Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue of “Heritage” aims to collect original and high-quality research papers, reviews and technical notes related to the conservation of architectural and archaeological heritage in geographically different, but culturally quite similar, contexts, such as Italy, Spain and Central and South America.
The aim is to compare these contexts, allowing a fruitful exchange of experiences and attitudes, both theoretical and practical, in order to generate new collaborations towards the preservation and valorization of architectural and archaeological heritage; a goal which is the very reason for the existence of the Federación Internacional de Centros CICOP (https://www.federacioncicop.org/congresos-cicop).
This Special Issue will cover a wide range of topics related to the protection of such contexts, with particular reference to issues concerning historical and technical investigations of architectural and cultural heritage.
Contributions are invited on the following topics:
- Historic surveys of historical buildings;
- Representation techniques for historical architecture;
- Project techniques for the conservation and management of architectural and archaeological heritage;
- Technical interventions on historical architectural materials.
