Abstract (sommario):
In this thesis, the problem of the principles of new designs in historic built landscapes is discussed. In approaching the problem, a theoretical framework is developed and the general principles regarding new buildings in historic settings are derived from the theoretical context. Subsequently, the proposed principles is tried to be adapted to the case of Odunpazari historic urban fabric. Finally, a Youth Center for a specific Project Area in Odunpazari is proposed, and the integration of the proposal to the context is evaluated. The foremost aim of the thesis is proposing general principles concerning good architecture that continues and contributes to the spirit of place, and adapting them for a specific design problem in a specific place in order to evaluate the efficiency of the principles proposed. In developing the theoretical framework, it was discussed that, in determination of the principles for new designs, the historic built landscape should be handled in a way that resolves the network of relationships and allow the definition of the spirit of place. The methodology of understanding the spirit of place was established with reference to the approaches developed by Christopher Alexander and Christian Norberg-Schulz. According to the studies by these scholars, a triad layer system in resolving the spirit of place is developed. As named by Christian Norberg-Schulz, the layers of Gestalts, typologies and figures constituted the analytical framework leading to the resolution of the network of relationships between the components of a place. This model of analyzing and defining the spirit of place was found valuable, since it does not only focuses on the formal aspects of the historic built landscape, but also questions the main rules forming the unity and coherence of place. Odunpazari traditional urban fabric is selected as a case study, and its physical, historical, social and economical context is evaluated by the help of the literature and site surveys. Finally, a &

Abstract (sommario):
The retention of historic structures and the information which they contain, the basic goals of historic preservation, has occurred with increasing frequency in the twenty-year period following the passage of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966. Admittedly, the ideal scenario involves the retention and reuse of architecturally or historically important structures. However, occasionally notable buildings are found which are located upon sites earmarked for new construction or which have deteriorated to a condition which makes restoration or adaptive reuse not economically feasible. Adequate documentation prior to the destruction of such buildings not only preserves the information therein contained, but also may encourage reuse of some structures by making the owner aware of their contribution to the streetscape, to local history or to the architectural history of a community or region.Although parameters for adequate documentation exist at the national level for national landmarks, state and local standards are vague at best, leaving both the professional and the non-professional preservationist to determine the level of documentation and the amount of research required. Difficult at best for the professional, documentation in the absence of guidelines frequently proves disastrous for the non-professional.This thesis is the product of a documentation project conducted between September 1984 and October 1985 to provide "adequate documentation" for a client of the College of Architecture and Planning at Ball State University, Muncie, Indiana. Having no established guidelines or precedent to follow, and instructed to produce "adequate documentation" for 28 structures at six Indiana State Hospitals, the documentation team learned much during the fourteen-month process of producing both written and graphic documentation.The author presents this descriptive analysis of one component of the documentation process - the preparation of the 331-page written text which accompanied photographs and H.A.B.S. drawings. While each project differs, the Indiana State Hospital Project established a precedent which may be referred to By the C.A.P. when faced with similar projects in the future.

Reutilization means to change the original purposes or the process of lasting reuse function in architecture’s life cycle. The purpose is to prevent historical buildings from destroy or leave unused. The project of historical buildings’ reutilization often cooperates by teams from different background to design its processes. Though different participants exchange large designing data and communicate to obtain coordination and consistency in designing results. Therefore, the key factor of the project success is depend on process design and the way of communicate. This study focuses on optimizing and improving the interactions among design activities of historic building renovation as well as establishing and verifying scheduling system analysis and modules. We tried to understand the steps taken by consultants during the design and planning process of historic building renovation through literatures and break down the processes according to Design Structure Matrix. By combining matrix and traditional tear method, we reduce mutual coupling in process design and offer problem solving that may occur. We use analysis model in practical cases to confirm the capable of process redesign, in order to achieve the purpose.

