    A cosa servono gli accenti metallici? Hanno uno scopo?

    Camminando per le città e i villaggi più antichi continuo a vedere queste sbarre di metallo all’esterno degli edifici. Servono a uno scopo o semplicemente accentuano l’arredamento dell’esterno?

      They do serve a purpose. They help hold the masonry together (or tied to the wooden flooring, which results in the same thing). Sometimes they might be purely decorative though. I guess it’s not the case in your pics.

      Dat zijn gevelankers die er voor zorgen dat de gevel niet kantelt. In de moderne bouw worden die nog steeds gebruikt, maar zijn ze volledig weggewerkt

      Afaik they join the inner wood beams to the outer walls, so the structure is secure. Old technology, but adds character. Nowadays they are often added as decoration in newer buildings.

      Yes. They are anchors, preventing bulging of outer walls or anchoring floors or beams to the facade.

      This can be used to prevent a wall to bend and collapse. They put a long steel shaft across the house and put those anchors at each ends. They heat the steel shaft which dilates. They screw the anchors as there is more room now. Then the steel cool down which pulls the wall in a few multimeter. They do this operation again until the walls are straight and then it prevents the walls to bend ever again.
