Italian term

caratteristiche statiche particolari e di sistema

Italian to English Tech/Engineering Construction / Civil Engineering restoration
"Uno dei criteri di fondo per una progettazione strutturale coerente col contesto architettonico di un edificio storico quale XYZ è il rispetto delle *caratteristiche statiche particolari e di sistema* del fabbricato e l’attuazione di interventi, non invasivi, che non apportino modifiche al suo assetto generale e che, ancor meno, siano in contrasto con la sua estetica e architettura"

speaking of the restoration of a historical Palazzo...my problem is with "particolari e di sistema"... can any building/construction savvy translators out there shed some light?

TIA

It means individual details and the building as a whole. I'm not sure you need to make this distinction in English - you could just say "the statics of the structure".
