the primary types of ringing. However, wheel is most common, as 87% of the bells in Venice are rung by wheel. The second most common, are bells rung by both wheel and hammer, which is 12%. The graph below gives an idea of the popularity of these ringing mechanisms for the bells of Venice.

[[File:RingingMechanism.png|500px|center| Bell ringing mechanisms ]]

===Bell Condition===
Because bells are an integral part of the material culture of Venice, it’s important to track the conditions of bells so it is possible to determine when and how much renovation is needed. As discussed in [[Bell]], the materials that they are made from, although durable, are still vulnerable to chipping and cracking, discoloration, and rust. These criteria have been rated on a scale of 0 to 4: 0 meaning there is no need for restoration and 4 meaning that restoration is urgent.

[[File:ConditionOfBells.png|500px|center| Bell condition]]

The majority of the bells measured thus far have had a conditional rating of 1 for both cleanliness and discoloration. This means that there is some, but not a problematic amount. Rust had a slightly higher common rating of 2 which still is not very problematic. The ones that need restoration should have rating of 4 for each category. Luckily, there are 5 or less bells for each of the categories that had ratings of a 4. There seems to be little correlation between the three categories. Where there seems to be a great number of bells with a certain rating for one category, there may only be a few rated the same for a different category. Perhaps, when considering a bell for restoration, one may only have to confront one problem. However, from our data we found some bells with a rating of 4 in all categories, such as those in the bell tower of San Silvestro.

Bell towers

''This page is an overview of all the bell towers in Venice. For a typical bell tower, see [[Bell Tower]].''

There are a total of 107 bell towers in the islands of the Venetian Lagoon. These towers contain anywhere from 0-9 [[Bells]]. There are different styles of bell towers throughout Venice, mainly dependent on the time periods in which they were constructed. A bell tower is typically named based on the church_LINK it is associated with.

==Statistics==
Since 1992, the Venice Project Center has collected data on 41 of the 110 bell towers in Venice. While each tower does not have a complete set of data, several fields are almost if not completely filled.

===Sestiere===
[[File:PercentageOfBellTowersInEachSestiere.png|thumb||right|Towers by Sestiere]]
Castello is the sestiere with the most bell towers at 18, while Burano, with only one tower, has the least. Technically speaking, there are several islands that have no bell tower at all, but of the islands that have bell towers, Burano has the least. Below is a graph showing the percentage of bell towers in each sestiere.

As would be expected, the highest number of bell towers can be found on the main islands of Venice, particularly in Castello, Cannaregio, and Dorsuduro. The sestiere of Giudecca and Murano have almost as many bell towers as the main island districts of San Polo and Santa Croce. As is expected, the outlying islands have the lowest number of bell towers. Presumably the areas with a higher concentration of churches are in the areas with a higher population density.

===Height===
[[File:HeightsOfTowers.png|thumb||right|Heights of towers]]
The shortest tower, Santa Eufemia, is only 10m tall. The tallest tower is San Marco, at a whopping 98m in height. Below is a graph of the various tower heights.

The majority of towers are between 40 and 70 meters tall. For a bell tower this makes sense because the ultimate goal is to be able to hear the bells from some distance away. Between 0 and 40 meters the sound would get obstructed by surrounding buildings and wouldn’t travel very far. However, go too high and the sound has farther to travel and will dissipate considerably before reaching the ground.

===Bells===
[[File:NumberOfBellsPerTower.png|thumb|right|Bells per Tower]]
The tower of San Giorgio di Maggiore has 9 bells, the most in the city. With only two bells, Santa Maria di Nazateth Scalzi has the least. Once again, there are towers with no bells, but those are not included in the count. A graph with the number of bells in each tower is below.

Interestingly enough, the number of bells per tower forms an approximate bell curve peaking at 4. The reason for that is most likely musical. Three notes create a chord. In most cases, changing only one note in the chord can produce an entirely different sound. While three bells can produce one chord, having four means the tower can ring four different chords by changing which bell is silent. Another possibility is the size and shape of the belfry. Many of the towers have square belfries. Bell hangings are large and cumbersome, so having more than one per side may not be possible in some cases. <br />

Bell tower

''This article contains information about a typical Venetian bell tower. For an overview of all the bell towers, see [[Bell towers]].''

A Venetian bell tower, known in Italian as ''campanile'', is used to house many [[Bells]]. A bell tower is typically named based on the church it is associated with.

==Bell Tower Structure==
[[File:AnatomyOfABellTower_SanMarco.jpg|400px|thumb|right| Bell tower structure]] There are four main components to the structure of a bell tower: base, shaft, belfry, and spire. Each of these contributes to the overall style and integrity of the tower.

