Abstract
In the study of traditional construction equipment the building elements in iron are generally present little if neglected at all. In the historical centres, also in eastern Sicily, you can see the widespread presence of iron works such as railings, front doors, shelters. The documentation of their geometrical and constructive aspects, therefore, becomes an important factor for the preservation of the urban image. The analysis here conducted on the ironworks, in eastern Sicily, has been done to identify their formal and constructive aspects and define their mensiochronological parameters
