Résumé :
The thesis examines building conservation philosophy, as it is commonly known in this field of activity. The thesis explores the perceived problems between philosophy and practice that are present in building conservation. The overall purpose being to shed light on the relationship between philosophy, theory and practice for the benefit of practitioners. The thesis has focused on the theoretical and philosophical side of the question as well as the practical. This will explain the type of data and analysis that was used. The thesis begins by establishing that there is a perceived problem between philosophy and practice in building conservation, and shows why this is practically important. The thesis then deals with the theoretical background of the work, showing the viewpoint from which the researcher has looked at the issues. The methodology of research is then shown with the emphasis being on the research methods that will yield truth. The main body of the thesis then deals with the data and analysis. The foci being the theory of William Morris and the early development of conservation philosophy, then a look at practical repair advice in building conservation, after that a look at the perceptions of conservation practitioners and the casework of conservation organisations, following this a look at the application of conservation philosophy to conservation policy such as PPG 15 and planning, the relationship of sustainability and conservation philosophy is also explored. Finally, the philosophy of Dooyeweerd is applied to the field to see whether the perceived problems of conservation philosophy can be helped by the application of his scientific philosophy. The conclusions at the end of the thesis draw together the analysis and show the contribution to knowledge.

Résumé :
Heritage conservation has become mainstream practice as conservation professionals discover that so many aging heritage buildings require engineering solutions. This project prepares engineers and heritage practitioners to face this challenge and makes a major step forward by developing a model for a maintenance-focused conservation management of heritage buildings. The thesis examines how the current practices of demolition, reconstruction and destructive repairs would benefit from shifting to a more conservative maintenance approach. Using the important elements of this model; tools and technology, market creation, training and licensing, a workable heritage conservation management plan can be applied to Australia's precious heritage buildings.

Résumé :
Previous research has been carried out concerning the conservation of both historic buildings and library and archive collections. Little work has, however, been undertaken to look at the interface between the two. The following research has been carried out in the context of an interdisciplinary project linking key disciplines in an examination of the issues relating to conservation problems in historic buildings used for library and archive purposes. This thesis presents a comprehensive literature review, evaluating published data on both the preservation of paper-based collections in libraries and archives, and preventive conservation of historic buildings and monuments. Emphasis is given to the interface between the two. Furthermore, a survey of British archives and libraries has been carried out, including the evaluation of questionnaire and site data. The survey focuses on preventive conservation measures as well as past and present problems of dampness. This survey proved problems with dampness to be often misdiagnosed and the consequences of damage underestimated. From the surveyed collections, two case studies have been selected for environmental monitoring in order to investigate macro- and micro-climates under different environmental conditions. Resulting data suggest that the micro-environment of a confined space is influenced by the amount of paper housed within it. This has assisted in explaining the interaction between paper and the immediate environment. At the same time, data has confirmed that the overall surface area of paper available for environmental interaction is more important than paper type or book size, with respect to the overall conditions within the storage space. Although degradation mechanisms of paper with respect to cycling conditions are not entirely clear, results of this study emphasise the importance of ventilation and dehumidification in order to avoid mould germination and/or growth. The data have been used to determine whether the internal environment of enclosed bookcases, and hence the immediate environment of the collection, can be adequately predicted from ambient data taken within the room. Mathematical models have been developed for both metal and wooden bookcases, and have shown that even when the ambient conditions are unstable, the relationship between ambient RH and the RH inside a book in an enclosed bookcase can be predicted within a 5% margin (1% for a stable environment).