===Base===
The main purpose of the base is to maintain the structural integrity of the tower. The walls at the base of the tower are often thicker than those at the top. Non-porous materials are used so that it is resistant to salt water from flooding and heavy enough to withstand the pressure from the weight of the tower.

===Shaft===
The shaft is the part that contributes to the height of the tower and contains stairs, ramps, and landings that lead to the belfry. It is usually constructed of brick and mortar, which varied in strength based on the year that it was constructed. Brick makers improved upon the method for making bricks so that bricks could withstand a greater amount of pressure. In addition, to provide the tower with greater flexibility and support, some towers were built using metal rods.

===Belfry===
The belfry, located above the shaft, contains the bells and usually some type of landing. On the exterior, it is generally the most ornate part of the tower, built using brick and other types of stone or clay. Typically, there are windows or arched openings that let light through and occasionally netting to keep pigeons from entering. The bells are hung from the top of the belfry with wood, although some newer towers use metal. It has been found, however, that the vibration of the bell through the metal to the walls increases deterioration.

===Roof===
Above the belfry there may be an attic which provides additional storage or access to the top of the tower for maintenance. There may also be a balustrade, or a balcony with a railing that runs around the outside of the attic. This is usually accessible from the attic, so that one may enjoy a more expansive view and have additional access to the roof. To get to the attic, there is either a ladder or stairway.

The spire varies depending on the tower, but it can have many shapes: conical, pyramidal, bulbous, and others. On top of the spire there can also be a finial which ranges from functional, such as a weather vane or lightning rod, to ornamental, such as a cross or statue.

==Architectural Style==
Like most buildings, there are many different styles of tower architecture. Over the centuries many of the towers have seen numerous renovations resulting in overlapping styles, causing the original style to be virtually indistinguishable. Their eclectic nature reflects the city's history and the diverse ideas that evolved in Venice. Overall, bell towers contribute a great deal to the ambiance of the city. <br />
''For more information on architectural styles, see [[Bell tower#External Links| External Links]].''

==Bell Tower Maintenance==
[[File:EarthquakeDestruction_FinaleEmilia.jpg|150px|thumb|left| Earthquake destruction ]] ''This section needs improvement'' <br />
Catastrophic events such as earthquakes and flooding do not frequently cause any major damage, but deterioration is possible if the bell towers are not maintained properly. Although modern technology has reduced the need to ring the bells manually, it has resulted in people being removed from the process of maintaining those bells and their towers.

Bell Ringing

''This article discusses the various ways bells are rung. For an overview of all the bells in Venice, see [[Bells]]. For a typical bell, see [[Bell]].''

Bells don’t have one uniform way of being rung. In fact, the number of ways of ringing bells is almost as diverse as bells themselves.

==Swinging Systems==
There are two main types of swinging systems; one for western bells and one for Asian bells.

===Western Bells===

|}

Western bells, commonly found in churches, are categorized by three types of swinging systems; English, Central European, and Spanish. However, they all have the common trait of being struck by a piece of metal otherwise known as the clapper. Only the English and Central European systems are used in Italy.

====''English System''====
The English system is characterized by its 360° motion where the bells freely make full circles. This system is utilized in Northern Italy as well as Britain, Ireland, USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and Southern Africa.

====''Central European System''====
The Central European system commonly attaches counterweights to the tops of the bells which only allow them to swing a total of 160°. This system is found throughout Italy, as well as in Central Europe, USA, Canada, and in some Latin American Countries.

====''Spanish System''====
''For more information, see [[Bell Ringing#External Links|External Links]].''

===Asian Bells===
Asian bells, which are never suspended, are usually struck with a wooden mallet or a horizontal wooden beam in order to produce a sound. <br />
''For more information, see [[Bell Ringing#External Links|External Links]].''

==Types of Swinging==
Swinging bell types can be further divided into four ways they are swung: clocking, chiming, tooling, and ringing.

===Clocking===
Clocking occurs when a rope attached directly to the clapper is pulled against the bell to strike it.

===Chiming===
Chiming, also known as tolling, involves an external hammer which is either controlled by hand or by machine.

===Tooling===
Tooling has a rope attached to the bell directly and the bell itself is swung. This can be extremely difficult, near impossible, considering bells can weigh as much as several tons.

===Ringing===
During ringing, the bell is swung from side to side, typically on a wheel. This type is the common method used in the western swinging systems. Either a flying or a falling clapper is used with the ringing system.

