Abstract:
A proper approach to restoration of historic buildings is crucial for monumental heritage protection. The objective of the paper is to define a methodology for historic buildings restoration in order to increase energy efficiency and re-usability in accordance with modern standards. The main method used in the paper is the observation of historic buildings during their restoration and exploitation, analysis and evaluation of achieved results regarding energy efficiency and energy saving, through the examples of the buildings belonging to Hilandar Monastery, Mount Athos, in Greece. Mount Athos was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List for its cultural and natural values. This case study discusses the abandoned and dilapidated historic buildings of the Haybarn Complex (Stable, Mulekeepers? House and Haybarn), the achieved results regarding the restoration of these buildings, their energy efficiency and turning into the premises for occasional stays. The research results are recommendations for increasing energy efficiency while performing the restoration of historic buildings, so that these buildings could be re-used in a new way. The most significant contribution of the paper is the practical test of energy refurbishment of these historic buildings conducted using the principles and methods of energy efficiency, in compliance with conservation requirements and authenticity of historic buildings.

Abstract:
This study aims to provide basic data for actual heritage conservation areas by suggesting the reuse method of materials from wooden historic buildings. This research may contribute to an increase in the utilization of materials for stabilizing the structure of wooden historic buildings. The data were collected by applying heating, tapping, and heat treatment based on the pattern and extent of the damage of iron nails acquired from wooden historic buildings. To make a comparison before and after processing, morphological characteristics and physical properties were measured using a metallurgical analysis. According to these data, we can infer that the possibility of reuse of historic iron materials could be raised in the restoration process of historic buildings such as existing building components and roof tiles. If the research is to move forward, authenticity will be fostered in architectural heritage conservation.

Abstract:
Thousands of years have passed since the construction of historic buildings or monuments, and they are often the most enduring and well-known symbols of former civilizations. It is vital that these national emblems of cultural and historical significance be preserved for future generations. Each heritage structure has its own distinctive characteristics and aesthetic finishes, as well as its own set of conservation concerns that necessitate innovative solutions. Pollution, age, fire, catastrophic occurrences such as earthquakes, floods, tsunamis, cyclones, soil-structure interaction (soil settlement, etc.), structural flaws, and a variety of other variables all contribute to the degradation of structures. Historic buildings are important monuments, thus this will be a severe setback for the country. It is critical to choose the right technique for restoration based on the parent structure's look. The new techniques must be compatible with the structure. This paper focuses on such challenges and corrective techniques to solve them while keeping the cultural integrity of the structure.

Abstract:
The Civil Servants Joint Stock Fund (C.S.J.S.F.), since its establishment in 1867, has invested part of its funds in acquiring real estate properties during the interwar period in Greece. The real estate selection was a very significant process for the Fund’s administration, investing on buildings situated in the historic center of Athens and designed by well-known architects. The fund also initiated the restoration procedures in order to keep its real estate up to date with respect to their importance as milestones of Greek Culture. This paper presents a part of the Fund’s heritage preservation policy and its extensive protection, conservation, restoration, and rehabilitation program; referring briefly to the historical and architectural description of the five (C.S.J.S.F.) historical buildings, in addition to the conservation and restoration projects for one of them; the Deligiorgi Residence, which was designed by the architect Ernst Ziller. The restoration work underlines the ultimate need for heritage preservation, and the importance of being sensitive to the historical character of the buildings, thereby improving their economic status and contributing to the sustainable preservation of architectural and cultural heritage within historic cities.

Abstract:
This study examines the strategic use of life cycle cost analyses (LCCAs) in the management and conservation of heritage sites, emphasizing the need for comprehensive financial planning. With an increasing number of heritage sites showing signs of deterioration, our aim was to improve the sustainability and effectiveness of restoration practices. We used dynamic life cycle costing methods and developed the MONUREV software V2 to simulate different restoration scenarios, providing accurate, data-driven projections for maintaining structural, functional and aesthetic integrity. The field research involved testing these methods through case studies of heritage buildings in the Czech Republic, focusing on holistic cost management from initial analysis to practical application. The results showed that LCC analysis can significantly assist in making informed decisions, balancing economic and cultural values, and ensuring long-term conservation outcomes. This study concludes that the integration of a detailed LCC analysis into heritage conservation strategies represents a methodological advance that can significantly improve the economic and operational planning of the maintenance of heritage buildings, thereby ensuring their preservation for future generations.