Texte intégral
Résumé :
Sustainable development is promoted as a means to address climate change impacts and sustainable design is believed to have a strong role in determining the operational performance of housing. However, in relation to residential housing, these assertions have been largely untested by academic research and occupant impacts are not often considered alongside design influences. Consequentially, the present study aimed to investigate whether sustainably designed housing actually has less impact on the environment and the extent to which occupant attitudes play a role in any reduction, for technical and non-technical factors. The study was able to compare 75 houses drawn from a conventional housing estate and a sustainability-focused residential community. The latter community imposed strict environmental building codes. The conventional housing community, which was designed using contemporary methods, did not preference or require the application of sustainable design principles and was used as the “control group”. The houses within the second estate (the “study group”) employed a high level of sustainable design principles, including solar energy, intentional building orientation, natural ventilation, no air conditioning, recycled materials, reduced indoor environment toxicity and solar passive design. Utility consumption data and surveys were used to gather the data in early 2011. The “study group” houses were found to use 75 per cent less net energy (5.7kWh per day) compared with the “control group” of conventional homes. Interestingly, the water consumption for both types of housing was found to be very similar, although the study group had implemented its own internal rainwater capture and recycling system, which uses no water from the central town water system. It was hypothesised that among the variables studied, multiple regression analysis showed that the number of occupants and then a house’s sustainable design, influenced energy consumption the most, suggesting that sustainable design of a house is a key factor in reducing household utility use. In contrast, environmental attitudes and the size of the house, explained less than one per cent of the variance in energy use, further highlighting the value of sustainable design attributes in terms of operational energy reduction. The results also suggested that the sustainable design of a house is twice as likely to reduce its energy consumption compared with the influence of pro-environmental attitudes. The survey results revealed that higher levels of attitudes favourable to environmental conservation correlated with lower energy use, but attitudes were not found to offer any statistically significant independent prediction of energy use when analysed with other predictor variables present. Similarly, the results were not able to demonstrate that environment-based attitudes and behaviours contributed significantly to lower energy use, when other demographic housing design factors had already been taken into account. In conclusion, the study suggests that stronger prioritisation of the sustainable design attributes in housing will significantly reduce anthropogenic environmental impact. Similarly, it appears possible to undertake such actions without impacting occupant well-being.

Résumé :
As a city that has played an important part in the industrialization process of the country, Wuxi owns many abandoned and dilapidated industrial plants in the inner city. The successful conservation cases of Shanghai’s industrial heritages really enlightened the Wuxi Municipal Government, which was also searching for ways to push forward economic restructuring while facing a land shortage in the city. Founded in 1919 by the well-known Chinese entrepreneurs the Rong brothers, the original No.3 Shenxin Factory used to be the biggest spinnery manufacturer in Wuxi. Then, in 2005, as the factory was transferred to industrial estate in suburban area, the original site became abandoned. Two years later, the original factory site was listed as industrial heritage of Wuxi and leased to the Hong Kong developer SPGland at the same time. The urban redevelopment project of Xi Shui Dong Factory (former No.3 Shenxin Factory) started in 2008. Kokaistudios was appointed by SPGland to lead the architectural conservation part. As a typical property developer-led conservation project in the heart of a redevelopment area including a number of high density residential towers and commercial centres, the Xi Shui Dong Factory project offers a challenge to the designers. The problem is which approach of conservation they should take and how they should deal with the relationship between the old buildings and the newly built ones. The dissertation focuses on the detailed study of a factory complex in the site and tries to analyze issues concerning the conservation of the factory complex in the context of the urban regeneration. At the same time it also brings to light the relative merits between property developer-led and culture-led conservation efforts.