====''Flying Clapper''====
A flying clapper begins with a bell attached to the pivot point of what is known as a head-stock or yoke, generally composed of either wood or steel. A pulley system is attached to the yoke from which a rope is fed and pulled to rock the bell which causes the clapper to swing freely or “fly” and strike against the bell. This clapper is used with the English and Central European systems.

====''Falling Clapper''====
A falling clapper involves a counterweight attached to the yoke allowing the bell to pivot with a high center of gravity. The clapper initially hangs at the pivot point and falls onto the walls of the bell with changing directions. This clapper is used with the Spanish system.

==Automated Ringing==
While many of the previous sections suggest manual ringing of the bells, a popular trend has developed in which the bells are governed by an automated system.

===Motorized Ringing===
A common type of automated system involves a motor with cables leading up to either side of the bell wheel. The motor is activated when the bell reaches the peak of its swing by spinning the cables in the opposite direction which, in turn, reverses the bell’s direction. A drawback for this system was that it couldn't monitor the state of the bell in case its swinging became erratic. This problem was later remedied by outfitting the motor with a computer which would halt the bell in case of malfunction.

===Mechanical Striker===
Another automated ringing system involves a mechanized striker which can be installed either on the outside of the bell (often used for swinging or stationary bells) or on the inside (only used for stationary bells).

Bell

''This page is a description of a typical Venetian bell. For an overview of all the bells in Venice, see [[Bells]].''

A Venetian bell, known in Italian as ''campana'', has had many different uses. Before modern times, bells had more purpose than pure musical entertainment. They were signals of danger, disaster, and alarm. Many bells of today were built in medieval times, and were manufactured using a specific set of techniques and materials.

==Bell Construction==
The casting of bells is a delicate and precise process. The style of a particular bell depends upon the foundry in which it was made, along with the materials that compose it and the period of its creation.

===Material of Bells===
The most common material for bells is bronze, an alloy of copper and tin. Very rarely bells were cast in steel and cast iron. This shift in bell materials occurred mainly during times of war, when alloys such as bronze were in short supply since copper was needed in the manufacturing of some weapons. Around 1857 A.D. a combination of iron and carbon, also known as steel, became a material for bell-making. Not soon after it had begun being used it was discarded since the compound was deemed unsuitable for a material of bells.

===Bell Casting and Founding===
Bells have typically been made using the same process for over six centuries. A popular method of bell casting is to use sand-casting. In medieval times, when many bells were being produced, molds were made from clay to make a template for the bells. A bell mold had a center mold and an outer mold, where molten bronze was poured between the two and then allowed to cool to take the shape of a bell. Back in the middle ages, sometimes wooden templates were also used. Through the use of these templates the distinctive shape of the bells was formed. <br />
''For more information about bell founding, see external_LINK.''

===Bell Frame Design===
Two bell frame types are primarily used to suspend bells, the H frame and the A frame. The H frame occurs when the bell is suspended on a cross bar made of heavy H castings usually composed of a durable metal material such as cast iron. The metal material resists twisting and provides a secure base for the bell. The popularity of this type of design resides in its greater convenience and construction.

Example of an H Frame: <br />
[[File:ExampleOfHFrame_SanFelice.jpg|300px||| Example of an H Frame ]] <br />
Example of an A Frame: <br />
[[File:ExampleOfAFrame_SantaMariaDiNazarethScalzi.jpg|300px||| Example of an A Frame ]]

===Anatomy of a Bell===
All church bells have similar features. There is the crown, in which the vibrations mostly come from and the shoulder, which is the curvature at the top. The part that induces the sound, in most cases, is the clapper which is the long piece that hangs from the top of the inside of the bell. When rung it hits the strike point, or soundbow, of the bell. <br />
''For more information on bell ringing, see [[Bell]]

[[File:PartsOfABell.jpg|400px||center| Bell Anatomy ]]

===Bell Decoration===
When ancient bells were cast, the moldings and decor on them were treated as a form of art. The inscriptions, figures, and design on each bell were well thought out by the founder and were intended to be a reflection of the founders work.

Most European bells are similar in their decorations, which usually include an inscription about where or when they were made or an engraving of a religious figure. Another trend founders have implemented was to design a trademark with a symbol or initials instead of writing out the full name of the founder.

Historical figures are a common form of art found on bells. These include effigies of saints, angels, or royal leaders. In addition, one may find the shield of the patron who invested in the tower or church. However, the most frequently used decor were inscriptions which offer information of whom the bell was dedicated to, who the maker or donor was, when it was cast, and other supplemental information. These are typically in Latin, although some may be in the native Italian.

