Architectural heritage is now recognised to be of great importance to the historical identity. In order to take care of the architectural heritage of a region, town or nation, now recognised as of great importance to their historical identify, we need to share experiences and knowledge regarding heritage preservation in many parts of the world. Covering advances in this field presented at the thirteenth in a series of now-biennial conferences that began in 1989, this book covers such topics as: Heritage Architecture and Historical Aspects; Assessment and Re-use; Performance and Maintenance; Simulation and Modelling; Modern (19th/20th Century) Heritage; Seismic Vulnerability; Material Characterization; Heritage Masonry; Earth Construction; Wooden Structures; Guidelines, Codes and Regulations for Heritage; Defence Heritage.