The Hunza Valley, a remote area of mountainous northern Pakistan, is undergoing rapid change culturally, socially, and architecturally. Many of these changes are linked to the exchange of information and commerce facilitated by the Karakoram Highway. This highway, completed in 1974, has allowed a culture and lifestyle dating back many of hundreds of years to be influenced by lower Pakistan and western cultures. Architecturally, these changes have led to the use of new, non-traditional, building material (concrete block and window glass) and new building designs which are climatically inappropriate and more consistent with the mild climate of lower Pakistan. This study examines these changes from an energy perspective in the homes and schools in and around Karimabad, a central village in the Hunza Valley. To assess baseline energy consumption, recorded indoor and outdoor temperature data for three homes and two schools were analyzed. These data were used with a steady state energy model to assess and compare energy consumption of a traditional and a modem home and assess energy conservation measures and design changes. The results showed a 30 percent reduction in heat loss in the traditional home compared to the modem home. This reduction is mostly due to the higher wall and roof thermal resistance values of the traditional home. Further insulation of the walls in both home types is recommended. In the case of the modem homes adding R-5 of rigid foam insulation is estimated to reduce heat loss by 46 percent, over the base case modem home, with a simple payback of 3.8 years. The use of windows is recommended on the south facing facade netting a simple payback of 3.9 years and the use of buried walls (into the north slope) and shared walls (cluster housing) were each estimated to save 17 percent over the standard modem home. Indigenous insulations were researched for use in homes and schools. Sawdust and straw were found to be the most practical and were used with a gluebinder to make 1.5"x 15"x 25" panels. These panels were tested in a flat screen thermal conductivity tester specifically built and calibrated for this study. The measured thermal resistance values were R-2.89/inch (+ /- 9.7 %) for the ...

Texte intégral
Résumé :
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.

Résumé :
The Earth's health is deteriorating and will deteriorate even more rapidly unless people adopt eco-friendly policies. Green building has long been a concept but it has not yet been universally applied in practice. The concept of sustainability emerged in the 1970s and can be associated with the energy crisis and environmental pollution concerns. This research is aimed at investigating whether building “green” is more demanding than non-green buildings in terms of cost and the use of green materials against traditional materials; whether professionals in the construction industry are knowledgeable in terms of green buildings; and lastly, to determine whether green buildings are contributing significantly to the environment. The literature reviewed and results of quantitative research amongst professionals from the Island of Mauritius formed the basis of the study. The study revealed that green building is expensive relative to traditional buildings considering. However, the concepts employed (for example: lower energy use, less waste disposal, lower water usage, and sustainable design) provide green buildings with long term savings. Furthermore, the scarcity of natural materials makes it expensive. The study also showed that contractors and professionals have a preference for traditional materials over green materials thus making them more familiar with traditional materials. Contractors and professionals are believed to understand green materials only on a limited basis. This may be attributed to the specific environmental issues involved; however, the research revealed that the professionals are familiar with the basic concepts of green buildings. Lastly, the research showed that green building is still at its infancy but the benefits of green buildings are understood; resulting in green buildings having a good growth potential. The study should be valuable to construction industry professional and clients.

Texte intégral
Résumé :
This piece of work analyses the existing condition of the Brazilian. architectural heritage, focusing especially on the historic cities. In order to make it possible, the study first of all analyses the Brazilian historical background with the purpose of establishing a relationship between the circumstances and conditions in which these cities were created. Initially, the scenery of the landscape, the geographical aspects of nature, the climate and the people who converged on this New World in South America, thus initiating the Brazilian diversity of culture and behaviour, are considered. Historical, political, social, and financial factors which were involved in the construction of these cities are also shown in order to facilitate the understanding of their character and meaning. The aim of this study is to analyse aspects of the conservation of listed buildings in these special areas known as historic cities. In order to evaluate the extent of the problem, and because the Brazilian official institution which is responsible for the care of the heritage is supported by the government, specific situations occurring in different regions will be shown. The legislation related to the protection of the listed artefacts in which are included listed buildings and also urban areas is analysed in its application and results. This study takes into account the most important concentration of historic cities in Brazil, which were constructed in the eighteenth century, in the state of Minas Gerais, and then, describes the in-depth research conducted in one of these special cities - Mariana - in order to provide data and arguments for the evaluation of the protection of the historic cities in Brazil. Looking initially at the whole of the Brazilian architectural heritage values, and then focusing on a special area in order to study and evaluate rules and schemes concerning the protection and conservation of the historic cities, this research aims to find a methodology for the restoration and conservation of those cities as a whole.

Résumé :
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.