IMAGES with examples

==Bronze Corrosion==
Most of the bells in Venice, being made of bronze, suffer from a cyclic degrading process known as Bronze disease. The disease refers to a chemical process in which the copper in bronze reacts with elements and moisture in the atmosphere creating a film signifying corrosion. Bell towers provide perfect conditions for bronze disease to propagate by leaving bells exposed to environmental conditions such as humidity, high winds, rain, and moisture. The thick green coating has the ability to transform the object by corroding the surface and possibly removing valuable artwork from its face. Many of the bells have intricate images exuding from their surfaces making corrosion a significant problem. <br />

A Detailed look at the Changing Venetian Retail Sector

|abstract=Since World War II, the entire face of the Venetian retail sector has changed quite
considerably. Since 2004, student teams from Worcester Polytechnic Institute have studied the
evolution of stores in the whole city, revealing that there were at least 4506 shops in Venice of
which 856 are now closed. Moreover, many stores that used to meet the needs of locals have
since been converted to cater to tourists. There are multiple reasons for these transformations
including the demographic decline, the huge increase in the number of visitors, and the advent
of supermarkets. This project collected the current status of storefronts in the Castello area and
created a solid baseline for future data collection and analysis, allowing for stronger conclusions
to be made.

1800 Stockdale A Plan of the City of Venice

2014-06-16T14:53:37Z

Admin:

This map is a good depiction of the city of Venice in the year 1800. The author, John Stockdale, was born a blacksmith but then moved into making maps.

The map he produced of Venice is a good depiction of the city, taking into account that he was making the map on ground level.

There is a small portion of the map that is incorrect based on the size of the islands. However, the map a a whole is very detailed and through.

This map has been used as a bench mark for the shape of Venice from the year 1800.

The map can be seen below.

The '''Venice Project Center''', a research facility operated by [http://www.wpi.edu/ Worcester Polytechnic Institute], was founded in 1988 by Fabio Carrera. Since then, [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/pub?key=0AkELG5jkw_b4dEpxb0d4QWxWSjRYU1hpVWFUMlR1Q3c&output=html more than 180 projects] have been completed (by more than 640 students) addressing a host of challenges, from maintaining the city's famous canals, analyzing its boat traffic, and cataloging its public art.

The Venice Project Center's website is located at [http://veniceprojectcenter.org/ veniceprojectcenter.org]. Other VPC projects include:

==Directions to the Venice Project Center==
Take '''Boat Line 1''' down the Grand Canal to the '''Rialto Mercato''' boat stop. Disembark and take a right, walking towards the Rialto Market (Campo de la Pescaria). You will skirt along the southwest side of the market (with a view of the Grand Canal), and head for the bridge after you walk underneath the arches of the building that constitutes the roof of the covered fish market. Cross the bridge and walk along the Fondamenta de l'Olio (still along Grand Canal) until you reach Calle dei Boteri (1st left).<br>
Walk all the way down '''Calle dei Boteri''', then take a right and walk through the little square and down the very narrow street which emerges onto the Calle de le Carampane. Take a right. There will be a restaurant on your right. Walk past the restaurant until you come up to a bridge. Do not cross it, but walk to the end of '''Fondamenta de le Tette''', look for number 1932/A and the WPI label. Knock on the door.

==How to get to the ''Rialto Mercato'' boat stop from airport==
When you land at Venice “Marco Polo” airport, you have two options to reach the '''Rialto Mercato''' boat stop:<br>
<br>
'''1 - by land:''' you need to get to '''Piazzale Roma''' with public bus line 5 ([http://www.actv.it/pdf/urbano/U-5.pdf time table] / [http://www.actv.it/pdf/piante_automobilistico/5-UM.pdf bus roadmap]), from '''Piazzale Roma''' take pubblic boat line 1 (direction Rialto) and disembark at '''RIALTO MERCATO'''

'''2 - by water (venetian-style):''' you can use water public boat service '''ALILAGUNA BLUE''' ([http://www.alilaguna.it/lineablu.html time table and roadmap]) to reach '''Fondamente Nuove''' boat stop, then follow path on map below (Figure 4). This is the easiest way...<BR> From Ca' d'Oro take pubblic boat line 1 (direction Rialto) to '''RIALTO MERCATO''' (one stop); alternatively you can take "Gondola Traghetto" and cross the Canal Grande with a Gondola!! It only costs 50 euro cents!