Abstract:
Preservationists and historic sites managers need to be aware of the affects of excess man-made vibrations on historic structures. The purpose of this creative project is to examine those affects and identify some methods to mitigate them. To write this project, it was necessary to search through available literature identifying past research and studies on this subject. Research was culled from various sources examining the affects of vibrations on new and historic structures and are presented here in one volume.The affects of vibrations on historic structures is not a subject that is well represented in preservation or structural engineering literature. The information currently available is scattered through various sources. Thus, there is the lack of a single reference examining the affects of vibrations on historic structures. This project is meant to be used as a reference for historic preservationists, house museum curators, and historic sites managers who seek information about vibration effects and possible solutions to their vibration problem.

Abstract:
As a contribution to econometric research on the role of architectural heritage, this dissertation evaluates non-aggregate data for a total of 2142 designated National Priority Protected Sites (NPPS) in China using hedonic model and ordered probit model. Attempting to verify economic costs of conserving architectural heritage sites in China, the objectives of the dissertation are to find out the grading system of NPPS; to compare the monetary value and non-monetary value methods on architectural heritage conservation; to identify the current criteria of national heritage conservation maintenance funding (NHCMF) allocation for the NPPS; and to select and evaluate the key factors of NHCMF allocation for the NPPS. The research question of this dissertation is: “what are the decision criteria of NHCMF allocation in China?”. The dissertation conceives of one general hypothesis and 17 empirical hypotheses. The general hypothesis is based on the maintenance funding and grading system of each conservation project. The empirical hypotheses are generated from possible determined factors of NHCMF allocation, theories of sustainable development, economic value and heritage value. Based on the real market information, 7 factors have been identified as the determined factors of NHCMF allocation of NPPS. They are “average household income”, “annual economic benefit”, “average personal salary”, “population”, “ticket”, “types modern building” and “types revolutionary sites”. Of these 7 factors, on the one hand, “average household income”, “annual economic benefit”, “population”, “entry ticket fee” and “types (revolutionary sites)” have positive relationship with the maintenance cost. The positive relationship result implies that the revolutionary sites locate in economic developed area with more population and higher entry ticket fee are more likely to get more maintenance funding. On the other hand, “average personal salary” and “types (modern buildings)” have negative relationship with maintenance funding. The negative relationship result reflects that modern buildings of NPPS with higher average personal salary are less likely getting more maintenance funding. Based on the hypothetical market data, 4 factors have been identified as the determined factors of NHCMF allocation of NPPS. The factors of “population and “annual economic benefit” have the same relationship with monetary market data. The “maintenance funding” and “original usage” have negative relationship with grading system.

Abstract:
Thesis (MTech (Design))--Cape Peninsula University of Technology, 2016.
Historical interiors hold within them significance which provides us with cultural identity, as well as historical and aesthetic value, and their physical materials offer us a connection to the past. These interiors and their functions often become obsolete and need to acquire a new function that is more suited to our modern-day society. One such change in function which was identified to be steadily on the rise in Cape Town is the reappropriation of historical interiors into contemporary exhibition venues. It was noted that during this process many of these historical interiors end up as neutral contemporary white boxes, where the whole historical interior is replaced or concealed by a pristine white interior and this leads to a loss of its internal historical aesthetic value. To counter this and to retain the significant aesthetics of these interiors for ourselves and our future generations, heritage legislation offers a certain amount of protection through their respective guidelines and principles during adaptation. However, these guidelines do not offer concrete methods on the responsive adaptation of historical interiors into contemporary exhibition spaces. To address this problem and provide a substitute for the white box, alternative methods for the responsive adaptation of the historical interior into a contemporary exhibition space are highlighted and investigated. Through this investigation, this study aims to provide responsive approaches which interior designers may adopt during adaptation that respect, acknowledge and highlight the significance of the reappropriated space in the design of contemporary exhibition venues.