Historic buildings still prevalent considerable potential fire risk factors, if fire is weak when encountering monuments Vulcan, the consequences often cause significant losses of cultural assets, the relative importance of fire safety. Since the destruction of the fire damage is a comprehensive, some monument or historical building materials used in wood, bamboo and so less able to build a fire retardant material, if in the event of fire damage, prone to rage out of control hazards. Fire load is about the duration of the fire and the fire temperature an important factor to predict the actual fire behavior must grasp its value. In the building when the fire resistance design fire load is growing spread of fire prevention, fire resistance of building structures and building a fire inspection certificate to avoid security verification inspection, although the basic parameters. Also today historic buildings to use or reuse as much exhibition space for public use mostly, which is apt to cause fire damage deposit of combustible materials piled their way with the growth speed of the fire, so the fire hazard control, and we must first understand the monuments and historic buildings constructed of material itself, and then discusses the fire load in storage methods. In this study, the fire load capacity of the databases established, future in the Japanese-style wooden structure monuments and historic buildings fire protection design, providing Enter building combustible fire load capacity density or heat release rate to predict various fire Behavior basic parameters, such as the time of the fire continued, suggesting that the fire temperature and so on.

Many of Taiwan’s historic buildings and blocks have slowly developed and become new landmarks. After an interview with a gourmet show or a tourist program,a large number of people come to visit these blocks during holidays. The original narrow streets become new gathering points because of the gathering business. We should understand what the current risk factors are, and put forward the solution to solve these risk factors. Avoiding risk factors cause harm to tourists’ personal safety when a fire rescue case or an emergency medical service is occurred. This study will be able to identify multiple risk factors that threaten the Hukou Township historic buildings and blocks by reviewing and analyzing the fire cases located at historical buildings and blocks. This study adopted literature review methods,case analysis methods, expert interview methods, questionnaire survey methods, the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and other research methods to find out risk factors and develop the solving solution, and be provided as a reference for fire rescue authorities or relevant units to make the fire rescue, emergency medical service and personnel evacuation strategies. With a view to make a fast and correct response to the disasters, and increase the probability of evacuation effectively both for residents and tourists. The hierarchical structure of improvement plan of risk factors in the Hukou historic buildings and blocks was developed in this study, and contains 5 goals, 13 criteria, and 3 candidate improvement plans. The questionnaire survey was conducted of six fire brigades and summarized the weights of the basic goals and candidate plans through analytic hierarchical analysis. According to the statistics, we know the order of goals, which are funds (weight value:0.48 ), executive manpower (weight value:0.24 ),iii execution time (weight value:0.13 ), efficiency achievement (weight value:0.08 ), and advanced concept of disaster prevention (weight value:0.05 ), and the order of improvement plans, which are conducting regular fire drills and inspections by fire departments (integration weights:0.57), installing residential fire detectors in households located on historical streets (Integrated Weights:0.28), and promoting education and training for self-government committees in the business district (general weight:0.13) In conclusion, the best improvement plan of risk factors in the Hukou historic buildings and blocks is conducting regular fire drills and inspections by fire departments.

Historic sites and historical buildings are the crystals of artistic wisdom in history; they record the architectural styles and culture of the time. Once a fire occurs and it is not controlled immediately, the structures would be destroyed, seriously damaging the cultural and historical values. Thus, fire prevention in historical buildings is an important issue. This study collected the documents from 1853 to 2013 to discuss the fire causes. The results indicated that arson accounts for 33.33%, negligence of fire use accounts for 28.21%, electrical fire accounts for 20.51%, unknown cause accounts for 12.82%, and negligence in construction accounts for 2.56%. The conservation of historic sites and historical buildings should be accomplished by a reasonable and feasible fire prevention system. According to the discussion on the fire prevention management system, the historic sites and historical buildings are not outside of the applicable scope of the Fire Act, as indicated in the Cultural Assets Preservation Act. The fire prevention management should contain fire prevention concept and appropriate fire prevention management strategies. In order to detect fire early, an automatic notification mechanism needs to be adopted, while arson prevention, training on fire prevention and electrical equipment use should be provided for workers, and fire-fighting drills should be held regularly. The cultural management units should supervise the fire prevention management system, plan response strategies for disasters, evaluate fire risks of historic sites periodically, and combine the strategies of self-service, joint-service and public-service. The fire prevention plan should be performed by Plan, Do, Check and Act, so as to upgrade the fire safety level of historic sites and historical buildings. The case protection prospectus and fire prevention management strategy are made based on the concept of "management first and quick notification". The fire risk assessment method of this study refers to the results of Shen-Wen Chien , who used point planning method, and Chihkan Tower was treated as the research target. Although the evaluation result is of Class A (good), there are still some potential fire risk factors, such as fire prevention drill not meeting the fire scene, no broadcast system, and nighttime notification. The above problems are also the emphases on other historic sites and historical buildings in Taiwan.