The '''Venice Project Center''', a research facility operated by [http://www.wpi.edu/ Worcester Polytechnic Institute], was founded in 1988 by Fabio Carrera. Since then, [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/pub?key=0AkELG5jkw_b4dEpxb0d4QWxWSjRYU1hpVWFUMlR1Q3c&output=html more than 180 projects] have been completed (by more than 640 students) addressing a host of challenges, from maintaining the city's famous canals, analyzing its boat traffic, and cataloging its public art.

The Venice Project Center's website is located at [http://veniceprojectcenter.org/ veniceprojectcenter.org]. Other VPC projects include:

==Directions to the Venice Project Center==
Take '''Boat Line 1''' down the Grand Canal to the '''Rialto Mercato''' boat stop. Disembark and take a right, walking towards the Rialto Market (Campo de la Pescaria). You will skirt along the southwest side of the market (with a view of the Grand Canal), and head for the bridge after you walk underneath the arches of the building that constitutes the roof of the covered fish market. Cross the bridge and walk along the Fondamenta de l'Olio (still along Grand Canal) until you reach Calle dei Boteri (1st left).<br>
Walk all the way down '''Calle dei Boteri''', then take a right and walk through the little square and down the very narrow street which emerges onto the Calle de le Carampane. Take a right. There will be a restaurant on your right. Walk past the restaurant until you come up to a bridge. Do not cross it, but walk to the end of '''Fondamenta de le Tette''', look for number 1932/A and the WPI label. Knock on the door.

==How to get to the ''Rialto Mercato'' boat stop from airport==
When you land at Venice “Marco Polo” airport, you have two options to reach the '''Rialto Mercato''' boat stop:<br>
<br>
'''1 - by land:''' you need to get to '''Piazzale Roma''' with public bus line 5 ([http://www.actv.it/pdf/urbano/U-5.pdf time table] / [http://www.actv.it/pdf/piante_automobilistico/5-UM.pdf bus roadmap]), from '''Piazzale Roma''' take pubblic boat line 1 (direction Rialto) and disembark at '''RIALTO MERCATO'''

'''2 - by water (venetian-style):''' you can use water public boat service '''ALILAGUNA BLUE''' ([http://www.alilaguna.it/lineablu.html time table and roadmap]) to reach '''Fondamente Nuove''' boat stop, then follow path on map below (Figure 4). This is the easiest way...<BR> From Ca' d'Oro take pubblic boat line 1 (direction Rialto) to '''RIALTO MERCATO''' (one stop); alternatively you can take "Gondola Traghetto" and cross the Canal Grande with a Gondola!! It only costs 50 euro cents!

Traditional Boats

2014-01-13T04:59:01Z

Admin:

The term traditional boat refers to boats with flat bottoms and shallow draft hulls. Due to the shallow water in the canals, the ''[[squerarioli]]'' were forced to craft the boats with a flat bottom to keep them from hitting the bottom of the canal. The shallow hull allowed the boats to be dragged to shore with minimal structural damage, made it easier for people to get in and out of the boat, and made it easier for standing passengers to balance. Such features were important for passengers crossing the Grand Canal in a type of ''[[gondola]]'' called a ''[[gondola da traghetto]]'' because it was customary for passengers to remain standing.
[[File:gondola.jpg|right|thumb|View of a ''gondola's'' ferro]]

==Types==
Traditional Venetian boats can be sub-divided into the three main categories listed below:

===Fishing and Hunting===

Venice, like many coastal cities, is known for its seafood cuisine. Fishing in the [[lagoon]] requires boats that are capable of transporting large amounts of fish back to the island and the ability to maneuver within the lagoon. Three of the most-well known fishing and hunting boats are the ''[[topo]]'', ''[[sanpierota]]'', and the ''[[s'ciopon]]''.

===Large Cargo Transport===

The city of Venice relies on boats for most large [[cargo]] transportation. Cargo boats are filled with anything from fresh fruit to construction supplies – everything the city needs is transported by boat. Transporting large, heavy cargo requires a vessel strong enough to do so, while maintaining maneuverability throughout the canals. Two of the most well-known large cargo transport boats are the ''[[caorlina]]'' and ''[[peata]]''.

===Human Transport===

In early Venice, traditional boats were used as a means of both personal and public transportation. The most common and well-known human transport boats are the ''[[sandolo]]'', ''[[mascareta]]'', ''[[puparin]]'', and ''[[gondola]]''. Today motorized boats have replaced many of these human powered boats, and only the ''[[gondola]]'' remains as a tourist attraction.

==Damage and Preservation==

For information pertaining to the damage of traditional Venetian boats, please see the [[Damage to public art]] page.

For information pertaining to the preservation of traditional Venetian boats, please see the [[Restoration and preservation of public art]] page.