Abstract:
This creative project explains the process of creating and administering a university historic resource district. Objectives of this district are protection, planning, and promotion of important campus elements, both manmade and natural. The aim of the university historic resource district is the preservation of historic structures, stimulation of pride, and the possibility of the resolution of preservation - based conflicts.The campus is first inventoried to identify the resources available. Once completed, the inventoried information is evaluated. Findings are then mapped and areas of prime concentration identified.Guidelines are then established, providing a basis to improve and protect the campus character. Preservation of the dominant characteristics and unifying elements of the campus is the main focus of the guidelines.The district would be administered by an advisory committee with broad representation. The committee would review projects that the university proposes and make recommendations based on guidelines or relevant criteria.The university district is predicated on the theory that by allowing outside involvement and arriving at decisions through consensus, university users will not feel powerless toward campus decisions. The resulting cooperative effort would be beneficial to the university users, the community at large, and the university administrators.

Abstract:
Do citizen volunteers, sitting on legislatively created local historic architectural review boards, represent a part of the American governance tradition? This study examines the relationships between public board members, citizen interests, career public administrators and the elected appointing authorities. This research involved a national survey of over 1200 members of boards of historic architectural review. In addition, four town or county case studies are presented in detail. These case studies are Jonesborough, Tennessee; Lynchburg, Virginia; Cobb County, Georgia; and Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. These case studies are examined through an ecological perspective. Within the context of this study, boards of historic architectural review are very much a part of the urban/town/county governance model. They are highly professional in their composition, highly egalitarian, and deeply committed to furthering highly individualistic notions of community. Although some national community studies suggest a malaise in communitarian ideals, this research suggests just the contrary. The failure of citizenship falls more upon the legitimacy accorded to citizens as public administrators rather than an apathy toward manifesting that citizenship. Historic preservation itself is in a national state of disarray. Its ethos is poorly defined, and the national wellspring for preservation impetus to the local community is strained. Most communities find themselves struggling to fit a nostalgic, sentimental vision of the preserved environment into a well articulated economic model. This research suggests that local historic architectural review boards need to draw upon themselves to create better opportunities through self-study and formal certification programs. By enhancing their natural reserves of professionalism and commitment, they will advertise what they already do very well: administer in the public interest. By joining with like-minded community-based public boards this new coalition promises a energy and direction for municipal governments. The key is to foster an open environment of dialogue and debate centered on furthering good, responsive government.

Abstract:
At first sight, modernity and conservation practice may seem to be an unlikely conjunction. Conservation is concerned with the practical details of preserving objects of the past, while modernity, as a climate of thought, relates to the present and to aspirations and concerns for the future. However, conservation, as a concern of the present, is directed to preserving objects of the past as a bequest to the future. Modernity, in turn, is a way of thought, whose origins are deeply imbedded in the past and in a history of thinking which conditions how we look at the world and our culture today. The key element, unifying theory and practice, is the question of what should be conserved and what may be accepted as being of no value to the future. The conservation of structures, buildings and places is based on a critical appraisal of significance. The importance of cultural significance is recognised in the ‘Burra Charter which is an agreement on the code of ethics, objectives and methods of practice for professionals engaged in conservation in Australia. The recognition of sigmificance is fundamental to conservation practice. The way we determine significance by objectifying the environment is' a problem, which modernity not only poses, but also conditions by developing culture in the act of naming, coding and classifying the past. Much has been written about the dileumas of culture in recent years. The critique of modernity has taken many fronts. For example, current consciousness challenges thoughts on the consequences of the consumption of. natural resources on a world—wide ecological basis .‘ This thesis attempts to explore relevant aspects of the critique; and to ask how it relates to theory and practice in the conservation of the historic environment. The area of cultural theory which is discussed, offers visions of culture which are different to those which bind the, often narrow and over-objectified, approach to planning and regulating environmental change. Six different perspectives are constructed to relate the concerns of sigrificance in modernity and the concerns of conservation practice. These are concerned with; the historic parallels between conservation and modernity; the classification of significance; visibility and authority; associations and image; narratives and rationalities; and the problem of authenticity in practice. The thesis taps the underlying critiques which offer alternative perspectives on cultural significance and conservation practice. Several perspectives are explored including phenomenolog', hermeneutics, semiotics, post-structuralism and other critical theories which draw on the works of Hegel, Heidegger, Benjamin, Merleau—Ponty, Barthes, Foucault, de Certeau, Bourdieu and Habermas among others. Conclusions are drawn with reference to case studies from Qaeensland.