In 1982, the Council for Cultural Affairs established "Cultural Heritage Preservation Act", which designates or registers architectural works with history and cultural value as monuments and historic buildings in order to make the next generation continuously understand the history by visiting them. However, there are many monuments and historic buildings which are not immediately preserved and maintained after designated or registered. Improper methods also lead monuments and historical buildings to lose the original appearance, or even to be damaged. Therefore, it is required that any of the monuments and historic buildings need to have an intact project of management and maintenance of monuments and historic buildings. Yongjing Wei Chengmei ancestral hall is the only one that was totally invested by owner to repair in Changhua. In 2004, it was praised by monument expert Li QianLang as "Taiwan's twenty folk ancient buildings". Afterward, Yongjing Wei Chengmei ancestral hall was registered as a historic building by Changhua county government on 2008. The structure is combined with many different construction materials. Therefore, the regular maintenance and preservation of the buildings rely on experts from different fields to propose a comprehensive project of management and maintenance. This study is expected to understand the advantages and disadvantages in project of the management and maintenance of and historic buildings, which has a great resource, to understand the problems of the management and maintenance in Taiwan, and to make suggestions.

Neighborhoods in space and time course of development, constitute the overall structure of space blocks. With social change, the station hub, transfer under the regime shift, changing the neighborhood lifestyle. Due to changes in the factors affecting the neighborhood, along with the historical development are constantly changing, so the block patterns and spatial characteristics of the transition, but also forever without stopping. Therefore, neighborhood context, to describe the development process and qualifications neighborhoods change, description block patterns change, the type of neighborhood commercial space, relevance, impact ... and other stations that constitute the elements of this research. At the time of this study since the Japanese colonial period, starting in 1919, in Taipei elementary school built in neighborhoods where the development of qualification process, until the period of Contemporary Art Taipei (2013), to understand spatial and temporal changes of the next block business transformation, develop relationships. Context where development through neighborhoods built during the Japanese colonial elementary school to discuss the future development of street space. Taipei City Government since 1994 to migrate from the site of Chang''an Road, Xinyi District, the Old City and the surrounding areas change the nature of street blocks, Taipei City Government is taking the old shops and street blocks opposite sides of nature in different periods, for comparison. This article will block where the old Taipei City Government is divided into three stages, namely to explore Chang''an Road and its surrounding neighborhood context, nature and space show street blocks. The first phase, from 1919 to the war, nine Zhongshan North Road Taipei pass, the big Japanese Street residence in a large, mainly with the Japanese demand, set "unusual elementary school built," practical measures to distinguish between the Japanese Unlike Taiwanese schools, there are large positive stops, employment agencies, and other official buildings market, the neighborhoods where street blocks belong to the Catholic and official residences. The second "Taipei City Government" phase (1946 to 1994), was the location of the administrative center of the Taipei City Government, the Japanese colonial period, the official establishment of an employment agency, to Taipei City Health Bureau, the market has the fourth floor of Taipei Chang''an City Library Branch, a municipal data collection, aside Taisho stops has been spent. Across from City Hall opened shop about various business matters, making the original business functions, and is the administrative center of the nature of neighborhoods. Taipei City Government from 1994 to 2012 to the third stage of the migration Xinyi District, Taipei City Health Bureau to disability benefits Hall, Chang''an Branch possession with the city''s municipal data also relocated, the old city near the transactional stores, such as typing, printing, scrivener, engraving, etc., will therefore go out of business, Chang''an Road shops Depression up empty mall into a recession. With the Taipei MRT Danshui Line opened in 1997, Museum of Contemporary Art opened in 2001, expanded the culture of governance, which features as Historic preservation and adaptive reuse, as well as the Museum of Contemporary Art in association with public transit linear park arts festivals. At this stage, the cultural industry to promote economic development and to link space and activities important rallying point for the city, showing local prosperity impetus. Block patterns from the original administrative center and official sites of color into the nature of tourism and recreation. This study carried out in accordance with the surrounding shops three periods analyzed with descriptive statistics comparison, the Japanese colonial period (c. 1922) located at the periphery of the Catholic elementary school built in the location of the local administrative center, due to significantly enhance political status, urban correction release program, and its surrounding residential related to official residences or shops based. After migration Taipei City Government (1994 to 2001), due to the progress of convenient transportation and transport routes, after the opening of freshwater MRT Zhongshan Station, bringing crowds and commercial activities. To the Museum of Contemporary Art Taipei period (2001 to date), the surrounding neighborhoods and positioning functions mature, their lifestyles to improve their lives and the surrounding recreation-related shops ratio. Displayed in the monument after activation and re-use the original MRT led the crowd outside, street patterns and the administrative center of the Catholic official color of the original site of the old city into a tourism and recreation features.

