The works formed a part of the preparations for the XX Winter Olympics and involved the demolition and war damage reinstatement of the Lingotto area and the city stadium, all completed in record time.

The works carried out for “Agenzia Torino 2006” included the demolition of the stands, the old athletics field, swimming pool and all sports equipment in the area adjacent to the Turin Stadium. This was to make space for the construction of the new Palahockey stadium for the Winter Olympics held in February 2006. The building was, without doubt, one of the most important buildings constructed for the Olympics.

The short time period allowed for the work did not leave much time for mobilising personnel, machinery and equipment. However, thanks to the efforts of Vitali, the work was completed successfully and on time. The project was divided into three working phases. Phase I was the demolition of the structure (20,000 cubic metres and height up to 25 metres) housing the old stands of the athletics field, the perimeter walls and buried passages. Phase II involved excavating the entire area to make way for the planned Palahockey building. In brief, not only demolition, but also construction work. All in just 6 months.
The design of the demolition phases and the specific working methods adopted enabled the project to be completed two months ahead of schedule, thus obtaining the bonus provided for by the contract for early completion.