Abstract:
Lime mortars have been indicated for restoration and conservation interventions in historic buildings, however, the slow hardening of these mortars does not favor their use and dissemination in construction areas. The inclusion of pozzolans improves these properties, and although the results achieved are not close to those found in conventional cementitious mortars, they are seen as compatible materials for restoration services, since they present moderate mechanical responses and chemical compatibility. This chapter aims to show the impact of different pozzolans on fresh and hardened lime mortar’s properties, including mechanical, rheological, and microstructural properties. In addition, an overview of historical mortars is presented.

Full text
Abstract:
Karl Langer (1903-1969), architect, town planner, landscape architect and academic fled Austria for Australia, settling in Brisbane in 1939. Required to spend the Second World War as a draftsman with Queensland Railways Department and denied a planning position with the Brisbane City Council, Langer commenced private practice (1946-1969). His significant influence on Queensland’s built environment is now belatedly being recognised and has resulted in the recent publication of Karl Langer: Modern Architect and Migrant in the Australian Tropics. This paper explores Langer’s contribution to the establishment of the heritage movement, as an early member of the National Trust of Queensland. Like many of his contemporaries, in Australia and overseas, he was both a modernist and a conservationist. Langer joined the Trust in 1964, its first year of operation, and was deeply involved when it acquired its first property in 1965. The property Wolston House is an 1852 stone farmhouse on the suburban fringes of Brisbane. He gave architectural advice on the physical condition of the building and prepared landscape plans for the grounds. He was a member of the restoration and appeal committees and prepared the artwork for the fundraising brochure. Before the term ‘adaptive reuse’ had currency, Langer advised the Trust on converting the 1870s bedroom annex into a caretaker’s residence and coffee shop. The annex was unceremoniously demolished, but Langer, the sophisticated European modernist, was at the heart of an early debate about conservation. Langer represented Queensland on the Australian Council of National Trusts committee which deliberated on classifications and criteria by which the heritage value of buildings would be determined. He contributed to the establishment of the early lists of historic Queensland buildings and wrote a paper on the conservation of landscape in urban areas. Langer’s unexpected death in 1969 meant that his influence on the nascent heritage movement in Queensland was foundational but is largely forgotten or misinterpreted. His legacy remains in his surviving buildings, eight of which are now heritage listed.

Zammit, Sarah-Jane. "Notre-Dame as the Memory of Paris: Hugo, the Historical Novel and Conservation." In The 39th Annual Conference of the Society of Architectural Historians Australia and New Zealand. PLACE NAME: SAHANZ, 2023. http://dx.doi.org/10.55939/a5050pxtvl.