The case of this research was focus on Fu-Jong-Tang House which was analyzed the Historical Buildings Re-used value by dilemma, decision making models and recycled of building the community value.       The research methods in this case adopted literature reviews, interviews and evaluation. Firstly, we reviewed the literature of Historical Buildings, and reinforced the theory. Secondly, interview. People who have attended the architecture reconstruction were assembled together conducting an In-depth Interview. Finally, using the assessment from Council of Culture Affairs verified and concluded the research.       An Hundred years construction was easy degenerating. However, reservation, repair, huge expense and people with passion mind are truly indispensible. From the development of Fu-Jong-Tang House, we found that collaborative value of native people was the key factor and government culture policy and budget supported for Historical Buildings reservations. The conclusions were as following: 1. The Historical Buildings Re-used still had “The law system is incomplete ” and “The skilled manpower resources are insufficient” and so on two big difficult positions. 2. Fu-Jong-Tang House reconstructs when unifies the multiplex transport business pattern which the government and the community resources invest and continue forever to develop to sufficiently reference. 3. The Historical Buildings Re-used for the place culture space, may strengthen community value building again, then had the condensation society still to unify the community the life, to need by the area, and the thorough community entered resources excavation, environment work and so on improvement, could condense the value to take root for a long time.

According to Historic Building Conservation Laws, the historical site once had been assigned, its historical architectural feature should be maintained and its land development should be restricted. Due to the thinking way of Reservation of Historical Site changing recently, the Re-Usage becomes one of the approaches to reserve the Historical Sites. Public Sector had proposed and amended some cultural asset management related laws and regulations in order to reduce its financial and wage loading to the employee. By the outsourcing strategy, Private Sectors have expected to manage the historical Site in a more efficient way. The participation of management of Historical Site Re-Usage by private sectors was highly inspired in order to create new feature of sites. Any new functions introduced from re-usage should not against the original meanings of designation of historical site. Some examples which according to policies of public sectors were queried about it have no relations to its historical content and meanings. The SPOT-Taipei Film House was transformed form the consultancy of USA-Taipei. The Guling Street Avant-Garde Theatre was transformed from Zhongzheng Second Police District. The above examples were come from the policy of Re-Usage of space by the public sectors. However, the examples had messed the reasons of designation of historic site and confused the audience a lot. The study will focus on the examples that were outsourcing for managing of Re-Usage of government owned Historic Sites. It will compare the use function and the impact of publicity by before and after outsourcing. It will also through the reasons of designation and public service to inspect the differences between normal audience and professional persons. The assessment of space density will be addressing which base on the principal of designation of historic site in order to guide the directions of future study and usage.

Abstract (sommario):
Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI)
The landscape of James A. Garfield’s Mentor, Ohio home (now preserved at James A. Garfield National Historic Site) contains multiple layers of historical meanings and values. The landscape as portrayed in political biographies, political cartoons, and other ephemera during Garfield’s 1880 presidential campaign reveals the existence of the dual cultural values of agrarian tradition and agricultural progress in the late nineteenth century. Although Garfield did not depend on farming exclusively for his livelihood, he, like many agriculturalists of this era participated in a process of mediation between these dual values. The function of the landscape of Garfield’s farm between 1876 and 1880 is a reflection of this process of mediation. After President Garfield’s assassination in 1881, his wife and children returned to their Mentor home. Between 1885 and c. 1905, Garfield’s widow Lucretia made numerous changes to the agricultural landscape, facilitating the evolution of the home from farm to country estate. Despite the rich history of this landscape, its cultural complexity and evolution over time makes it difficult to interpret for public audiences. Additionally, the landscape is currently interpreted exclusively through indoor museum exhibits and outdoor wayside panels, two formats with severe limitations. I propose the integration of deep mapping into interpretation at James A. Garfield National historic site in order to more effectively represent the multi-layered qualities of its historic landscape.
