A friend of mine is writing her thesis in order to graduate and she has to write the abstract in english too. Can anybody correct these notes?
"This work focus on a new swim structure/system in the area of the former racetrack in Prato, a project created in order to replace the existing/current open swimming pool on the purpose of giving a response to the athletic community in this town and promote a better development of all the water-based activities.
It was necessary to search, discover and make all the trails emerge from this district which was a flourishing area, whose resources have been analysed so that it was possibile to use all these elements as the starting point for new structures.
We interpreted all the layers of the previous cultures occured during the centuries, such as centuriazione romana etc(..) in order to preserve/mantein the connection/bond with the foundation of the city, the nature and the human labour in this spaces caracterizing the growth of the town.
The particular morphological conditions of this area allowed all the populations to create the structures based on the organisation of the water, fundamental for the livelihood of the city, the reason why Prato became the city of the factories.
The main idea was to follow and respect all the lines, the units and the partitions created by the canals, moats and trenches useful for the mills in order to draw attention to the regulation of the water discharge and the subdivison of fields and especially to highlight the natural relationship bewteen the human being and the water.
For that reason it was necessary to conceive a place which should be used for competions but also for leisure activities.
The structures alternate with a free method sequence which allows/permits to add other structures in case of need/requirement. Simple facilities intertwined with open spaces made to create a connection between the public park and the one reserved/restrained for the guests/costumers of the swimming pool."
Does it make sense?
Thank you!

Thank you!
*One can write 'lido' = open-air swimming pool, at least in UK English.
**If you mean the structures alternate a blah sequence = a32 h30 u12 a32 h30 u12 a32.... then you should say the structures alternate a blah sequence which allows... (I don't understand 'free method sequence').
***I assume you are doing some archaeology?