Full text
Abstract:
Controversies surrounding the restoration and representation of the narrative and memory of Notre-Dame de Paris are not new. The latest debates remind us that the building has been at the centre of conservation controversies since the nineteenth century. But why is Notre-Dame de Paris central to these debates? The answer appears to lie in its function as a mnemonic device for Paris and the French nation. This paper focuses on the four literary pieces published by Victor Hugo in the period between 1823 and 1832 – ‘Le Bande Noir’ (‘The Black Band’), ‘Note sur la Destruction des Monuments en France’ (‘Note on the Destruction of Monuments in France’), ‘Guerre aux Démolisseurs!’ (‘War on the Demolishers!’) and Notre-Dame de Paris (also known as The Hunchback of Notre-Dame). Through an analysis of these four texts, the paper will attempt to understand Hugo’s convictions about the role of buildings – especially Notre-Dame de Paris – in establishing the memory of the city and the nation, and how these in turn underpinned his arguments for conservation. Whilst these texts were all written in a period before the development of key contemporary concepts in the psychology and neuroscience of memory, this paper nevertheless uses the concepts of memory, imagination and Mental Time Travel to try to understand the kind of memory work that the Cathedral performs, and that Hugo suggests it performs in his writing. By examining how Hugo’s literature augmented and engaged the reader’s memory and imagination of the past, this paper will explain how Hugo romanticised the idea that the building was a witness to history. The paper ultimately argues that Hugo positioned Notre-Dame de Paris not only as the centrepiece in his own fiction, but as a beacon of memory for Paris and France, and as such the building came to represent Paris, and indeed the nation as a whole.

Abstract:
Cultural heritage conservation and restoration work is a complex process that includes documentation, data collection, interpretation and production. By integrating the BIM (Building Information Modeling) methodology into this process, the concept of HBIM (Historic Building Information Modeling) has been formed. In this article, the progress of this process with the HBIM methodology in the restoration, protection and management studies of cultural heritage buildings and sites requiring collective and holistic work, the evaluation of access to the information obtained, and the provision of interdisciplinary information exchange were analyzed. By using the SWOT analysis method, the opportunities and threats offered by using the HBIM working methodology were evaluated and the strengths and weaknesses of the HBIM technology were determined. As a result of the SWOT analysis, it has been determined that the HBIM application will positively contribute to the heritage structures and increase in the direction of potential opportunities by eliminating the weaknesses.

Full text
Abstract:
The architectural conservation and restoration movements emerged in the Western world in the mid-nineteenth century, in part as a reaction to the acceleration of visible aging of buildings caused by the Industrial Revolution and associated changes in air quality. At the same time, Enlightenment ideals established at the end of the eighteenth century reinforced the relatively new idea that a building could have a single author and a fixed state. A new drive towards ‘restoration’ – the return of a building to a glorified singular past state – led William Morris in 1877 to establish the Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings (SPAB), whose manifesto marked the dawn of the age of conservation and essentially prohibited any interference with old buildings. What emerged was a debate between those who favoured “scraping” (restorationists, e.g. nineteenth-century French architect Viollet-le-Duc) and those who were “anti-scrape” (conservationists, e.g. nineteenth-century English architecture writer John Ruskin and architect William Morris). Recent scholarship in English and eco-critical studies by Jesse Oak Taylor, Philip Steer, Heidi Scott and others has drawn attention to anxieties about climate change that began early as the mid-nineteenth century and became widespread by the turn of the twentieth, as manifest in Victorian-era English-language literature. Little has been written about the influence of such anxieties on architects at the time, although John Ruskin’s lecture “The Storm Cloud of the Nineteenth Century” (1884) is possibly the first public lecture explicitly hypothesizing anthropogenic climate change. This paper examines Ruskin’s later writings, the writings and architectural works of William Morris and the writings of other early members of SPAB including Thomas Hardy, to examine to what extent the “do-not-touch” model of conservation can be interpreted as an early reaction of alarm about climate change.

Abstract:
Restoration of built heritage can serve not only to preserve historical documents of the past but also to provide models for new sustainable architecture. Vernacular and, more generally, historic architecture is by its nature sustainabile and resilient. It is largely the result of experience and acquired knowledge, and shows how local resources can be used in a thoughtful and rational way in new construction. For this reason, it can inspire low-energy solutions necessary to address the current climate crisis. Conservation projects, in their turn, allow us to analyze the fabric of historic buildings, to understand which materials were used, how they were transformed and assembled, and how they offered the best response to the needs of use and resistance to the elements and natural hazards. In this paper, conservation of traditionaly-built architecture and new sustainable architecture are discussed as two partners pursuing the common goal of reducing the effects of climate change. The author investigates the way conservation and analysis of historic buildings allows us to interpret the complex and articulated reality of regional architecture. By retrieving the analysis of historic construction as a fundamental component for understanding architecture and adopting manual graphic records as a tool for expressing the complexity of the fabric of a building, it is possible to identify local building traditions and inspire new sustainable architecture.

Abstract:
This contribution aims to illustrate the author's research work within the research group HBIMSIG-Turismo at the Universitat Politècnica de València. The research between Rome and Valencia connects two investigative realities in different fields and locations through an exchange and collaboration. The investigation intends to define a digital methodology for recovering the knowledge emerging from restoration site interventions on “widespread” cultural heritage. Conservation interventions represent fundamental moments in the history of buildings as they allow for a direct understanding of the material reality of the asset. Therefore, preserving the memory of these interventions is crucial to ensuring thorough and updated knowledge of the heritage and for the virtuous management of future interventions on the asset. The illustrated case study is situated in the historic centre of the city of Rome, in the ancient Rione Parione. The protection of widespread private heritage is extremely complex in this tourist area. The interventions subject to archiving involve the external surfaces of two buildings that are part of a vast and varied heritage within the multi-layered historic city. The authors have defined an operational tab called the Restoration Site sheet to collect and share information related to these interventions. This digital database guides the user in filling it out. Sharing the research group's experience regarding the tourist management of the public space adjacent to the Cathedral of Valencia has enabled the integration of the digital Restoration Site sheet within a georeferenced GIS model. This work illustrates the methodology used to integrate geometric-spatial data into a semantic model (database) designed to meet a specific need: preserving the memory of conservation site interventions on cultural heritage.

Abstract:
Sgraffito is a historical decorative technique applied in walls. This decoration could be seen in different European cities or villages. Nowadays, this decoration technique is almost disappeared because of decomposition, inexperience or lack of knowledge. Moreover, the preservation and restoration of sgrafitto technique is the most challenging and important task of cultural heritage buildings’ preservation. Therefore, the preservation of sgraffito depends not only the historic and architectural knowledge, studies or conservation projects of the cultural heritage buildings, but also demands the experience, proper qualification and knowledge of contractor. This paper presents criteria set for selecting sgraffito techniques’ contractor of heritage buildings. The study determines methods, set of criteria for sgraffito technique’s contractor selection, overview of sets the assessment criteria of selecting contractor. The research applies the Analytic Hierarchy Process method (AHP), seeking to determine the critical criteria and to get the weighting for each criterion.

Abstract:
This contribution addresses the digital twin's shared data environment (CDE) role in Master Plans of Monumental Buildings. The essential objective is the preservation of immovable properties for future generations. Researchers in the cultural heritage field have used digital tools to document historic buildings and preserve them infinitely digitally. The question is whether the digital twin and its application can help achieve sustainable building and environment management.The primary document will always be the building itself. However, within conservation, restoration, or maintenance, it is necessary to have an extensive documentary archive where interventions are recorded. The older the monument, the greater the knowledge of the built element must be acquired before any intervention, which requires much time in previous research. Technological advancements and digital repositories make it easier to create digital platforms within Heritage Building Information Modelling (HBIM) because we work with historic buildings.The digital twin is a shared data environment and is a management and recovery tool for architectural heritage. To develop this work, it has been necessary to collaborate with expert stakeholders involved in the management of buildings throughout their life cycles.

Abstract:
Historic building restoration and renovation requires sensitivity to the cultural heritage, historic value, and sustainability (i.e., building physics, energy efficiency, and comfort) goals of the project. Heat recovery ventilation can contribute to the mentioned goals if ventilation concepts, and airflow distribution is planned and realized in a minimally invasive way. Compared to new buildings, the building physics of historic buildings are more complicated in terms of hygrothermal performance. In particular if internal insulation is applied, the need for dehumidification is needed for robust and risk-free future use, while maintaining the building’s cultural value. As each ventilation system has to be chosen and adapted individually to the specific building, the selection of the appropriate system type is not an easy task.
